Create Outbound Delivery

To create the Outbound delivery follow the path below:

Logistics > Sales and Distribution > Sales > Order > Subsequent functions > Outbound Delivery

Enter the Sales Order from which the Outbound Delivery has to be generated, enter "LP00" for "International loading point" as Shipping Point. Depending on whether the goods are shipped all together or in partial shipments, select the lines of interest by by entering the line number in the fields 'From item' & 'To item. If no line selection is entered, the system picks up automatically all the material lines in the SO. Click on enter :

The system derives the line items selected from the SO in to the Outbound Delivery as well as the ship-to-party information.

When it is required to issue several deliveries from one SO (e.g. multiple dispatches of wide cargo or due to partial availability of items) the material lines in the SO have to be ordered by ranges representing the lots. Go to "Create Outbound Delivery" thru transaction VL01N to create first delivery from SO; enter the first material of the lot in the “From item” field and the last material of the lot in the “To item” field.

In case the same material has to be shipped out in 2 different lots, when creating the Outbound Delivery decrease the quantity to match with first lot; the system will automatically decrease the required quantity for the forthcoming Outbound Delivery to its balance:

In case the Partner asks for extra materials once the fist lot has left the warehouse, thereof the Good Issue has been posted against the Outbound Delivery, go to "Change Outbound Delivery" thru transaction VL02N, click on Outbound Delivery on the top menu, select Deliver Sales Order and pick the new material codes added on the SO on a later stage.

Fill in the Actual Goods Issue date and enter the Number of Packages (which is the total number of packages on the Packing List) in the Overview screen:

Go back , save the Outbound Delivery:

To complete the Outbound Delivery all the mandatory fields have to be entered; go to "Change Outbound Delivery" thru transaction VL02N, and enter the Outbound Delivery number:

Creation of outbound delivery for direct delivery process

When the sale to a partner regards all or some items that are meant to be delivered to final destination directly from suppliers’ location, the Direct Delivery procedure has to be applied. It should be considered that even if it is no strictly required to issue Shipping documents such as UNHRD ‘Proforma Invoice/Packing List’ (e.g. in case of DAP as Incoterms), it is required to issue the Outbound delivery in order to include such shipments in the operational reporting as any other consignment departing from UNHRD warehouses. When creating a SO thru transaction VA01 – Sales Order Creation (ZHNO or ZHWO) or changing a SO thru transaction VA02 –Sales Order Change, add the material lines after the Service lines in order to generate the forthcoming Outbound Delivery. Just proceed as standard process by adding the material lines that will generate the Outbound Delivery and simply select ZDLS as item category, as highlighted in the red box below; in case the items that depart from supplier's location don't exist in WINGS, adopt the most similar item available in the system and adapt the item description:

The system allows to adopt both Item Category ZDLS (for Direct Delivery) and ZNTN (for standard items – External Partners) or ZWRN (for standard items – Internal Partners) on the same SO:

The system generates 2 Outbound Deliveries to eventually track the 2 single type of shipments (the one that departs from HRD depot and the one that departs from Suppliers’ locations).

NOTE: on exceptional base, in case partners request to procure nonstandard items (e.g. local procurement) that simply transit thru the warehouse with the purpose to being shipped to final destination, the Direct Delivery process is applied. This process is mostly applied when items procured are not recommended by the Cluster and on ad-hoc procurement activities.

Go to VL01N Outbound Delivery Creation with ref. of the SO without forcing any other delivery type (e.g. ZS) because the item category ZDLS is automatically transferred from the SO to the Outbound Delivery.

Maintain the batch number (because the material is batch managed in the affected plant) and the Loading point for the supplier. Click on the material line and select the Batch Split tab:

Click on the drop-down menu and enter the Valuation Type to search to select any batch number:

Select any batch number valid for the material processed as this kind of delivery does not take effect on batches in the warehouse:

NOTE: select the most recent batch in case of perishable items so that it won't expires in less than 365 days from its selection.

Enter Storage Location '0002', the quantity to be picked and 'ea'as Sales Unit:

Click on Enter (the system displays the fictitious SLED applied to the batch selected, if any):

In case the material required to be shipped from supplier's location does not exist in make sure to change the items description (this should be done already at the SO level) and, more important, change the weights and volume in the Outbound Delivery in order to adapt it to the real cargo composition. In that case, the weights and volumes can be changed in the Picking tab at line level of the Outbound Delivery:

No storage location and picking process is required because the item category is ZDLS and does not affect the warehouse activities.

After maintaining the batches for each item you can post the Goods Issue.

The Good Issue number in the Outbound Deliveries follows the 013* range.

When items are received at final destination, post the Proof of Delivery as per Chapter 6.5 Maintain Proof of Delivery

NOTE: The Outbound Delivery generated from a Direct Delivery process is visible on the various WINGS reports, such as the Logistics Reconciliation Report as any other delivery, with the only difference that the GI value is not reported, because there is no warehouse movement behind the good issue:

The outbound delivery type is derived from the SO type (e.g. ZNLF for External Outbound Delivery and ZWLF for Internal Outbound Delivery):

To define which Outbound Deliveries have been generated with Direct Delivery method, other WINGS monitoring reports such us the Activity Report POD Monitor show the Item category adopted in the SO and data can be filtered from there:
