Hello, thanks for the answer, but I canot find any thumps up sign next to the post...

1 )also snce the selection date is 15.8.11 and it is later than material availability date, then the delivery shud get created... but you are saying that system will not create delivery ??

2 )you are saying that during delivery creation system does not look at ATP stock.... but then there is a concept of avaiibility check at delivery level also ??

3)I have another question....... in real time scenario, the delivery is created through batch jobs.... I need to know how that happens in automatic delivery creation... the batch job must be perofrming the selection date and material availabilty date comparion and also during auto delivery creation, the system must also be looking a ATP stock tooo ?. if there is no stock, then the systm must be issuing some error messages ?

i still cannot see the "thumps up option "

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.
