SD config for new Plant code in SAP

[former_member431487]

Hello Experts,

We have a new requirement. One of our plants has reached its capacity so we are going to create a new Plant. In SAP SD we will be creating a new Shipping Point for the new Plant and we will use existing Sales Org and Company Code.

Would appreciate if you could guide me as to what all settings we need to take care of in SD in such a scenario like how can we transfer all open orders/deliveries from existing Plant to new Plant and if any other master data (other than Plant in CMIR, customer master, material master) / config settings need to be done to enable this process.

Regards,

Karan

Hello Karan,

>>> We have a new requirement. One of our plants has reached its capacity so we are going to create a new Plant. In SAP SD we will be creating a new Shipping Point for the new Plant and we will use existing Sales Org and Company Code.

I don't understand why you create new shipping point ? I believe you can use old shipping point.

You should consider below points.

Assignment:

Assign Plant to Company

Assign Plant to Sales Org & Distribution channel.

You can assign New plant to Old Shipping Point.

Change configuration:

Change the shipping point determination.

Change the Picking determination.

Change Master Data:

Change Delivery Plant in CMIR

Change Delivery Plant in CMR.

Change Delivery Palnt in MMR.

I believe Batch management check box also be consider.

Update Documents.

You can not change Plant at delivery and Billing level. If any open delivery is exist then cancel it and then change the Plant in SO

change the Plant in Sales Order.

karan,

in addition to siva's post -

how can we transfer all open orders/deliveries from existing Plant to new Plant and if any other master data (other than Plant in CMIR, customer master, material master) / config settings need to be done to enable this process.

testing end to end process with new plant will give you the accurate picture.

what works and what more needs to be done.

- any pricing, output condition records need to be created?

- stock to be uploaded, in new plant

- after stock available, you can change the delivering plant in open orders

- can you change the plant in delivery only? (i.e. order and delivery have different plants)

Hi TW,

Thanks for such a quick reply.

Can you tell me if there are any program available for mass data upload for data migration to the new plant. Also, what all data needs to be considered for data migration?

Thanks,

Karan

Hi Siva,

Thanks for such a quick reply.

In VA05 we need to give master data (customer, material etc) to get open orders for a particular sales org. Is there any way to get all open orders/deliveries for a Plant without giving any master data specific details?

Regards,

Karan
