ATP shows purchase order receipts as available the day of receipt, but for some companies the receipts are usually not ready the day of arrival. It would be great to have ATP take into account the Receipt margin. Currently master planning takes into account receipt margin, but ATP dates do not.
Issue margin is not ideal because it adds a margin to all supply, not only to purchase orders.

Yes this is really needed. Specially for sales orders where customers can pick up items at central warehouse. Then PO with confirmed date = today will show as ATP = today. But in real lift the item arrival might happen later during the day and the ATP should be today + receipt margin.
Issue margin can not be used since this will also add an extra day to the ATP when items are on hand and this is not wanted, since we wan't to be able to provide todays date in that case.
Also - if a receipt margin could be added to on hand on a specific location it would solve the PO is received in Inbound location, but not yes put away, which means the items are not ready for pick yet and then should'nt be available just yet.
