Standard settings

Activities

General Settings

You define whether you want to use automatic purchase order determination for the inbound delivery type in question. If you activate automatic purchase order determination, you can create the inbound deliveries without reference to a purchase order since the system assigns purchase order numbers for inbound deliveries. For inbound deliveries that have been created by IDoc or transaction code BORGR, you must also decide whether incomplete inbound deliveries with the On Hold status can be saved. Only if you allow saving of incomplete inbound deliveries, will you have data that has already been created at your disposal at a later point in time.

Settings for Temporary Inbound Delivery

You define whether unchecked outbound deliveries and temporary inbound deliveries should be stored in a temporary table in the system so that they can then be used again later in other unchecked or temporary deliveries. Furthermore, you assign the temporary deliveries to a number range.

Settings for Document Content

You define whether the system should copy weight and volume data from the IDoc when inbound deliveries are created by IDoc. As long as you set the appropriate indicator, no other data stored in the system will be used to determine the weight and volume. If neither weight nor volume data is stored for specific items in the IDoc, the values are set to zero.

Settings for Uniqueness/Unambiguity of External Delivery Note ID

You define whether the external delivery note ID appears as a required entry field when you create an inbound delivery and whether the system checks the external indicator entered for uniqueness. As long as you set the appropriate indicator, you can define which type of error message the system displays when the ID transferred by EDI or entered in the transaction has already been assigned to another document and is therefore ambiguous.

Settings for Text Transmission

You define which text types you want to use for text transferral to the material document and in which language the this text is to be entered, displayed, and printed. You can make settings for the assignment of text types to text objects in Customizing for Logistics Execution under Define Text Types.
