Unloading point BORGR

Question

Dear all,
we have the following case: a single inbound delivery contains up to 40 items of materials, to be delivered to several unloading points. If the unloading point is maintained when creating the scheduling agreement, this information will appear automatically in BORGR. But this customer works in 10% of the cases with purchase order instead of scheduling agreement, and there we have no chance to maintain the unloading point: this field remains blank in BORGR (and the gate employee has even no chance to know what to maintain there). Do you know any existing user-exit or logical rule, that brings in BORGR the unloading point information from another source besides its maintenance in the scheduling agreement?
Thanks in advance for your support!

Answer 1

Dear Ms. Delembert,
at least some enhancements are necessary to make use of the unloading point also for purchase orders as you described it for the SAP for Automotive solution.
Since R/3 Enterprise, the following Business Add-Ins (BAdI) are available to enhance the purchase order processing: ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST for the business logic and ME_GUI_PO_CUST for the UI.
From ERP 2005, you could also add an own enhance-points (form MEPO_ITEM_FILL_KONNR in include LMEPOF7G).
In case you are using purchase orders based on purchasing contracts, you might like to maintain the unloading point to the contract item as it is available for the scheduling agreement.
From ERP 2005, you could implement an own enhancement replacing the SAP enhancement implementation ISAUTO_SCH_EMM_SAPMM06E (include MM06EO0M_MODIFY_SCREEN).
If the purchase order item would contain the unloading point, it would be automatically copied to the inbound delivery item (table field LIPS-LGBZO) based on copy routine 202 of delivery processing.
