Process documentationDelivery Split

 

When goods are loaded in SAP Extended Warehouse Management (SAP EWM), warehouse workers may only be able to load a fraction of the planned quantity on to the truck. One reason for this may be that the truck is different to the one planned and has a lower capacity. This generates a delivery split in SAP ERP and also impacts the freight order in SAP Transportation Management (SAP TM).

Process

  1. When loading the truck, warehouse workers can only load some of the overall quantity and have to leave an entire delivery item or freight unit.

  2. The warehouse workers record the departure of the transportation unit from the yard in SAP EWM.

  3. SAP EWM reports the change in quantity or the delivery items that are not included (or both) automatically to SAP TM using the message LoadingAppointmentNotification.

  4. In SAP TM, the quantity in the freight unit is automatically reduced or the missing items are deleted. If required, the system also splits the freight unit. This means that the system reduces the quantity in the original freight unit and creates an additional freight unit with the remaining quantity. You must then reschedule this freight unit. The system assigns the new freight unit to the split delivery.

    If the warehouse workers could not include an item, SAP TM sets the remaining quantity to zero. If necessary, the system splits the freight unit.
