  • Key Concepts: 
    Inbound delivery notification is a process in SAP SCM-EWM-DLP Delivery Processing that allows a company to receive goods from a vendor and confirm the receipt of those goods. The notification is sent to the vendor, who then sends an acknowledgement back to the company. This process helps ensure that the goods are received in a timely manner and that the company is aware of any discrepancies between what was ordered and what was received. 
    
    How to use it: 
    In order to use inbound delivery notification, the company must first create an inbound delivery document in SAP. This document will contain all of the necessary information about the goods being received, such as quantity, description, and expected delivery date. Once this document is created, it can be sent to the vendor via email or other electronic means. The vendor will then send an acknowledgement back to the company confirming receipt of the goods.
