External Shipping Orders

In our SAP system, external shipping orders (ESOs) are routed to each approver on the hierarchy until the ESO is closed. But during forwarding, there are times when ESOs are getting stuck out into SAP space. Therefore, the ESO is not sitting in anyone's workflow nor is the ESO able to be manually forwarded (reassigned) to anyone. At most times, you are able to flag those ESOs for deletion, but we do not want to do that if the material on the ESO has left the factory. We want these ESOs to exist in the correct status for audit purposes. Is there a way to alleviate this problem? What may be causing this problem?

Hi DJ,
Most of the settings that are required to display the tracking number in the web shop are ECC dependent. The function module that gets the tracking related information in the Run Time is CRM_ISA_BASKET_STATUS_ENH.
In the above function module at line number 383 contains the relevant logic to get the tracking related information from the ECC system. At this line number the function module BAPI_XSI_GET_VTRK_G is called remotely in ECC.
ABAP Stack in ECC:
BAPI_XSI_GET_VTRK_G (FUNCTION MODULE)
            XSI_CREATE_TRACK_URLS (FUNCTION MODULE)
                                TRK_GET_URLS (SUBROUTINE)
                                                XSI_CREATE_TRACK_URL_MULTI (FUNCTION MODULE)
                                                                XSI_CREATE_TRACK_URL (FUNCTION MODULE)
Transaction Codes where the settings need to be done in ECC:
1.     VTRC - Maintain Express Delivery Company
2.     0VVT - Set Up : Express Delivery Company
3.     VTRK - Parcel Tracking
Database tables relevant for Tracking in ECC:
1.     VXSITDU u2013 Express Delivery Company : URLs
2.     VXSITDL u2013 Express Delivery Company Data Field
3.     VTRKH u2013 Tracking Data Header
4.     VTRKP u2013 Tracking Data Item
5.     VLBL u2013 Express Delivery Company Data Field
6.     TCAVAR u2013 Carrier URL Connection (Substitution of Variables)
7.     TCAURL u2013 Carrier URL Connection
8.     EKES u2013 Vendor Confirmations

Converting External Ship-to-party number to Internal ship-to-party number

Hi Friends,
I am working on Ale idoc scenario in which i need to create sales order from customer purchase order. for this i need to maintain ship-to-party number in advance. Customer is providing me with list of ship to party number, but i dont want to maintain external number. I wan to maintain internal ship-to-party number and assign it to external ship-to-party number coming from idoc from customer PO.
So Please suggest how can i do this. is there some standard functionality provided by sap for this, coz i think this is standard requirement.
Thanks ,
Brijesh Soni

Hi Brijesh,
You can maintain the value of external ship to party number in the customer master against a system generated(internal) customer number.
This can be done in the sales view----partners tab of customer master. The field is called"partner description".
When you received an idoc,you can match the customer number in idoc to the field KNVP-KNREF and against this field pick value of KNVP-KUNNR. once the system determines the correct sold to party then ship to party will be determined automatically.
SAP has given KNREF field especially for these kind of scenarios.

How to get shipped orders, unshipped orders and orders with open deliverie

Hi
how to get shipped orders, unshipped orders and orders with open deliveries
can anybody answer this.
points would be rewrded
Thanks

Hi,
You can check in the VBUK table for the status of an order. If you do a Query on VBUK table to get all the orders whose delivery status is not 'C' or the total goods movement status is not 'C' you get to know the orders not yet shipped.
Hope this helps. Reqard points if useful.

Combination Report:Shipping Order/BarCode Labels

Post Author: dgerundo
CA Forum: General
Help!I am trying to re-create a report from a mainframe that is printed on special size document that contains Shipping Order information as well as bar code labels. The problem as I see it is being able to print the barcodes (which contain individual items) in an area that is usually designated for Header information. It is almost like taking two different reports (a shipping order and barcode label report) and 'glueing' them together.
Header:ShipTo, Shipto Address, ShipTo City, State etc. Body: Item #, Item Description, Quantity, Price Footer: TotalsThe right side of this report (document) should contain the bar code labels. Any Suggestions????

External purchase order release date is not calculated

In our live system, when creating external purchase orders from tasks within work orders, system does not calculate the release date of purchase order as explained in the documentation (planned delivery date - planned delivery time). Strangely, when the calculated release date does not lie within the current year release date is assigned to the creation date. When calculated release date lies within the same year, correct release date is assigned to the PO.
Althogh our development and productive systems have exactly the same patch level, we do not experience this behaviour on our development system. This makes me think that the problem is due to system-dependent setting or some master data such as factory calendar.
How could we correct the problem? Thanks in advance.
Ozgen.

We don't have a release strategy for PReq.
On the Preq Item -> quantites/ dates tab there are 3 dates: delivery date, request date and release date. In MRP process, the release date is calculated by the sytem based on planned delivery time and GR processing time. The PReq should be changeable by MRP up to the release date. On the release date the system should transfer PReq to SRM and mark the PReqs
as u2018firmedu2019 u2013 not changeable. This is a SAP standard process. Worked well with EPRTRANS.
BADI ME_REQ_SOURCING_CUST imethod CHECK_EXTERNAL_SOURCE is already implemented. The BADI controls what requirements to send to SRM.
We tried putting a check for Release date like: if release date is = < than system date , send PReq to SRM:
if is_req_item-FRGDT le sy-datum.
cv_ext_sourcing = cl_mmpur_constants=>yes.
It does stop new PReqs with release date in future from coming to SRM. However, the BADI is not retriggered for the same PReq when the release date reached.
Can you please guide me through the implementation steps? If it possible to retrigger the PI message via a scheduled process?
Thank you

External service orders

Hi PM Experts,
How to maintain external service orders?

Dear bharat.c ,
By using Tcode OIOL, where you assign maintenance order type - service order with Sales doc type (desired & as demand by business process).Regarding control key:Only for Internal control key, confirmation is required. For external operations, confirmation is not required.
For more details refer below link :

VF06 not working for drop ship orders

Hi All,
We use VF06 for creating billing docs. Interesting it works good for all order/delivery types but does not create any billing document for third party sales orders. I have flagged both - order related and delivery realted document indicators and leaving all the selection inputs blank except for the sales org. When we try to create the invoice for a drop ship order, it gets created but surprisingly does not get picked up in VF04 or VF06.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,
Vidya

Hi,
I did go through some notes and could find out the problem. In copy controls we have set the billing quantity to F to enable billing even if GR is done for the PO and need nt have the Vendor Invoice Recipet to be done. SAP says in some notes that if this is set, then the billing due list will not have the order displayed even if it can be manually invoices. But I dont have any idea how to overcome this. SAP has provided standard reports but somehow these reports are not working for me.
Thanks & Regards,
Vidya

Changes to Drop Ship Orders with configurations/star items

Hi,
Can someone in this group clarify a few things with respect to changes to drop ship orders that has configured/star items. The CTO guide says that we cannot do configuration changes on the sales order, if the related PO is 'Approved'. There is a processing constraint that prevents it.
-->So can we cancel PO and the Purchase Requisition, then de-link the configured/star item on the sales order and then do configuration changes?
-->Assuming that the PO is NOT 'Approved', then we can do configuration changes on the sales order, so what happens to the PO. Does the PO get cancelled or the old configured/star item's PO line gets cancelled? The guide says it depends on the status of the PO. Its a bit ambiguous.
Can someone who has tested this function in R11i or R12 share their experience?
Thanks,
Nitin

The PO changes are not reflected automatically on the SO.
However, you can run the "Sales Order and Purchase Order Discrepancy Report" in Order Management. This report will at least give you the drop ship orders that don't match.
Hope this answers your question

External Service Order PO in Product Costing

Hi,
We have Sales Order Costing process which is done on Sales Order level. During Sales order creation and save, costing is calculated automatically. Based on Sales Order MRP Run is generated and Production Order is made on the basis of Sales Order. We have requirement of External Service Purchase Order need to be flow in product costing. Already we have done external service order purchase order through production cost center and it has done GRN and vendor invoice. GRN value has flown to production cost center. next step I have doubt. In Costing variant under valuation variant - External Processing strategy sequence is done as "Net Purchase Order Price". What are the other settings are required ?
So I would request you, please guide me how external service order purchase Order can be shown to product costing ? If I want to show this external po value to costing sheet during sales order costing how it can be introduced ?
Best Regards.

Shipping order Fill rate report

Hello guys, I dlike to know which infoprovider would be best suited to get Fill rate information, knowing that fill rate is the first shipment item divided by the total order item.

Thanks for that answer, I do have some algorithm, that goes like this: fill rate is FIRST shipped order divided by the total order. Now the trick part is Fill rate shouldnt not change value if there are x amount of shipment after that first shipment to complete the order. This is where I dont know whether (and how) to implement that in a routine, or at bex level.

WWI server problem with report shipping order

Hi everybody,
we have a problem with the WWI server and report shipping orders for Inbound documents (PDF):
after we created an entry in CVD1 and using buttons "Accept" and "Ship immediately" we run the report RCVDEVEN. First time we did it the WWI server started working and ended with error but assigned the correct PDF. After that, the WWI server didt start anyway.
First error message:

Depending on how you did set up the MAN_CALL (Letter, Fax, Email) this data needs to be available at the customer.
Check if you can increase the Log Level of the report shipping via EH&S Environment Parameter in the Customizing - Entry SRE_DS_TRACE_LEVEL = 2.
