Purpose

You can use a value-added service order (VAS order) to perform value-added services (VAS) in the warehouse through VAS activities, and to document them. Typical VAS activities are assembling products, packing products, labeling, or kitting. Here, both the goods receipt process and the goods issue process in the warehouse change. In an ideal case, you can then use process-oriented storage control to execute interim steps before final putaway or before staging in the goods issue area. In these interim steps, the VAS order defines which product processing must be performed by warehouse employees in the work centers, for example. You can also use a VAS order in the goods issue process to assemble kits for your customers, and to pack them on a customer-specific basis using this VAS order.
