Ho/eer /ith er$ little effort this eamle can bea#ate# to fit an$ c&stomer-secific sit&ation.
11 Introduction
Retailers often hae to #istrib&te merchan#ise centrall$ among a large n&mber of reciients Bfor
eamle stores. 4ne eamle /o&l# be fashion merchan#ise or romotional items in chainstore comanies. *erchan#ise can be #eliere# #irectl$ from the en#or to the reciient from a#istrib&tion center to a reciient or from the en#or to a #istrib&tion center an# then to thereciient.
1he merchan#ise #istrib&tion f&nctions of the SAP R3 s$stem enable $o& to carr$ o&t the#istrib&tion rocess efficientl$ from the lanning stage right thro&gh to shiing the merchan#ise.1he #istrib&tion rocess is #ii#e# into lanning an# eec&tion.
o& can &se an allocation table B&sh metho# or the collectie &rchase or#er B&ll metho# tolan merchan#ise #istrib&tion an# to then trigger an# eec&te #istrib&tion in the #istrib&tioncenter.
1he merchan#ise #istrib&tion f&nctionalit$ offers a high #egree of fleibilit$ beca&se regar#lessof the t$e of lanning Bthat is allocation table or collectie &rchase or#er merchan#ise caneither be lace# into stoc or asse# thro&gh the D, &sing the cross-#ocing or flo/-thro&ghmetho#. ,ross-#ocing an# flo/-thro&gh enable $o& to rocess merchan#ise F&icl$ an# cost-effectiel$ in &st a fe/ stes.
All merchan#ise #istrib&tion rocessing metho#s ass&me that the #istrib&tion area in the#istrib&tion center is emt$ an# that it /ill be emt$ again once the #istrib&tion rocess has beencarrie# o&t that is after the goo#s receie# hae been comletel$ #istrib&te# to all reciients. 5nthe case of cross-#ocing the merchan#ise is reace# for all reciients b$ the en#or before itis #eliere# an# then siml$ reloa#e#. "ith the flo/-thro&gh metho# the total reF&irement of a#istrib&tion c$cle is #eliere# an# ice# in the #istrib&tion 8one for reciient F&antities. 1/o#ifferent roce#&res are &se# for this.

1his scenario is #ii#e# into in#ii#&al rocesses that coer the entire ath of the merchan#isethro&gh the #istrib&tion center.
