Programme SAP RJVCLFBL_VDAT - IS-M: Generate Issue Mixes (by Shipping Date)

Description

Program RJVCLFBL_VDAT generates issue, insert and ad mixes selected byshipping date.
Two programs are available for generating issue mixes:

  • RJVCLFBL: Generate Issue Mixes (selected by publication date)

  • RJVCLFBL_VDAT: Generate Issue Mixes (selected by shipping date)

  • This program identifies issues that match the selection criteria forwhich issue mixes have not yet been generated in full. The issue mixesare then completed for these issues by executing program RJVCLFBL.
    Issue (insert and ad) mixes are always generated for a whole issue.This is generally done by program RJVCLFBL. Selection takes place bypublication date.
    Issue mixes are usually generated before shipping actually takes placeto allow you to maintain bundling rules for the issue mixes. (Forfurther information, see the documentation on program RJVCLFBL.)
    In exceptional cases, deliveries that do not yet have mixes or are notassigned issue mixes may come into being after the issue mixes havebeen generated and before shipping takes place.
    To ensure that these deliveries also have issue mixes, you can includethis report in the shipping chain with the appropriate selection(selection by shipping date).
    Report RJVCLFBL_VDAT selects all deliveries (by shipping date as wellas other selection options) for which no issue mix has yet beengenerated.
    The function 'Generate issue mix' is executed for all issues in thesedeliveries (for which the issue mixes have not yet been generatedfully).
    (Recommendation: Once mixes have been generated, you should select theparameter 'Do not generate new mixes' when running the program. Forfurther information, see the report documentation for RJVCLFBL.)

    Selection criteria:
    Report RJVCLFBL_VDAT starts report RJVCLFBL for the publication dates(and according to the further selection criteria) for which the issuemixes are still to be completed.
