Settings in Customizing

Depending on the settings in the corresponding serial number profile, it may be necessary to create equipment master records in the delivery. You have the following setting options at your disposal in Customizing:

Equipment is Mandatory

If you specify in a serial number profile that equipment is mandatory, the system, during delivery processing, automatically sets the equipment indicator in the serial number dialog box. When you save the delivery, the system automatically creates corresponding equipment master records for each object where equipment is indicated as mandatory.

Equipment not Mandatory

If equipment is not mandatory for a particular material, the system does not automatically create equipment master records.

It is still possible, however, to set the equipment indicator in the serial number dialog box during delivery processing. To do this, mark the corresponding serial numbers and press Create equipment . The system sets the indicator for the serial numbers you selected. When you save the delivery, the system automatically creates equipment master records for the selected serial numbers.
