Use

In this IMG activity, you define which delivery types are used for direct outbound deliveries in ERP. The delivery type is mandatory for creating the direct outbound delivery in ERP if the delivery is directed to an external customer. For stock transfer deliveries, this activity is optional.

Requirements

Before you can assign delivery types to direct outbound deliveries you must first define suitable delivery types.

Standard settings

Activities

You can define delivery types based on the following parameters:

  • EWM Delivery Type
    This is the delivery type used for the direct outbound delivery in SAP EWM. Since the ERP system has no knowledge about valid values, no search help is available for this parameter. If you want to define the ERP delivery type independently from the EWM delivery type, enter * as a placeholder.
  • Code for the Initiator of a Communication Chain
    This code describes the business process in which direct outbound deliveries are submitted from SAP EWM to the ERP system. If you want to define the delivery type independently from this code, choose the * value as a placeholder. Relevant business processes for direct outbound deliveries are:
    • Kit-to-stock
      Direct outbound deliveries are used for posting goods issue for the kit components.
    • Reverse Kitting
      In this process the disassembled kit headers are posted goods issue by means of direct outbound deliveries.
    • Cash Sales
      Goods are sold directly to customers within the warehouse. The related direct outbound delivery might be relevant for billing.
    • Direct Shipment
      Goods are shipped to customers or other warehouses without prior planning.
  • Warehouse number
    You can define the delivery type settings for a specific warehouse number only. If you want to define the delivery type for all warehouses, use * as a placeholder.

If you make multiple entries with placeholders (*), the system first looks for the most specific matching entry, that is the one with the smallest number of placeholders. If you have defined multiple entries with the same number of placeholders, the system uses the matching entry with the most specific data fields on the left.

Example

Example 1:

You want to use delivery type LO for all direct outbound deliveries having OUTB as delivery type in SAP EWM. If the direct outbound delivery is related to a stock transfer, delivery type NL must be used for this parameter combination. Make the following entries:

EWM Del. Type    Code for Initiator    Warehouse No.    ERP Delivery Type    Repl. Delivery Type

OUTB    *    *    LO    NL

Example 2:

You want to use delivery type LO for all direct outbound deliveries having OUTB as delivery type in SAP EWM, except for warehouse 100. For this warehouse, delivery type ZLO is to be used. In this case, the tablelooks as follows:

EWM Del. Type    Code for Initiator    Warehouse No.    ERP Delivery Type

OUTB    *    *    LO

OUTB    *    100    ZLO

Example 3:

Provided the table looks as follows

EWM Del. Type    Code for Initiator    Warehouse No.    ERP Delivery Type

OUTB    *    *    LO

*    *    100    ZLO

Then the system would determine delivery type LO if the delivery type in the warehouse management system is OUTB. This would happen for warehouse 100 as well since the first table entry has more specific data fields on the lefthand side. If the EWM delivery type is not OUTB and the warehouse number is 100, the system would determine ZLO as the delivery type. In all other cases, no delivery type would be determined.

Further notes

You can activate Business Configuration Set /SPE/DIRECT_OUTBOUND_DELIVERY in order to obtain the minimal needed configuration for working with direct outbound deliveries.
