Hi,

Creation of sales order: VA01

Creation of delivery: VL01N

Post goods issue done in delivery only.

Creation of invoice: VF01

You create an order with reference to the customer for a particular material with all the necessary details, like material number, quantities,etc

Then with the help of availability check you see when is the particular material be made available to the particular order.

Then you create the outbound delivery and post goods issue, while you send the material to the customer.

Transportation shipment documents, optional, can be generated to calculate the route and mode of shipment to the customer.

Finally you create the commercial and excise invoice for the particular material with respect to the order.

Then you post this invoice to the accounting dept.

regards,

Siddharth.
