Function documentation Printing Delivery Notes  Locate the document in its SAP Library structure

Use

You use this function in Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) to print delivery notes.

Prerequisites

You have created either an outbound delivery order or an outbound delivery.

Features

EWM prints the delivery note based on the PPF action /SCWM/PRD_OUT_PRINT for an outbound delivery order or /SCWM/FD_OUT_PRINT for an outbound delivery.

      By default, EWM uses the predefined SAP Smart Form /SCWM/DLV_NOTE. However, you can also create your own SAP Smart Form to use when printing the delivery note and for form determination.

      You can also print delivery notes using a PDF-based form. To do this, you must change the assigned processing of the PPF action from Smart Forms Print to External Communication in Customizing for EWM.

For more information about action conditions, see the Implementation Guide (IMG) for EWM under Extended Warehouse Management Cross-Process Settings Delivery Processing Actions Change Actions and Conditions Define Conditions.

EWMautomatically prints the delivery note for an outbound delivery as soon as you have posted the goods issue. You can also use a PPF action to manually print a delivery note for an outbound delivery or outbound delivery order.

Note

For more information about Smart Forms, see the SAP Library under SAP NetWeaver Library SAP NetWeaver by Key Capability Application Platform by Key Capability Business Services Smart Forms.

For more information about form determination, see the IMG for EWM under Extended Warehouse Management Goods Issue Process Outbound Delivery Print Determine Form Determination for Delivery Note Printing.

You can display a preview of the delivery note before printing it.

EWM issues the dangerous goods data when printing the delivery note. In doing so, EWM uses detailed information about the route and means of transport to determine the relevant dangerous goods master records.

For more information about dangerous goods data, see EH&S Services.
