Availability Check : to check if customer order for goods is available either in stock or in planned inward movement at the customer requested delivery date.
Transfer of Data : if customer requested delivery date and quantity cannot be fulfilled from stock, the order requirement is transferred on to MRP as a required quantity for the requested date.
Delivery Scheduling : if good is not available on the availability date, system attempts to determine a deadline by which the good will be available. This deadline is the new goods availability date as a starting point for carrying out delivery scheduling again to determine a new delivery date.
Replenishment Lead Time : Time required to order or produce the requested goods. Not sophisticated function

When you create a delivery, an availability check is initiated for the picking date. This check is carried out along the same lines as in the sales order.
The availability check is calculated using planned inward and outward movements of goods. Therefore the delivery situation might have changed in the meantime due to unforeseen circumstances, such as lost output.
When you enter a sales order, you can only confirm the delivery of the goods for the required delivery date if the goods are available for all the necessary processing activities which take place before delivery:
The shipping department must ensure that freight forwarding or another shipping company is advised early enough so that sufficient time remains for packing and loading to be carried out. An availability check can be carried out on the deadline date for availability for the goods.
The procurement department must ensure that the production and purchasing departments are advised of inadequate stock quantities so that goods can either be produced punctually or ordered. Sales transfers the information on materials ordered as requirements to material requirements planning. Requirements are planned outward movements of stock. The transfer of requirements informs production that goods must be produced, or advises purchasing that purchase requisitions have been created for which purchase orders must be created and sent to the suppliers. An availability check can only be carried out if these requirements are transferred.

During transfer of requirements, material requirements planning is informed of quantities which sales and distribution require to be able to deliver orders received. If sufficient quantities are not available to cover the requirements, purchase orders, for example, can be created in purchasing on the basis of transfer of requirements within automatic planning.
There are three types of availability check:
Check on the basis of the ATP quantities/Check against product allocation/Check against planning
In Customizing, you determine whether an availability check is to be carried out against the ATP quanitity or against planning. The check against product allocations is controlled in the material master and elsewhere in the system.
Check on the Basis of the ATP Quantities
The ATP quantity (ATP = Available To Promise) is calculated from the warehouse stock, the planned inward movements of stock (production orders, purchase orders, planned orders) and the planned outward movements of stock (sales orders, deliveries, reservations). This type of check is performed dynamically for each transaction, taking into account the relevant stock and planned goods movements with or without replenishment lead time. Planned independent requirements are not taken into account here.
Check against Product Allocation
Product allocation facilitates period-based distribution of products for certain customers or regions. As of Release 3.0F, you can carry out an availability check against product allocation. This ensures, for example, that when production is low, the first customer does not get the full amount, resulting in following sales orders not being confirmed or being confirmed far too late.
Check against planning
The check against planning is performed against independent requirements which are usually created for an ‘anonymous’ market rather than being customer-specific (for example, in the strategy ‘Planning without assembly’, when production occurs only up to the stocking level). The planned independent requirements result from demand program planning and are used for planning expected sales quantities independent of orders

1. Delivery Scheduling / Backward
Delivery scheduling determines the material availability date by taking into account the delivery scheduling time.
The system checks whether the material is available on the material availability date.
All activities which must be carried out before the goods can be delivered to the customer are taken into account during delivery scheduling. This includes loading, picking, and packing. Delivery scheduling determines the material availability date and the loading date.
All dates which are used for preparing and carrying out the transportation of goods are taken into account during transportation scheduling. This includes the transit time and the transportation lead time that you need for ordering a foreign carrier or for arranging a truck from the your company's truck fleet. The goods issue date and the transportation scheduling date are determined by transportation scheduling.

Values based on past experience of the shipping department are entered in the system in the form of transit times, loading times, pick/pack times, and transportation lead times:
The transit time is the time in days that is required to deliver goods from your premises to the customer location. It is defined for a route.
The loading time is the time in days that is required for loading a delivery item. It is determined from the shipping point, the route, and the loading group of the material.
The pick/pack time is the time in days that is required for allocating goods to a delivery as well as the time in days that is required for picking and packing. It is calculated using the shipping point, the route, and the weight group of the order item.
The transportation lead time is the time in days that is needed to organize the shipping of the goods. This might include booking a ship and reserving a truck from a carrier. It is defined for a route.
The time unit used for time specification is a day ( with 2 decimal places).
If material availability date determined is in the past ( ie before order date), then forward scheduling takes place to determine the earliest possible deadline.

Availability Check Including Replenishment Time
Availability is only checked up to the end of replenishment lead time. If the material availability date is calculated on the basis of the current date to lie after the replenishment lead time for the item, the item itself can be confirmed despite insufficient stock being available. In this case, the system assumes that any quantity requested by the customer can be procured by the material availability date and considers the goods to be available. Therefore, a binding confirmation can be sent to the customer.
The following figure shows such a case. The customer wants 20 pieces delivered in full by the requested delivery date. Using backward scheduling, the system determines a material availability date. However, no goods are available. The inward movement of 100 pieces is used up by an outward stock movement. Therefore no stock is available for the material availability date determined by the system. If replenishment lead time were not taken into account, the following situation would arise. The customer wants complete delivery. However, as a result of further inward (50 pieces) and outward stock movements (40 pieces), the goods only become available shortly before the requested delivery date specified by the customer when 60 pieces are added to the stock. Correspondingly, the delivery date resulting from this material availability date would lie further in the future.
However, since replenishment lead time is taken into account during the availability check, the 20 pieces ordered can be delivered before this date, namely at the end of the replenishment lead time.

13. 2018/6/18
Shipping
As soon as the material availability date or the transportation scheduling date for a schedule line is reached, the schedule line becomes due for shipping. When you create a delivery, you initiate shipping activities such as picking and transportation scheduling.
A delivery is processed through one shipping point. Which shipping point carries out the processing for a delivery can be determined automatically during order processing or you can specify it manually in the order.
Certain prerequisites must be met before an order can be delivered. When a delivery is created, the system carries out various functions that add to the data in the delivery and check its validity:
The delivery quantity of an item is determined and the availability of the material is checked.
The weight and the volume of the delivery are calculated.
The delivery situation of the order and any partial delivery agreements are checked.
You can subsequently make changes in a delivery if the delivery situation changes in any way. In addition you can confirm picked quantities using the change function, or use the display function to access shipping information in a delivery.
Order items or schedule lines that have identical shipping criteria are combined in one delivery. If data varies between items, for example, a different ship-to party is defined for each item, two deliveries must be created for the order.
Order items from different orders can be grouped together in one delivery provided that they have identical shipping criteria and that the sold-to party allows this.

Control Elements
Specific functions can be defined for each shipping document type. This is done using control elements that are specified in tables. The document types can be adapted to suit your specific shipping requirements. New document types can also be defined if those specified in the standard version of the SAP R/3 System do not cover your needs sufficiently. Your system administrator is responsible for maintaining control elements.
You can distinguish between shipping document types according to the following criteria:
Which number range does the document number come from for internal and external number assignment?
Which partner functions are allowed and which must be entered?
Does an order have to form the basis for the delivery or can the delivery also be entered without reference to an order ?
Which requirements must order-independent items fulfill to be included in the delivery?
Should the route be determined again? Should a check then be carried out to determine whether the new route is permissible?
According to which rule should the storage location be determined for an item if a storage location is not specified?
Which output types are allowed for the business transaction and according to which procedure are they proposed?

You can distinguish between item categories using the following criteria:
Does a material number have to be defined for an item? For example, you do not have to specify a material number for a text item.
Is a delivery quantity of 0 allowed?
Should a check be carried out to determine whether the delivery quantity exceeds the minimum delivery quantity for the material involved?
Should a check be carried out to determine whether an item has been over delivered and whether this over delivery is allowed?
Is the item relevant for picking?
Should a storage location be specified for the item?

Shipping points are independent organizational entities within which processing and monitoring of the deliveries as well as goods issue are carried out. A delivery is processed by one shipping point only.
Criteria for Proposing a Shipping Point
A shipping point can be determined for each order item. How the shipping point is determined depends on three factors:
The shipping conditions from the customer master record (Shipping screen)
A condition might be that the goods are to be delivered to the customer as soon as possible.
The loading group from the material master record (Sales/Plant Data screen)
You could, for example, specify a loading group that defines that the goods must always be loaded with a crane or a fork lift.
The delivering plant
This plant is determined per order item either from the customer master record or from the material master record. However, you can also enter it manually for each order item. You will find detailed information on determining the delivering plant in the section Data from Master Records.
On the basis of shipping condition 01, the loading group CRANE and the plant 0001, the system determines shipping point 0001 for the item. Instead of this shipping point, you can also select shipping points 0002 and 0003 if, for example, you know that shipping point 0001 is out of operation or does not have the capacity to deal with the item at the time when delivery is to take place.

= Connection points
The route determines the means of transport and the legs involved. It influences transportation scheduling. For example, the system can determine from the route that goods are to be sent by rail to Boston. Therefore, during transportation scheduling, it takes into account how far in advance loading space in the freight car must be reserved.
Criteria for Route Proposal in the Sales Order
A route can be determined for every order item. Determining the route in the sales order depends on the following factors:
Country and departure zone of the shipping point
Shipping condition from the sales order
For example, it might have been agreed with the customer that the goods are to be delivered as soon as possible.
Transportation group from the material master record (Sales/Plant Data screen)
You can use the transportation group to group together goods with the same characteristics (for example, bulky goods or goods that must be transported in refrigerated trucks).
Country and transportation zone of the ship-to party (Control screen in the customer master record)
If the ship-to party is changed in the sales order, the route is determined again for each item.

Criteria for the Proposal of the Route in the Delivery
The shipping document type determines whether the route is determined again in the delivery. Since you only learn the exact weight of the delivery at the time of creating the delivery, it makes sense to determine the route again. For example, an overdelivery of goods could mean that the delivery is now too heavy to be delivered by air freight and must be conveyed by rail. It could also be that several partial deliveries are created for one sales order so that the total weight of the each delivery is now lower than the total weight that is recorded in the sales order. Thus, a smaller truck than originally planned can be used for the delivery.
For this reason, a weight group is used as an additional factor in determining the route. The weight group is determined on the basis of the total weight of the delivery. You can manually overtype the route that is determined by the system in the delivery.
Unlike the sales order where a route can be defined for each order item, the route applies to all items in the delivery.
Consistency Check
Once a new route has been determined in the delivery, the system can check whether the route determined in the order item and the route found for the delivery are consistent. You can define in Customizing a consistency check for each shipping document type.

Combining Orders
You can group together entire orders, order items of different orders or partial deliveries of individual order items in one delivery but only if this has been agreed with the customer.
Prerequisites:Order combination can only be carried out if the orders concerned have the appropriate indicator in the order header.
The orders or the order items and schedule lines must have identical shipping criteria. This includes the following data:
Shipping point
Ship-to party
Incoterms
Sales organization
If you try to combine items that have different goods issue dates, you receive a warning message. You can ignore this warning message. The earliest goods issue date is selected automatically from all the items as goods issue date of the entire delivery.

SAP System
Picking means staging goods on time in the correct quantity and quality for shipping. Picking can take place automatically when the delivery is created, at defined times, or it can also be initiated manually by an employee.
It is possible to perform the following tasks:
Print picking lists and labels
Follow up each item using the picking status
Set the system so that the picked items must be confirmed before the goods issue can be posted
Execute single or collective picking.
Packing is part of delivery and shipment processing. While a delivery is being processed, you can select delivery items that you want to pack, and then assign them to so-called shipping units.
A shipping unit is a group of materials or other shipping units that are packed or shipped at a certain time. These shipping units can, in turn, be packed themselves., that is, they can be assigned to other shipping units.
It is possible, for example, to pack delivery items into cardboard boxes, to pack the cardboard boxes for delivery to the customer onto pallets, and then to load these onto a truck.
The packing component and the packing information created by it can serve to:
Update the stock situation of packing material
Monitor the returnable packaging at the customer or the forwarding agent
Help you find you what was in a particular container (for example, if a customer maintains that they have received an incomplete delivery)
Make sure that the weight and volume limits have been adhered to
Ensure that products have been packed correctly.

Goods issue can only be posted for a delivery if the following prerequisites are fulfilled:
The data in the delivery must be complete. For example, the storage location, the batch, or the valuation type must be specified in the delivery.
Picking must have been completed for all items in the delivery. This means that goods issue can only be posted for the picked quantity.
If a delivery item was picked in the warehouse management system MM-WM, the item must have the status 'completed' in MM-WM. For this status to be assigned, all transfer orders for the delivery must have been confirmed.
