Transfer Order for Multiple Outbound Delivery (SAP Library

Transfer Order for Multiple Outbound Deliveries

Use

You create a transfer order (TO) for several outbound deliveries in order to optimize the picking processes within the warehouse, or if you want to collectively process several outbound deliveries of the same material in the Warehouse Management system (WMS), each with only one or only a few outbound delivery items.

Prerequisites

There are several different outbound deliveries for which you want to create a TO for multiple deliveries.

Features

The system supports the same functions for a transfer order for multiple deliveries as for the conventional transfer order.

Activities

You create a TO for multiple deliveries

Using the function module L_TO_CREATE_DN_MULTIPLE

You select the outbound deliveries using this function module and then directly create a TO for multiple outbound deliveries for the selected outbound deliveries.

For a group of outbound deliveries using transaction Create Transfer Order for Multiple Deliveries. To do this, choose Logistics ® Logistics Execution ® Outbound Process ® Goods Issue for Outbound Delivery ® Picking ® Create Transfer Order ® For Multiple Deliveries.

For more information on creating a group, see Creating a Group.

After you have created a transfer order for multiple deliveries, you can split it into smaller transfer orders according to certain criteria (for example volume, weight or TO items), so that several pickers can process these smaller transfer orders. To do this, use user exit MWMTO012.

Constraints

Note the following constraints:

You cannot immediately confirm a transfer order for multiple deliveries
You cannot adjust the pick quantity of a delivery when you create a transfer order
Activating delayed delivery update in order to implement the functions of transfer orders for multiple deliveries
If you create a transfer order using multiple processing (via Logistics ® Logistics Execution ® Outbound Process ® Goods Issue for Outbound Delivery ® Picking ® Create Transfer Order ® Collective Processing in the SAP menu), then you can only create the transfer order in the background
