Order Entry Warning for Non-Work Days for ShipBy or NeedBy in Classic

I have Site Configuration set to ‘Warn’ on Invalid ShipBy (or NeedBy) Date in the Shipping Calendar section, where ‘invalid’ = non-work days in the sites shipping calendar. (Note: this is visible only in Kinetic site configuration, not classic.)

This works well in Kinetic Order Entry, providing a warning slider when someone tries to schedule an SO release for a weekend date. But in Classic, the user does not get a warning, and it can cause problems with later trying to change or even delete releases, when ShipBy or NeedBy is set on a weekend (i.e., non-work) day.

Doing a trace, I do see that in the response there is this:

<returnValues>
    <returnParameter name="cShipByDateMessage" type="System.String"><![CDATA[The chosen Ship By date is a non-working day. Would you like to continue?]]></returnParameter>

Is there a way I can leverage this in a BPM to present a popup to the user in Classic? This also brings up the question: how can I tell within a BPM if the user is using Kinetic or Classic client?

Well, I’m not too sure on the first part…

But, the below thread may help with the second part of your question:
