3794351 - Serial Number Assigned to Incorrect Inbound Delivery Item - SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

When creating an inbound delivery using the DeliveryRequest_In SOAP service, a serial number is assigned to an incorrect inbound delivery item.

The serial number is provided under the first DeliveryItem in the request payload. However, after the inbound delivery is created, the first item has no serial number and the serial number is assigned to the second item instead.

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

1. Create an inbound delivery using the DeliveryRequest_In SOAP service.
2. Send a payload containing multiple DeliveryItem nodes.
3. Provide DeliveryDocumentItemBySupplier for the delivery items without providing DeliveryDocumentItem.
4. Include a Serial node with a serial number under the first DeliveryItem.
5. Process the request and open the created inbound delivery.
6. Check the serial number assignment.
7. The serial number provided for the first item is assigned to the second inbound delivery item.

DeliveryDocumentItem is not provided for the delivery items in the inbound request.

Although DeliveryDocumentItem is documented as optional, in this scenario the serial number may not be assigned to the intended inbound delivery item when only DeliveryDocumentItemBySupplier is provided.

Provide DeliveryDocumentItem with a unique item number for each DeliveryItem in the DeliveryRequest_In payload.

For example:

<DeliveryItem>
    <DeliveryDocumentItem>ITEM_NUMBER</DeliveryDocumentItem>
    <DeliveryDocumentItemBySupplier>SUPPLIER_ITEM_NUMBER</DeliveryDocumentItemBySupplier>
    ...
    <Serial>
        <SerialNumber>SERIAL_NUMBER</SerialNumber>
    </Serial>
</DeliveryItem>

After adding DeliveryDocumentItem to the payload, the serial number is assigned to the intended inbound delivery item.
