Ship Date*

The date the product is scheduled for transport to the customer. The system displays the earliest possible shipment date for your item. If the entire quantity of the item is not available for one shipment, the system splits the ship quantity over more than one shipment date.

Next to each ship date, the system displays the number of days separating it from the date you entered as your order ship date. If the dates are the same, TODAY displays.

The order status of the selected item, based on its current generation.

If the item quantity is split over multiple ship dates, each ship date can have a different backorder status code.
