Batch Split in Delivery

In delivery, it's possible to assign mutiple batch to one item via batch split.

1. How batch split looks like.

2. Relevant fields in delivery

LIKPKALSM_CH LIPS-XCHAR LIPS-XCHPF LIPS-CHARG LIPS-UECHA Search procedure for batch determination (T683C) Batch management indicator (internal) Batch management requirement indicator Batch number Higher-level item of batch split item

When a material is batch managed, both LIPS-XCHPF and LIPS-XCHAR will be filled. When an item has LIPS-UECHA filled, system won't display it untill you click the expand button on its main item

Cumulative batch quantity of all LIPS-KCMENG split items (in base unit)

This field cumulates the quantity of all its batch split items (cumulation of LIPSLGMNG where LIPS-UECHA = this item's number). Only main item has value in this field. Once an item has value in this field, system will display the "Expand" button for this item.

LIPSKCBRGEW LIPSKCNTGEW LIPSKCVOLUM LIPSKCGEWEI LIPSKCVOLEH LIPS-KZFME

Cumulative gross weight of all batch split items Cumulative net weight of all batch split items Cumulative gross weight of all batch split items Weight unit Volume unit Leading unit of measure for completing a transaction

How to Update Batch in Delivery

1. 2.

3.

Copy from preceding document (SO or STO).If the batch is copied from preceding document, it cannot be changed in delivery. Set batch or batch split in delivery (VL02n). Set batch in WM transfer order. The batch will be copied to delivery when confirming TO. Batch split occurs when: 1. Partial quantity is picked. 2. Or several batches are picked.

4.

Update batch via idoc (WHSCON / SHPCON, base type DELVRY0*).Please read the online documentation . http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/en/38/c1853488601e33e10000009b38f83b/frameset.htm Path: Shipping (LE-SHP) > Printing and Communication in Shipping > Delivery Interface
