Creating Charitable Transfers

Prerequisites

A subscriber to your company (or to an external company in the case of external delivery orders) requests that his newspaper be delivered to a social facility during his vacation. You record this limited free change to delivery, which at first does not have a specific ship-to party, as a charitable transfer.

If you select the Inactive Items indicator in Customizing for Periodical Sales and Distribution , you can also execute this function if the order item has been terminated or there is an unlimited suspension.

Procedure

  1. Select the item in the item overview or call up the item data on the item to be changed.

    See Changing Subscription Orders and Changing External Delivery Orders

  2. Choose Transfer or Start of the navigation path Edit Next navigation step Change Functions Next navigation step Charitable Transfer End of the navigation path .

    The maintenance screen for the change item appears.

    Note Note

    The parameters of the delivery viability set (edition, mix type, and delivery type) are copied from the original item and cannot be changed.

    End of the note.

  3. Enter the following data:

    • Period for charitable transfer ( Valid from/to )

    • Purchase reason

  4. Save the changed order.

Result

The charitable transfer is included periodically in the existing charitable transfer distribution orders (this is done by means of the function Distribute charitable transfers ). The system distributes all charitable transfers valid on the current shipping date to the social facilities specified as ship-to parties in the transfer distribution orders.
