Delivery Split

Former Member

Hi

I have a scenario which runs something like this. The customer buys an item for which the sales order carries the values like 100 tonnes. I create a single delivery document for the customer and send it to him. He sends his transport fleet to my location. At the time of delivery document creation I am not able to determine what kind of trucks the customer will send. (whether 30 tonners or 10 tonners). Therefore when the trucks come to pick up the material I want to split the delivery into multiple deliveries so that I can do the shipment

Now in the system there is a capability which enables me to split this delivery "Define Split Criteria for Deliveries" but it only shows me the capability to define the split criteria by warehouse number. Is there any way by which I can define the split criteria by the type of trucks (I can say define the split criteria by the weight that can be given in an individual delivery document) . How do I do this???

I went through the help document on

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2005/helpdata/en/38/c1853488601e33e10000009b38f83b/frameset.htm

AND http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2005/helpdata/en/38/c1853488601e33e10000009b38f83b/frameset.htm

I am unable to figure out how I use the field LEDSP_PMODE

"The split profile combines all the settings that you made in the Implementation Guide (IMG) and applies them to the current split process. You can predefine a split profile with user parameter LEDSP_PMODE ." (Ref http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2005/helpdata/en/38/c1853488601e33e10000009b38f83b/frameset.htm)

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks !

You need to create your own data transfer rule to apply in copy control at header level from the order type to the delivery type. Within the code you need to take the data from VBAP or whatever item order table you are using to populate field LIKP-ZUKRL. This is a 40 character field at delivery header level which can be populated by item data for the purposes of delivery splitting.

Please award points if it helps.

Hi Jon

Thanks for your response.

I am trying to use the batch splitting utility. Will the transfer rule still be applicable because here I am trying to split a delivery, ie copying from a delivery to subsequent delivery based on predefined rules.

Hi Pranav

Sorry, I see what you mean now.

You need to use the "subsequent delivery split" function in SAP to achieve this. The documentation in IMG is the easiest way to explain it.

IMG - Logistics Execution - Shipping - Deliveries - Subsequent Delivery Split.

Hi Jon,

I have been through the response... i posted the message after going through the help document.. the problem is the help document tells me that it can be done but doesn't tell me how... in fact this is why i had included the links to the img in the first post itself.

my problem is essentially this. I know the field in the subsequent delivery split mechanism which needs to be used .. the problem is how do i create the business rule based on which this criteria would operate!

any clues?

Hi Pranav

I am on really shaky ground here as I have never done this myself. However (and you may have already looked at this, in which case, sorry), transaction VLSP in the subsequent split deliveries transaction and it reads a 'split profile' which is customisable in the IMG path I sent earlier.

It's worth playing around with the settings in a copy of the various split profiles to see if any of them achieve your split. You need to add your own delivery types in to the "per delivery type" section of the IMG for each split profile.

I suspect you will be using handling units to achieve your goals and the answer will probably be there - by creating a separate handling unit for the 'smaller' shipment and then forcing the override to this one. You could probably use a user exit to achieve this - try some of the forms in MV50AFZ1.

Sorry I can't be of much more help....
