MIGO - Inbound Delivery Document - Multiple Purchase Orders 101 movement Goods Receipt

[LearningEveryday]

Hi SAP Community,

From a process perspective, we have a single inbound delivery with multiple Purchase Orders and line numbers from a single vendor. We prefer to be able to post a single goods receipt but reference different packing slip numbers. Still, the standard SAP integration only allows a single packing slip reference at the goods receipt header.

Suppose we are unable to receive the multiple PO lines. In that case, we lose some efficiency when a supplier is shipping a single inbound delivery and a single good receipt document number with multiple packing slip numbers (the vendor provides packing slip numbers).

Does the community know if there is a way out of the box to have SAP receive each line item - as its own separate GR document in batch (receiving all lines at once)? The problem we have is with the packing slip numbers being different by Purchase order - so the manual solution we came up with today is to only receive in a single line at a time. Not batch receive in the entire inbound delivery.

Thoughts and comments are welcome.

Cheers

Dear ed.bunn3,

How are you creating inbound deliveries? EDI, manually based on ASN at the time material is is being shipped out or manually during GR?

Maybe it's obvious but ->

Why are you not creating inbound deliveries according to suppliers slip in 1:1 ratio?

Supplier is creating 10 unique delivery slips and you are creating 10 inbound deliveries.

I think this might be also user friendly solution as there will be clear tracibility between suppliers slips and your inbound delivery external id no.
