Delivery plant

Hi

What is the difference between the fields Plant (WERKS) in MM and the Delivery plant (DWERK) in sales order. Are they both one and the same if so why the field name is different?

Thank you

Dear Nivi Ram

Plant has multi various functions in Logistics

In PP it is production unit

In SD it is a delivering plant

In MM It is a storage location or stock maintaining plant

In most of the cases a single plant itself will perform all these three functionalities

Say if there is only one plant say 1000 then WERKS and DWERK both will be 1000

We should be concerened more with SD that is delivering plant

This is what we assign to the combination of sales org cum distribution channel in enterprise structure assignment

and for this delivering plant only shipping point is assigned in enterprise structure assignment

What we maintain in CMIR (it at all it is maintained ) and CMR is also delivering plant

In MMR Sales org data 1 tab also delivering plant is only maintained

If WERKS and DWERK are going to be different then to process sales STO has to happen between WERKS and DWERK

Sock has to come to DWERK (SD delivering plant) to process sales

Hi

The delivery plant is the plant from the SD side, when you assign the plant to sales organization + distribution channel, the plant became in delivery plant.

Thanks in advance,

Mariano.
