Serial number in delivery not coming automatically

Question

Dear all ,
Please guide me on this
We are having serial number management in our client, and we have decided for the FG the serial number will be maintained by the PP  while doing confirmation,    and this is make to order senario    so when i put a sales order  for a FG material   based on that  the pp will confirm the goods and add a  serial number to it and will put it in the stock   i.e " sales order stock"
now my problem is   when i creating delivery   what is the procedure to get the serial number which is assigned by the pp person .     if  i go to  item  select  extras  and go to serial number  i am not getting the serial number which is assigned to the FG material    automatically    i have to click  the " select serial number"  in the dialog box  and then have to go and select the required serial numbers from there  .
I wanted to have  the serial number to come automatically i.e  if  i click the item and extras  and serial number  the serial number assigned to that  FG material should come   defult 
Is there any settings to be maintained  so that it comes
*and  let say  i am getting the serial number but after adopting in the delivery  and save it  where will i can see the   serial number in the  delivery  , and  which table i can see it ? so that i can fetch it and show it in the smart forms which we need to create as an annexure  which will have a list of serial numbers *
please give me some input on it

Hi,
do I understand correctly that when doing a production order confirmation serial numbers are created for the produced product?
When creating a delivery, do you create a sales order first on which you refer to with your delivery?
If not, then it is clear, that you have to add the serial numbers in your delivery manually.
This goes for sales orders as well, as PP only creates the serial numbers as equipments (view using IQ03) in stock. In your sales documents (sales order or delivery) you need to declare which serial numbers are actually being processed by the sales process (been taken from stock).
If you refer to a sales order by your delivery any assigned serial numbers will be handed over to the delivery and also the material movement documents, if applicable.
The tables affected are:
OBJK
SER01 (delivery)
SER02 (sales order)
SERnn (more documents)
Go to SER01 to read single LIEF_NR = VBELN and item (POSNR) and then read OBJK with OBKNR and TASER = 'SERnn' to get the serial numbers. The master data you will find in EQUI (key EQUNR or SERNR/MATNR) and stock information in EQBS.
btw.: what is FG?
