  Pickup and Account Assignment

Use

Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) supports goods issue for the pickup. Goods issue for the pickup can be planned or unplanned.

Integration

If you work with a planned pickup, you generate an outbound delivery in SAP ERP. SAP ERP sends this to EWM. EWM generates a corresponding outbound delivery order. This contains the account assignment information from SAP ERP. You cannot change this account assignment information in EWM.

If you work with an unplanned pickup, you generate a direct outbound delivery order in EWM. EWM transmits this to SAP ERP. SAP ERP generates a corresponding outbound delivery that contains the account assignment information from EWM. You can change the account assignment information in EWM.

You can assign one or more account assignments to a delivery item. In account assignment, you define account assignment objects that are posted during an outbound delivery for a product that goes directly to consumption.

Prerequisites

  • You have defined the account assignment categories in Customizing for EWM.If you want to use a particular account assignment category for planned or unplanned goods issues with accounts assigned in a warehouse number, you have assigned this to a warehouse number.For more information, see the Implementation Guide (IMG) for EWM under Start of the navigation path Goods Issue Process Next navigation step Outbound Delivery Next navigation step Define Account Assignment Category and Allow in Warehouse Number. End of the navigation path

    You can also perform planned goods issues with account assignment without an assignment such as this. Although no account assignment category is then saved in the outbound delivery order, EWM posts the goods movement on the account assignment object.

  • If you want to work with unplanned goods issues, you have retrieved the data of the relevant account assignment object from SAP ERP in Customizing for EWM ( Administration of Account Assignment Data ).

  • You have defined a process profile for the pickup in Customizing for EWM.For more information, see the IMG for EWM under Start of the navigation path Cross-Process Settings Next navigation step Delivery Processing Next navigation step Process Management and Control. End of the navigation path

  • You have defined a status profile for the pickup in Customizing for EWM.For more information, see the IMG for EWM under Start of the navigation path Cross-Process Settings Next navigation step Delivery Processing Next navigation step Status Management Next navigation step Define Status Profiles.

  • In Customizing for EWM, you have defined your own document and item types for each of your processes, such as document type OPIG Outbound delivery order for pickup and item type ODPG Standard item outbound delivery for pickup .

Features

  • Unplanned pickup

    You can create, change, or delete the account assignment information in unplanned outbound delivery orders for the pickup until goods issue has been posted.

    When you create or change a direct outbound delivery order, EWM performs a validation and displays any warning messages accordingly. The validation checks the type of account assignment category and its uniqueness for each delivery item. It also checks the type of the existing account assignment object. If you are using more than one account assignment object for a delivery item, only one account assignment object is permitted to be non-static. This is to avoid a duplicate allocation. The account assignment object always refers to the complete delivery quantity of a delivery item. It does not consider partial quantities.

  • Planned pickup

    You cannot create, change, or delete the account assignment data in planned outbound delivery orders for the pickup.

    EWM performs a validation when it activates a planned outbound delivery request, to provide you with information. The validation checks the type of account assignment category and its uniqueness for each delivery item. It also checks the type of the existing account assignment object. Here, only one account assignment object is permitted to be non-static. This is to avoid a duplicate allocation.

You can request account assignment data using a report from SAP ERP periodically ( Administration of Account Assignment Data ).

You can use Business Add-In (BAdI) BAdI: Validation of Account Assignment Data of Delivery Item , to implement additional checks.For more information, see the IMG for EWM under Start of the navigation path Business Add-Ins (BAdIs) for Extended Warehouse Management Next navigation step Cross-Process Settings Next navigation step Delivery Processing Next navigation step Validation Within Delivery Next navigation step BAdI: Validation of Account Assignment Data of Delivery Item. End of the navigation path
