Programmatically unpacking/repacking HUs

[frank_graves]

In our business process, Deliveries for some of our shipments are created about 3 weeks in advance of the expected shipment date. These Deliveries, which contain estimated weights, are then put into SAP Shipments and are packed onto Shipping Units. On the shipping date, Deliveries are updated with the actual weights that were shipped. In 4.6B, we developed programming to dynamically update the weights on Shipping Units within the Shipment the correspond with the actual weights in the Delivery. In mySAP, this process is different since it involves Handling Units.

Has anyone had to programmatically update weights and/or volumes in Handling Units in a Shipment after a Delivery has been already been packed onto the Handling Unit? Have you programmatically unpacked and repacked a HU? If so, please specify any SAP Function modules that were used. Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Hi Frank,

In the following thread the same issue has been discussed in detail. The function WS_DELIVERY_UPDATE has to be used, as BAPI does not do the job.
