What DELFOR and DELJIT are
DELFOR (Delivery Forecast) and DELJIT (Delivery Just In Time) are EDIFACT messages used for delivery planning in continuous-production supply chains, especially automotive.
- DELFOR - medium/long-term forecast (e.g. weekly/monthly requirements), for the supplier's production planning
- DELJIT - short-term delivery call, exactly what and when, synced to the production line (JIT)
Why they differ from ORDERS
Unlike a classic order (ORDERS), these messages communicate rolling requirements updated periodically. The supplier delivers based on the schedule, not discrete orders - a typical automotive OEM model.
How CRMconnect helps
CRMconnect interprets DELFOR/DELJIT and turns them into production and delivery plans in your system, syncing stock and shipments with the customer's JIT calls - essential for automotive and manufacturing suppliers.
Πραγματικό παράδειγμα

Difference between DELFOR and DELJIT?+
DELFOR is a medium/long-term forecast used for production planning. DELJIT is the concrete short-term delivery call (Just In Time) that triggers the actual shipment synced to the customer's line.
Who uses these messages?+
Predominantly automotive and other production chains with JIT/JIS supply. The model is 'rolling planning' instead of discrete orders - the supplier delivers based on updated forecasts.

After delivering on a DELJIT, you send a DESADV (ASN) announcing the concrete shipment. DELFOR/DELJIT plan; DESADV confirms the actual shipment.
