Plant Determination in Sales Order

[Former Member]

Dear SD experts,

Appreciate if you could share your expertise on why below scenario happened:

Delivering Plant for Ship-to: ZY01

Delivery Plant (Sales) for Material A: ZY02

Delivery Plant (Sales) for Material B: ZY03

In Sales Order,

Item 1 - Material A - Delivery plant determined as ZY01

Item 2 - Material B - Delivery plant determined as ZY03

1. I understand the standard way of determining the plant in sales order e.g. 1. Customer Material Info Records, 2. Customer Master, 3. Material.

2. I have also checked program MV45AFZB and no user exit has been implemented.

My question is why is Material A not getting Delivering Plant ZY02 like what have been maintained in the Material Master. If because Delivering plant has been maintained for Ship-to as ZY01, then why Material B manages to determine ZY03?

Hope to hear from you soon.

Welcome to SDN forum.

Well, the delivering plant is proposed from the the ship-to party customer master.

Provided the ship-to party is different from the sold-to party.

So, if you have same partner numbers to ship-to party & sold-to party then preference will go to sold-to party.

Say,

Case1

Sales Partner	Customer Number	Delivering Plant
		maintain in respective customer master
SP - Sold-to Party	ABC123	ZY02
SH - Ship-to Party	ABC123	ZY01

In above case, the delivering plant ZY02 will be from sold to party.

Case2

Sales Partner	Customer Number	Delivering Plant
		maintain in respective customer master
SP - Sold-to Party	ABC123	ZY02
SH - Ship-to Party	ABC321	ZY01

In above case, the delivering plant ZY01 will be from ship-to party.

Here I have assumed that delivering plant determination is happening on based on customer master

Hi,

Check whether Customer Material info record is maintained for the "Ship to party" and "Material B" as ZY03.
