SAP MM inter-company STO internal and external delivery order and inward delivery bill serial number corresponding relationship

The author's A project, logistics module has enabled HU management, serial number management, batch management and other functions, in order to achieve traceability in various business scenarios.

In the inter-company dump order process, if it is a whole consignment delivery, the business staff will bind the HU to the delivery order; if it is a bulk shipment, the business staff will bind the serial number of the bulk part to the outward delivery order. The POD function is enabled for the outward delivery order, and the inward delivery order of the receiving company is automatically triggered after the POD is posted. At this time, the system automatically brings the HU/ serial number information on the outward delivery order into the inward delivery order, and the HU number / serial number on the two delivery orders correspond one to one. In other words, under normal circumstances, the shipping company sends which HU which serial number, the receiving company should receive which HU which serial number. This is in line with business logic and business reality.

Although customers enable so many functions to achieve traceability, some business documents still fail to match the accounts for a number of reasons. So much so that several delivery orders have been shipped away, but the serial numbers are not exactly the same online and offline. The business staff proposed that in order to trace back, the serial number on the inward delivery order needs to be modified according to the actual receipt (that is, the serial number on the inward delivery order is not exactly the same as the serial number on the front-end extroverted delivery order). So the question is, can the inward delivery order be successfully received and posted in the SAP system at this time?

After testing, it is possible.

1), the following intercompany STO documents, inward delivery note 180018270

2), outward delivery order 80015386

3), serial number data in the first ITEM of outward delivery order 80015386

We can find that the serial number data in the inward delivery order 180018270, the first item, corresponds to the serial number data of the first ITEM in the outward delivery order.

4), using VL32N at this time, modify the inward delivery note 180018270 to add the serial number 157481193190001 with the letter A (this is a new serial number that the shipping company did not send when it shipped), as shown below:

5), VL32N does PGR posting to inward delivery order 180018270, which is a success!

We found that the SAP system does not check whether the serial number in the inward delivery order is consistent with the serial number in the relevant export delivery order. The material voucher information after posting is shown as follows:

It can be seen that the serial number of the material is not fully bound to the material inventory. In fact, you can simply understand the serial number as a text message.
