If you have not yet generated a distribution model for inbound and outbound deliveries, you create this
distribution model in Customizing under Logistics -> Logistics Execution -> Decentralized WMS
Integration -> Central Processing -> Distribution -> Generate Distribution Model. Here you set the Use
change management for inbound and outbound deliveries indicator.
If the distribution model for inbound and outbound deliveries already exists, enter the following methods
in the central system manually into the distribution model using ALE Customizing:
o
InboundDelivery.DeliveryChange
OutboundDelivery.DeliveryChange
You also set the filter for recipient determination for these methods:
o
From the central system to the decentralized system, recipient determination takes place using the
warehouse number filter.
______________________________________________________________
SAP AG
SAP System
______________________________________________________________
From the decentralized system to the central system, you can use the logical system filter for
recipient determination if both systems have a release status of SAP R/3 Enterprise.
You then generate the partner profile for the new methods, and distribute the distribution model to the
connected decentralized WMS.
Within the decentralized WMS, a blocking concept must be introduced to ensure that you cannot process
the delivery simultaneously in both systems. To implement this, choose in Customizing Logistics ->
Logistics Execution -> Decentralized WMS Integration -> Central Processing -> Distribution Model ->
Activate Cross-System Lock.
See also
For more information on the cross-system lock, see the SAP Library under Basis -> Client-Server
Technology -> Cross-System Lock (CSL).
For the warehouse number, set whether deliveries should be distributed directly after they are
created, or with a delay.
For more information, see the Implementation Guide (IMG) under Logistics Execution -->
Decentralized WMS Integration --> Central Processing --> Application --> Activiate Decentralized
WMS. This setting affects all inbound and outbound deliveries that are processed in the relevant
warehouse number.

For the corresponding delivery type, set the distribution mode for the deliveries. The permitted
modes for distributing inbound and outbound deliveries are as follows:
a)
b)
Distribution is suppressed.

performance because the system does not process and lock the entire outbound delivery every time you
confirm a transfer order item.
You can update the outbound delivery at the following times:
o
The system transfers the confirmation data to the source outbound delivery immediately every time
you confirm a transfer order item. In this case, the delayed update of the outbound delivery is not
active.
The system transfers the confirmation data to the outbound delivery as soon as all of the items of a
transfer order have been confirmed.
The system transfers the confirmation data to the outbound delivery as soon as all of the transfer
orders that were created for one outbound delivery have been confirmed.
This type of update is not designed for TOs for multiple deliveries. For TOs for multiple deliveries,
make sure that the system transfers the confirmation data to the outbound delivery as soon as all of
the items of the TO have been confirmed.
Effects on Customizing
You activate the delayed update of the outbound delivery in the Customizing for Warehouse Management
under Interfaces -> Shipping -> Define Shipping Control -> Shipping Control per Warehouse Number
with the indicator Late Delivery Update.
A Business Add-In for Influencing the Late Update of Deliveries is also available in the Customizing for
Warehouse Management under System Modifications -> Business Add-Ins in Warehouse

For a group of outbound deliveries via the transaction Create Transfer Order for Multiple Orders
(LT0S). To do this, choose Logistics -> Logistics Execution -> Outbound Process -> Goods Issue
for Outbound Delivery -> Picking -> Create Transfer Order -> For multiple deliveries.
After you have created a transfer order for multiple deliveries, you can split it into smaller transfer orders
according to certain criteria (for example, volume, weight, or TO items), so that these smaller transfer
orders can be processed by several pickers. To do this, use user exit MWMTO012.
The system supports the same functions for transfer orders for multiple deliveries as for regular transfer
orders.
The system transfers the confirmation data to the source outbound delivery immediately every time
you confirm a transfer order item. In this case, the delayed update of the outbound delivery is not

o
Make general TRM settings, including defining the TRM sites, activities and exception reason codes
Define number ranges for requests, tasks, resources and warehouse supervisor messages
Make Resource Management settings, including defining resource types and resource element types
Maintain task critical time windows, mechanisms that facilitate the synchronization of tasks
Make Site Map Management settings, including defining TRM objects such as zones and working

Make settings that affect the way in which data is presented on resource presentation devices, such
as defining menus and pushbuttons

Task-Resource Optimization
TRM optimizes warehouse processes by determining optimal routes and creating and prioritizing tasks to
be executed by warehouse resources.
Execution Control
TRM enables you to control the execution of tasks in predefined areas of your site, facilitating
task-resource optimization by preventing the crowding of resources.
Monitoring and Response Tools - TRM Monitor
TRM enables you to monitor all aspects of warehouse operations and invoke methods to respond to
constantly changing circumstances in the warehouse.
Alerts and Exception Handling Tools - TRM Alert Monitor
TRM provides information on actual and arising problematic situations in the warehouse, and enables
you to handle exceptions.
Mobile Presentation
TRM allows you to customize the presentation of data to a resource on a variety of presentation devices.
LES and TRM work together to manage and maintain warehouse operations. However, each system
maintains a separation and has clearly defined responsibilities. LES provides the details about what
activity should be performed for which object, while TRM determines how and when the request is
executed.

The matchcode objects VMVL (outbound deliveries), VMVM (inbound deliveries), and VMVG (rough
goods receipts) are deleted after the data transfer during the upgrade, along with the corresponding
objects (matchcode IDs, matchcode tables). You should therefore check your programs to see if any of
these objects are used, and should replace these according to the above procedure. Because the new tables
and views contain at least the same fields as the previous tables, for programs, you normally only need to
adjust the SELECT links to matchcode tables and the data definition of the target table or target structure
for these links.
Any modifications to the matchcode objects are lost during the upgrade.
Effects on System Administration
You can use the RLE_SHP_IDX_TABLE_MAINTAIN report to analyze the data status in the index

You can display the individual partial goods receipts in the document flow of the inbound delivery using
the relevant number of the existing material documents.
In addition, you can cancel partial goods receipts that have already been posted, at material document
level. You can cancel single material documents or all material documents. You cannot cancel partial
quantities within the material document items. Instead you can only cancel the complete document
created and then return transfer the quantities again.
