Automatic Batch Determination in Delivery

1. Configuration is required to automatically determine batches in delivery documents, including setting up batch management, allocating search procedures, and activating automatic batch determination. 2. Master data such as material classes, batch masters, and condition records must be maintained for the system to properly allocate batches. 3. When these configuration and master data steps are completed, the system will automatically trigger batch management and allocate an available batch during delivery processing.

Configuration steps for automatic Batch determination in delivery

By Bageerath Cheryala, Answerthink

To trigger the batch number in the delivery document automatically we need to do necessary
configuration and master data maintenance.

1. Batch management works on condition technique, menu path: SPRO  Logistics General 
Batch management  Batch determination and Batch check.

Here we need to create new strategy types if necessary and access sequence if necessary,
and also batch search procedure if necessary

2. Allocate the SD batch search procedure using the menu path: SPRO  Logistics General 
Batch management  Batch determination and Batch check  Batch Search Procedure
Allocation and check activation  Allocate SD search procedure/Activate check.

3. Activate Automatic Batch Determination in SD using menu path: SPRO  Logistics General
 Batch management  Batch determination and Batch check  Activate Automatic Batch
Determination in SD. Here we have two options, 1. To activate batch determination for sales
order item and 2. is to activate batch determination for delivery item, upon the requirement we
can activate at both the places,

But in general batch are activated only at delivery item level.

4. If we need shelf life expiration date for the batch we need to create a class using “t code:
CL01”, type in a name for the class and select the class type as “023 – Batch” and maintain
the characteristics as LOBM_VFDAT and LOBM_HSDAT (this for production).  

5. Once the class is created go to material master under classification tab and maintain the
class created.  

6. One more important setting in the material master is to check the batch management. This
need to be done before you process the material for orders.
7. Go to create batches for materials using t code: MSC1N or menu path: SAP Easy Access 
Logistics  Central Functions  Batch Management  Batch  Create/change/display.

You can create new batches for the materials and also maintain the Shelf life expiration date
(SLED) in the batch master.  

8. so as to determine the batch automatically we need to maintain a condition record for batch
search strategy type using t code: VCH1 or menu path: SAP Easy Access  Logistics 
Central Functions  Batch Management  Batch Determination  Batch Search Strategy 
for sales and distribution  create/change/display.

During the maintenance, maintain the class also in the condition record.  

These steps will automatically trigger batch management during delivery processing.
System will allot the batch automatically upon the availability of the stock in the batch.
