Returnable packaging

[Former Member]

Hi all,

This is my First post on SDN forums, I am working on a specific scenario of Returnable packaging.

Although I referred to some materials available on SAP Help and SDN but still having some doubts.

What i concluded from the aforesaid readings is u2013

It is like consignment return.

T code to see it u2013 MMBE, item category group u2013 VERP, item category- LEIH.

I am searching for the scenario & guidance when customer keeps returnable packaging and the other way around when customer returns it.

Please help me. In later part of my question. Please respond back for any doubt. correct me if I am wrong in my findings.

Regards,

Frederick

hi Frederick,

welcome to SDN...

it seems you got conceptual knowledge about Returnable packaging. I am also now a days working on similar scnerio...

this might be use full for you.

If the customer returns returnable packaging material, then business has to pick up returnable packaging material from customer site..

--- First go to VA01 & raise the sales order (doc type u2018ATu2019)

Specify the returnable packaging stock quantity u2013 save & exit.

---now go to u2018VL01Nu2019 & do the returns delivery for returnable packaging quantity

Then do the PGI and save the document.

please let me know if it is useful to you. let me know about your requirements..

Hi,

Process flow u2013

1.) When customer should return the packaging items

OR -> LF (packing) -> billing for only material sold->returnable packing pick up (LAB)

-> Returnable delivery (LR)

2.) When customer does not return the packaging items

OR -> LF -> billing for only material sold-> returnable packing issue (LN) -> billing to returnable packing (F2)
