Removing Errors in Internet Sales Orders (SD-SLS)
In the Internet application component Online Store, customers can obtain quotes and enter orders over the Internet. They can choose to pay either by invoice, credit card or cash on delivery.If a quotation or order cannot be created because certain master data or Customizing settings are missing or not properly maintained, the transaction is cancelled and an error message is displayed in the customer’s browser.This workflow enables the relevant associates to be informed automatically about the error so that they can be corrected as quickly as possible.
Process Flow
The event triggering the workflow is generated automatically when an error occurs in the entry of a sales order or quotation in an Online Store.A work item containing information about the errors that occurred and all the details required to correct the error is sent to the inbox of the sales associates responsible for the Online Store.
Technical Implementation (SD-SLS)
Object Types Used
Object technology is used to create the interface between the R/3 functions and the workflow system. The information given below is of a technical nature and is not necessary for an initial overview.
Standard Tasks
The standard tasks provided by SAP as single steps describe the basic business activities from an organizational point of view. A single-step task relates to a single object method (= technical link to R/3 functionality), and is linked to the agents possible from an organizational point of view.
Workflow Template
The actual operational procedure is implemented as a workflow template. You can find this workflow template in your R/3 system.
Object: Sales Order (SD-SLS)
Definition
The sales order business object (object type BUS2032) is a request from a customer to a company asking for a specific quantity of materials to be delivered, or services to be rendered, on a given date.A sales order is sent to a sales area, and this sales area is then responsible for fulfilling the contract.
Use
It is also possible to simulate a sales order. In this process, prices are determined, taking account of customer-specific conditions, and current delivery data is determined for a sales order, but the sales order itself is not created. A simulated sales order is referred to as a quotation in this case (not to be confused with the customer quotation business object, object type BUS2031).
Location in object repository: Sales and distribution _ Sales _ Customer quotation
