Automatic extension of Products at Customer location, lanes

[praveen_suryadevara]

Hi, One of my clients is looking for extending products at customer locations by maintaining the Customer and Material Link some where in R/3. Is it possible?

Any Badi or exit available for this?

Also wanted to CIF transportation lanes automatically through CIF.( with out SD scheduling agreements)

Any clues and documentation would be of great help

cheers

Hi,

For transportaion lanes linking customer and plant there is only one standard way of creating, i.e through by maintaining SD schedule agreements.This works fine. But my client does not want to use SD schedule agreements and ready to use a z table or VD52.

so, question is whether this is possible through any BAPI ? Is there any possible way to generated customer location product combination APO through CIF using Z table or VD52 by using any exit?

Hi Praveen,

Take a look at OSS note 432038 which talks about creating location product to customer during transfer of Stock to APO.

Also look at OSS note 808026 that talks about Customer enhancement in CIF_MATERIAL_PRODUCT_MAP function.

Hope these are relevant for you.

Thanks,

if you are going to maintain Customer Location - material in a table you should consider using LSMW and loading the extension rather than CIF

The Fields necessary for the loading can be found from transaction /SAPAPO/MAT1

similarly BAPI_TRLSRVAPS_SAVEMULTI2 can be used to create Transportation lanes if you have details in a table

to answer the transportation lane part of your question... (am not sure if have transportation lanes in R3 and you can CIF it)

if you would like your transportation lanes in APO to be based on R3 information it is possible to automatically generate transportation lanes from purchase info records - pl check link
