LIPS-VGPOS for Material Determination

[Former Member]

Dear All,

We are creating an outbound delivery for a sales order with material determination line items.

In the delivery we are not getting the reference sub item number but its getting reference main item number for sub item.

Example:

Sales Order:     570000034                                             

Item No.(POSNR)         Material(MATNR)     Item Category(PSTYV)

10                                 A1                           YTAX

11                                 B1                           YTAP

Note: Sub Item(11) is relevant for pricing and billing

Delivery:  32002255

Item No.(POSNR)         Material(MATNR)     Item Category(PSTYV)     Ref Doc(VGBEL)          Ref Item(VGPOS)

10                                 A1                           YTAX                              570000034                       10                             

20                                 B1                           YTAP                              570000034                       10

We need VGPOS as 11 for sub item in the above example.

Checked copy control VTLA , check box copy item number...but didnt get it.

Kindly do the needfull.

Hi Azeez,

In copy control routine FV50C101 in VTLA, vgbel and vgpos are copied from vbeln and posnr. Did you check this as well?

Hi Azeez,

you shouldn't change the VGBEL or VGPOS in LIPS.

The correct VGBEL and VGPOS ( correct according to the technical definition of SAP, not according to your business definition ) is necessary for the document flow, status handling, ...

For instance if you change this, SAP could think the item no 11 is still open, set wrong status or calculate a wrong credit value.

The pricing can happen in the sales order and be COPIED from the sales order to the invoice.

If you really need to have the item number of the text in the delivery for anythiny you have a separate field to indicate the header item for any BOM-Item in the delivery.

You could also use a Z-field to LIPS.
