Description
A deduction (or violation, if it is still in it's 2 week exemption window) for an order that has either arrived late, in the case of prepaid, or was picked up late in the case of pickup/collect orders.
Target may provide additional detail such as the following sub-classifications:

SupplyPike's app will group these all as On Time - Late, however, the details of each deduction will show you which of the sub-classifications may be present.

How to dispute invalid On Time - Late deductions
These deductions are disputed through Synergy, just like most other Target deductions. If you're still at the violation stage within the 2 week exemption window, the contact form at the bottom of each POL page can be used to request an exemption.

Email communication with Target that acknowledged ahead of time an order might be late somehow. Some possible reasons to lookout for:
Lead time issues
Order point setup issues
Target requested delivery outside of acceptable window
Ryder or Docklink appointment pushout (Target DC capacity constraints, holiday closures, scheduling errors, receiving time restrictions, WDS load leveling constraints in case of prepaid)
Target DC capacity constraints
Target did not respond in timely manner to item setup issue that was proactively called out
Supplier requested window/SDA date adjustment and the email was sent prior to routing/scheduling, Target did not execute or executed incorrectly
Carrier requests appointment outside of original requested date, Target accepts and initiates adjustments to requested date
Holiday ship window errors that were proactively communicated to Target
