There is one sales order that did not appear in my open sales order report list. For selection parameters, I have input the Overall status fill for status 'A' and 'B'. Please investigate and let me the reason so that I can inform my staff to prevent this from happening again.
Answers
During the sales order item availability check (VA02 - Edit - Check Availability), do not select the field Fix qty/date.
To pass through this pop up screen, please instead use the “continue” tab.
By clicking on the “fix quantity” box we are telling SAP to fix the quantity on the creation day and this zero because there is no stock, giving it an “irrelevant” status.
This then influences our daily back order report by excluding this item because of this status which therefore won’t alert Logistics to purchase the item.
If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to ask.
Meaning of Field Fix Qty/Date
Delivery date and quantity fixed
Indicates whether you want to fix the delivery dates and quantities that are confirmed after an availability check for the item.
Use
You use this field if you cannot confirm the delivery date or quantity that the customer initially requests.
Procedure
If the customer accepts the delivery and quantity confirmed by the system, mark the field. The system then passes on MRP requirements so that the confirmed date and quantity can be met.
Note
If you leave the field blank, the delivery date and confirmed quantity are not fixed. If you are able to expedite either the manufacture or purchase of goods, you may be able to deliver the goods closer to the customer's original request (and sooner than the date the system confirmed).
