Proof of delivery (POD) is an instrument involved in
business processes in which an invoice is issued only after
the customer has confirmed the delivery's arrival. In
addition to the proof of delivery itself, you can also
record the POD date, POD time.
Proof of delivery is customer specific based on the
business decision we can activate POD to all customers or
selected customers.
We have to activate all Delivery item caterogries for POD
in the Configuration.
Since POD is Customer specific we need to tick the POD
indicator in Customer Master shipping screen which is a
Masterdata not an config.

If after activation if user try to do billing after PGI
system will trigger error log as POD not released
Hence we need to use transaction VLPOD enter date ant time
and release POD by saving to execute billing process in SAP.
We can also set number of days span given for customer to
confirm POD or automatically system will confirma the
same.

Proof of delivery is the confirmation, sent by the customer upon goods reciept.
Company will raise the billing document based on that confirmation. They
normally use an intermediate document with application link enabling. On the
whole, It is done by an abaper. Please correct me if i am wrong.

In general business process with reference to sales order delivery
can be carryout with reference to delivery. The billing can be carried out between delivery and billing. The
business can wait for acknowledgement form Ship – to – party whether the party has physically received goods. So
as to map this business process we can check relevant for POD option in the Ship – to – party customer master.
Then the system can wait for sometime (that is specified POD time frame field). The system waits up to that period
for receiving POD and blocks billing document until that period. Once the POD has been received by the business,
then system allows to raising the billing document.
If the business does not receive the POD that has been specified in the POD time frame then system assumes that goods has been received by the Ship – to – party physically and allows billing document processing. This is been configured in customer master shipping tab- check box relevant for POD check box relevant for POD, we need to maintain tick mark.
