 Entering a Goods Issue with Reference to an Order

Prerequisites

You enter a goods issue for an order by referencing the relevant order or reservation. To reference the order, proceed as follows:

Procedure

  1. From the Inventory Management menu, select Start of the navigation path Goods Movement Next navigation step Goods Issue Next navigation step . End of the navigation path

  2. This takes you to the initial screen for this function.

  3. On the initial screen, enter the header data.

  4. You need not enter the movement type or the plant, as these are automatically copied from the order.

  5. Choose Start of the navigation path Goods Issue Next navigation step Create w. Reference Next navigation step To Order... Next navigation step . End of the navigation path

  6. A dialog box for selecting the reservation appears.

    So that the system can update the reservation for the order, you must enter the order as a reference on the initial screen. If you first enter the order on the multiple-entry screen or on the item detail screen, the system only handles the order as an account assignment object and not as the reference to the goods movement. The goods issue would therefore be handled as unplanned, and the reservation would not be updated.

    If you know the order number, enter it directly. Using the By-products indicator, you can simultaneously post the goods receipt of planned by-products (refer to Goods Receipt of By-Products ). Using the Choose transaction/event ( Ch.trans/event ) indicator, you can display all transactions/events for an order and choose the transaction/events for which you want to post a goods issue.

    If you do not know the order number, you can search for the corresponding reservation using various selection criteria (refer to Searching for a Reservation Number ).

  7. Copy (adopt) the desired items.

  8. Check data on the overview screen.

  9. Post the document.
