  • Return Inventory
    An order type that is used for returning inventory.
  • Return Rejects
    An order type that is used for returning rejects, which is the result of inspecting the received goods in Warehousing.

Direct Delivery
If this check box is selected, you can deliver directly for the selected order type.
Note

Direct delivery orders are purchase orders that are created or generated for sales orders. The ordered goods are directly delivered to the sold-to business partner. Therefore, no inventory transactions take place for a direct delivery order.

Collect Order
If this check box is selected, the purchase order that is linked to this order type is of the type collect order.

A collect order is an order in which inventory is posted on-line while entering order lines. For non-collect orders, financial transactions are created when entering receipts. For collect orders, however, the transactions are created immediately during order entry.

Note

For each activity that is linked to the collect order, the Automatic check box is selected. As a result, manual activities are not allowed for collect orders.

Cost Order
If this check box is selected, the purchase order that is linked to the selected order type is of the cost order or service order type.
Note

For this order type, only items of type Cost or Service can be selected during order entry.

Subcontracting Order
If this check box is selected, the purchase order that is linked to the selected order type is used for operation subcontracting or item subcontracting.
Note
  • For operation subcontracting without material supply, Subcontracted Service items are used on the purchase order. For more information, refer to Operation subcontracting without material flow support.
  • For operation subcontracting with material supply, Purchased items or Manufactured items are used on the purchase order. For more information, refer to To subcontract operations (manufacturer's side).
  • For item subcontracting it is not mandatory to use this order type. You can also use a normal order type. Purchased items or manufactured items are used on the purchase order. For more information, refer to Item subcontracting - setup.
  • This order type cannot be used when transferring orders from Enterprise Planning.
Customer Furnished Materials
If this check box is selected, the purchase order that is linked to the selected order type contains customer furnished material.
Warehousing Order Type
The warehousing order type that is linked to the purchase order type.
Note

If the Return Order field is set to Return Inventory or Return Rejects, you must select a warehousing order type for which the Inventory Transaction Type reads Issue in the Warehousing Order Type (whinh0110m000) session.

Combine Open Backorders
If this check box is selected, LN tries to consolidate several back order lines into one open back order line for a specific purchase order line detail.

The following checks are executed to determine whether an existing back order line can be updated or a new back order line must be created:

  • The existing back order line is not canceled.
  • The existing back order line is not yet linked to a receipt.
  • The existing back order line is linked to the same purchase order line detail.
  • The values for the existing back order line correspond with the values for the new back order line.
Note

If a back order line's ordered quantity is updated due to combining open back order lines and a warehousing order is already linked to the line, the warehousing order's ordered quantity is also updated.
