Sales Order Book is a presentation in a detailed level of all sales orders placed in SAP/PF1 system, being possible to determine:

• Sales order on going and open
• Sales Orders Shipped Not Billed
• Sales Orders invoiced

The sales order book is defined at most detailed level. That means at the schedule line level. The concept of line is very important to understand how the order book works. Each sales document can generate an item, the combination of document number / item number is a line.

To generate the sales order book the documents lines below are used:

• Order line
  • Schedule line
    • Delivery line
    • Shipment⁽¹⁾
    • Billing line

Document line generation:

• Each sales order document can generate n order line.
• Each scheduled line can generate n delivery document.
• Each delivery document can generate n delivery line.
• Each delivery line can generate n billing document.
• Each Billing document can generate n billing line.

⁽¹⁾Global Sales doesn't use the shipment line. Informations which are necessaries to generate the sales order book are at the shipment to the end customer in the header level. For more detail please refer to Definitions and concepts (Shipment to the end customer).
