Web Screens for ASNs

The Web application menu of SAP Supply Network Collaboration (SAP SNC) has various role-specific views with Web screens for customers, suppliers, and goods recipients. You can use these screens for displaying and processing advanced shipping notifications (ASNs). You can only display ASNs in the goods recipient view.

Features

ASN Overview

The overview contains a list of the ASNs that you have selected according to specific criteria. You can execute the following functions in the ASN overview:

As supplier, you can create an ASN by copying an existing ASN.
As customer, you can post a complete goods receipt for an ASN or set an ASN to Closed.

You can navigate from the ASN overview to the ASN details.

In the standard system, the overview can display a maximum of 100 ASNs. If there are more than 100 ASNs for the selection criteria in the system, the overview displays a message. You can set the user-specific maximum number in the User Maintenance (SU01) transaction using the SET/GET parameter /SCA/DM_DLV_MAXROW.

ASN Details

This view displays the detailed data for an ASN. You can execute the following functions in the ASN details:

As supplier, you can switch to the change mode for a modifiable ASN and continue processing the ASN (see Changing ASNs). You can perform the following activities, for example:
- Add, change, or delete ASN items
- Call the packing function (see also Packing)
As customer, as in the ASN overview, you can manually post a goods receipt for the ASN here or set the ASN to Closed.

As customer and as supplier, you can create notes for the ASN at header and item level (see also Notes).

Create ASN

This view is only available for suppliers. In this view, you have to manually enter a reference document for which you create the ASN. In the due lists (see below), SAP SNC adopts the purchasing document automatically in the ASN. For more information, see Creating ASNs Manually in SAP SNC.

ASN History

The ASN history is available for customers and suppliers. In the ASN history, you can display old versions of an ASN. You can follow goods receipts, for example. The Transfer Type field shows how an ASN was created in SAP SNC:

Manually in SAP SNC (M)
Via transfer of the ASN to SAP SNC (X)

Due Lists and Receipts/Requirements List

The following lists are available:

Due Lists
The due lists are available for customers and suppliers. The due lists provide an overview of the demands for which the supplier has not yet initiated a delivery or not yet published an ASN. The following due lists are available: A due list for planned receipts that is relevant to the SMI scenario, and a due list for purchasing documents that contains purchase orders, replenishment orders, and scheduling agreement releases with due schedule lines (see also Determining Due Schedule Lines). In the due lists, you, as supplier, can create an ASN specifically for a planned receipt or a purchasing document with due schedule lines (see also Creating ASNs Manually in SAP SNC).
Receipts/Requirements List
The receipts/requirements list is available for customers, suppliers, and goods recipients. It displays a list of receipts (ASNs and supplier confirmations) and requirements (purchase orders, replenishment orders, and scheduling agreement releases).

For more information, see Receipts and Requirements.

Visible ASNs

The ASNs that a user can see on the ASN processing Web UI in the standard system depends on the set selection mode (see also Visible Master Data and Transaction Data). For the service parts management business scenario, you must always use the ODM_xxx selection mode (see also Processing ASNs in Service Parts Management).
