hi Gurus

i have one problem that my client has a product -milk 1 litre pouch & another material is Returnable packaging -CRATE

now i want to pack that milk 1 lit into CRATE

so that the system automatically take the conversion factor that 12 milk pouch(1 lit) = 1 CRATE

HI Amol,

--->First you maintain the Packing material data in the Material master >Basic data 1->Packing materials data for the material MILK.

-

---

>Do the Itemcategory determination with the combination of Itemcategory group LEIH

If you want pack at Sales order level you do Item category determination like this.

Sales document type+LEIH--->Item category

If you want pack at delivery level you fallow the as Durga already mentioned.

Delivery type+LEIH---->Item category.

-->Standard Itecategory is TAL for Returnble package shipment,so copy the that or you can assign same one.

-->Maintain the pricing for the Returnable package that is CRATE in the VK11.

--->You can pick up the CRATES from the customer through the LA document type.

--->If the customer not having or not return the CRATES you can issue the CRATES tthrough the LN document type.

Here the price will come based on the which you have maintained in the VK11 for the CRATE.

--->Create invoice with reference of the Issue document.

-->Before going to create Sales order or Delivery you should have proper stock of the CRATES in your plant.

I hope it will help you,

Hi Amol..

Normally we are doing packing for the standar material in the delivery at that time system is determining Item category is some XXXX for that material so system is raising the billing for that packing material in the invoice.. This is happening by doing Item category determination in delivery level..

The same thing u need to follow in this scenarion do the item category determination in the delivery level

LF LEIH TAL

Then enter the CRATE in Delivery level for packing purpose automatically system is picking TAL itemcategory then system will not raise any invoice for that material.

If the material is not coming return in time then u can follow the same process wat u r following in the Returnable packing Material

I.e Returnable Packing Pick up ( LA ) if it i returned

If it is not retuned Issue ( LN )..

I hope this will work,

Rewards, if it is usefull..

Automatically system will pick packing material how many u required Ex: 12 pouches = 1crate
