Delivery vs Shipment

Hi Experts,
"Unlike packing in the delivery, packing in the shipment can be carried out for several deliveries."
I would like your help to clarify why the difference between Delivery and Shipment.
How can a delivery be made or a delivery order be processed without a Shipment?
Thanks.
regards
Tom

The SAP module Logistics Execution makes a distinction between deliveries and shipments. A simple example can explain this difference.
What is the difference between deliveries and shipments?
The SAP module Logistics Execution makes a distinction between deliveries and shipments. A simple example can explain this difference.
When you order groceries on-line for delivery within a few hours, the supermarket receives your order and verifies the availability. The sales order is converted into a delivery for those products in stock. Normally your order will only consist of a few items, and therefore will not fill one van. Instead the car used to deliver your order contains many orders from various customers who live in your area. The shipment is used within SAP to group deliveries with the aim to have each shipment to represent a full car of groceries.
You notice personnel with their carts collecting the products within the shop. This picking activity is linked to a delivery. The ownership of the products change when they are placed in the van, which is called the u2018goods issue postingu2019 within SAP.
Typical shipment related statuses are the planning, loading and physical delivery of the products. Each shipment is linked to the van, so you could link the driver and car registration number to a specific shipment within SAP.
So the next time you see a van delivering groceries to customers, the car is the shipment and the bags of groceries for a specific customer is a delivery.

Address not copied from Sales order/Delivery to Shipment Document

Hello Experts,
I need your help on Addrss of ship to in shipment document.
Sales Order[VA01] >> Delivery [Vl01N]>> Shipment [VT01N].
User changed the Address of ship to party (Header level) in Sales Order and It reflected to delivery as well and I believe It should also update the address in Shipment document.
But when I checked the Address of the Customer/Unloading point in Shipment Document [VT03N] (as below) I found It was not updated It was same as Customer Master Record and I believe It directly copied from Customer Master Record.
BUT While creating the Shipment system is copying the data from Customer master Record not from Sales Order /Delivery. Logically system should copy the updated address from Order/Delivery BUT It is directly copying from Customer Master i don't know where is the setting of this ??
Can anybody help me on this ? How system takes the customer (ship to party) address in shipment ? Where are the setting of these.
What I need to do so system take the updated address from Sales Order/Delivery not from Customer Master Record (Ship to party).
Can I change the address of customer in shipment document ??
Awaiting your precious reply.
Thanks,

Hello Samir,
Thanks for your response.
I think you get my question in wrong way.
I am sayingCustomer master data was not changed.
User just changed the Address in Order (Order > Header >> Partner tab >> Change ship to address/overwrite ship to address).
Overwritten Address / Updated address are copying in Delivery BUT not in Shipment document.
What I need to do? system should copy the updated address from Sales Order/Delivery BUT it is copying from Ship to party.
I hope this time i am clear to explain my issue.
Thanks,

It is possible to provide the component to the vendor for existing purchase order through a delivery and shipment.
See below SAP documentation: http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_07/helpdata/en/4d/2b906243ad11d189410000e829fbbd/content.htm
From the SC Stock Monitoring for Vendor list, you can also create a delivery via Shipping. The advantage of this procedure is that you have shipping documents and delivery notes for the shipment of the materials to be provided to the subcontractor
To create a delivery, the following data has to be maintained in the system:
the plant must be assigned a sales organization, a distribution channel, and a division. You can define this in Customizing for Purchasing, in the step Set Up Stock Transport Order.
A delivery type has to be defined for the plant from which the items are to be delivered. You can define this in Customizing for Purchasing, in the step Set Up Subcontract Order.
If you want to reference a reservation when you create a delivery, you also have to set the Predecessor necessary indicator to L (Provision to subcontractor necessary) when defining the delivery type. This means that the requirements generated by the reservations can be correctly offset against the deliveries created. You can define this in Customizing for Shipping, in the step Define Delivery Types.
The vendor for the stock with subcontractor must be entered as the customer in the organizational units in the delivering plant, such as sales organization, distribution channel, and division.
The material to be provided has to be entered for the organizational units in the delivering plant, such as sales organization, distribution channel, and division.
The combination of shipping condition (from the subcontractor’s customer master record), loading group (from the material master record for the components to be provided), and the plant have to be assigned to a shipping point. You can define this in Customizing for Shipping, in the step Assign Shipping Points.
To create a delivery, choose Edit → Create delivery. A dialog box appears, in which you can enter the data required to post the delivery. The system posts the delivery in the background and, after posting, it informs you in a dialog box how many items were posted.

Packing proposals in sales orders and scheduling agreements
It is possible to enter packing proposals in sales orders and scheduling agreements. These specifications automatically lead to a packing proposal in the delivery if a special data transfer routine is maintained in Customizing for copying control between the sales documents and the delivery. The packing proposal can be changed in the delivery. It is also possible to pack the delivery according to the packing proposal in the preceding document by using the Use proposal function in delivery processing.
Define the data transfer routine:
SPRO > LE > Shipping > Copy Control > Define FORM Routines for Data Transfers (menu > Data Transfer > Handling Units)
Set the routine in copy control
SPRO > LE > Shipping > Copy Control > Specify Copy Control For Deliveries (see field: V_TVCPLAK-GRUVS)

How to copy Partners from Delivery to Shipment?

Hi,
I know that a Shipment is used usually to group multiple deliveries.
If I have the same partners, in the delivery that I want to group, is there a way to configure copy control from Delivery to Shipment?
Tula Gentil

Hi Tula,
There is currently no provision in the standard coding to
copy partners from the delivery into the shipment header.
The only exception to this is the Partner :'Forwarding Agent', that can be copied from the Delivery into the Shipment.
For this to be done, you should set up suitable copy routines in the customizing for the shipment type. Also the Forwarding agent should be unique in this case.
You can assign your own partner functions , provided that they are set up correctly in transaction VOPA.
The Partner functions for the Shipment stages have to be maintained
separately in a Partner determination procedure specific to Shipment
stages.
The standard partner determination procedure for Shipment stages is
'TRS1':Shipment Leg. You can find this in the customizing transaction VOPA for the Object Transport.
You can add the required partner functions in the partner procedure TRS1, so that they are available for the shipment stages.
I hope this information is useful to you!

Delivery and shipment text.

Hi Friends,
It might be simple question, however I want to know how delivery & shipment text can be maintained.
I mean we are interested to give delivery as well as shipping instructions and that should be populated in delivery and shipment document
What configuration setting requires for above and where one need to maintain this information so that system would collect data whenever required.
Thanks
Shiv

Hi Shiv,
You can do this but in order to do this you need to do the customising in text control
Go to IMG
LE>Shipping>Basic shipping functions>Text control>Define text type
You will find different options in there, So choose the text type for delivery document and define text type and then define text determination procedure and then assign the procedure to the delivery document type you wish.
reward points if helpful answer
thanks

Assign delivery to shipment

I need to assign the delivery to shipment for transaction VT02N. I'm using the function module "SD_DELIVERY_ASSIGN_TO_SHIPMENT" but it is not updating the data.
I have read the functional module documentation and tried it in the same manner.
Any one who has already tried it can help me by providing the code or data to be passed in the function module.
Please suggest me, if there are any other function module or BAPI that can be used for assigning delivery to the shipment.
Thanks in advance

Is it possible in SAP that I can restrict a specific delivery with shipment

Hi All,
Is it possible in SAP that I can restrict a specific delivery can be attached with specific shipment?
Example,
I have a delivery type "A", which can only be attached with Shipment type "Z".
Thanks in advance.

I don't think it is possible, However you can restrict that through selection criteria of VT04.
