Dear Friends,

I have got a scenerion wherein I have to create a Delivery wrt to a Project.

Now the problem is that in my delivery the Foreign Trade data is not appearing by Default.

The Same is maintained in the Master.

Can anyone guide me of any setting that I am missing, or is there any special configuration to be done for projects deliveries to capture the Forign Trade Data.

Hi Mathur,

Please go through with the below information as am not exactly sure where you are missing but here I have provided what steps need to be care of : might just find your answer.

Delivery from Projects

You can use this component to create deliveries in the Project System and consequently to deliver material components that are assigned to a project.

For instance, you can deliver material components, which are assigned to different network activities at different dates. These dates can be linked with the relevant phase in the project, for instance pre-assembly and assembly.

You can also deliver independently of a sales order. You save the data necessary for the delivery, such as sold-to-party, delivery address or delivery date in the project. The general data is valid for all delivery items that have not been assigned special delivery information.

You can select the material components for a delivery via:

A project

A WBS element

A sales order

A network

The components can also be filtered using component attributes, for instance, the plant, the material number or using data from the assigned delivery information, such as the shipping point, the goods recipient or the delivery date.

Integration

A delivery that you created in the Project System can be processed further in shipping, for example for picking or packaging. For more information, refer to the Shipping component (LE-SHP).

You can evaluate all deliveries, including those you created in the Project System, in the sales information system. For more information, see Sales Information System in the Logistics Information System component (LO-LIS).

Features

When it selects material components, the system takes components into account that have been assigned to either a network or a production order. To select materials in production orders, the production order header must be assigned to a WBS element.

You can also deliver materials for third party orders and, in contrast to delivery processing in SD, you can deliver materials from project stock.

If you create a delivery from a project, every delivery item has a direct reference to the reservation in the network. In this context purchase requisitions for externally procured materials are also considered to be reservations. This direct reference has the following advantages:

If you deliver partial quantities, the system automatically determines dependent values , such as the available open quantity and uses this value as default for future deliveries.

The system copies account assignments from the reservation.

The system checks the availability of the delivery items in the stock that has been entered in the reservation.

The system posts the goods issue of the delivery automatically with reference to the reservation. The quantity withdrawn is updated correspondingly.

The system posts the actual costs as of the time of issue according to the stock and the account assignment of the material components.

For a delivery in SD that refers to a sales order, the requirements for the delivery item consume the requirements for the order item.

In deliveries from projects the requirements for a material component in a reservation are not affected by a delivery from the project. Therefore it is laid down in Customizing that the system does not create requirements for a delivery item that has a reference to a project. This prevents multiple requirements from being generated.

Constraints

You can only deliver material components that have a material number. You cannot deliver material components that only have a text description.

You must have activated requirements for the material components to be delivered.

You cannot deliver materials that are marked for deletion.

You cannot deliver materials that are defined as assembly items (negative requirement quantity). If you want to deliver components that are assembled in a network, you must assign them to a subsequent activity with positive requirements quantities and deliver them from this activity.

You cannot extend deliveries that you have already created with items that have a reference to a reservation (similar to deliveries in shipping without reference to a sales order). To deliver further material components that have been assigned to a project, you should create a new delivery.

You can copy third-party orders from a network, directly procured components and components that are backflushed to the delivery document, but you cannot post a goods movement by posting a goods issue of the delivery. For such components only one pro forma goods issue is carried out via the delivery.

Hope it helps.

Thanks & Regards

Dear Kishore,

Thanks for your explanation.

My question is that How the System determines the FOREIGN TRADE DATA at the Delivery Header & Item.

In my case, system is able to create a delivery based on a project, but in the delivery the Foreign Trade data is not getting populated.

I want to understand the settings we need to do for getting the Default FOREIGN TRADE DATA populated at the Delivery Header & Item.

What is the origin of the FOREIGN TRADE DATA in the delivery documents ?
