How to pass back results of gATP from APO to R/3

[Former Member]

Dear all,

we're currently working on a gATP implementation and face following open challenges for which we kindly ask you for your valuable support:

1.) We need to pass back the allocated CVC of the gATP (product allocation) check from APO to z-append fields of VBAP. In order to do that we implemented additional field catalog fields which are updated in one of the product allocation userexits on APO side. Using an enhancement of form MVERF_PRUEFEN in SAPFV45V the data which is passed back from APO to R/3 via field_catalog can be written into the respective VBAP fields. ONLY: this doesn't work for a "complete delivery only" customer/order as MVERF_PRUEFEN is not called in such a case.

---> Do you have any proposals where/how to implement the functionality to write back the results passed back by APO into VBAP fields?

2.) In case of incomplete confirmation (not enough qty) the "APO Product Availability Overview" screen appears. We do not want to show this screen in APO to our users. There should be just a warning message but not this full screen. Do you have any ideas how to turn off the screen (similar to what happens if the order is posted in background)

Thanks again for your great input and help!

M,

In the case of question 1, I have no comment.

In the case of question 2, I believe the standard R/3 configuration works here.

OVZJ > select Sales Area & Divison. You have to decide which response you want the system to perform automatically, under "Avail check rule". In your case, probably "C" will be best. Avoid any of the 'Dialogue' entries.

Hi Mawdee,

We used structure US_CATALOGUE using a Form userexit, FV45VFZY_USEREXIT_CATALOG_VALU found in Include FV45VFZY of SAPFV45A to pass the values to and from our Z fields in the field catalog. You will find the SAP suggested procedure in the below notes.

For further information, refer to OSS notes 174969 and 385039.

Hope this helps.

Dear Mohan,

thanks for your reply.

We actually use the functionality you described already for passing the required additional information from R/3 to APO. What we're currently searching, is a solution to pass back results (such as the allocated CVC or additional information from APO) from APO back to R/3 and store it there in VBAP-appends.

Thanks,

Maawdee
