Documentation
Definition
Describes the unloading point that is communicated to the vendor in the corresponding release order (forecast delivery schedule, JIT delivery schedule, or kanban summarized JIT call).
Unloading points in the goods receipt process are understood to be the place where delivered goods are physically unloaded.
Use
The unloading point entered is transmitted to the vendor in the forecast delivery schedule, the JIT delivery schedule, or the kanban summarized JIT call.
The unloading point is copied from the referenced scheduling agreement or summarized JIT call for the (Automotive) goods receipt process. You can use it as a selection criterion.
You must enter the plant and the storage location before you can enter the Automotive unloading point in an MM scheduling agreement item.
Dependencies
The permissible (Automotive) unloading points are determined from the staging areas, which you can maintain in Customizing for Logistics Execution.
Staging areas were originally organizational units for Logistics Execution. They are now used - described as (Automotive) unloading point - to represent unloading points in the Automotive environment.
Note
The following terms are used synonymously:
- Unloading point (Automotive) <-> Staging area (Logistics Execution)
- Unloading zone (Automotive) <-> Door (WM/Logistics Execution)
For further information on the use of (Automotive) unloading zones, see the SAP Library under SAP Automotive -> MM Scheduling Agreement Enhancements.
Example
The following example describes how you can use (Automotive) unloading points in MM scheduling agreement items:
- Warehouse number 001 is assigned to the combination plant 0001/storage location 0001 in Customizing for the Enterprise Structure, under Assignment -> Logistics Execution -> Assign warehouse number to plant/storage location.
- The staging areas (or Automotive unloading points) A1, A2, and A3 have been created in Customizing for Logistics Execution, under Warehouse Management -> Master Data -> Define material staging areas.
- Plant 0001 and storage location 0001 have been entered in the MM scheduling agreement item.
Result
The system determines the warehouse number and then the corresponding staging areas (or Automotive unloading points) from the plant/storage location combination.
Unloading points A1, A2, and A3 are proposed when you use the input help when editing scheduling agreements.
The unloading point selected is transmitted to the vendor in the delivery schedule.
