Object documentationNotification of Expected Goods Receipt

 

A document in the inbound delivery process that copies all relevant logistics data from the initiator of the inbound delivery process, such as data of a purchase order or a manufacturing order.

An expected goods receipt is generated out of a notification of expected goods receipt.

 

You use notification of expected goods receipt to save logistics data transferred from an open purchase order or manufacturing order, and to generate an expected goods receipt from it.

For more information, see Using Expected Goods Receipts.

Integration

The execution of the actions depends on the settings in the post processing framework. For more information, see Post Processing Framework in Delivery Processing.

The following configuration exists in the standard system:

  • The delivery process receives a message from a reference document with all the relevant logistics data. SAP Extended Warehouse Management (SAP EWM) automatically generates a notification of expected goods receipt from this message. In the notification, SAP EWM saves the information contained in the message.

  • Changing an existing expected goods receipt:

If an inactive notification (inactive version) exists in SAP EWM, you can generate a new expected goods receipt by activating the inactive notification manually.
