Enhancement on inbound delivery distribution

[former_member305354]

Hi,

I have the following scenario on S/4 HANA 1809 system with embedded EWM system:

There are several storage locations in a single plant, several of them are managed by the EWM system but there are some MM "only" ones. A sinlge purchase order (from a external vendor) can contains several line items, with different target storage locations, mixed EWM relevant and MM relevant ones, for example:

• Item 10: St.loc. 0010 (EWM)
• Item 20: St.loc. 0010 (EWM)
• Item 30: St.loc. 0090 (MM)

The requirement is when we generate the inbound delivery based on confirmation (control key '0004'), two different inbound delivery should be created. One which is EWM relevant delivery and distributed to there and one is MM relevant one.

Is there any standard way to have this automatically or do we need some enhancement? If yes, what do you suggest, where to put this logic?

Thank you and Best Regards,
Tamas

Hi Tamás Ankucza,

1> Could it possible create new Shipping/Receiving Point according to storage Location ?

2> Copy Control Routine might be the issue as suggested by Veselina Peykova. seems not considering WH no blank as different (MM Storage Location) . Please check in table LIKP Field ZUKRL

I will check the same in Embedded EWM.

Kind Regards,

Ajit

You need to setup deliver split according to warehouse number in delivery type configuration (transaction 0VLK):

Thanks for your reply. Although that was my first idea as well, unfortunately VL34 generated only one inbound delivery document, with all the 3 items from the purchase order. The inbound delivery hasn't been distributed to the (embedded) EWM.

Maybe there are some other settings that has to be done?

Hm, now I am confused... because when I tested this same while ago the outcome was just as I described above, but when I now tried, I get the same problem as you have. And then again this flag on warehouse number does not make any sense at all. The SAP Note 1392235 - Delivery split by warehouse number for decentralized WHS describes the settings, but it says "At the same time, ensure that there is a warehouse number for all deliveries that are relevant for picking or putaway", which is not really practical.

If nobody can offer a standard solution, that would be worth a ticket, probably...

Hi Jürgen Pilz

Thanks for your reply!

I've double checked the points and found the following!

Split by delivery type, the 'EL' (Inbound Delivery) is checked:

Split by warehouse number, the '211' (which is our relevant, embedded EWM warehouse no.) is checked:

The storage location '211S' is assigned to the warehouse number '211':

I've created a single PO now with 2 line items:

• Item 10 is related to storage location '211A', which is on MM level,
• Item 20 is related to storage location '211S', which managed by the embedded EWM, warehouse no. '211', se above.

For both items I've set up the standard confirmation with control key '0004'.

I've executed VL34 with the following parameters:

The result is one inbound delivery with two items:

What could be the problem?

Thanks,

Tamas

Hi,

there are two settings for delivery split by warehouse number. One is for the delivery type (the screenshot shown by Dominik above), the second is by warehouse number. While the first one is very important for EWM (you have to set this flag, because otherwise, even if the delivery has only one WH, the delivery is not distributed), I always thought the second one is nonsense - but it is exactly for the case you described, when there is a mix of item for a warehouse number and items which are not WH relevant.

Both settings are at the same place in customizing. Choose Logistics Execution --> Shipping --> Deliveries --> Define Split Criteria for Deliveries --> Delivery Split by Warehouse Number.

And it is EWM. NOT eWM - Duh!
And if your question includes the word "transfer order" - do NOT tag the question with Extended Warehouse Management!

An alternative idea - maybe you can create a copy of VOFM routine 301 (FV50C301) in the customer name range and add the split criterion in ZUKRL. Then you can assign the routine in VTLA for DL->EL (DL is the pseudo order type from 0VLK for delivery type EL).
