Generate preparation lists

Use this function to generate and print preparation lists and/or pick tickets.

If you only generate preparation lists, you can use the Preparation plans function (FUNPREP2) to generate the pick tickets.

The order delivery type provides page breaks in the print.

If the APPSOH—Order signature management parameter (VEN chapter, APP group) is set for approval circuit management, sales orders that comply with the established signature rules need to be Totally signed to be included.

You need to use the Orders function (GESSOH) to unlock sales orders that are blocked if the SCDTUNL—Authorization to unlock order parameter (VEN chapter, AUZ group) is set.
