FM / BAPI to update outbound delivery packing with existing HU

[Former Member]

Hello,

I have a requirement to <b>pack items in an outbound delivery with an existing HU</b>. I do not want to create a new HU as there is already and existing handling unit to be used. I tried using WS_DELIVERY_UDPATE but I'm encountering errors. I suspect that I am passing the wrong tables/import parameters.

Can someone please tell me exactly which <b>parameters/tables</b> need to be filled up in order for WS_DELIVERY_UPDATES to work according to my requirement? Again, <b>I do not want to create HU, the HU is already available</b>.

Thank you very much.

Sincerely,

Ice

Hi Ice,

I'm experiencing the same issue. I managed to link the delivery to the existent HU but I missed something because the delivery item is not packed. Could you tell me which parameters did you fill in order perform the proper packing?

Many thanks in advance,

Pere

Solved on my own too using a three steps approach. I'm attaching the code in order to reduce development effort.

DATA:

lwa_vbkok LIKE vbkok,

Hi Pere,

Many thanks - your code worked for me!

It's always good to post the way you solve problems even if you think it's not necessary, you never know when someone else could make a good use of your answers. Thanks for posting the code.

Hi Pere! thank you for the code!

I have one question, do you think that I can use these this approach if I have the requirement of assign an existing HU with stock already pack to an existing outbound delivery, because the HU have been received from other center and it is on HU manage storage location (is a container already pack with diferent materials).

So if I use the Subprocess 1: Assign delivery to a HU, and then skip the part when you Pack HU (Subprocess 2) because is already pack in stock , and proceeds with Subprocess 3: Pack assigned delivery with CALL FUNCTION 'WS_DELIVERY_UPDATE.

It would work for me?

Do you know which function can I use to assign an existing HU already packed with stock to an existing outbound delivery with same materials and qty that the HU have in stock.

thank you in advance!

Hello Ice,

I try to use the same FM to update just the external 2nd handling unit number.

There are no other handy FMs.

I do not manage to get an update done.

Is this at all possible?

Could you please let me know the needed basic field values for the update process of HUs?

Thanks a lot in advance.
