Safety Lead Time Field, Purchase Line Table
Specifies a date formula, which is used as a buffer period in case of delays in the purchase replenishment lead time. When calculating order and order proposal lines, the program will add the safety lead time to the lead time. This is true for forward and backward scheduled orders. The specific date fields that are affected on the purchase order (or order proposal) line are as follows:
Planned Receipt Date + Safety Lead Time + Inbound Warehouse Handling Time = Expected Receipt Date.
Note that the program copies the field from the Stockkeeping Unit card, if one exists, or else the Item card.
