Distribution orders are used to distribute items between two warehouses.

Before you start

A distribution order is created.

Follow These Steps

Material Plan

  1. Open 'Material Plan. Open' (MMS080). The material plan will indicate negative transaction quantities (order category 511 – distribution order issue) for the supplying warehouse and positive transactions (order category 501 – distribution order goods receipt) for the receiving warehouse. Both transactions will be displayed with a reference text that displays the From–To warehouse (001(901).

    Availability in All Warehouses

  2. Open 'Availability. Display All Warehouses' (MMS081), where availability can be displayed for all warehouses. If something is needed at a specific warehouse, such as the sales warehouse, this function can give information on whether the material can be distributed from the production warehouse, from another sales warehouse, etc.

    How Far Order Lines Have Come in the Order Flow

  3. You can see where different quantities are in the distribution flow on the E panel in 'Req/Distr Order. Open Lines' (MMS101).
