Delivery Documents<br />

5.1 Task and Structure of the Delivery Document<br />

The delivery document is the first document created during the course of the<br />

entire shipping process. It is also the basis for further activities in shipping. Figure<br />

Note<br />

Figure 5.1 Representation of a Shipping Process<br />

All sales orders and stock transport orders pending for delivery are selected using<br />

the shipping point. The delivery documents can be created manually, in a combined<br />

procedure, or automatically by means of a batch job. After they are created, picking<br />

of the goods can begin. To do that, you can create picking documents or transport<br />

orders using <strong>SAP</strong> Warehouse <strong>Management</strong> (WM). After the goods have been<br />

picked, you can start packing the goods. Once the goods are packed and provided<br />

for transport, the packing data is available for entry in the delivery document.<br />

Once all necessary data has been entered and the shipping company has been<br />

commissioned for the transport, the shipping papers are printed. When the shipping<br />

company has arrived and the goods are in the truck, you close the shipping<br />

process <strong>with</strong> the goods issue posting. The delivery document serves as the basis for<br />

this last process as well.<br />
