In the Supplier Managed Inventory (SMI) process within SAP Business Network Supply Chain Collaboration, configuring a document type for a replenishment order in the SAP system requires setting the parameterRO_DOC_TYPE (A). This parameter specifies the document type used for replenishment orders, ensuring that the system correctly processes and categorizes these documents within the SMI workflow.

The other parameters listed—AGGR_SMI_DOC_TYPE (B),PRO_SMI_DOC_TYPE (C), andCSC_SMI_PR_DOC_TYPE (D)—are not relevant for configuring the document type for replenishment orders in this context.

Therefore,RO_DOC_TYPE (A)is the required parameter for this configuration.

In the subcontracting process, the supplier sends aComponent Consumption Document (C)to the buyer. This document details the quantity of components consumed during production.

Purpose:

Helps reconcile supplied and consumed components.

Refer to SAP documentation:Component Consumption Process
