Automatic Receipt in Inbound Delivery

Introduction:

There is some business cases where we might need system to automate Goods Receipt and Put away to fixed location.The certain items are fixed to location and there might no need to use device/system/resource to do activity for unload/goods receipt/…../put away rather than only tracking ( Reporting for location ). Therefore it might be handy to automate the process without user intervention in WMS as well.

This below demo is just a hypothetical case, no link to any business warehouse.Its just trick to achieve auto goods receipt for PO without Unloading process in Standard.

Process:

Create Manual Inbound VL31N or ASN

Configuration:

Step 1 ->

Create Custom Action Definition in Inbound Action Profile (Copy Standard Action Profile) in Application (/SCDL/DELIVERY)

SPRO->SCM Extended Warehouse Management->Extended Warehouse Management->Cross-Process Settings->Delivery – Warehouse Request->Actions->Actions->Change Actions and Conditions->Define Action Profiles and Actions

Method: /SCWM/GM_POSTING ( Same method also use Auto Goods Issue for Outbound )

Step 2 ->

SPRO->SCM Extended Warehouse Management->Extended Warehouse Management-> Goods Receipt Process->Inbound Delivery->Define Document Types for Inbound Delivery Process

Step 3 ->

SPRO->SCM Extended Warehouse Management->Extended Warehouse Management->Cross-Process Settings->Delivery – Warehouse Request->Actions->Actions->Configure Action Scheduling-> Assign Determination Procedure

To add more condition use Schedule Condition ( Why )and Start Condition ( When ) in PPF.
