Definition

Sales area data required for the service parts management processes.

Use

  • Letter of Credit Required

    This field is part of the sales data and indicates that business transactions involving the business partner in question require a letter of credit (LoC).

    The field is evaluated in order processing and passed to Global Trade Services (GTS). A check is made during clearance as to whether a letter of credit is required, and if so whether it exists and whether the conditions specified in it are met.

  • External remanufacturer

    For business partners with the Remanufacturer role, you can set the External Remanufacturer indicator to distinguish between an internal remanufacturer (plant) and external remanufacturer.

  • Maximum Number of Partial Deliveries

    A numeric fields available in the shipping data, which is used together with the Partial Delivery Allowed indicator. It indicates the maximum number of partial deliveries allowed to satisfy the order quantity for an item. This value is defaulted in the sales order from the ship-to party and can be overwritten.

    The maximum number controls the following:

    • The deliveries from each facility independently: If an item is shipped, for example, from three different locations, and the maximum number is two, this could result in six shipments for the item. The overall limit of two is only met when the item is shipped from one location.

    • The number of deliveries in SAP ECC: When the delivery is passed to warehouse management, the warehouse is not allowed to perform further splits.
