Report Shipment Advice for PO

Outcome

A PO is shipment advised and the goods are about to be delivered to your plant. You have updated information about the transport, you know when and how the goods are shipped and whether a via terminal is used. You also know about, for example, the forwarding agent, bill of lading, packing slip number and carrier name.

The files used for the programs in the flow are:

• MPHEAD Purchase Order Header
• MPLINE Purchase Order Line].

You can notify transportation for the PO in 'Purchase Order. Notify Transportation' (PPS270).

The next mandatory step is to receive the ordered goods in 'Purchase Order. Receive Goods' (PPS300).

It is possible to reverse the logging of shipment advice in 'Purchase Order. Display Line Trans' (PPS330).
