SAP configuration and requirements

Prerequisites

Note

For Receipt Directly Against a Purchase Order:

• Purchase order items must have a blank confirmation control key or a confirmation control key not relevant for goods receipt (see below).

• The material must have batch or serial number profile configuration, if required.

For Receipt Against Inbound Deliveries:

• For packed handling units:

  • Handling units must be created in the delivery, with their contents assigned before processing.

  • The item category in the inbound delivery must be relevant for putaway (see below).

• For unpacked delivery items:

  • The item category in the inbound delivery must be marked as "not" relevant for putaway (see below).

  • Materials requiring batch, production/expiration dates, or serial numbers must have the relevant configuration in place.

  • For WM warehouses, in addition, the item category must be flagged to allow "goods movement before TO" (see below).

For Inbound Deliveries: Putaway Before Goods Receipt:

• Putaway must be fully processed prior to using the app for final goods receipt.

• A “receipt all” action can be performed if all items are ready.

For Outbound Deliveries from Stock Transport Orders (STOs):

• The outbound delivery must have been goods issued.

• Items can then be processed in a manner similar to purchase orders or inbound deliveries.

For Scheduling Agreements:

• Items must have open schedule line quantities that are past due or currently due.

• Processing is similar to purchase order items.
