Transfer Orders

[Former Member]

Hello All,

Could some let me know the following:

what is the purpose of transfer orders, and tables in SAP for transfer orders.

what is picking list used for, and tables in SAP for picking list data.

what is storage type used for.

How is this all related to when a delivery is created for a SO. I basically want to know the actual flow from delivery creation until the goods are sent to the customer. We are into creating Transfer orders in background for the deliveries which are selected manually in vl06o and in background we also have to make use of the user exit which will pick up relevant storage type for the transfer orders.

Could one of you who has had a chance to work on such requirement throw some light on the correct way to achieve the solution.

Thanks,

Mark

Hi ,

If Warehouse Management is incorporated then to do the Picking request you have to create aTransfer order where picking is carried overa nd confirmation the transfer order .

Tables used for Transfer order - LTAK ,LTAP.

When you have deliver some item it has to be picked from Warehouse or some storage location .So picking list is generated

Tables used are - LIPS ,LIPSD .

In warehouse Management Storage type is as follows.

The storage type is a subdivision of a complex, physical warehouse.

Different storage types are identified by their warehousing technique,

form of organization, or their function.

Flow is

Sales Order->Delivery->Picking-packing-Post Goods issue->Invoice->Accounting Document ->Postineg.
