Packing (SAP Library - Goods Receipt Process for Inbound Deliveries)

Packing

Implementation Options

Packing is part of delivery- and shipment processing. When you process a delivery, you can select delivery items for packing and assign them to handling units (HUs).

Range of Functions

As an example, you could pack delivery items in boxes, pack the boxes on pallets for delivery to the customer, and load the pallets onto a truck.

The Packing component and related packing information enables you to:

Update the stock situation of packing materials
Monitor returnable packaging stocks at the customer's or forwarding agent's place of business
Help you find you what was in a particular container (for example, if a customer maintains that they have received an incomplete delivery)
Make sure that the weight and volume limits have been adhered to
Ensure that products have been packed correctly
