Material Exchange in Replenishment Deliveries

Use

This function is based on the core transaction codeVL10B.For more information on this, see the online help documentation in the SAP Library under my SAP ERP SAP Central Component Logistics Logistics Execution Shipping Delivery Processing Collective Processing of Documents due for Delivery.

If the availability check fails and a delivery is not created, the system tries to create a subitem in the stock transport order with the material that is available. If the availability check fails and the delivery is created with a partial quantity or with a zero quantity, the system creates an error report and the incorrect delivery is displayed on the corresponding tab page.

If the creation of subitems caused errors, the system creates an error report and the stock transport order displayed on the appropriate tab page.
