Scheduled requirements for a sales contract

To use a simplified sales schedule, you can define scheduled deliveries based on a sales contract. You can use this process if you do not receive schedules from your sold-to business partners, and you want to set up a list of time-phased deliveries using a sales contract.

You can specify scheduled requirements for a sales contract using delivery schemes or sales schedules.
