Work flow for Back-to-Back (BtB) orders with transit delivery

With a transit delivery, it is most common to assign a print of the purchase order document in the Purchase order type table. If you indicate a direct printout, the purchase order will automatically be created after you exit the sales order routine.

The work flow for a Transit delivery, with an automatic creation of the Purchase order immediately after you exit the sales order routine, is as follows:

Using the Receive replenishment line program:

1. Enter the sales order.
2. Print the sales order confirmation.
3. Report the goods as received when you have received them. This is done via the Receive replenishment line menu item.
4. Print the quality control note (if the item(s) is under quality control).
5. Confirm the quality control note (if the item(s) is under quality control).
6. Print the sales order pick list.
7. Confirm the sales order pick list.
8. Print the transport note, if it was assigned for printout in the Sales order type table.
9. Print the invoice.
