sold to party issue

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I am working with a requirement , for every transaction until the last minute client is not clear abt ship to party and the quantitites to be delivered. But the sold-to remains the same. for this , at the time of creating the sale order we maintain quantity as 40 (for eg,) and should be able to change the ship to paty for partial quantities should be delivered. how could it be acheived?

sold to - ABC - qty 40 (creating sale order level)

ship-to XYZ - qty 20

ship-to DEF - qty- 10

ship-to KLM - qty - 10

any settings or work around process is needed here? pls throw some light on this.

Thanks,

KP.

Hi,

Best way is to create separate sales order line items for each ship to party. You can do that at the time of sales order initial creation or just before you delivery creation.

Hi

After you receive the delivery details like Ship to party and quantity to be delivered.

You can add the line items in the sales order as per the required quantity and change the partner ship to party at item level.

Finally delete the first line item which was created for the full quanity.

sold to - ABC - qty 40 (creating sale order level) Delete the line item in the sales order and add the below

ship-to XYZ - qty 20

ship-to DEF - qty- 10

ship-to KLM - qty - 10

Hi Prashanth,

Thanks for your reply. as you said , at item level change the ship-to party , u mean double click on line item and change the ship to party under partners tab? or any other changes?

Thanks,

Two options are there to address your requirement

a) If you know the exact quantity to be delivered at the sale creation time itself, then you can create sale orders based on ship to party

b) Alternatively before creating a delivery, a new line item can be included and you can change the ship to party at line item level. For information, once partial delivery is made for any line item, you can neither make any change nor delete that. You can only foreclose the line item by maintaining the delivered quantity in order quantity column and save.

thanks
