| Referenced sales schedules |  |
| If your business partner uses references to call-off goods at the assembly line, the requirements are communicated based on references. A reference is used to identify specific requirements that your business partner needs in a specific sequence at a specific line station of the assembly line. To use referenced sales schedules between you and your business partner, the Referenced Schedule check box in the Items - Sales Business Partner (tdisa0510m000) session must be selected for an item. If this check box is selected, you can only receive referenced sales schedules from your business partner for that specific item. If the EDI message, as specified in the Items - Sales Business Partner (tdisa0510m000) session, is: Material Release, you cannot use referenced sales schedules. Shipping Schedule or Shipping Schedule only, you can use referenced sales schedules. Sequence Shipping Schedule, you must use referenced sales schedules. To create referenced sales schedules If you receive a referenced sales schedule, the Referenced Schedule check box is selected in the Sales Schedules (tdsls3111m000) session. Note For each reference, only one sales schedule line can exist. If a sales schedule is referenced, no sales contract is linked to the sales schedule. A contract can however be linked to the sales schedule line. Sales release position details If the sales schedule is referenced and of the Shipping Schedule type, and you receive an update of the sales schedule, ERP LN does not create a sales schedule revision. Instead, the sales schedule is updated. If an update arrives for a sales schedule line, also the sales schedule line is updated. To be able to keep track of the updates, ERP LN files the sales schedule line updates as revisions in the Sales Release Line Details (tdsls3515m000) session. From the Specific menu of the Sales Release Line Details (tdsls3515m000) session, you can start the Sales Schedule - Lines (tdsls3107m000) session to view the sales schedule line to which the sales release position detail record refers. Sequence shipping information If a referenced sales schedule line of the Sequence Shipping Schedule type is created, ERP LN enters: Sequence shipping information in the Sequence Shipping Information (tdsls3517m000) session. The sequence shipping information informs you about the sequence in which your ship-to business partner needs the items on the assembly line. In this session, you can also view the sequence shipping detail revisions. Shipping sequence details in the Shipping Sequence (whinh4520m000) session of Warehouse Management. In this session, you can view the shipping sequence data for each shipment reference. You must ship the goods in the sequence that is specified in this session. Only the latest revision of the shipping sequence information is displayed. Each sales schedule line results in one shipping sequence detail line. For more information on shipping sequence details, refer to Sales schedules and Warehouse Management. To approve referenced sales schedules If the Automatic approval check box in the Items - Sales Business Partner (tdisa0510m000) session is selected, ERP LN directly approves each referenced sales schedule line separately when it is created. If the Automatic approval check box is cleared, you can approve referenced sales schedules by: Sales schedule header, in the Approve Sales Schedules (tdsls3211m000) session, or from the Specific menu of the Sales Schedules (tdsls3111m000) session.
