Order Quantity Delivered Every Week

[Former Member]

Hi Gurus,

There is an requirement from client.

The requirement is as follows: -->

A customer place an order for 20.000 kg but want 1 delivery per week of 5.000 kg

I know there is a way to handle it with standard SAP.

Requesting to throw some lights on this.

Thank you all for sharing these informations.

I appreciate.

As my client does not want to use Scheduling Agreement, I asked them to live with splitting the schedule lines into different dates.

I would suggest Scheduling Agreements (VA31) which was pointed out earlier by one of the respondents as this functionality fits your requirement. However, if you still want to go-ahead with the sales orders then you can go by the suggestions provided above or having multiple schedules in sales order.

Have you considered using Scheduling Agreements?

Scheduling Agreements - Sales (SD-SLS) - SAP Library

Thanks for the quick response Tim.

But we dont want to use anything else, other than Sales Order.

Is it possible?

Thanks

Hi Santi

You could just create separate line items for each quantity of 5000 with the delivery date set for each subsequent week.  This would be the simplest approach and no config required, just end-user training for that particular scenario.

P.S. Also take into consideration each line item may generate one or more schedule lines based on stock availability.  You will need check your "Partial Deliveries per item" setting in the customer master to control this.

hi

If you don't want to use scheduling agreement then split the sales order with 5.000  kg qty per each line and maintain the delivery dates accordingly.

same material input 4 times with 5.000 kg and maintain delivery date as per requirement weekly.

you can deliver the goods as per the schedule.

or Give the quantity as 20.000 kg for material  Go to schedule line and change the delivery date with quantities.

every week input 5.000 kgs manually as below and create the delivery.

10-10-2015   5.000kg

17-10-2015   5.000kg

24-10-2015   5.000kg

31-10-2015   5.000kg

Hi Tim, you mentioned "this would be the simplest approach and no config required". What config we can do (if I would like to go for 2nd option.....config)

What additional config we need to do.

I am aware of splitting the scheduling date in schedule line as per the required date. But is there anyway we can make system to determine.

Thanks once again for your help.

Thanks Gopi for your reply.

I am aware of splitting the schedule line.

I was thinking, if we can make any configuration changes, so that system will make the delivery on the delivery date. (like scheduling agreement)

Thanks

Hi Santi

This would not be so much config but more coding via the schedule line user exit I think.  You would need to check available stock and then based on the customers calendar schedule appropriate deliveries.  But then you also need to know for any given quantity what the splitting rule is and the system can't decide that.  For example you order 20,000 but then should that be split 5000 over 4 weeks or 2000 over 10 weeks.

Another option I thought of is to go directly into the Schedule Lines and manually enter dates:

As I said, without knowing how the split occurs then I think this has to be done manually.  As with any solution the simplest option is usually the best.
