Partial Delivery to Several Ship to from Single SO

[Former Member]

Dear all,

We have a case to create partial Delivery to several ship to from single Sales Order ,

case like this :

Sales Order #12345

Sold to : ABC, Ship to : ABC (default)

Item XYZ, Quantity 50 Pcs

Sales Order Date : 3/1/09

When creating SO, we do not know the ship to, so we make it default to ABC.

Ship to known until the truck/Customer come to take their goods.

let say 4 Partial Delivery Order created from Sales Order #12345

Delivery Order Date : 3/2/09

Delivery Order #1001

Ship to : ABC

Item XYZ, Quantity 20 Pcs

Delivery Order Date : 3/3/09

Delivery Order #1002

Ship to : DEF

Item XYZ, Quantity 15 Pcs

Delivery Order Date : 3/4/09

Delivery Order #1003

Ship to : GHI

Item XYZ, Quantity 10 Pcs

Delivery Order Date : 3/5/09

Delivery Order #1004

Ship to : ABC

Item XYZ, Quantity 5 Pcs

The problem is Ship to in TCODE VL01N disable to edit/choose ship to, it always point to "ABC" (from Sales Order).

Anyone know how to make ship to in TCODE VL01N enable for input /choose ?

or any other solution for this case ?

Thanks for response.

Dear Budiman,

If you want do the partial deliveries to different ship to parties from single sales order you need to maintain seperate line item for each partial delivery and you need to assign 4 different ship to parties for each line item at Item data-->partners tab .

In your case you want to 4 partial deliveries so you need enter material XYZ as 4 items in the sales order.

Item 10 >XYZ>20 pc

Item 20 >XYZ>15 pc

Item 30 >XYZ>10 pc

Item 40 >XYZ> 5 pc

Now you go to Item data-->Partners tab of each item them maintain the 4 different ship to parties to each item..

Item 10 >20 pc>Ship to ABC

Item 20 >15 pc>Ship to DEF

Item 30 >10 pc>Ship to GHI

Item 40 >5 pc> Ship to ABC

Complete the sales order with all data now you can create 4 partial deliveries for 4 line items with diferent ship to party.

Note:- Make sure that all ship to parties are have master data.

I hope this will help you,

Regards,

Thanks for response, but not solve yet.

There's a time different between SO & DO.

When we create Sales Order for item XYZ Qty 50 PCS (3/1/09) , we don't know anything about delivery (timing, qty, ship to). Customer only give us info that he/she order XYZ 50 PCs on that day. and pay for it.

We only know qty for delivery after the truck coming to our warehouse.

in this case, first on 3/2/09 truck coming and want to get 20 Pcs, so we create DO for 20 Pcs and ship to ABC.

Second, on 3/3/09, truck coming and want to get 15 Pcs, so we create DO for 15 Pcs and base on truck driver info, we want to record ship to information (in this case to DEF).

and so the other DO until complete 50 Pcs.

So, we can't split the qty line in when create SO.

Dear Budiman,

It is not possible to create partial deliveries for different parties without maintaining different line items in the sales order.

It is possible to create partial deliveries for the single ship to party without maintaining different line items in the sales order.

I hope this will help you,

Hi

As explained by Murali, your requirement can be met only if you maintain different line items for the same material with different quantities and relevant Ship To number.

The same procedure can be followed as below.,

1. Create the sales order with quantity 50.

2. When you get the ship to details for 20 quantity, goto sales order (VA02) add another line item for quantity 20 and reduce the quantity in the first colum to 30, and in the partners tab for the second line item...change the Ship To to the new one from the defaulted header ship to value.

3. Goto VL01N and create the delivery specifying the line item number as 20 in the overview screen of the delivery.

4. Similarly if you get another **** To number for quantity 10, then again goto VA02, add line item 30 for quantity 10, change the ship to party and also reduce the quantity in line item 10.

Hope it is clear and not confusing.

Thanks,

Hi,

Based on your scenario,I understood that you haven't known the ship to party at the time order and partial delivery creation and you have to update the ship to party after that.It's not possible as once you have created order and partial delivery, you have facility to change the ship to party at sales order header level but it won't reflect to delivery document.The only solution for your problem is let it be the default ship to party number is same to all the partial deliveries,once you have known new ship to party details just updated address details of that ship to party at delivery level manually.

That means the ship to party number is same to all partial deliveries but the address details are different.I have followed same thing for my client.
