hi,

u can configure automatic packing in delivery....

In customization set automatic packing in delivery customization

Step 1:

Path :

Spro> LE> Shipping> Deliveries> Define Delivery Types

check there the automatic check box.

Step 2:

Create packing instructions in POP1 trancsaction (all u need is VERP type material to pack and any other material which is to be packedcreate thse in MM01 transaction)

Create packing determination in POF1 transaction. (determaination type is SHIP -if u wantto pack outbound delivery and if u want to pack inbound then it is RCPT).

when u will craete delivery ,it will be packed automatically.

One of the method is through BADI trough an ABAPer or

you have to do either of these 2:

1 - Indicate a packing proposal from your sales order

2 - Maintain a "packing instruction" master data

Depending on your release, I would rather use the BADIs (SE18) for packing. There are a number of them. We started out using the SMOD customer function, but later migrated to the BADIs. I would recommend doing that as that is the way SAP is

going.<a href="http://www.sap-img.com/sap-hu.htm">automatic packaging</a>

Hi

The "Packing Process" with an Example

Example:

You created a order for a material(R-1160 - hard disks) for a qty - 120 pieces.

You need to create a delivery and

A)pack 40 pieces each of the material are grouped together into larger cardboard boxes (PK-100 - shipping/packing material) and

B)these 3 cardboard boxes are put into pallet (PK-095).

Solution:

A)Packing 40 pieces each of material (40 x 3 = 120 pieces)

1)Goto [VL02N] to change the delivery, you already created.

Or you can do the following steps while you are creating a delivery also.

2)Go to "pack" icon.

3)In the upper section, enter the "packing material" (PK-100)

4)In the lower section, change the "partial quantity" to 40 of material R-1160.

5)Select both the lines of upper section and lower section and click the green ok. It generates a shipping unit/handling unit number.

6)Now, select both lines of upper & lower section & click the button "per part. qty" (New HU per part qty of material)

Check: click "General Overview" icon to see whether it packed 40 pieces of material in 3 cartons.

B)Packing all 3 cartons in one big carton(PK-095)

1) from above screen, click "pack HUs" (pack shipping unit)

2)enter the packaging material (PK-095) in the upper section and select this line.

3)select 3 lines of PK-100 in lower section since you want to pack them in PK-095.

4)selecting both lines, click "pack" icon.

5)Now all the 3 cartons(PK-100 with 40 pieces each of material) are packed in one big carton (PK-095).

Check: "General overview" icon.

Then "save" the delivery.
