Delivery Group (Complete delivery)

Question
Complete delivery: e.g SO has two lines, for first item 'ABC' delivery date is 01-Jul and for sec item 'DEF' delivery date is 11-Jul. And del job VL04 runs daily. So my req is when VL04 runs on 01-Jul, del should not be created, but it should create a complete delivery on 11-Jul.

Hi Deepak,

In the above question we have to use the logic of delivery group under shipping tab in the sales order. The system uses delivery groups to check the availability of items that should be delivered together. The delivery date of the latest schedule line in the delivery group is taken as the general date for the whole group.

So in your case if you give a common delivery goup e.g. '01' to both of your line items system will deliver them together on 11-July. As far as my knowledge goes there is no automatic determination of delivery group, we have to enter the delivery group manually in the sales order. In case you find any alternative solution please do let me know.

Note
If an item has more than one schedule line with a confirmed quantity, then the system deletes all undelivered schedule lines up to the last one. The system automatically carries over the quantities from the deleted schedule lines into the last one. If necessary, the system changes the delivery date of the last schedule line to that of the delivery group.

Hi Venkatesh,

First question that you have asked is not understandable:
In your first question do u want to know partner determination?

Regarding your second question: only defining the Sales area ( i.e. Sales org+ DC+ Division would noe help u to create a cusomer, you have to do proper assignments in the enterprise structure. Assign all of them to each other and then u wud be able to create a customer master

Hi Venkat,

Creation of customer needs assignment between
Sales Organization to company code
Distribution Channel to Sales Organzation
Division to Sales Organization
Setup a Sales Area
For the above assignments goto Enterprise Structure-->Assignment-->Sales and Distribution

Hi Venkatesh
Regarding your second question.
For creating a Customer master data, Sales area is important but besides this there are some more org. structure like- Company Code, Plant, Shipping point and Storage location which is required for further activities like creating a sales order or Material master.
So first step is to learn the creation of these enterprise structure and then do the assignment of these structures.
For this go to IMG-> Enterprise Stucture -> Define and then to Assign.

bye

WRO 'Question
Complete delivery: e.g SO has two lines, for first item 'ABC' delivery date is 01-Jul and for sec item 'DEF' delivery date is 11-Jul. And del job VL04 runs daily. So my req is when VL04 runs on 01-Jul, del should not be created, but it should create a complete delivery on 11-Jul.
'

Where is this delivery group field in SO? i am not aware of delivery group concept, but we can use 'complete delivery' check in SO header, if we want to deliver SO completely.

Delivery group is in Overview Screen-Shipping tab. e.g. a SO has 6 line items, if requirement is, first 3 items need to deliver together and remaining three together at some other date. in this case we will use delivery group.

However, if all 6 items need to deliver together, we should use complete delivery check box.

Thanks

Hi Expert Venkatesh,
I am new here.
Some error to consult.
If cancel the DO, but the document flow status shows archived instead of
completed. What does it mean ? The result is the availability stock is still 0. By right it should create a returned stock.

Pls advise and many thanks !

Dear Faraz,

I have a similar sort of a scenario. My original order is in the CRM system which replicates to R/3. I process the SO into a Purchase order and give 2 confirmations in the PO with different dates which splits the line item in SO and creates 2 confirmed schedule lines for it.

I ship one of this partially scheduled quantity and now make pricing change to the remaining quantity in CRM. This does deleted my confirmed schedule line in ECC system. I want to avoid this without making any code changes. Is this possible?
