Dear nitchel,

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.

Do let me know in case of any queries.

Hope this helps you.

Hi Nitchel

Following are the steps for Handling Units (Packing Process).

1.Define “Packaging Material Type” (SPRO – Logistics Execution – Shipping – Packing – Define Packaging Material Types)

Click on New Entries and create a new one.

Double click on the one you created and give values for the following fields:

Plant determin. :

Pack.matl.cat.

GenerateDlvltms : leave blank

Number Assignment :

2.Define “Material group for Packaging materials” (SPRO – Logistics Execution – Shipping – Packing – Define Material group for Packaging Materials)

Click on New Entries and create a new one . This group is nothing but similar products which require similar packing products.

3.Create Packaging Material (Box) :

Go to MM01 and use material type as “Packaging material” then inside the system will take the item category group as “VERP”.

In Basic Data 1 and Sales:sales org 1 views, you have the “Material group” for packaging material. Choose proper one from the drop down menu.

In Sales:general/plant view, maintain values for “Matl Grp Pack. Matls” and for “Packaging mat. Type”

4.Create Sales Order (VA01)

5.Create delivery (VL01N) for the Sales order. Go to edit – pack – you will face a screen with 2 parts. In the top part you select your packaging material in which you want to pack your finished item, press “enter” and the system will assign a number to that material.

Now select the Material in the top part and the finished one in the lower part and click on the Icon “Pack”. Here one thing has to be taken care of. Suppose if you want to pack only one finished item in one packaging material, then in the lower part of the screen you have a field for partial quantity, here you change it to 1. System will prompt “quantity changed”. Now select the material in the top part and the one in the lower part and click on the “Per Part. Qty” Icon. In this way the system will pack only one finished item in a single packaging material.

6. Packing is done. Go back and select the Picking and do the PGI. Save the delivery and create the Invoice. Click “General Overview” icon to see whether it packed as per the requirement.
