Documentation

Definition

This indicator describes the delivery's shipment information status, which is set by the carrier.

The following statuses are possible:

  • "A", if the shipment information is still expected from the carrier
  • "C", if the shipment information is received from the carrier

The status indicator is blank if the carrier does not expect any shipment information.

Use

You can use this indicator in one of the following ways:

  • For returns deliveries that have to be approved by the carrier (who uses the carrier portal on SAP SCEM) this shipment information status indicator is set to "A".
  • When the shipment information is received from the carrier, the status indicator is set to "C", and the delivery can be processed further.

This shipment information status influences the point in time when the delivery is automatically distributed to SAP EWM. The delivery is not automatically distributed to SAP EWM if the shipment information is still expected.
