Immediate processing of sales orders

[Former Member]

Hi,

We have a scenario of Van sales where orders are taken by the Van operator on each individual store and is immediately delivered.

Orders are taken on a hand held communicator and we would like the sales order created in SAP to be immediately delivered and invoiced as soon as the sales order is saved.

Would appreciate inputs from the forum.

I would suggest steps as below:

1) The handheld device should have data compatible with SAP i.e. SAP material code, UoM etc.

2) Sale orders are created in the handheld device without any link to SAP.

3) When the van comes back, the data is downloaded from handheld device into a flat file which is then uploaded to SAP using BAPI which creates sales orders and deliveries in the background.

4) Using VL06G worklist PGI is done for all the deliveries.

5) Using VF04 worklist billing is done for all the deliveries. Single invoice split routine may be used in copy controls at item level so that single invoice is created for individual delivery.

If required you can also automate step 4 and 5 using ABAP but it is better to use standard transactions as there is not much work involved.

Regards,

GSL.
