STO with and without delivery

Question

Hi All,
       sorry for troubling you all again. last question on STO.
1) when STO is required to be with delivery only then only we use IMG > step up stock transport order> Assign Document Type, One-Step Procedure, Underdelivery Tolerance
there is no need to assign document type in the step--> Assign Document Type, One-Step Procedure, Underdelivery Tolerance,  if it is without delivery in step --  ?  is it like this?
i created a document type <b>zubd</b> by copying the std UB. and did the setting in the STO with the help of SD consultant.
i assigned the new STO document type  ZUBD in step
Assign Document Type, One-Step Procedure, Underdelivery Tolerance
now when i am trying to assign document type UB in the step;
Assign Document Type, One-Step Procedure, Underdelivery Tolerance
<b>the system is giving me error message : an entry already exists with the same key</b>
am i right if i make the interpetation for STO with and without delivery like this:
1) for STO without delivery there is no need to do IMG in the step Set up stock transport order. we can use the std doc type UB or the one created by copying UB.
2)  for STO with delivery we have to do the settigs in IMG for set uo stcok transport order
thanks and regards

Hi Kavita,
You are Right,
Assign Document Type, One-Step Procedure, under delivery Tolerance
In this step, you define which document type is to be used for a certain combination of supplying plant and receiving plant.
<b>There is no need to maintain IMG setting forStock Tranfer Order  Without SD delivery</b>. because main moto of assignment of Document type is to specify which delivery type is to be used.
for this we allready maintain IMG setting before this srep >Assign Document Type, One-Step Procedure, Underdelivery Tolerance at
<b>Assign Delivery Type and Checking Rule</b>:
In this step, you specify whether an SD delivery is to be created in the case of a PO with a certain combination of supplying plant and document type. You can also specify which delivery type is to be used.
The delivery determines how a delivery is handled.  I.e. stock transfers without a billing document or for stock transfers with a billing document.
