POD & inbound Delivery

Hi,
This is regarding the Inbound delivery and POD.
Actually my client doesnt want Inbound delivery to be created once the ASN is created by Supplier.
The Goods Receipt will be done without reference to Inbound delivery .
where as i need to maintain POD due the the below reason :
"When the supplier creates ASNs on the SAP ICH, these ASNs are considered as quantity in transit. When these quantities have been posted to stock, the backend system must send goods receipt information to the SAP ICH to delete the ASNs accordingly, otherwise these quantities would be used twice in the projected stock calculation. In the SMI scenario, goods receipt information is generated using the proof of delivery (POD) function. To create messages of the type Proof of delivery and send them out via EDI automatically, you have to define output message records, which can be further processed as IDoc messages."
Is it possible that i create a condition recordsfor OPOD output type and the POD will be sent to SNC?
What are the settings in ECC that i need to take care of so that the inbound delivery is not generated when the ASN is sent to ECC from SNC ?
Thanks and Regards
shailesh

As i have mentioned in my query :
"When the supplier creates ASNs on the SAP ICH, these ASNs are considered as quantity in transit. When these quantities have been posted to stock, the backend system must send goods receipt information to the SAP ICH to delete the ASNs accordingly, otherwise these quantities would be used twice in the projected stock calculation. In the SMI scenario, goods receipt information is generated using the proof of delivery (POD) function. To create messages of the type Proof of delivery and send them out via EDI automatically, you have to define output message records, which can be further processed as IDoc messages."
If i do the setting mentioned by you then no inbound delivery will be generated for that PO.
whereas The system can only send a proof of delivery if the confirmation category "inbound delivery" (internal confirmation category 2) has been assigned to confirmation control key ZSNC and the goods receipt was entered with reference to an inbound delivery.
Can you please let me know how to tackle this because if i dont use inbound delivery for Goods receipt then POD will not be sent to SNC.

Output type not trigerring Automatically for inbound delivery

Hi all
We have created a custom output type for Delivery idoc processing ZPOD copy of OPOD and maintained all the settings also condition record for the same has been maintained.
But when we are creating inbound delivery the output type ZPOD is not coming automatically.
In the Delivery document and in the Output screen i have checked Determine analysis for output(VL32N -> Enter IBD No -> Select menu option Extras -> Delivery output -> Header
Go to menu option GoTo -> Determin.Analysis.)
It is showing me ->Message 502-Output ignored (requirement 017 not fulfilled)
Can u please throw some light so that in output message determination the Output type should come automatically for Proof of delivery
Thanks and regards
shailesh

Um... I think the message is pretty clear on this - the reason is "requirement 017 not fulfilled".
Requirements for output control may be found in VOFM transaction, under Requirements -> Output control. 017 is the standard one, the description says 'POD on goods issue'. According to the comments, the output is not issued if "POD status is initial" or "No output, if no goods receipt".
Either correct the document or remove this requirement in output configuration, if it's not applicable.

Creation of inbound delivery without reference to a PO

Dear gurus,
Let's say that a normal inbound flow is something like this:
PO > Create inbound delivery with reference to PO > inbound shipment > Transfer Order > Confirm Transfer Order > Post Goods Receipt > Putaway
Issue:
My client does not want to create the PO because the PO serves no purpose to them. They want the process to start from inbound delivery.
Question:
1. Can a standalone inbound delivery be created WITHOUT reference to a PO ? If yes, please tell me the configuration and transaction code involved in order to create this standalone inbound delivery.
2. Based on standard configuration, can an inbound delivery be created automatically with reference to a material document (for eg MIGO Mvt Type 501). Once again, for this scenario, no PO should be involved. If yes, please tell me the configuration and transaction code involved in order to trigger the creation of this inbound delivery (I'm not looking for the answer of an inbound delivery creation BAPI to being triggered directly after the creation of the Material Document).
3. Based on standard configuration, can an inbound delivery be created manually with reference to a material document (for eg MIGO Mvt Type 501). Once again, for this scenario, no PO should be involved. If yes, please tell me the configuration and transaction code involved in order to create this inbound delivery.
Thanks.

Hi Peter,
Actually, my intention is not really to create an inbound delivery based on a goods receipt. Since my client is not keen on the idea of creating a PO, I'm actually trying to provide alternatives and workarounds. From what I have gathered, I already know this much
-> An inbound delivery must be created with reference to PO unless Handling Unit Management is activated. If Handling Unit Management is activated, the creation of a Material Document will trigger the creation of an inbound delivery (I havent tested this out yet). Therefore, a PO will not be necessary in this case.
I was kind of expecting answers along this line, unless of course, something better pops up. Maybe someone out there may know something more.
As for Handling Units, I'm not familiar with it. Hopefully somebody can give me a good configuration guideline on what to do in order to activate it so that I can simulate the scenario of a Material Document triggering the creation of an inbound delivery (I'm not looking for the kind of answers which simply cuts and pastes the SAP HELP URL, 4.6C Handling Unit PDF, Best Practice Document and etc). Hopefully somebody out there can really give me a good guideline on how to do this.
Thanks..

Creation of Inbound delivery mandatory for ASN process in classic scenario?

Dear Experts,
We are going for classic scenario for our green field SRM implementation process. Our client is not using ASN process in their existing MM process. However, they are now looking for an oppurtunity to enable Suppliers to trigger ASN using SUS. In such case, is creation of inbound delivery from Buyer side a mandatory process?
Is the below the process correct?
PO -> ASN (Supplier using SUS) -> Inbound delivery (Optional) -> Goods Receipt (Mandatory) -> Invoicing.
Here, I understand that Goods receipt can be verified against the PO or via Inbound delivery to PO. ASN will inform the store keeper in advance about impending goods receipt and smoothen the confirmation process.
Could you please comment on the above process? Could you please suggest the best practices followed here?
Thanks and regards,
Ranjan
Ranjan Sutradhar

Hey Ranjan!,
You are on track.
The process flow you have shown is true. ASN is available as a standard as part of the MM-SUS process. It makes the buyer aware of any delays in delivery or to make arrangements on shipping docks to receive goods on a said date etc.

Nikhil

ASN creation based on ECC inbound delivery

Hi All,
I have a scenario in which we are creating an inbound delivery in ECC and corresponding ASN should be created in supplier system.
In order to achieve this functionality of ECC to supplier system is there any way to map this functionality through any custom development ?
Kindly suggest
Thanks
Gaurav Gupta

Hi,
What I understand from the requirement is - The Supplier dispatches the material to Purchasing company & informs about the same via ASN. This ASN triggers inbound delivery in ECC. When the material reaches the Purchasing Company, GRN is posted with reference to the Inbound Delivery.
Is this correct?
If so, you can achieve this through RFC function, which can be called from vendor ERP system or through Vendor Portal by directly calling the RFC or by using Web Service.

Prashant

Error in creation of inbound delivery

Inbound Delivery: Inbound WHSCON IDoc with Batch Split - HowTo...?

Hello
We have another tricky problem to solve on our ERP 6.0 system.
My colleagues of Lindt UK create manually inbound deliveries (VL33N) which are replicated to the warehouse (DESADV IDoc -> TRADACOMS.ORDHDR).
When the goods arrive at the warehouse they send back a good receipts message (TRADACOMS.DLCHDR -> WHSCON IDoc).
In some cases we have a batch split because the goods have been put into different storage locations. Example:
- item 10: 200 Cases of product 4711, batch 10-2011, in storage location '0001' (free available for Sale)
- item 10:     5 Cases of product 4711, batch 10-2011, in storage location '0004' (damaged)
I am aware that in the inbound WHSCON item 10 is a main position and the two actual batch split positions are sub-items (900001 & 900002 with HIPOS = '10'). I tried to used E1EDL19-QUALF = 'BAS' (= batch split) with the sub-items but failed so far to update the inbound delivery that I can see the batch split.
I have managed to get one sub-item but not 2 of them. Somehow the system aggregates the quantities for both sub-items into the single item that shows up in the inbound delivery.
When we send the inbound delivery to the warehouse the item looks like this:
- item 10: 200 Cases (no batch yet, Putaway quantity = 0, because these data are coming from the warehouse).
QUESTION: Has anybody else been faced with a similar (if not identical) problem and how did you solve it?
Thanks a lot in advance for your valuable input.
Regards
Uwe

Hello Finbarr
I assume that you do NOT send any (suggested) batches to your warehouse. Otherwise you would have the same problem like we have that the WHSCON cannot overwrite a (suggested) batch.
However, if you just send the quantity per item then the batch split is much simpler than you suggested:
"First E1EDL24 segment:
POSNR     50
MATNR     000000000000602006
MATWA     000000000000602006
CHARG     L1519   " <<< first batch
LFIMG     37.000
VRKME     CT
"Second E1EDL24 segment:
POSNR     50
MATNR     000000000000602006
MATWA     000000000000602006
CHARG     L1880   " <<< second batch
LFIMG     37.000
VRKME     CT
Well, and as qualifier we use: E1EDL19-QUALF = 'XYZ' " a dummy
The SAP system is smart enough the realize that these two E1EDL24 segment belong to the same item yet have different batches and, therefore, yield a batch split in the delivery. The system generated the 9xxxxx numbers for this sub-item lines automatically.
Although I believe that it is not possible to change a batch in the delivery using an inbound WHSCON I would appreciate to have a final proof of this assumption. I could imagine that if you first delete the item containing the suggested batch and then add a new item with the actual batch from the warehouse it might works. However, this would require to implement a user-exit which I do not prefer.
Regards
Uwe
PS: It seems I gave an answer to the wrong question (should be EDI (DESADV): Can batches be overwritten by an inbound WHSCON (pick conf)? )

SAP System inconsistency for Inbound delivery / MIGO and a "sap note"

Hello Friends ,
After following SAP instruction on how to remove the inconsistency between posting GR through MIGO (Inv. mang.) and the reflection of the goods movement status in the inbound delivery document - done that using sap note 570991
the problem is that the system start behaving in a weird way throwing unjustified Error messages for any suggested goods receipt using MIGO with reference to inbound
for example after creating an inbound delivery document and trying to post it via migo , an error will pop up
- Inbound delivery storage location cannot be changed to here Message no. VLA316
the thing is i didn't even maintain any storage location entry up to that point and yet i cannot post any stock !!
also another error like
- Inbound delivery batch cannot be changed to *** here
which doesn't make any sense because there is not batches in the inbound document !!
i think this behavior is coming from the "Document Flow Update for Stock Postings" inbound indicator at the shipping parameter at client level customization
i need help on how to overcome this annoying SAP Bug/Problem specially i am in a post go live critical situation

Hi,
The messages you mentioned were introduced to avoid inconsistency between inbound delivery and IM, through the note: 1050944 - GR for inbound delivery using inventory mgmt as of ECC 6.00
If the messages are issued incorrectly, then you may check for SAP notes (I couldnt find anything relevant) or raise an OSS ticket to SAP.

Problem with HU during creation of Inbound Delivery using IDoc

Hi,
When I am creating Delivery manually and perform Packing, Handling Unit information is stored in VEKP and VEPO tables.
But when I am processing through IDoc, after passing data to Handling Unit Segments E1EDL37 (Handling unit header), E1EDL39 (Control Segment for Handling Units), E1EDL44 (IDoc: Handling Unit Item - Delivery), It is creating delivery successfully but Handling Unit information is not getting stored in VEKP, VEPO tables.
Tried most of the notes 912470, 678464, 682506 and all of them say "<i>You use the Idoc DESADV to create inbound delivery with packing data. The delivery is created, Idoc gets status 52 but the Handling Units (HUs) are missing. This is due to a program error. In case the IDoc contains segments to create HUs (E1EDL37), the IDoc processing should end in error status (51) as long as no packing data could be created</i>.".
Need your advice whether we have to maintain any customizing for this or how to proceed with it.
Thanks in advance,
Murali.

IDocs and BAPIs sometimes behave differently than transactions. You might need to add a user exit specifically for IDoc processing. Otherwise send a message to SAP and have them look at it.

Purchase order and Inbound delivery

Hi gurus,
Im trying to create an inbound delivery with reference to purchase order. In the configuration i've created a new delivery type similar to EL and said Yes to all the copy controls that system asks. When im creating the inbound delivery with reference to the PO it is picking up the standard EL delivery type instead of the one that i created. What did i miss here? I want the inbound delivery type that i created be the default inbound delivery type for that particular order type.. pls suggest
cheers
Joseph

Hi Joseph,
Just check whether the newly created delivery type is assigned to the Confirmation Category LA under the below path:

Exit or Badi to prevent MIGO Goods Receipt on PO with Inbound Delivery

Hi,
I am hoping that someone can provide me with some direction on how to prevent the use of MIGO for GR when the PO being received is (or should be) linked to an inbound delivery.
For purchase orders with a confirmation control key an inbound delivery is to be created and the goods receipt needs to be done from the inbound delivery. This scenario also includes the case of stock transport orders whereby an inbound delivery is created form the outbound delivery. On the other hand for purchase orders without a confirmation control key no inbound delivery is created and the MIGO transaction is to be used to post the goods receipt.
Since both processes are possible, I would like to prevent people from posting the GR using MIGO if certain conditions pre-exist.
Can anyone suggest a means to accomplish this goal? Is there an exit or badi in MIGO that you would suggest using?
Thanks,
Paul

How to know that the purchase order link to which inbound delivery ?

Dear Support ,
I am looking for one way which can check which purchase order ( only for trading goods ) link to which inbound delivery ....
Now my way is use the purchase order number as a condiction to check in LIPS table , but i think this is a stupid way , right ?
In fact , i am writing one report which can show all the Open Purchase Order ( Only for trading goods and already created the inbound delivery & shipment costs ) which can do the MIGO without the problems ....
Has any way to check it ?
Many thanks .....

Pending Inbound Delivery GR IR PO

Dear Friends,
1. How to came to Know the Pending GR or Inbound Delivery ( GR against inbound delivery )
2. How to came to know the pending (PO,GR,INVOICE,BILLING) documents in a particular period in a particular level.
With Regards
Maheru

Question 1 - But, To make PO and then Inbound Delivery and then GR against Inbound Delivery. What are the setting that are required to acheive this?
It is based on the confirmation category and you have to use the confirmation category in the PO, so that system will allow you to create inbound delivery
SPRo path is MM => Purchasing => Confirmations. There click on Confiramation Categories and maintain the confiramtion category as Inbound delivery
Question 2 - Still we have PO and Inbound Delivery, can we make GR against PO? and leave Inbound Delivery as it is without touching? Is this possible?
Yes, this is possible, eventhough you have inbound delivery you can do GR, and at the time GR ,you will get message saying
inbound delivery exist for the same.
If you convert that message from warning to error, system will not allow GR for PO which is having inbound delivery.
in otherwords you need to do GR with ref to inbound delivery only.
