7.2.3 Loading Points
You can use doors and staging areas in the SAP system only if you use WM or lean
WM. If you do not have access to either system, but still want to assign your deliveries
to individual doors, you can use loading points in the delivery document. See
Section 2.1.6 for the definition of a loading point.
The loading point must be defined manually in the delivery document. Of course,
you also have the option to use a user exit at the creation of the delivery document
to determine the loading point with your own table. You enter the loading point
itself on the Loading tab in the delivery document (see Figure 7.12).
You now know how you can affect the flow of goods in the warehouse in the context
of shipping — especially in terms of picking and staging materials. If you do
not want to use this functionality, leave the fields in the delivery document blank.
They will not affect the overall process.
7.3 Overdeliveries and Underdeliveries
As a rule, your company always makes every effort to pick and deliver the correct
quantities that customers order. Differences might nevertheless occur in
specific cases, resulting in overdeliveries or underdeliveries. Differences (deviations)
require coordination with the customer. Will they be accepted? If they are
accepted, in what scope and within what tolerance limits?
