Is POD is relevant for delivery header level or item level? ex; if i have 4 line item in delivery and pgi is also done, i have got POD conformation for 2 line item and billing is created for 2 line item. what is the next step for the remaining 2 line item in delivery.

Thank You,

Ravi

Hi,

PoD gives the possibility to issue an accurate invoice based on the customer’s confirmation

of goods received.

It is activated at 2 levels:

1)Delivery item Category level:

All billable and deliverable item category will be flagged as PoD relevant.

2)Customer Master level:

At Sales Area level on the shipping tab.

The Ship-to-party master data is only cross checked during Delivery note processing for PoD relevance

PoD consists of 5 transactions:

a)Change Single Document (VLPOD)

b) Display Single Document (VLPODA)

c)Worklist Outbound Deliveries for PoD (VLPODL)

d) Worklist Subsequent Processing for PoD (VLPODF)

e)Automatic PoD Confirmation (VLPODQ)

You can find the PoD status in the Status overview tab of the Delivery Document.

It is of:

blank- Not Relevant

A- Relevant

B-Difference reported

C- Confirmed

In your case you need to do the following:

Receive the PoD with difference(only 2 items PoD received):

Use transaction “Change Single Document (VLPOD)”

Confirm the PoD

Cancel the Confirmation

Once confirmed the Delivery Note can be invoiced.

Thank you guys for your reply.

Please let me know the logical steps in this scenario ( POD with quantity difference ).  Ex. if there are 4 line item in delivery and the customer confirms only 2 line item (let say 2 qty.) and you create invoice for 2 line item.

What to do the next 2 line item?

If there is 100% payment against the sales order then the next step?

Thank You,

For other two line items you need to wait for POD confirmation.Canb you tell me what is the confirmation period once the goods send to customer for ex. 5,6..days ?.If you did not get the POD confirmation with in the limit then you need to set up a batch job to confirm these line items automatically.

DO POD for othr items through VLPOD or VLPODL ytransaction to get 100% payment.

hi,

I think POD is relevant for item level. (please check once ).

coming to your second question, POD is the partcular time frame maintaied IN CUSTOMER MATER RECORD to  confirm of the delivery and create billing documnet after the POD time frame.

business waits from the customer for the confirmation with in the POD time. If business does nt hear any thing from customer , it assumes that customer received goods and create the billing documnet after POD time.

thanks.
