How to track release quantities and balances for split round bar deliveries
For split deliveries, record each planned delivery quantity, requested arrival window and remaining balance by purchase order line. Keep requested and confirmed dates in separate fields so changes can be tracked.
Break the order total into a delivery plan you can reconcile
Use the same unit for the order total, each planned delivery, received quantity and outstanding balance. Suppose one order line is for 100 bars, with 40 planned for the first delivery and 60 for the next. If the first receipt confirms 38 bars, the outstanding balance is 62. Record whether the shortfall of two bars should move into the next delivery and ask the supplier to confirm.
Record each change to the delivery plan
A delivery schedule can record the order line, delivery sequence, planned and received quantities, requested and confirmed arrival windows, and open points. When a date or quantity changes, identify the affected order line and delivery, update the balance and check whether split transport charges or delivery terms change.
Send the delivery plan and check labels and documents
Attach the specifications, total quantity, requested quantity per delivery and arrival windows using the website enquiry form. The sales team confirms whether split delivery is feasible and agrees charges and arrangements for the request. See the related guide for matching material lot labels with documents at receipt. https://yzxmetals.com/news/yzx-lot-identification/en/
