Automatic Packaging material as delivery item

Hello Friends,
In the delivery document there was a automatic packaging material created and deleted in the delivery document, due to which the weight is pickedfrom that of item of delivery document and not from the Handling unit.
I would like to know in what circumstances the automatic packaging material get added to the delivery document, when i observe the changes for the document there were some changes in the Net weight and Gross weight.
Can you guage anything from the above statements, how is that an automatic packaging material is added.
Thank you.

Hi,
Are you using automatic packing functionality in SAP?
As the name specifies, this can be used to pack materials automatically; based on pre-defined set of instructions. Once those instructions are configured, at delivery creation point, materials will be packed automatically.
Best regards,
Anupa

No item generated for packaging material in delivery - packing (how?)

Hi all,
I am trying to customize packing for deliveries. I would like to have the packaging material as a line item in the delivery. I know this is possible but I can't seem to make it happen.
I have already ticked "Gen. pack.matl item" in my delivery type. Also, I have selected in the packaging type "B Item generation in first packed delivery" for "generatedlvItms" option.
Now, in the delivery after I packed the items, no line item was generated in the delivery for the packaging material. The "No. of Packages" in item overview is correct and the status is "C" completely packed. Btw, I am using manual packing here.
Is there some more configurations I missed here?
Thanks in advance for all your help.

I assume that your basic HU configuration and master data have to be ok because you are able to pack your goods.
1) Are you able to add your item w/o HUM (=not by creating a HU, just adding the material as a simple item) to the delivery? /For this you need define a record in T184L (where usage "PACK" is not there)/.
If you are able it means that e.g. your delivery copy control settings are ok (V_TVCPLAK; delivery type: LF and sales doc type: DL --> HUPM/DLN item categories in your case)
2) If you are able to
- create the handling unit manually in the delivery
- add the packing item to the delivery (w/o HUM) and also have the T184L with usage "PACK"
- item generation is maintained for your packing material time "A" or "B" in field V_TVTY-KZPGN
- plant determination for packing material type ("A" or "B" in field V_TVTY-WERFD)
it should work in my opinion (for delivery type LF).

HU Management Addition of packaging Material in Delivery

Hello All,
I have requirement-
In HU Mangament the Packaging material should get add automatically in delivery as a separate line item.
I have done the configuration to get the HU created automatically but how to add the line item in delivery.
Is any extra configuration required for that.
Please guide me on this
Regards,
Sujit Borse

Below is the exact solution on the concern issue------
1) Delivery type should be made
u2022     Automatic packing
u2022     Generation of delivery item
u2022     Have such a routine which can allow items without order reference
2) Packaging material type (YG01)
3) Allowed material types for packaging material groups
4) Packaging instruction creation (POP1)
u2022     Assign the material to a packaging material
5) Packaging transaction profile (already provided by SAP) this has standard packaging instruction determination procedure
6) Packaging instruction determination procedure; Condition types; Access sequence; Condition records (POF1) with assignment of packaging instruction
7) Item category for packaging materials; item category determination with usage = u201CPACKu201D

HUM - Generation of Delivery Items

Dear All,
problem:
1.I just started to learn & work with HUM...
2. We would like to use the 'Generation of Delivery Items for Packaging Materials' function of HUM.
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_03/helpdata/EN/09/4b2268d27211d3b4f7006094b9b9dd/frameset.htm
So, we would like the packaging material stock to be reduced after PGI of FGs. We can create the HU for the FG and packaging material, it's no problem (VL01N/VL02N menu > Edit > Pack).
But after PGI the packaging material should move together with the FG.
I did the following steps suggested by SAP help (link pasted above):
1. Define Item Category Determination in Deliveries
(LF, VERP, PACK, , DLN, DLP, KEN, HUPM - item category of packaging material is 'VERP', delivery details of FG: LF, NORM, TAN)
1. Define Packing Material Types
I created a record with packaging material type 'K010' in this Customizing step;
- (B) plant determined from the first item that was packed
- (C) packaging materials
- (B) item generation in first packed delivery
- etc
Still, after packing in VL01N/VL02N no item is generated for the packaging material.
Please help to solve this issue...
Thanks,
Csaba

Hi
there is a setting:
IMG > Logistics - General > Handling Unit Management > Basics > Define Packaging Material Types
Set the packaging material type field "GenerateDlvItms".
SAP Help
This indicator dictates whether delivery items are to be generated during delivery- and shipment processing for packaging materials of this packaging material type.
Note that delivery items are usually only generated if the delivery type (or shipment type) provides for item generation for packaging materials.
Delivery items are generated as follows per packaging material in the delivery that contains the first packed item:
- During delivery processing:
If the indicator has a value of "Item generation if ship-to party is unique" or "Item generation in first packed delivery".
- During shipment processing (depending on the value of the indicator):
"Item generation if ship-to party is unique"
If all handling unit items are going to the same ship-to party
(also valid for inbound deliveries if the vendor is the same)
"Item generation in first packed delivery"
For each packaging material even if the ship-to party is not unique.

Returnable packaging Material Flow

Hi,
I have setup Item Cateogry Grp as ZLEI (Copy of LEIH).
In the Delivery Item Cateogry determination, setup Item Cateogry ZZAL
(Copy of ZTAL) for delivery type ZLF and Item Cateogry Group ZLEI.
Completed the relevant settings for the determination of the returnable
packaging material in delivery through the packaging material type.
Still when I am picking the HU in my delivery, I am not able to get the
returnable packaging materials in my delivery after TO confirmation.
But if I change the Item Cateogry Group in material master as LEIH, it
works and I see my returnable packing materials in delivery.
Can somebody please advise why I am not able to use ZLEI (Copy of LEIH) item
cateogry group for determination of return materials in delivery.
Regards,
Harsh

Harsh,
The error is not in Item category group LEIH to ZLEI, it is in the item category From TAL to ZTAL.
Redo it slowly, the moment you copy TAL to ZTAL click tick mark then copy controls screen will apppear accept it by clicking ok.
Then Check Assignemnt of sales Document to item category check whether you are using the item category group you have created and item category assignemnt.
Check... Revert for Clarification

Zero pricing for packaging material

Hi All,
I have one scenario, In sales order there are two line items one is standard item and second one is packaging material.For second item I don't want to maintain price,that means zero pricing.Is there any solution for this.
Regards,
Hari Challa.

Dear Hari,
You define new item category for the packing material through VOV7 transaction.
In the item category detail screen you maintain Pricing field as Blank - NO pricing under Business Data tab.
Do the itemcategory determination for the new itemcategory VOV4 transaction with the packing material itemcategory group+sales document type.
Now system will not consider price for the packing material.
I hope this will help you,
Regards,
Murali.

Delivery item for HU Packaging Material

Hi all,
I have a problem in Packing (LM46) using HU management. When I pack the HU to a delivery it creates another line item (900001) for the packaging material used in the HU. I have not set this functionality for the delivery type (LF). Can't figure out why this is happening, does anyone know what else I should check for ?
Thanks in advance,
D.

Hi,
a delivery item is also generated for the packing material, if a plant was determined/added for the packing material and an item type was determined for it
you should check
- transaction 0184 for the item type determination and
- transaction vhar for the plant determination
(the other case is if
-an item type was determined for the packing material -> 0184,
- the delivery item creation for packing material is set for the delivery type -> 0vlk and
- delivery item creation is also set for the packaging material type -> vhar)
note 831204 describes these two cases when a delivery item is generated for the packing material
I hope I could help you.

Ely

Returnable Packaging as a delivery line item

Hi,
I have this requirement:
Whenever certain materials are purchased, they always come with returnable packaging. I have setup packing proposal and created packing confition records using packing determination type RCPT and key Material.
When I create an inbound delivery (type EL) for a purchase order for a material, I am able to determine the packing material as a Handling unit.
However, I want to add the packing material as a separate line item in the delivery.
I have maintained the Item category determination: EL + LEIH + PACK = ZELN.

Packing Material delivery item should not be send via EDI

Hello experts,
I am having a problem with a cross company process. One plant uses the automatic delivery item generation of packing material because they want to have them in stock. But the receiving plant does not have them in stock. So, what we did, we created new packing materials for example 8500 and 1500 for a euro palett.
And on the EDI server we swith the packing material of the HU from 8500 to 1500, which works well.
But the problem is the delivery item of the packing material which should not be adviced to the receiving plant.
Do you know any User-Exit or customizing functionality in order to send only the real materials to the receiving plant?
I use the SPED message as well as DESADV Idocs where I need to cut the packing materials.
Thank you.
Manuel
Because nobody answered yet: Can you tell me if this idea does make sense or if I should follow another way?
Has nobody yet had this same problem?

I come to know from thread you do not need packing item in your stock.We did similar kind of packing process in our system.
Our process also Cross company scenario .We have two SAP system .In one system they issue goods through an outbound delivery with packing information against SO.We will use the Goods issue information from other system to create Inbound delivery in other system.
In the EDI file they send to us Pallet and Carton information along with file .So what we did we have created two packing articles ,One for carton and other one Pallet and these Values are maintained in TVARV table.
We have used DESADV/DELVRY07 idoc to create inbound delivery.PI Creates the Inbound delivery Idoc with HU information from other system ,While posting the inbound delivery we used our packing articles to pack the Inbound delivery items.

Packaging material to auto-generate lines in delivery & PGI

Dear Experts,
The requirement is to have the inventory for packaging material to reduce on PGI.
I am trying to resolve this by getting the packaging materials used in the delivery to auto-generate new line line/s. I have set the packaging material's GenerateDlvItms to "B" & checked the box to "generate packaging material items" in the delivery type, but no lines get created!
Whats the right way to reduce packaging material stock on PGI?
Does generating the line in delivery help? If yes, hows the right way to do it?
Please advice.
Many thanks in advance !
Best regards,
Rohit L.

Sloc for packaging material automatic determination

Hi
I am doing the following process.
Creating STO ME21N
Delivery         VL10D
TR/TO           LB01/LT04/LT12
Handling Unit ZHAND
VLMOVE       Outbound Delivery Creation and PGI
When i am creating outbound delivery. It gets created by VLMOVE. When i click on PGI, I need to enter the sloc and site every time for packaging material. Why location for packaging material does not determine automatically from the delivery in PGI. Please suggest.
Same thing happens in case of inbund delivery.
Thanks & Regards
Kapil Nanda

hi Azat,
sloc is determined via transaction OVL3. There you have the field 'storage condition' which comes from material masterdata (MARA-RAUBE). Note that the field is editable at plant view, but the data is in MARA table (so general for the material code).
If you have different storage conditions defined for different materials, then you can configure only for selected ones automatic sloc determination.
However, can you explain why there is such a need? Because to me this is weird requirement..?
Regards,
Dominik Modrzejewski

From which table field could we find the 'material type' of delivery items.

Hi,
Please kindly advise from which table field could we find the 'material type' for one delivery items??
Thank you.

Hi,
You cant get the material type directly from delivery item. Pls make a joint between LIPS and MARA tables to get the same.
In LIPS, get the material numbers of the delivery document.
Give them in MARA to get their material types
