Sales Order Processing: Sale from stock 1 Purpose


This scenario describes the entire process sequence for a standard sales process (sale from stock) with a customer. The business process encompasses all steps from creating an order to the clearing of a customer account after payment is received. The process starts with the creation of a customer's standard sales order. Depending on the customer and the material, various special events take place during the order entry, such as customer/material pricing, insertion of applicable discounts, checking the availability of the materials, and checking the customers credit history. It is checked whether enough material exists in the required storage location. If not, a stock movement takes place. Then, the picking slips are generated to the warehouse clerks to stage the product for shipment to the customer. Once picked, the physically shipped quantity has to be registered in the system to ensure that there are no differences between the sales order and the delivery document. In the case of actual differences, this can also be documented and ensures correct postings. After the completion of picking, the warehouse clerk will have to systematically relieve the inventory. This relief of inventory is the actual recording of the physical quantity that is being shipped to the customer. These results in the recording of the cost of goods sold in financial accounting. Once the inventory has been relieved, the delivery can be invoiced and the revenue together with the cost of goods sold is recorded in management accounting. This step signifies the end of the business transaction in Sales and Distribution.

2 Prerequisites
2.1 Master Data and Organizational Data
SAP Best Practices Standard Values Essential master and organizational data was created in your ERP system in the implementation phase, such as the data that reflects the organizational structure of your company and master data that suits its operational focus, for example, master data for materials, vendors, and customers. This master data usually consists of standardized SAP Best Practices default values, and enables you to go through the process steps of this scenario.

Additional Master Data (Default Values) You can test the scenario with other SAP Best Practices default values that have the same characteristics. Check your SAP ECC system to find out which other material master data exists.

Using Your Own Master Data
