Packing instruction / Packaging specification

Packing instruction is master data in ECC:

“A packing instruction serves as a template for the creation of a handling unit. In a packing

instruction, you define the materials and packaging materials to be packed in a handling unit.”

Packaging specification is the corresponding master data in SCM.

Furthermore the packaging specification in SCM is used for other processes like e.g. ATP

sourcing. Therefore the structures between ECC and SCM are not fully compatible.

Goals & concept

Situation:You want to use EWM for Goods Receipt from production and you want to create HU

automatically in EWM . You already have packing instructions in ECC and they are used

by several applications (not only warehouse). Hence you need a “copy” of the packing

instruction in EWM.

No standard interface like CIF is available in standard – only a solution for an

initial transfer from ECC to SCM 4.1: see note 832221.

This consulting solution is a new interface to transfer periodically the ECC

packing instructions to SCM packaging specifications.

Also the corresponding condition records (or only parts of it) can be transferred

to SCM. A project specific mapping must be added in SCM to fill the right

condition technique fields. Restrictions to certain fields exists. In a workshop the details of these mapping must be

clarified, before it can be added to the add-on.

Agenda

Technical aspects

The same interface technology as standard interfaces for ECC – EWM is used:

A new qRFC interface will be built to transfer and convert the packing instruction

information into SCM packaging specification.

The report can be used to schedule periodically a distribution of changed

packaging instructions to SCM.

Technical aspects

Good to know:

A distributed packaging specification is protected against changes in SCM

(no change / deletion allowed – adding condition records is allowed)

A nested packing instruction in ECC will result in a nested packaging

specification in SCM.

The linked documents (in ECC) are not distributed to SCM.

The ID of the ECC packing instruction and SCM packaging specification will be

the same.Due to technical restrictions for packaging specification IDs in SCM not all packing

instructions can be distributed: Valid characters include numbers from 0 to 9, letters from A

to Z, and the underscore '_„.

The SCM packaging specification contains more information than the ECC

packing instruction. Due to this reason, there are several fields in SCM

packaging specification not filled (e.g. quantity classification).

The report can be used for an initial transfer / one-time migration too.
