a typing mistake was made, please see correction in bold font. Thank you!

E.g.
Material is available = 10.08.2011
Transport is arranged on = 7.08.2011
In VL01N,
Selection date = 5.08.2011 (& NOT 15.08.2011), then you get the error message. Delivery can NOT be created. Change selection date to = 7.08.2011 , you can create delivery. Irrespective of delivery date or any other dates & information w.r.t ATP, stock.

Hi,

a) In VL01N, field "selection date" checks the Material availability date & the Transportation planning date. If selection date is equal to or later than any of these 2 dates, then delivery is created.
Thus, if material is available or transport has been arranged, user can create a delivery. It has NOTHING to do with delivery date or material in stock or ATP stock!

E.g.
Material is available = 10.08.2011
Transport is arranged on = 7.08.2011
In VL01N,
Selection date = 15.08.2011, then you get the error message. Delivery can NOT be created. Change selection date to = 7.08.2011, you can create delivery. Irrespective of delivery date or any other dates & information w.r.t ATP, stock.

b) If there is insufficient stock than you can NOT do PGI
User shall get error message -
Deficit of SL Unrestricted-use 4 EA : CH200-V360 ZN10 0001
Message no. M7021

To conclude, the shipping process goes through a series of steps like creation of delivery, picking, packing, PGI, transport to ShipTo address. Thus SAP check different criteria for creation & processing of different documents. Delivery note creation is "further ahead/before" in the process chain than PGI.

If you have more questions, or anything is not clear; please post them.
