3044936 - Partial delivery can still be created although the option "Only complete delivery allowed" has been chosen

Symptom

Partial delivery can still be created although the option "Only complete delivery allowed" has been chosen.

Environment

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Create a sales order using the "Create Sales Orders - VA01" app.
  2. Display item details and maintain the field "Part.Dlv./Item" under the "Shipping" tab with value "C" (Only complete delivery allowed).
  3. In the "Create Outbound Delivery - With Order Reference" app, create an outbound delivery with a partial quantity from the sales order.
  4. Click "Save" and receive an information message VL062 "Full delivery is required".
  5. Click "Enter" and find the outbound delivery can still be saved successfully.

Cause

Message VL062 "Full delivery is required" is designed as an information message (Message Type "I") instead of a warning message (Message Type "W") or an error message (Message Type "E").

Resolution

Currently in SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition, there is no such a configuration step to change the message type of VL062 from information message "I" to warning message "W" or error message "E".

However, item confirmation is based on the ATP check. Since the CE2308 release, there is an SSCUI 'Configure Default Settings by Sales Area' (ID: 106305) that allows defining the default confirmation approach during ATP checks. The availability check rule includes an option 'B - Full Delivery'. With this setting, ATP will only confirm if a full delivery is possible; otherwise, it will give a zero confirmation. This setting also applies in the context of Backorder Processing (BOP).
