Relationship of R/3 Shipping to WM 

When an R/3 Shipping component is connected to the R/2 host in conjunction with an R/3 Warehouse Management system, all deliveries are processed in WM in exactly the same manner as in the integrated system. For complete information about this topic, see Goods Issues Based on a Delivery.

General Process

In the R/2 system you create material master records and delivery documents based on sales orders or scheduling agreements.

  1. The section R/2 ® R/3 Processes explains how material master records are sent to the R/3 System for further processing.
  2. Delivery documents are also transmitted to the R/3 System to be processed in the SD and WM components.
  3. When the processing is complete, the communication documents with the completed delivery data are retransmitted to the R/2 System.

To post goods issues for deliveries WM supports the random picking technique.
