Hi experts,
The Completion Rule for item category has been set as blank, why partial deliveries triger order status to be Completed? How to make order complete until it's completely delivered?
Case:
Aug 5 - create sales order A
Aug 5 - release credit block for order A
Aug 12 - create partial delivery
Aug 15 - change order price
Then, overall order status "completed", reject status "nothing rejected", delivery status "fully delivered", overall blocked status "not blocked", the confirmed quantity in the schedule line automatically shows the partially delivered quantity.
When creating another delivery for order A, the system pops up "No delivery-relevant items in order A, Message no. VL455".

Guess, the indicator is B. Please go through the documentation on the behaviour of the partial delivery indicator B...
Indicator B-One delivery attempt carried out on any date
This delivery should fully satisfy the order quantity. If the delivery quantity does not correspond to the outstanding order quantity, you receive a warning message.
Any delivery quantity, even zero, completes processing of the order. This indicator can be used, for example, for customers who want no backorders to be generated, even when a delivery quantity is zero.
If only part of the order quantity can be delivered, a delivery is created and the order item is then regarded as completed.
Regards,
Ravi

Hi Ravi,
Is it caused by the field "fixed date & qty"? This field defaults as checked. This is a MTS scenario. On Aug 5, the confirmed qty only can be confirmed against delivery date Aug 8 until credit block is released. After 2 partial deliveries, order A is changed price on Aug 15.
Pls correct my assumption as followings if I'm wrong. The change on Aug 15 trigers the similar "availability check" or "order update" again. Because "fixed date & qty" is checked, the total partial delivered qty only can be considered as the confirmed qty against delivery date Aug 8 on Aug 15.
If my assumption is correct. I wonder why "availability check" or "order update" can be carried out. U know, the schedule line category CP does NOT activate "availability check". I simulate the case in the test system (same server) but no such issue occurs.
Any advice?
Hi Chris,
I use the standard item category L2N for debit meno. As I cannot access the system now, I'll respond later.
Hi Lakshmipathi,
Thanks. Besides, I read the relevant thread related to that. Some thread mentioned that MTS scenario automatically check availalability, even availability check has not activated in item category. Is it correct? If it's correct, it seems that can explain the confirmed qty is the same as the total partial delivery qty on delivery date Aug 8. But, why no second schedule line pops up as availability check works?
Looking forward to your comments.
What is the value in 'Partial Delivery Indicator' field in Customer master-sales area data -shipping tab?
