Hello community :-),

 

we have intercompany process (Company and Site 10, Company and Site 20). I have a Customer Order on Site 10 (external customer, released). MRP will create Distribution Order (planned). If I release this Distribution Order, system will create Purchase Order (Site 10, released) and Customer Order (Site 20, released).

 

We need to have this new Customer Order at Site 20 in status Planned. is there any way how to do it?

 

Current settings:

Sales Part

 

Sites

 

Internal Customer

Internal Supplier

 

Thank you for your help

Hi ​@rucnik

  When a distribution order is released, a released customer order line is created on the supply site and a released purchase order line is created on the demand site. The exact point at which a distribution order should be released is an important decision that affects the flexibility in planning distribution orders. If you think created customer order in planned status then it will affect your re-planning or palnning activities.

regards,

Piyal

Finaly we changed the intercompany process for intercompany process without distribution order. It means the customer use Supply Code = Int Purch Trans (on the CO line) and the users have to send objects (orders, invoices, ..) via MHS. In this process is CO created in planned status.

Hi ​@rucnik 

  Yes. I guess that Intersite flow is the best suited for you. Actually, Distribution order feature is a simplified way of transferring items internally. It is almost similar to the intersite flow. The intersite flow gives us many capabilities, and surely with a little complexicity compare to DO flow.
