Generally the only field to be completed is the ‘Valuation Type’ against each line material line item entered.

Click on the Valuation Type drop down menu:

Click on Save. The system will generate the Sales Order number for your reference. The assigned number is in the correct range of 0000000001- 0001999999 for the Internal Sales Order and 0002000001- 0002999999 for the External ones and it is assigned progressively regardless of Plant/Hub location specified.

 Hint:In case of shared shipment (e.g. two or more Partners requesting separately for transport services for cargoes on shared flight) and where there might be the need of single consignee that receives the cargoes for all the Partners sharing the flight, a consolidated Packing List can be issued by listing all material line items (which are only logistics relevant) in the main Sales Order (i.e. the one with higher value or higher weight). In this way, a consolidated packing list can be created for the shared shipment instead of having one packing list vs each SO required. UCS representative has to create as many SOs as Partner’s requests received.
