Generally, you agree to a delivery time with a supplier for a particular product. You then enter this in Optiply so that the tool can calculate the order agenda. Enter the agreed delivery time under the 'Suppliers' β 'Lead Time' (days) tab.
Next to this column, you see the 'Average Lead Time (days)'. This is measured based on your Warehouse Management System (W.M.S.). Optiply then looks at when the order was ordered and when it was booked. The average period between this is the measured delivery time.
The measured delivery time may differ from the manually entered delivery time. An early or delayed delivery causes this.
Note: No measured delivery time may be displayed. This is only the case when Optiply has not yet registered enough deliveries. Only from 10 deliveries will a measured delivery time be displayed.
