To transfer multicompany distribution orders

If LN transfers a planned distribution order to a purchase order, the purchase order appears in the Purchase Orders (tdpur4100m000) session in Procurement. In the company to which the warehouse belongs from which the ordered goods are sold, the order is visible as a sales order in the Sales Orders (tdsls4100m000) session after you run EDI.

Whether you transfer the multicompany distribution order to a warehouse order or to a purchase order, in both situations, LN can retrieve the destination warehouse from the planned distribution order. However, LN cannot directly retrieve the necessary information about the supplying warehouse, because the distribution order only contains the supplying site and the supplying item. Although LN can derive the supplying warehouse from this information, it uses the default warehouse of the supplying item. To have the proper warehouse available on execution level, you can change the supplying warehouse in the Supplying Warehouse field of the Planned Order (cprrp1600m000) session.

To actually transfer the orders to execution level you must carry out the Transfer Order Planning (cppat1210m000) session. If you select the Interactive check box in this session, LN provides an overview of the default settings for every order that you want to transfer. You can still manually change these settings before Enterprise Planning actually transfer the order.

Next, you must click Transfer on the appropriate menu to carry out the transfer. LN displays an overview session where all the order lines appear. For each order, you can select or deselect the Transfer check box to determine wether or not LN must transfer the order.
