3227234 - Routes Created Based on Route Template are not Working

Symptom

You have created a Route Template to schedule visits only on working days but the Routes created based on it are not following the template accordingly.

Environment

 SAP Cloud for Customer

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Go to the Visits workcenter.
  2. Go to the Routes view.
  3. Click New -> type: Template.
  4. Edit the template as followed: no visits on weekends, select as many visits as you want.
  5. Save and open.
  6. Activate the template.
  7. Actions > Create Route from Template.
  8. The new Route is not following correctly the pattern for the visits, scheduling visits on unexpected days. 

Cause

The system considers the calendar days for scheduling visits, regardless of the settings stablished in the Business Configuration (Calendar). Whenever a Visit day lands on a weekend, the system will automatically reschedule it for Monday, the first working day of the week.

Resolution

You'll have to manually change the visits. This is the current system behavior in the current release of SAP Cloud for Customer.
