Create and Edit VAS Orders 

Use

If, for example, your supplier ships products to you packaged, however you notice in the goods receipt area that the products are not packaged, you can use this function to create VAS orders manually. If you notice that a VAS order does not have a work center, for example, you can also use this function to change this data. You can also use this function to print out VAS orders again and to delete VAS orders.

Integration

If you want to implement VAS orders using process-oriented storage control, see the Implementation Guide (IMG) for Extended Warehouse Management under Cross-Process Settings ® Value-Added Services (VAS) ® VAS Integration with Storage Control.

Prerequisites

An inbound delivery or outbound delivery exists.

A corresponding packaging specification exists (see also: Packaging Specification).

If you want to implement automatic packaging specification determination, you have already specified a determination procedure for packaging specifications in Customizing. For more information, see the IMG for Extended Warehouse Management under Cross-Process Settings ® Value-Added Services (VAS) ® Define Relevance for VAS.

The system creates a VAS activity in the VAS order for each level of the packaging specification.

To find the Entity in the packaging specification, double-click the level and then choose the Warehouse tab page.
