Entering Packing Proposals

In the component supplier industry, there are normally regulations on how and in what quantity a material is to be packed. The packing proposal function allows you to quickly and flexibly pack materials for delivery.

If a packing proposal is not sent by the customer in the intermediate document (IDoc), you can enter the proposal manually in the scheduling agreement:

  1. In the Rounding quantity field in the item overview screen, specify how much of an item is to be packed in one shipping unit.

  2. The system will then round quantities so that only complete shipping units are delivered. If you do not want to round up to complete shipping units, set this quantity to zero.

  3. Choose Start of the navigation path Extras Next navigation step Packing proposal. End of the navigation path

If you have entered a value in the Rounding quantity field, the system copies it to the Pack items screen.

Standard packing functions are also available for scheduling agreements with delivery schedules.
