schedule line number

[Former Member]

Can someone explain to me the logic behind the schedule line number?

I see it is not a chronological order nor are they consecutive, yet every schedule line has a number that get's assigned. Is it manually inputed and can be change dor is it automatically generated?

Thanks!

Schedule line numbers are internally created by system in the order schedule lines are created.

If an old, open schedule line which appears in middle is deleted (scheduled quantity zero), then that schedule line number (delivery schedule) is not seen in ME38 or ME39.

Schedule line numbers can be renumbered to make them fall in sequence by using transaction ME85

thanks for the reply guys, but i still don't understand why i have 1, 20, 31, 45, etc number instead of 1, 2, 3 , 4 on the same line of the scheduling agreement.

Check in EKET table for this specific scheduling agreement, you should be able to see all delivery schedules in sequence for this specific scheduling agreement.

Hi,

Schedule line number is the number that uniquely identifies the schedule line .

Use When an item has more than one schedule line, the system automatically assigns a unique number to each line. The number is displayed in the details screens for schedule lines.

Note The schedule line number serves internal purposes and does not, for example, determine the sequence of schedule lines in the overview screen. The schedule lines on the overview screen are sorted by date.

The schedule line number will get created automatically by the system. I hope this will clarify your doubt. Thanking you.
