Consequences of Changes during Goods Receipt  

Use

At time of goods receipt, one of several scenarios may occur:

●      Complete delivery

●      Partial delivery

●      Partial delivery with DCI (delivery complete indicator)

●      Late delivery (for example, past the cancellation date)

●      Complete delivery, but materials are different from those originally ordered (for example, change of category)

The standard allocation strategy depends on a determination table. A BAdI is available if individual parameters are required (for example, if certain materials or customers will always be completely deallocated).

The standard strategy includes the following options:

●      Batch horizon

Batches are only accepted if the confirmed date minus the goods receipt date (today’s date) is less than the batch horizon.

●      Storage location, batch number, DCI (delivery complete indicator)

If you activate these checks, the system will deallocate the corresponding assignment whenever the check fails (for example, stock is not available in the storage location you requested).

●      Sort rule

In case of a deallocation, for example, those requirements with the latest open-to-deliver date will be deallocated first.

●      Exception handling

The system generates exceptions when it encounters problems during goods receipt so you can review them afterwards.
