VOE4 ship-to issue

[Former Member]

Hi,

We have two businesses both with different sales areas.  Our partner that trades with these businesses via EDI, sends the same ship to code in their ORDERS05 inbound idoc (E1EDKA1-LIFNR field).   VOE4 only allows one entry for a ship to per code & customer and it is not sales area specific.  How can I have the setup so that both these idocs create a order with the same customer but different ship tos.  VOE2 is populated correctly for both sales areas.  Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Ahmed

Hi Ahmed,

Let me know if i understood you correctly.

As per the standard process, inside Inbound IDOC ship to party should be sent

e.g.

E1EDKA1 AG - Sold to party

E1EDKA1 LF - Vendor

E1EDKA1 WE - Ship to Party

Now after this, it will check for the AG and Vendor in EDSDC and will pick Sales Area and Doc Type from there are create the order.

Now in your case you are saying that instead of WE, partner is sending AG only and you want to change it in your SAP system.

Then for that inside the processing routine for that idoc, you can write your code to change the E1EDKA1 WE segment as per you want. (Maintain a Z table accordingly and it can fetch the data from there.)
