Enter Global Address Per Order
Explanation
This activity defines a Global Address as a delivery address for a particular order. A
Global Address is a predefined address mainly used for delivery purposes. This address is not the end
customer's address but can be a logistic location address (e.g., port,yard,airport etc.) where the supplier
delivers the goods.
The Global Address uses a single occurrence functionality to share the address from the Customer Order to
Customer Order line. Hence, the single occurrence toggle will automatically be enabled when the user saves a Global
Address in customer order header.
Global Address field is visible in both the Delivery Address section of the Customer Order
Header and the Single Occurrence Address assistant.
Global Address can have default sourcing. It can be "Int Purch Dir" or "Purch
Order Dir".
Prerequisites
- A Global Address must have been defined.
- The Customer field on the Customer Order must be filled.
System Effects
- A Global Address delivery is defined for the order, and the ordered parts will be delivered to this
address.
- New order lines will be created for this delivery address as a Single Occurrence address.
- The Supply Country field of the customer order will be updated if the selected Global Address has the
"Update Supply Country" toggle enabled for default sourcing at the Global Address
.
Additionally, tax liability will change based on the supply country defined under the customer.
- If the selected Global Address has defined default sourcing, the Supply Code will automatically be fetched to
the newly created Customer Order line. The External Supplier or Site (Internal Supplier) will also be fetched
automatically if the relevant sales part has a defined supplier for purchase part.
- If the user changes the existing Global Address to another Global Address with different default sourcing
(Supply Site/External Supplier) for an existing Customer Order with customer order lines, the sourcing
information of the existing Customer Order lines will not change to the new sourcing. The new default sourcing
will only affect for new order lines.
