Sending Picking Requests 

You can use the IDOC SDPIOD01 to transfer the data in the picking list to an external system for each shipping point.

Message determination must be modified in the Sales and Distribution customizing application for this purpose. The message EKSU is assigned with the medium 8 and the parameter "External system" (logical system) to the shipping point instead of the message EK00 which refers to the picking list. This activates the transfer procedure to the external system. Additionally, it is important to maintain the partner profile output for the message type PICKSD.

The IDOC SDPIOD01 comprises the segments E2VPPIH (header data) and E2VPPII (item data). The structure of these is described below.

The inputs in the fields correspond to the definition in the delivery document.

The SAP System creates a picking request for each delivery document. This determines, for the most part, the materials and quantities to be picked at this time and this data is passed on to the external system with the IDOC SDPIOD01. If an item is created in the delivery document later or if an amount is increased in an old item, a new picking request is created for the changes and then transmitted.


If you are sending delivery documents and picking verifications to SAP, you can no longer work with the random picking technique in the Warehouse Management module WM, that is, no transfer orders for deliveries can be created. If you still want to manage your materials in WM, this will only work with the picking technique "Fixed storage bin". In this case, the stock is deducted directly in the respective fixed storage bin when the goods issue for the delivery item takes place (for more information on the picking techniques, refer to the online documentation in WM).
