Closing Sales Order manually without delivery!

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I have come across a very unique requirement in our organization.

Business Scenario: We need to close the sales order without delivery for few orders, we have third party products which will be shiped by them and they will be sending delivery and tracking numbers and this will fullfil our order, so we have to close the sales order as soon as tracking number updates happend at sales order by the input file received from third party.

Now, at present all sales order status is autoprocess,it will change to close only when delivery gets created in our system...so can we still close the sales order without delivery for few of them ?

if so, if we update status tables programtically, will it have.any impact on the system? if so, what is the best method to address this requirement...that is for few orders we need to change the statuswithout delivery .

Thanking you in advance!

Hi Ravi,

In SAP, you can always close/delete the sales order if there is no delivery. However your delivery process is little confusing, you can put it in more understandable words if possible. For ur process, you are the best person to analyse the implication and take a decision. But in SAP, as I said, it is possible to close/delete SO when there is no delivery and invoice for it.
