You use the Deliveries Maintenance program to query and maintain details of release quantities that have been delivered to and received by the customer.
This is a sensitive program and we recommend that only senior personnel use it to view and optionally add or change the delivery position for a release master.
Changes implemented in this program are considered when the balancing routine of the Blanket SO and Releases Review and Confirmation is next run.
