      Hi Satish,

      Your blog is very valuable for our proof of concept.

      We tried to configure this scenario exchanging DESADV and STPPOD messages and in our case it worked partially.

      After posting outbound delivery inbound delivery was created, but after we post inbound delivery STPPOD IDOC is generated but in a filed E1EDL20/VBELN of STPPOD IDOC there is inbound delivery number and outbound delivery POD data were not updated.

      What is in a field E1EDL20/VBELN of STPPOD IDOC in your case?

      In our system there is no OPOD message as a standard so we have to configure it from scratch. We put it in a procedure E10001 with requirement 17.

      Also, we have to configure some parts in customizing:

      1. Logistic Execution, Shipping, Deliveries, Proof of Delivery, Set POD-Relevance Depending on Delivery Item Category: Item category ELN - POD Relevant (X - Relevant for POD), POD Automatic (T - Partly-Automated POD)
      2. Logistic Execution, Shipping, Deliveries, Proof of Delivery, Define Reasons for Quantity Differences: we created two reasons (one for + and one for +) and mark them as a default

      We also mark a supplier in Control Data, Reference part as A - Always send POD

      So, these are our settings. Do we missed something to configure?

      Hello,

      I found what was a source of a probelm:

      we were messing with LIKP-LIFEX value (clearing it) when creating inbound delivery.

      After we correct it the outbound STPPOD contain in E1EDL20/LIFEX number of outbound delivery and now it correctly update POD data.

      Thanks again for your blog.

      Hi

      It is a very useful document. Good work!

      just one question about That kind of scénario. Is it possible to do the same thing in standard with request of quotation and quotation.

      I Explain my requirement. Two plants within the same group in the same client. the first plant create an RFQ and send it to the second company wich create a RFQ in its system. The second company create in its turn a quotation and send it to the first company wich create a quotation in its Sap system. One company is the vendor and the other one the customer but in the same group and in the same client.

      Is it possible to map and automate that kind of process with IDOC in standard SAP system Like sales order and purchase order.

      Thanks for your help

      best regards
