Function documentationClosing ASN Items

 

You do not expect any more changes to an item of an advanced shipping notification (ASN) for which you may only have received one partial delivery until now, and you regard the delivery as complete. In this case, you can close the ASN item in SAP Supply Network Collaboration (SAP SNC). The consequences of this are as follows:

  • The ASN item acquires the delivery status Closed.

  • SAP SNC removes the undelivered item quantity from the in-transit quantity.

If all items in an ASN in SAP SNC have the status Closed, SAP SNC also automatically sets the status Closed for the ASN header.

Features

You can close an ASN item as follows:

  • Manually in SAP SNC

    In ASN processing in SAP SNC, you can manually close an ASN with the status Published or Partial Goods Receipt. When you call this function, SAP SNC first closes all ASN items that have the status Published or Partial Goods Receipt. If all ASN items acquire the status Closed as a result, SAP SNC also sets the status Closed for the ASN header. If you want to execute the function, you choose Close in the ASN overview or in the ASN details.

  • SAP SNC system administrators can also close ASNs with the status Published or Partial Goods Receipt using a report. For more information, see Closing ASNs in System Administration.

    Caution Caution

    Manual closing only has an effect in SAP SNC. SAP SNC does not send a message to the back-end system of the customer or supplier.

    End of the caution.
