General note for: Firm shipment (FS), In transit (ITI), and Sales Order book (SOB) and External Purchase Order (EPO) flows:


  • On FS / ITI / Sales Order Book : in case of a Consignment flow, Receiving site code might be transcoded from "Consignment plant" to "Shipto code". More info in this section Consignment plant -> Shipto transco
  • On External Purchase Order (EPO): in case of non standard SAP flow (or "Unlinked flow", or flow "SO - PO"), we will use the BW table ZMATVENDOR to exclude some Material x Vendor flows, so it might affect content of BW_EPO file. Please consult ZMATVENDOR section for more information,

Backorder

Backorder: Deliveries + Sales Order of the SAP transaction code MD04 whose date < current date (in the following example, the current day is the 17/12/2018).

Current interface cumulates all these SO + Del on the current date, it’s also possible to not accumulate them and place them on their respective dates

Intransit inventory in receipt date


We have 2 types of flows.


1/ standard flow with link between the 2 Plants (shipping and receiving): We will have only one Purchase Order


SAP Transaction MD04 to check Stock/Requirements List please check the Individual List tab


We take the Date and Qty from the PO:

  • If there are some confirmations, we take it as first


  • If no confirmation, we take the ones from the Schedule






2/ Not standard flow with unlinked Purchase Order and Sales Order


For this kind of flow, we need a Matrix in SAP BW updated =>  "ZMATVENDOR".


SAP process vs DynaSys data:

  • The receiving site is placing a Purchase order in SAP with a Solvay Vendor code - At this stage we have nothing in DynaSys but we can display this information as "Internal Purchase Order".


  • The Shipping site will create a Sales Order in SAP once they received the PO with a Solvay customer code - At this stage we have data under "Firm Shipment" field

=> It is relevant to have Sales Order created regularly in SAP



  • The shipping site will make the GI - At this stage the Firm Shipment is becoming an In-Transit

=> We take the Outbound Delivery to define the In Transit receipt date in Dynasys


  • In Dynasys we do not check the Goods Receipt:
    • If delivery date is past but PO still opened- we will see the data in Dyansys as Actuals Receipt
    • If delivery date is on the future, but PO received - we will see the data in Dyansys as In Transit
