Question:
Hello All.
I have the following scenario:
(1) Created a sales order:
Line 10 - Material A, 100 CS
Line 20 - Material B, 50 CS
(2) Create a delivery for the order. However, there is no inventory left for B. So the delivery will look like this:
Line 10 - Material A, 100 CS
Line 20 - Material B, 0 CS
Now, what I want to do is to ship material B from a different plant. Can anyone advise as to what steps I need to take? Example: do I need to reject line 20 in the order, do I need to delete the first delivery, etc?
Thank you!
Answer:
At this point, you've already missed some key point in the process. Either:
1) Do an "other plants" check during ATP during the original order entry,
2) Do not create the delivery without available inventory (do not allow VL01N for most users -- require them to use VL10)
or
3) Clean up the inventory figures
Once the delivery has been created, you absolutely cannot change the plant. You will have to delete the item from the delivery and create a new delivery for the other plant. You will then end up with two invoices in all likelihood.
