Delivery Type

A service kit is used to solve calls with a minimum set of spare parts, or just as a standard set of basic spare parts that are frequently used. The service kit is replenished on actual usage, and is not assigned in the estimated service-order cost calculation.

Bulk materials such as bolts and nuts.

Parts that are not held on stock, such as expensive parts or non-storable parts, and that must be purchased. A purchase order for these parts is generated when you run global SRP.

Parts that must be purchased locally at the site where the activity is carried out.

Parts that must be returned to the warehouse, for example, insurance parts that are refurbished in an overhaul shop (not applicable to maintenance items).

Parts that must be returned to the warehouse, and that must be transported in a special way, for example, transport on a special truck (not applicable to maintenance items).

If the delivery is from a central or regional warehouse, and the warehouse on the material line is specified, the planned deliveries are normally allocated in the warehouse of the item. Use this delivery type if no service cars are defined, or if service cars are not defined as separate warehouses.

Select this option if parts are transported by a service car and these service cars are defined as separate warehouses. During global SRP, allocations are made in the central warehouse. While Releasing a Service Order, a transfer order is created from the central warehouse to the service car.

Parts are transported by a service car related to warehouse and transfer warehouse orders are not generated.

The car must be replenished using the normal warehouse procedures such as Time Phased Order Point (TPOP) or Order Controlled/Batch (OCB).

Select this option if parts must be separately transported because of their size. While Releasing a Service Order, a transfer order is created from the central warehouse to the warehouse that is defined for the ship-to business partner.
