splitting FUs from a single Delivery/Sales Order to several FOs

[Former Member]

HI SAP Gurus,

at a client we have a case where orders are commonly more than a single FTL, so we’d like to be able to do the following (this example is not specific, we could have lots of other variations along the same lines):

ERP		TM
Sales Order 1	/	FU1.1	\	FO1
		FU1.2	/
	\	FU1.3	\	FO2
Sales Order 1	/	FU2.1	/
		FU2.2	\	FO3
	\	FU2.3	/

Which seems pretty standard a requirement, right?

The problem is help.sap.com says in black and white this is not possible:

"The FO contains all freight units (FUs) from each related DTR (that is, the FO, and therefore the ERP shipment, must contain complete deliveries). This is because we do not perform a subsequent delivery split in SAP ERP."

And here’s the link to the full article: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_tm81/helpdata/en/bf/7d10296a854899b545daf4d21d3a5d/frameset.htm

Any idea on how to do this? We can’t be the first to do this, right?

I trhink this is driven by the complete delivery indicator in the sales order. If set, there should be only one delivery document which does not fit to have mutliple FORs. So basically you have to remove the complete delivbery indicator(or delivery group respectively) to allow the splitting.
