Automatic proposal of plant in line item of slaes order.

[former_member301603]

Dear Experts

We have sales area, say SERT\DM\10. And available delivering plants are PLN1, PLN2 & PLN3.

And in the existing system, always PLN1 is maintained as delivering plant in all the customer master. So while creating sales order for plant PLN1, PLN1 will be automatically proposed in the sales order.

Have created new plants PLN2 and PLN3 and assigned to existing sales org, Dist channel.

And now, my new requirement is without creating any new sales area and without modifying Delivering plant in customer master or material master, how to achieve automatic proposal of plant in line item of sales order for plants PLN2 and PLN3 too.

Thanks & Regards

Rajesh

Hi Rajesh,

As mentioned in the previuos posts this can be achieved only through the user exit mentioned or via Customer Material Info record.

Also the other possibility is if you can maintain multiple ship to parties for the sold to then each of the ship to can be assigned a different plant i.e. Ship to 1 - PLN1, Ship to 2 - PLN2 etc. This way when the material is same, in the same sale sorder which ever ship to is chosen its plant will be determined

Thanks and Regards,

Hi

We don't have customer material info record.

And also, cant create any new customer master for ship to party(Delivering plant).

Thanks& Regards

SAP determines the delivering plant in the following order:

1. Customer-material info record

2. Customer master for ship-to party

3. Material master

So if you want to keep customer and material master unchanged, create customer material info records or use the user-exit stated in the previous reply.

If proposal of the plant is material specific, then you can try with customer material information record (T.code VD51). If the selection of the plants depends on other parameters, then you need to use USEREXIT_SOURCE_DETERMINATION in program MV45AFZB.
