Last Deliveries

You post inbound deliveries relating to OLTP and APO scheduling agreements in the SAP R/3 or OLTP system.

In the SAP R/3 system (Automotive) or SAP APO system you can inform your vendor of up to nine last deliveries with the scheduling agreement (SA) release.

At the time of release creation, the system determines the last deliveries relating to the SA item in question and includes them in the SA release. This provides the vendor with more exact information about which deliveries you have already received at the time of release creation (that is, which data the SA release is based on).

In the case of APO scheduling agreements, the last deliveries are transferred from the SAP R/3 system to the SAP APO system via CIF.

For more information about inbound deliveries in the SAP R/3 system, see the documentation for Logistics under Logistics Execution (LE) → Goods Receipt Process for Inbound Delivery

Goods Receipt and Invoice/Credit Memo

You post goods and invoice receipt relating to OLTP and APO scheduling agreements in the SAP R/3 system. This information is displayed in the purchase order (PO) history of both the SAP R/3 system and the SAP APO system.

Since there should be no superfluous PO history in SAP APO (that is data that is already present in SAP R/3), the data is newly imported from the SAP R/3 system by Remote Function Call (RFC) each time it is needed.

In the standard system, you can either receive invoices or use the Evaluated Receipt Settlement procedure (ERS) for the automatic settlement of goods receipts using credit memos.

For more information about the posting of goods receipts and invoices, see the documentation for Inventory Management (MM-IM) and Logistics Invoice Verification (MM-IV), section Evaluated Goods Receipt (ERS) .

SAP R/3 System

In the delivery schedule of the SAP R/3 system, the inbound delivery requires a confirmation control key that provides for shipping notifications.

Inbound delivery, goods and invoice receipt must already have taken place in the SAP R/3 system.

For more information about the prerequisites, see Prerequisites for the OLTP Scheduling Agreement and Prerequisites for the APO Scheduling Agreement .

SAP R/3 System (as of DI 4.6C1)

You can display the status of the inbound delivery (which is specified during parking with multi-level automotive goods receipt in the linked SAP R/3 system) in the SAP APO system. If an inbound delivery is registered the system assigns it the status In Plant . This status is displayed in the confirmation overview for the scheduling agreement.

This status is transferred from the SAP R/3 system to the SAP APO system via APO Core Interface(APO-CIF) at the same time as the inbound delivery.

The registered inbound delivery with the status In Plant is displayed in the SAP APO system in the product view/product planning table. The category of the inbound delivery changes from PO memo to In Plant .

This category can be taken into account the receipt days’ supply or the (stock) days’ supply is calculated.

The status In Plant is displayed in the last deliveries, which you can reach from the external procurement relationship or the product view/product planning table.

In the release creation profile you can define that the last goods receipts are identified and sent to the vendor in the scheduling agreement release. If you transmit last deliveries in the release then the status of the inbound delivery is included in the print out.

For more information, see the SAP Library for SAP for Discrete Industries under Scheduling Agreement.
