Entry Document Split 
This function enables you to split an entry document. This means that you create two or more new entry documents from an entry document.

Dirty cans of paint accumulate at a waste generator’s, which are collected in a central accumulation point. An entry document is created for the waste Dirty paint cans, which contains all the required data (for example, account assignment data). The waste is treated in the accumulation point and separated into empty cans and paint residues. This produces two new wastes that have to be disposed of separately. The entry document that was originally created is then split. Two new entry documents are created, which contain the wastes Can and Paint residues. The waste generator and the account assignment data are automatically transferred to the new entry documents when the original document is split, a reference to the original waste generator being produced.
You can execute this function for all entry documents that have not yet been cleared, which means that you can also execute it for entry documents for which the post, post change, or storage bin transfer function has been executed.
The entry document to be split contains a waste quantity.
The split entry document is given the system status Closed.
If the
split entry document has already been posted, the waste quantity from
inventory
management and, if required, from
warehouse
management too is cleared.
New entry documents are created, which are copies of the split entry document. The following data is not transferred to the copies:
· Waste
· Waste quantity
· Batch
· Container number and container unit
· Waste management business partner assignments
The waste in the split entry document is transferred to the new entry documents as the original material. As a result, the waste origin is documented (see Entering the Waste Origin).
A follow-on document record is created for the split entry document. As a result, the whereabouts of the waste from the split entry document are documented.
If the total of the waste quantities that you entered in the new entry documents does not match the waste quantity in the split entry document, a warning is displayed.
If the split entry document has already been posted, the new entry documents are also posted provided that you entered the data required for posting when the document was split (see Post). The following data is posted:
· The waste quantity is posted to the stock type you entered.
· The waste quantity is posted to the storage location you entered.
·
The waste
quantity is posted to the
storage bin you
entered.
