Choose the Customizing activity Specify Copy Control for Deliveries under
Position the cursor on the delivery type LF and the sales document type OR .
Choose the details view and make your changes. For example, you could enter 001-SchedAgrmnt
→ Dlv in the
Data transfer HU
field. Save your changes.
To ensure that the system copies the packing proposal into the delivery, proceed as follows:
Create a sales order and enter the individual order items.
Choose

To do so, choose packing dialog .
in theIf you have made the settings as described above under prerequisites, the packing proposal is automatically copied from a standard order during creation of a delivery . The delivery then creates a handling unit from this packing proposal if the delivery items can be packed.
