Process Sales Releases (tdsls3208m000)

Use this session to convert sales releases and/or sales release lines to sales schedules and/or sales schedule lines.

If the Automatically Process Sales Schedule Releases is selected in the Sold-to Business Partners (tccom4110s000) session, sales releases are automatically converted to sales schedules. You need not use this session.

Note

For pick-up sheets, all details for a specific reference must be processed. Therefore, some data that you enter in this session can be ignored for pick-up sheets.

 

Print Generated Schedules
If this check box is selected, a report is printed with the generated sales schedules.
Log Errors in Message Log
If this check box is selected, processing errors are logged in the Message Log (tcstl1500m000) session.
Simulate Approval
If this check box is selected, processing sales releases is only simulated, not processed.
Note

This check box is applicable only for referenced schedules without revisions, because this type of schedules do not need re-approval when existing sales schedule lines/references are updated by processing a new sales release. Schedule approval is only required when inserting a new schedule or schedule line. Other types of schedules must always be re-approved after a schedule update.

If this check box is selected, the following are shown:

  • The effects of processing the sales release. This enables you to understand the changes and to, for example, manually intervene or not process this release.
  • For each schedule line of the sales schedule, updates to linked planned warehouse orders. The creation of new planned warehouse orders for new schedule lines is not reported.
Note
Print to predefined Device
If this check box is selected, the report is printed on your default printer.

If this check box is cleared, the report is printed on an alternative, to be specified printer.

Default value
