Copy data from delivery to return order

[former_member237699]

Hello

I have looked around for a solution for my problem but without any results.

I have a process that involves Returns from customer and consignment issues. Example : We first do a KB order, then create a delivery, this one is then picked and batch and Serial number are determined during TO creation and confirmation. The goods are deliverd and then later a KE order is created based on the first KB order, but since Serial number and batch not is determined during salesorder creation we dont get any of that on the KE order, we have to look that up manually.

If I maintain the Serial number and batch on the KB order it all Works fine, but determining batch and serialnumber during salesorder creation is not an option since that is done during picking.

Is there a solution for this, can the KE order copy data from the delivery or can the delivery update the original salesorder with batch and serialnumber?

regards

Hi Ivar,

I have not done this thus here is only an idea. talk to you abaper  and see if there is an option.

in your copy control between KB and KE at item category level, develop an data transfer routine to find the serial number based on vbfa table and pass it to KE.

or, use a exit to search for serial number upon saving KE.

Hi Ivar Hove,

If your Issue is pretain to Serial Number and Batch, then Both can be Determined at sales order level.

Consider Business Requirement. If Business agrees to maintain Serial Numbers in Sales order.

In Regard to Serial Number,

Add Serial Number Procedure SDAU in your Serial Number profile and in Incompletion log add serial number into it, then system won't allow you to go forward without serial number.

In regard to Batch Management.

Enable Automatic batch determination in sales order Item category, ensure configuration releated to bach management.

Regards,

Vairavan.

Hello

We dont want to Select the serialnumber and batch during creation of ssalesorder since there are many serialnumbers in the Warehouse and it would be difficult to find the correct serialnumber in the Warehouse since the serialnumber not is maintained at bin Level in WM ( we are not running EWM and will not do) But updating the delivery during picking is easy and standard.

The problem is that the next step, ex in the consignment process, KE order based on an earlier KB order, then we want the correct serialnumber for exact that order. The customer can have several seiralnumbers but at this moment in the process we need the exact number hence the need for the Reference. To day we look it up in the delivery and maintain it manually.

The standard consignment process is KB > LF > F8 > KE > LF > F2.  This being the case, why you were referencing KB?  Try to change your configuration and copy control in such a way to match the above document types so that your issue would be addressed.
