Purpose

Create an alternate delivery date when a customer’s normal route delivery falls on a holiday.

Overview

Use Fleet Delivery Route Holiday Maintenance to set up holiday routes for use with an in-house delivery system. If your company uses an in house fleet delivery system, sometimes a route’s normal delivery date(s) fall on a holiday. Typically, routes need to be re-scheduled to the day before or after this holiday. In Order Entry, if the initial required date is a defined holiday date, the required date will automatically be changed to the alternate delivery date.
