Defining Conditions for VAS Template Determination 

Use

You define determination condition tables in Customizing for Logistics Execution → Warehouse Management → Value-Added Services → VAS Template Determination. After subsequently entering values in these tables, you determine which VAS templates apply in which circumstances. When the conditions are met, the system creates a VAS order based on the applicable template.

 

Procedure

...

       1.      In Customizing, use existing condition tables, or create a new one, to define a combination of fields on which VAS templates will be determined.

For more information, see the IMG for Logistics Execution → Warehouse Management → Value-Added Services → VAS Template Determination → Define Key for VAS Template Determination.

If you want to create a VAS template for specific materials being delivered by a specific vendor, use table 400, which has Material and Vendor as the selected fields.

       2.      In Customizing, define access sequences, which are search strategies employed by the system to retrieve determination records (as defined in 1 above) for a VAS template determination type.

For more information, see the IMG for Logistics Execution → Warehouse Management → Value-Added Services → VAS Template Determination → Define Access Sequence for VAS Template Determination

You may define an access sequence whereby the system searches for VAS templates:

                                                  i.       Firstly by material and customer;

                                                ii.       Subsequently, only via the customer

       3.      In Customizing, define specific determination types and assign to them access sequences.

For more information, see the IMG for Logistics Execution → Warehouse Management → Value-Added Services → VAS Template Determination → Define Determination Type for VAS Template.

You may define determination types for inbound VAS processing (processing inbound materials) and internal VAS processing (processing existing stock, such as re-palletizing to standard pallets). Each of these determination types may have different access sequences.

       4.      In Customizing, define procedures for VAS template determination. Each procedure may comprise of one or more determination types in a specified order.

For more information, see the IMG for Logistics Execution → Warehouse Management → Value-Added Services → VAS Template Determination → Define Procedure for VAS Template Determination.

       5.      In Customizing, define number ranges for VAS template determination records as defined previously.

For more information, see the IMG for Logistics Execution → Warehouse Management → Value-Added Services → VAS Template Determination → Define Number Ranges for VAS Template Determination Records.

 

Result

You have defined determination conditions. You can now enter values for these conditions and assign to them VAS templates.
