Challenges in Modify Batch Details at Sub-Item Level in S/4HANA Public Cloud

[ashoktirumalasetti30]

Dear Experts,

We are unable to identify the appropriate BADI to modify batch details at the sub-item level when the item quantity reaches the source quantity (as maintained in the material master).

Our requirement is that once the item quantity reaches the source quantity, the batch details of the next subsequent sub-items should be cleared; otherwise, we are unable to proceed with the PGI (Post Goods Issue).

Could you please suggest a suitable BADI that can be used to modify the sub-item batch details?

I have gone through some standard documentation but could not find concrete details for these scenarios. If anyone has already implemented a similar requirement, it would be very helpful if you could share:

• Blogs, SAP Notes, or official references
• Your implementation experiences or best practices
• Any limitations or workarounds you came across in Public Cloud

Your valuable inputs will help us in moving forward with this requirement.

Thanks in advance for your support!

Hello @ashoktirumalasetti30 

Thank you for your question

There is no released BAdI to clear or modify delivery batch-split sub-items at save/PGI time in public cloud. However, SAP supports a configuration.

• You can set up Batch Determination in deliveries so that once the required quantity is covered, the system will not propose additional batches
• You can also assign the search procedure to the delivery item category and test it from the Manage Outbound Deliveries.
• If your user created extra splits manually, ensure you re-run batch determination in the item; the system should propose only what is needed you will not have a clear sub-item to pass PGI.

If you are on EWM, ensure you use stock removal strategies and picking rules. This will ensure no batches over-picking instead of trying to clear them programmatically.

Have a look at Definition of a Batch Search Strategy, Batch Determination for Deliveries & Extensibility for more details.

Let me know if you have further questions.

Best regards

Chris
