Handling Units via Idoc

[Former Member]

Hi all,

Im trying to create Handling Units in a Shipment with Deliveries by use of idoc SHPMNT05

According to SAP docs I need to fill field EXIDV with $1, $2 etc.... in both segments E1EDT37 and E1EDT43 so that upon posting a HU Identifier number is created.

However, this is not working and Im getting the error that system cannot create HU $1

<E1EDT37 SEGMENT="1">

<EXIDV>$14</EXIDV>

<TARAG>13.600</TARAG>

<GWEIT>KGM</GWEIT>

<BRGEW>228.600</BRGEW>

<NTGEW>213.600</NTGEW>

<GWEIM>KGM</GWEIM>

<BTVOL>13679746.600</BTVOL>

<VHILM>not filled</VHILM>

<E1EDT43 SEGMENT="1">

<VELIN>3</VELIN>

<EXIDV>$1</EXIDV>

</E1EDT43>

<E1EDT43 SEGMENT="1">

<VELIN>3</VELIN>

<EXIDV>$2</EXIDV>

</E1EDT43>

Any ideas are most welcome.

Hey Erik,

I just posted a similar thread.

I'm trying to work out how to create handling units as well.

Can you tell me where you found the doucmentation regarging passing parameters.

As I make progress I'll keep you in the loop.

Cheers,

Hi,

you need to make sure the customizing of handling units match the values you give in your IDoc.

Identifiers for handling units are determined during creation according to settings in Customizing for number assignment of the packaging material type for the packaging material that is being used. You can also assign default values for identifiers when you create handling units, although these values must correspond to the settings in Customizing.
