Basic doubt on sales order and purchase order

[Former Member]

Hi,

I would like to know that at the line item level in a sales order is the plant from where we deliver goods/services or is the plant to which the goods/services will be delivered?

Also I would like to know that at the line item level in a purchase order is the plant from where we supply goods/services or is the plant to which the goods/services will be supplied?

I know that it is a basic question but would appreciate your help.

In sales order line item plant : From where Goods are moving to Customer.

In Purchase order line item plant : it is a receving plant, the plant which is going to recive the stock

Christino Ronaldo,

Basically, in Logistics Process Plant Declared in Sales and Distribution is for Delivering purpose

and Plant Declared i Purchase order is for Receiving purpose. So as per what you have posted

I would like to know that at the line item level in a sales order is the plant from where we deliver goods/services or.........

Yes, it is the plant which is known as Delivering Plant from where the goods are services are provided

at the line item level in a purchase order is the plant from where we supply goods/services or is the plant to which the goods/services will be supplied?

Yes, here the plant is receiving plant which receives goods and serviced material

Plant in sale order differs to PO.

In sale order it is a delivering plant whereas in PO, it is receiving plant.

Hi

I would like to know the plant that at the line item level in a sales order is the plant from where we deliver goods/services or is the plant to which the goods/services will be delivered?

Yes correct From this plant deliveries will get generated

This is delivering plant to effect supplies to customer

Also I would like to know the plant that at the line item level in a purchase order is the plant from where we supply goods/services or is the plant to which the goods/services will be supplied?

No Wrong

This is the receiving plant where we receive the materials

In ME21N if you take the document type as UB then immediateley supplying plant will come on the rt side

In ME21N if you take the document type as NB then immediateley vendor will come on the rt side

The plant which appears in the line item row in a PO is the plant which is going to receive this stocks
