When calculating the ship date on an SO, MAS500 bases this off of the Request Date - Avg Ship Days value for the customer address assigned as the ship to address (except for drop ship).
Since this logic does not allow for the exclusion of specific relative days of the week (Saturday or Sunday), or specific absolute holiday dates, it is possible for the SO to be assigned a ship date when the business is closed and thus there is a chance we would miss the request date.
MAS500 would greatly benefit from having a place where business days and holidays are defined. The logic could then use these settings to exclude certain dates in places where it auto-calculates dates. This functionality could also warn users if they pick a ship date manually what occurs on an excluded day.

We had a calendar on our previous system where we blacked out days we didnt want to ship
