Delivery Order

A delivery order is part of a customer order created for each picking list reported as issued. The delivery order forms the base for invoicing. A delivery order is created for each warehouse and delivery number included in the customer order.

Delivery orders are created automatically when:

• A customer order entry is completed and if the customer order type has the next manual function set to 3 or 4.
• A customer order picking list is reported in 'Picking List. Report' (MWS420).
• A purchase order directly connected to an order line is received and has Line Type 2 (direct delivery from supplier to customer).

When the delivery order is created, information is copied from the delivery header, the customer order header, and the customer order lines related to the picking list. Some of the information on the delivery order can be changed without affecting the original customer order.

Delivery orders are identified with the customer order number, warehouse, and delivery number. More than one delivery number can be created for the same customer order. The delivery order is ready for invoicing when it has status 60.
