In this step, you specify how subsequent quantity differences (arising from a return delivery, for example) are posted in the case of an Automotive goods receipt.
You can specify how the quantities relevant to the SA release creation process and materials planning are to be adjusted.
This enables you in future to prevent quantity differences due to an underdelivery from appearing as open quantities in the next SA release, for example, or negative quantities being in transit in the event of an overdelivery.

For goods movements (reversal, return delivery, and stock release), you can specify

  • The shipping notification is to become MRP-relevant again (or not)
    You can decide whether or not you are expecting further quantities (deliveries) in respect of the relevant shipping notification
    • The shipping notification becomes MRP-relevant again, i.e. you expect further quantities/deliveries
      For example, in the event of a partial reversal of a goods receipt, you can decide whether or not the shipping notification is to remain MRP-relevant in the amount of the still-open quantity.
    • The shipping notification does not become MRP-relevant again, i.e. you do not expect any further quantities/deliveries
      In this case, you could specify in the quantity difference profile whether the scheduled quantity or the cumulative received quantity is to be adjusted.
    • (See documentation of data element Closure of Shipping Notification COMPL_IND)
  • The SA delivery schedule is to be adjusted
    (See data element Adjust Item ETANP)
  • The cumulative received quantity (CRQ) is not to be adjusted
    (See data element Do Not Adjust CRQ FZGLS)
  • The user may change the default values of the quantity difference profile again when posting
    (See data element Profile not Changeable QTYDHT)

  • The return delivery is to be created with outbound delivery (See data element Return via Outbound Delivery ISAUTO_XDELIV)

If, for example, the originally notified quantity is greater than the GR quantity (underdelivery), with the aid of the profile you can adjust your quantities in such a way that the difference no longer appears as an open quantity in the next SA release.
You can likewise use these functions if the notified quantity is less than the current GR quantity (overdelivery).

Example

In the case of a return delivery, for example, you would select all indicators - i.e. the status of the inbound delivery and quantities relevant to the SA release creation process and MRP will be adjusted, an outbound delivery will be created, and the returned quantity of the outbound delivery will be offset in terms of MRP.

An example is provided in the documentation under mySAP Automotive -> MM Scheduling Agreement Enhancements -> Automotive: Example: Quantity Differences at Time of Goods Receipt.

In the case of a reversal of a goods movement, you would not select any of the indicators. This means that your requirements would be taken into account in the SA release creation process and in materials planning.
The CRQ of the relevant scheduling agreement item would then be reduced by the reversal quantity.

Requirements

If you wish to use these functions, you should use a confirmation control key with just a single confirmation category (inbound delivery) and should have specified GR assignment in the confirmation control.

The quantity difference profile is assigned to the confirmation control key and hence the scheduling agreement or PO item.

Note
If you wish to use the quantity difference profile for purchase orders, only the functions for closing the shipping notification and adjusting the PO delivery schedule are available.
