ASN Processing in ICH

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am designing an interface that will create ASNs in ICH. The data flow is:

Legacy -> XI -> SCM/ICH

I have come across 2 message types: DeliveryInformation and DespatchedDeliveryNotification for this. I plan to use the inbound ABAP proxy for ASN creation. I have 2 questions -

1. Which one of these is the correct message type for ASN creation?

2. The legacy generates a file once every day with ALL open ASNs. As a result the interface must read existing ASNs in ICH and then based on the ASN no either update or insert the ASNs received from the legacy file. Are there any function modules/BAPIs/classes that will extract ASNs from ICH? Also what tables are used for ASN processing in ICH?

Any help will be appreciated!

Thanks

Hi ,

1)Delivery Information should be used only if you are using SPP(Service Parts Planning).Since I assume your process is the standard ICH ,you should use Despatched DeliveryNotification Inbound to create the ASN.

2)No such functionality is available.

Thanks Karthikeyan,

Although the doc explains a few functional aspects, it unfortunately does not answer my questions.
