Mobile Data Entry and VAS
Exercise 9: Creation and Use of a VAS Order
Exercise Objectives
After completing this exercise, you will be able to:
• Create and process a VAS order
Business Example
You need to understand how a VAS order is created and processed.
Task:
In this exercise, the course participant will create an outbound delivery which, in turn, will create VAS orders for labelling and wrapping. Stock will be moved to the first work center to allow confirmation of the first VAS order. Confirmation of the second order is optional.
1. Create an outbound delivery without order reference for sold-to party 3000, and 10 pieces of material VAS-001. Use the organizational levels in the following table:
Field Name or Data Type Value or Text Entry
Shipping Point 3000
Delivery Type LO
Sales Organization 3000
Distribution Channel 10
Division 00
2. Check the VAS Monitor for warehouse 089 to see the outbound delivery and the VAS orders.
3. In a new session, create a transfer order (TO) for the movement of the items to the work center.
Note: As the TO is being processed, you should see the stock moving into the storage type and bin associated with the labelling work center. This connection is established in configuration. Follow the menu path Logistics Execution → Warehouse Management → Value-Added Services (VAS) → General VAS Settings → Define VAS Work Centers to see the settings.

4. Confirm the transfer order.
5. Check the status of the process in the VAS Monitor.
6. Now confirm the VAS order. This, in effect, allows the processor of the order to read what should be done, do it, and then confirm to the system that they have done it.
7. Now check the status of the order again as described in Step 5. The status of the first order has now changed; there should also be a transfer order to move the stock to the second work center.
8. (Optional) Process the second VAS order by cycling back through Steps 4 to 7.
Solution 9: Creation and Use of a VAS Order
Task:
In this exercise, the course participant will create an outbound delivery which, in turn, will create VAS orders for labelling and wrapping. Stock will be moved to the first work center to allow confirmation of the first VAS order. Confirmation of the second order is optional.
1. Create an outbound delivery without order reference for sold-to party 3000, and 10 pieces of material VAS-001. Use the organizational levels in the following table:
Field Name or Data Type Value or Text Entry
Shipping Point 3000
Delivery Type LO
Sales Organization 3000
Distribution Channel 10
Division 00
a) Use the menu path Logistics → Sales and Distribution → Shipping and Transportation → Outbound Delivery → Create → Single Document
→ Without Order Reference or transaction VL01NO.
b) Enter a Planned GI date 2 days from today and enter the rest of the data. Make sure the stock will be picked from storage location 0089 by selecting the Picking tab. Save the delivery.
2. Check the VAS Monitor for warehouse 089 to see the outbound delivery and the VAS orders.
a) Use the menu path Logistics → Logistics Execution → Internal Whse Processes → Value Added Services (VAS) → VAS Monitor or the transaction code LVASM. Enter warehouse 089 and choose Enter.
You should be able to see the warehouse at the top of the hierarchy.
b) Drag and drop this onto the Outbound Deliveries menu option; it should expand to show your delivery. Now drag and drop this onto the VAS Orders menu item; it will now expand to show the two VAS orders, one for wrapping and one for labeling. Each has a status of A.

3. In a new session, create a transfer order (TO) for the movement of the items to the work center.
Note: As the TO is being processed, you should see the stock moving into the storage type and bin associated with the labelling work center. This connection is established in configuration. Follow the menu path Logistics Execution → Warehouse Management → Value-Added Services (VAS) → General VAS Settings → Define VAS Work Centers to see the settings.
a) Use the menu path Logistics → Logistics Execution → Outbound Process → Goods Issue for Outbound Delivery → Picking → Create Transfer Order → Single Document or transaction LT03.
b) Enter the warehouse number 089, enter and process the TO in the foreground.
c) Save the transfer order.
4. Confirm the transfer order.
a) Use transaction LT12.
b) Enter your Transfer order number.
c) Choose Enter and then Save.
5. Check the status of the process in the VAS Monitor.
a) Use transaction LVASM.
b) Enter warehouse 089 and select Enter.
c) By dragging and dropping as explained in Step 2, you can see that the status of the first order has changed from A to B.
6. Now confirm the VAS order. This, in effect, allows the processor of the order to read what should be done, do it, and then confirm to the system that they have done it.
a) Use the menu path Logistics → Logistics Execution → Internal Whse Processes → Value-Added Services (VAS) → Processing VAS Orders → LVASWC02 - Work Center or transaction LVASWC02, which confirms the order without using the RF menu.
b) Enter the warehouse 089, the work center VAS_LABEL and the outbound delivery number. Choose Enter.
c) Read the instructions associated with this order and then selectConfirm.

7. Now check the status of the order again as described in Step 5. The status of the first order has now changed; there should also be a transfer order to move the stock to the second work center.
a) Follow the steps detailed in Step 5.
8. (Optional) Process the second VAS order by cycling back through Steps 4 to 7.
a) See instructions for Steps 4 to 7.
