Confirmed Quantity for Item in sales order

[Former Member]

Dear All,

In one sales order there is confirmation block (this is through the delivery block in the sales order header level).

The sales order contains BOM (header and it's sub items) and some standard items also two third party items.

When the sales order is saved there are no confirmed quantity for any of the item except the BOM header.

May I know what could be the reason to have this BOM header confirmed quantity..??? this is leading to a problem in the data from sales order.

Is there any customizing related to this item (item category or schedule line category) to look out for..??

Thanks & Regards,

Vishi...

Hi

What is the item category group of that BOM material?

Which are delivery relevant...BOM main material or the components?

What is the reason for configuring confirmation block...is it for Credit management purpose?

In the sales order, are there any more items other than related to BOM? If yes, what is the status of the schedule lines for those items?

Hi,

Please check that your header item category is not having any schedule lines allowed through item category control, maintain the sub item level item category as relevant for schedule line allowed box selected in the item category control, so that system will do availability at sub item level and confirm accordingly.

If this is not solving your issue, please revert back with the item category controls at both header and item levels you are trying to do this.

Dear Venkat,

Thanks for the reply.

I have checked with the item category settigns / controls. Here I would like to mention that I can not remove the check box "Schedule Lines Allowed" from the header item category since this would restrict the item being appeared in the Delivery.

Do you suggest anything else??

• Hello everyone,

Does anyone have any thoughts about this issue..???

hello, friend.

your issue is quite broad. outcome depends on -

1. configuration of delivery block (which, in your case, we can assume to include confirmation block)

2. selection of availability check and MRP type in material master

3. schedule line category and schedule line determination

now in standard, if the order line item category is TAN, and MRP type is PD and availability check is PD... the system might temporarily confirm the item even when putting a delivery block at header level, but the system should delete confirmed quantities when you save the order. you can check the confirmed quantities when you open the sales order in change mode... the confirmation should be zero.

however, in third party items (item category TAS), these items are normally confirmed even in change mode. this may hold true if either MRP = none (e.g. ND) and/or if availability check is KP (no check).

nevertheless, regardless of confirmation quantity, the system should not allow creating of delivery while delivery block is in place.

please try these scenarios and post your feedback.

regards.

Hi Vishita,

Please also check the quantity and item category maintained for header and item level from CS02 in usage 5=sales and distribution.

Hi,

As per standard MRP for BOM based on either related main item related or sub item related. these we set in item cat.
