Do I need to create sales order from scheduling agreement?

Do we directly create delivery from Scheduling agreement or we create sales order and do the delivery?

This is totally related to your scenario. For example, if you are working with schedule agreement to cover JIT process, you won’t will create a sales order after the call. Otherwise, some scenarios created to use a schedule agreement to cover and fill the minimum stock in customer, could need a sales order.

Technically, you can create or not, and this decision should be related to your process. Think why you need an intermediary document between Schedule Agreement and Delivery/Shipping process. If you are looking for a "quantity confirmation" before shipping, enable the Forecast and Confirmed quantity tabs in header level. This is relevant for MRP too.

The schedule agreement is a sales document, that you will control and handle based on normal copy control.

You can very well create delivery directly either from scheduling agreement or sale order. Needless to mention, you could have very well tested this in your system before checking with SCN members
