In this process, you can send bigger quantities (for example, cartons or pallets) to the customers. You pick the goods by waves into pick-handling units (pick-HUs) and consolidate them into shipping HUs at a packing station. You then stage the shipping HUs and load them into a truck before posting the goods issue. You use a separate route for each customer. Alternatively, you can use a pallet and not a wire basket as pick-HU. The pick-HU is used directly as the shipping-HU. On the way to the staging area, you bring the pallet to a shrink wrapper, but this step is not represented in the system. To configure this alternative, see Configuring Alternative Process without Packing Station [Page 43]. This alternative is not described in the process steps and test case. The following figures illustrate the correlation between the physical process and the manual or automatic activities in the system: Outbound Process Using Wave, Pick-HU, Packing, Staging and Loading 5 SAP Library Outbound Process Using Wave, Pick-HU, Packing, Staging, and Loading – Part 1 Physical Activity Step 1 Assign the outbound delivery orders to routes (EWM) The system assigns outbound delivery orders to routes Step 2 Create waves (EWM) Step 3 Create a TU (EWM) System Activity The system builds picking waves The shipping office clerk orders transportation capacity The shipper confirms the transportation capacity and communicates an external identifier The shipping office clerk creates a TU with the external identifier and the route Step 4 Release the waves (EWM) The system releases the waves, creates WOs, and assigns them to queues Step 5 Pick the goods (EWM) A warehouse worker logs on as a resource The system proposes the next WO in the queue to be processed The warehouse worker puts a pickHU onto the resource The warehouse worker creates the pick-HU The warehouse worker picks the goods into the pick-HU and moves the pick HU to the packing station The warehouse worker confirms the WO Step 6 Pack the goods (EWM) A packer logs on as a resource The packer scans the pick-HU The packer prepares a shipping HU The packer creates the shipping HU The system prints HU labels The packer labels the shipping HU and repacks the goods from the pick-HU into the shipping HU The packer confirms the repacking The packer weighs and closes the shipping HU The system prints the shipping HU labels and creates a WO The packer labels the shipping HU Outbound Process Using Wave, Pick-HU, Packing, Staging, and Loading – Part 1 Outbound Process Using Wave, Pick-HU, Packing, Staging and Loading 6 SAP Library Outbound Process Using Wave, Pick-HU, Packing, Staging, and Loading – Part 2 Physical Activity Step 7 Stage the goods (EWM) System Activity A warehouse worker logs on as a resource The warehouse worker scans the shipping HU The system determines the open WO for the shipping HU The warehouse worker moves the shipping HU to the staging area The warehouse worker confirms the WO Step 8 A truck arrives at the checkpoint and drives to the door (EWM) A truck arrives The checkpoint clerk determines the door and confirms the arrival of the truck The checkpoint clerk communicates the door to the truck driver The truck drives to the door Step 9 Load the truck (EWM) A warehouse worker logs on as a resource The warehouse worker scans the shipping HU The system determines the door for loading The warehouse worker moves the shipping HU to the truck The warehouse worker confirms the loading of the shipping HU Step 10 Post the goods issue and print the delivery notes and road waybill (EWM) The shipping office clerk posts the goods issue The system prints the delivery notes and the road waybill The shipping office clerk hands over the delivery notes and the road waybill to the truck driver Step 11 The truck leaves (EWM) The truck leaves The shipping office clerk confirms the departure of the truck Outbound Process Using Wave, Pick-HU, Packing, Staging, and Loading – Part 2 When the outbound delivery orders are created, the system automatically assigns the outbound delivery orders to routes depending on scheduled dates. After the route assignment, the outbound delivery orders are assigned to picking waves automatically. A shipping office clerk orders transportation capacity from the shipper for each route. After the confirmation by the shipper, the shipping office clerk creates transportation units (TUs) and assigns them to the route and a door used for this route. With the automatic release of the waves, the warehouse activities begin. Warehouse workers pick the goods from different areas in the warehouse using radio frequency (RF) devices and bring them to a packing station where they are consolidated and packed into shipping HUs such as europallets. The packer attaches shipping labels to the shipping HUs. The shipping HUs are then moved to the Outbound Process Using Wave, Pick-HU, Packing, Staging and Loading 7 SAP Library staging area. When the truck arrives, it is checked in and directed to the door. The goods are loaded from the staging area into the truck. When the loading is complete, the shipping office clerk posts the goods issue (GI), prints the delivery notes and the road waybill, and hands them over to the truck driver. The shipping office clerk checks out the truck and the truck leaves the door and the premises. This process does not use the following function: Invoicing before goods issue to print pro forma invoices. Prerequisites Customer orders and outbound deliveries exist in SAP ERP. For more information about the configuration prerequisites, see Configuration of Outbound Process with Wave, Pick-HU, Packing, Staging, and Loading [Page 13] Process The business process runs in SAP EWM as follows: 1. Assign the outbound delivery orders to routes (EWM) This step is carried out automatically when outbound delivery orders are created. The system assigns the outbound delivery orders to routes, which are determined based on the delivery dates and the route schedules. If the system cannot find a route for an outbound delivery order (see the monitoring section below), a warehouse clerk needs to determine the cause of the failure (for example, missing master data due to a new route or a new ship-to party). Once the data is corrected by the warehouse clerk, he or she retriggers the route redetermination. 2. Create waves (EWM) When outbound delivery orders are created, the system automatically assigns the outbound delivery orders to waves. The wave assignment is carried out based on the route and the activity area. If the system cannot determine a wave for an outbound delivery (see the monitoring section below), a shipping office clerk has to check the log for the wave assignment and if necessary, make the necessary settings in the system. Afterwards, the shipping office clerk retriggers the wave assignment. 3. Create a TU (EWM) The shipping office clerk orders transportation capacity from the shipper for the routes. The shipper confirms the transportation capacity and the shipping office clerk receives an identifier for each transport. For truck ordering it may be useful to check the expected volume and weight per scheduled route (see the monitoring section below). Once the transportation has been confirmed by the shipper, the shipping office clerk creates one TU for each route with the received identifier from the shipper and assigns each TU to the route and a door used for this route in the system. In exceptional cases, for example, if the customer raises the priority for the order, the shipping office clerk unassigns the corresponding outbound delivery order from the wave. Afterwards he or she manually assigns the outbound delivery order to a different route and route schedule, and to a different wave. 4. Release the waves (EWM) Outbound Process Using Wave, Pick-HU, Packing, Staging and Loading 8 SAP Library Upon the automatic wave release, the system creates warehouse tasks (WTs). The system joins the WTs together into warehouse orders (WOs) to optimize the working packages for the pickers. The WOs are used to pick the goods and move them to a packing station. The WOs are assigned to different queues according to specific criteria such as the activity area and the type of resource necessary to access the storage bins. Within one WO, the WTs are sorted according to specific criteria such as the pick path. If no WTs can be created for some of the wave items (see the monitoring section below), for example, due to insufficient stock, a warehouse clerk checks the log for the wave release and the stock for the given outbound delivery order item. If necessary, he or she triggers a pick denial or replenishment. Once the stock is sufficient, the warehouse clerk releases the wave manually. 5. Pick the goods (EWM) In this step a warehouse worker picks the goods and brings them to the packing station. This step is carried out using an RF device. The warehouse worker goes to the starting point for picking, chooses the equipment necessary for the picking (for example, a vehicle and an RF device) and logs on as a resource. The warehouse worker puts a wire basket as the pick-HU (not created in the system yet) onto the vehicle. Each pick-HU has a permanent HU number and bar code on it. The warehouse worker receives the first WO of the queue he or she is assigned to on his or her mobile device. He or she is prompted to create the pick-HU for this WO. For this purpose he or she scans the bar code of the pick-HU. He or she then drives to the first source bin of the first WT displayed on the RF device, picks the required quantity of the product, and puts the product into the pickHU proposed by the system. To verify that the WT is carried out correctly, he or she scans data such as source bin, product, pick-HU to verify the data and enters the quantity. After all fields have been verified, the WT is confirmed, and the worker proceeds with the execution of the next WT displayed on his or her RF device. After the last WT of the WO is confirmed, the warehouse worker is prompted to bring the pick-HU to the packing station. There he or she moves the pick-HU from the resource to the packing station and confirms this step in the system. He or she then returns to the starting point for picking to prepare the pick-HU for the next WO. If the picker finds a quantity smaller than the requested quantity in the storage bin, he or she enters an exception code and records the quantity difference in the WT by entering the quantity he or she has actually picked. With the confirmation, the system reduces the stock in the current storage bin by the difference quantity and automatically tries to create a new pick-WT from another storage bin. If possible, the system adds the new WT to the current WO of the picker. If not, a new WO is created for the WT and is assigned to a queue. The exceptional situation that a new WT cannot be created, for example, because there is no other stock of the product in the warehouse or only in a reserve storage type, can be seen in the monitor. This requires manual interaction, for example, triggering a pick denial or replenishment (see the monitoring section below). Another possible procedure can be that the picker uses an exception to block the storage bin and triggers an inventory counting to correct the quantity in the storage bin as a whole. Outbound Process Using Wave, Pick-HU, Packing, Staging and Loading 9 SAP Library When the last carton of a pallet is picked from the source bin, the empty pallet remains at the source bin and is removed during the putaway of a new pallet into the storage bin. 6. Pack the goods (EWM) At the packing station, a warehouse worker packs the goods into shipping HUs (for example, europallets) for each consolidation group. A consolidation group is used to group the goods that should be packed and shipped together (for example, for one specific customer and route). The packer can use the monitor to know when to start packing for a certain consolidation group and what kind of packaging material to be used (see the monitoring section below). The packer takes a packaging material (for example, a europallet) and creates an HU. He or she prints an HU identification label. He or she moves the goods from a pick-HU to the shipping HU. He or she scans the pick-HU, the product to be repacked, and the shipping HU. The system creates internally a WT for the movement of the product from the pick-HU to the shipping HU and confirms it immediately. The empty pick-HU is deleted automatically upon the WT confirmation. The wire baskets are returned later to the starting point. Once a shipping HU has been completely packed (the HU is physically full or there are no more open WTs for the consolidation group), it is weighed and an additional label is printed. It contains HU information such as the customer, route, weight, and volume. The packer confirms the completion of the shipping HU in the system. This triggers the creation of an HU WT to move the HU to the staging area. If the packer finds a quantity smaller than the requested quantity in the pick-HU, he or she enters an exception code and records the quantity difference in the WT by entering the quantity he or she has actually packed. The system corrects the stock in the pick-HU with the confirmation of the difference. This exceptional case can be seen in the monitor and requires manual interaction (see the monitoring section below). 7. Stage the goods (EWM) In this step a warehouse worker moves the shipping HUs to multiple staging areas. This step is carried out using an RF device. The warehouse worker chooses the equipment necessary for the staging (for example, a vehicle and an RF device) and logs on as a resource. The worker picks a shipping HU from the packing station and scans its ID. The system automatically finds the open HU WT created upon completion of the shipping HU. The worker is prompted to bring the shipping HU to a staging area. There he or she drops the shipping HU and scans the staging bin, thus confirming the HU WT. He or she drives back to the packing station to proceed with the next shipping HU. 8. A truck arrives at the checkpoint and drives to the door (EWM) When the truck arrives, a checkpoint clerk chooses the TU with the external identifier (a unique number assigned to the TU during creation). If the door assigned to the truck is not free yet, the truck must wait. Once the door is free, the checkpoint clerk advises the truck driver to drive to the assigned door. Assuming a small to medium sized yard, the checkpoint clerk confirms the arrival of the truck at the door. This step is necessary for the checkpoint clerk to see that the door is occupied. Outbound Process Using Wave, Pick-HU, Packing, Staging and Loading 10 SAP Library For large yards it would be possible to have the arrival at the door confirmed by the shipping office clerk in a separate step. In this case the checkpoint clerk only confirms the arrival of the truck at the checkpoint. 9. Load the truck (EWM) A warehouse worker begins with the loading from the staging area. This step is carried out using an RF device. The warehouse worker chooses the equipment necessary for the loading (for example, a vehicle and an RF device) and logs on as a resource. The warehouse worker picks a shipping HU from the staging area and scans its ID. The warehouse worker loads the shipping HU onto the truck and scans the door bin. The system automatically creates a WT for loading the TU assigned to this door and confirms it in the same step. The warehouse worker proceeds with the next shipping HU until the staging area is empty. He or she then goes to the shipping office. The shipping office clerk checks that all delivery items have been loaded onto the truck and confirms the completion of the loading. If the warehouse worker loads an HU that is designated for a different route than the route of the TU, he or she is notified by the system and can reverse the loading, if necessary. 10. Post the goods issue and print the delivery notes and road waybill (EWM) The shipping office clerk posts the GI for the TU. This triggers the printing of the delivery note for each delivery and the road waybill for the TU. The shipping office clerk hands over the delivery notes and road waybill to the truck driver. The goods issue is sent to SAP ERP where the billing can begin and an advanced shipping notification (ASN) can be sent to the customer. 11. The truck leaves (EWM) The truck leaves the door and the premises. The shipping office clerk confirms the departure of the truck from the checkpoint and, therefore, from the door. This step is necessary for the checkpoint clerk to see that the door is free. For large yards it would be possible to have the departure from the checkpoint confirmed separately by the checkpoint clerk.

Prerequisites In SAP ERP, you have the standard ERP Customizing available. In SAP ERP, you have a sales document type available that you want to use for sales orders and a delivery document type that you want to use for the deliveries. In this process we use sales document type OR and delivery document type LF for configuration. Process 1. Configuring Tax Calculation for Sales Orders in SAP ERP [Page 18] 2. Configuring Allowed Sales Areas for Sales Document Types in SAP ERP [Page 19] 3. Configuring Deactivation of Date Scheduling in SAP ERP [Page 20] 4. Configuring Document Types for Outbound Deliveries in SAP ERP [Page 21] Result You create sales orders with document type OR in SAP ERP. An outbound delivery is automatically created with document type LF in SAP ERP. 2.1.1 Configuring Tax Calculation for Sales Orders in SAP ERP You use this procedure to configure a condition record for the calculation of the price including tax during sales order creation. Procedure 1. On the SAP Easy Access screen, choose Logistics Sales and Distribution Master Data Conditions Select Using Condition Type Create . 2. Enter the condition type MWST and choose Enter. 3.

More Information For more information, see SAP Library for SAP Extended Warehouse Management on SAP Help Portal at http://help.sap.com/ewm under Delivery Processing Documents in Delivery Processing . 2.2.2 Checking Determination of Document Types and Item Types You can use this procedure to check how the system determines the document types and item types for outbound delivery order creation. To separate the outbound business processes, the outbound delivery orders for this business process are to be created with a special document type in SAP ERP. For the outbound delivery request creation and the outbound delivery order creation in SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM), the document type used in the ERP system (for example, LF) must be mapped to the relevant EWM document type. The same applies to the item types. Procedure 1. Check the following entry in Customizing for Extended Warehouse Management under Interfaces ERP Integration Delivery Processing Map Document Types from ERP System to EWM : Document Type from ERP Mapping Delivery Type – Document Type LF OUTB If you use another delivery type than LF, create the entries for your ERP delivery type. Outbound Process Using Wave, Pick-HU, Packing, Staging and Loading 24 SAP Library 2. Check the following entries in Customizing for Extended Warehouse Management under Interfaces ERP Integration Delivery Processing Map Item Types from ERP System to EWM : Document Type from ERP Item Type from ERP Document Type Mapping of ERP Item Type LF TAN OUTB ODLV LF TATX OUTB OTXT If you use another delivery type than LF or different item types, create the entries for your ERP delivery type and item types accordingly. Result You have checked the determination of the document type and item types in EWM during outbound delivery order creation. You create an outbound delivery with document type LF and item type TAN in SAP ERP. The outbound delivery order is created with document type OUTB and item type ODLV in EWM.

Procedure 1. Check the following entries in Customizing for Extended Warehouse Management under Goods Issue Process Outbound Delivery Manual Settings Define Document Types for Outbound Delivery Process : Document Type Document Category Date Profile OUTB FDO /SCWM/OUT_FD OUTB ODR /SCWM/OUT_REQ OUTB PDO /SCWM/OUT_PRD 2. Check the following entries in Customizing for Extended Warehouse Management under Goods Issue Process Outbound Delivery Manual Settings Define Item Types for Outbound Delivery Process : Item Type Document Category Item Category Date Profile ODLV FDO DLV - ODLV ODR DLV /SCWM/OUT_REQ_DLV ODLV PDO DLV /SCWM/OUT_PRD_DLV OTXT FDO TXT - OTXT ODR TXT - OTXT PDO TXT - For the item types OTXT (Text Item Outbound Delivery), no date profile is required as these items are not relevant for warehouse activities and are only for information purposes. The date profile for the outbound delivery item type is not set as during delivery processing, the system makes use of the profile for outbound delivery orders instead. It makes sense only for some profiles to define them on outbound delivery item type level. This is, for example, the case for the field control profile. 3. Check the date profiles as follows: 1. In Customizing for Extended Warehouse Management, choose CrossProcess Settings Delivery Processing Dates/Times Define Date Profiles . 2. Select a date profile, for example, /SCWM/OUT_REQ. 3. Choose Date/Time Types in the dialog structure. 4. Check the following entries: Date/Time Type Inactive Outbound Process Using Wave, Pick-HU, Packing, Staging and Loading 26 SAP Library ETRANSPORT - ETRANSPORTPL - TCDLOCGI X TDELIVERY - TDELIVERYF X TOUTYARD 5. Repeat the steps 2-4 for each date profile mentioned in the previous steps, for example for date profile /SCWM/OUT_REQ. Since the date/time type TDELIVERY is active in profile /SCWM/OUT_REQ, the corresponding date and time can be set to the planned delivery date from SAP ERP. Since the TDELIVERY date/time type is also active in profile /SCWM/OUT_PRD, the date and time can be filled in the outbound delivery orders based on the data in the outbound delivery requests. 4. Check the following entry in Customizing for Extended Warehouse Management under Interfaces ERP Integration Delivery Processing Map Date Types from ERP System to EWM : The mapping below is defined to set the planned delivery date to the date of type TDELIVERY in the outbound delivery request. Date/Time Type from ERP Document Type End Date WSHDRLFDAT OUTB TDELIVERY Result You have checked that the planned delivery date from SAP ERP is mapped to the planned delivery date in the outbound delivery order.

Once a goods issue is posted for an outbound delivery, the change mode is set to U (Update) as the goods issue posting updates the outbound delivery data. The goods movement status NSNS stands for a change of the goods movement status from Not Stated to Not Started whereas NSFI stands for a change of the goods movement status from Not Started to Completed. These settings ensure that a delivery note is printed during outbound delivery creation in the shipping office based on the action profile /SCWM/FDO_01_PRINT. These settings also ensure that if a goods issue is canceled and an additional goods issue for the same outbound delivery is posted, no additional delivery note is printed (see setting for goods movement Outbound Process Using Wave, Pick-HU, Packing, Staging and Loading 56 SAP Library status) and that if there is a change to the outbound delivery that is not due to a goods issue posting, no delivery note is printed.

You configure the system to create one waybill printout at the printer located in the shipping office. You can choose between a CMR waybill, which is mainly used in Europe, and a VICS waybill, which is mainly used in the USA. By default, the waybills are printed using a PDF-based form. Prerequisites You have defined an appropriate printer for printing PDF-based forms. You cannot use a printer with the device type SAPWIN/SWIN, such as the default printer LP01. For more information, see Printing Interactive Forms in the SAP NetWeaver documentation under SAP Printing Guide (BC-CCM-PRN) Print Architecture and Printing Methods Printing Interactive Forms . If you cannot define an appropriate printer for printing PDF-based forms, you can switch from a PDF-based form to a Smartform form as described in the procedure. Procedure 1.

Exception code DIFB can be used if the bin the picker should pick from is not accessible and should be blocked for further picks. You confirm a pick warehouse order (see the business context) on the SAP Easy Access screen for Extended Warehouse Management under Execution Logon to RF Environment. . The system allows you to enter the exceptions DIFW and DIFB in the corresponding picking and packing radio frequency (RF) transactions and to report difference quantities. In case of a difference reported with exception code DIFW, the difference quantity is posted to the difference account (see the internal process code and the difference category). The quantity is handled as an inventory difference. In case of a difference reported with exception code DIFB, the system keeps the difference quantity in the source storage bin (see internal process code and difference category) and blocks the source bin (see the status management action identification (STM Action ID) and the business transaction (BTran)). You can test the exception code setup in Customizing for Extended Warehouse Management under Cross-Process Settings Exception Handling Test Configuration of Exception Codes .
