Return to vendor from EWM

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am creating return to vendor delivery using the functionality in EWM Return to vendor from already receipt inbound delivery. The function creates an Outbound delivery in ERP via Code vl60. My question is, how can I change the st.location in the new delivery? At the moment the st.location is taken from the inbound delivery.

Thanks

Hi Yoana,

Did you ever get this working?

You can allow a different storage location in EWM bij setting up a stock determintaion where you allow to pick F2 stock as F1.

Extended Warehouse Management --> Cross-Process Settings --> Stock Determination

Here you set a group:

if you leave the StkDetGrp emty then there is no need to maintain a vallue in the MAT1

In the stock determination you allow that for F1 you can use F2

The only problem we are having is that it is not possible to open a RFC to our ERP transaction VL60 from EWM by using the follow on function in EWM.

Hope this helps.

Thanks,

Arno

Hi Merve,

Sorry for the late reply! Extremely busy with COVID-19 Projects.

Not sure whether you have got answers from other community users. Our process is totally depends on the situations:

1. If user mistakenly goods receipt - actually not received, we will use VL60 to re-open the original PO. In this scenario, system will only allow you to pick same stock type (F1 or original PO Goods receipt Storage Location).

2. If the material has been receipt and found defect, we will use return to vendor process. Instead of using VL60 to open original PO, we will create a return to vendor purchase order which will trigger outbound delivery. This can be pre-configured e.g. to be only blocked stock etc... This will not open old purchase order.

Hope this helps.

Cheers

Hi Yaping

thank you for your answer - the same here 🙂

I really did not get an answer and I am still struggeling with this case.

so actually I need the first.

The user post accidently the goods receipt with wrong qty. And the qty what is posted accidently needs to be adjust.

I have set up this process over migo.

Just create a Return Delivery using RLL Movement type 122. An OTB is created and I can do the picking process. This works.

(JFYI: The putaway is completed directly after GR is posted).

But I like the solution in EWM when we can start the return to vendor process directly from /SCWM/prdi. But it does not work me. I do not know if customizing is missing.

The steps I have executed:

1. Post GR in /SCWM/prdi

2. Putaway done.

3. Click on "return to vendor" in SCWM/prdi

4. VL60 is opened

6. Click on "Return Qty".

7. Enter Qty

--> Error Message: "The difference qty (10) you specified for 000010 must be between 0 and 0"

Thank you for your advice in advance!

Best regards

Hi Yoana, unfortunately using VL60 or EWM /SCWM/PRDI - Return to Vendor function will not allow you to change different storage type (only where you initial goods receipt bin e.g. GR-zone will be accepted and in same stock type as well).

I will suggest you to use the return PO process which will allow you to process return delivery in a much flexible way which you can define the storage location, stock type etc.

Hi Yaping

which process would you like to propose? Can you explain please?

I am just trying to use the return to vendor process via follow-on-functions in scwm/prdi. But I have an error message

"The difference qty (10) you specified for 000010 must be between 0 and 0". Can you give me your advice?

Thank you and regards,

Merve
