InterCompany Inventory

[Former Member]

We are unable to use the standard configuration for Intercompany Sales as our costing department states that this process is "selling cost of sales". They require that the inventory accounts of the receiving company are increased and decreased per sale. I have heard of "flash Title" that apparently does this .

Does anyone know of a configuration/ process that will post to the inventory account when doing an intercompany sale?

Hello Andy,

there is two ways to go

Either Inter company Sales or STO. Explore which one more relevant to you.

Thanks Hrusikesh,

we want to use the Company sales but it does not post to the inventory accounts of the "Plant selling the goods to the end customer". The requirement from our costing department is to see an up and down movement in the inventory levels

ie Company 2000, Plant 2000 sells to customer and drop ships from Company code 1000,Plant 1000.

We need to see inventory valuation changes in Plant 2000 as part of the delivery process

Andy,

You can achieve this STO without delivery, Basically its done for inventory management purpose,

For that you have to use STO where plant 2000 receives inventory from plant 1000 in SAP.

Hi Hrusikesh,

The issue is we are trying to reduce the number of processes in a drop ship process. Company 1000, plant 1000 creates a sales order to their customer with a delivering plant of 2000. When the delivery is PGI'd the inventory will be relieved from Plant 2000 and sent directly to the customer.

If we were to do the STO then we would relieve the inventory twice.

The requirement is that when the delivery is PGI'd the inventory is first relieved from 2000 posted to the inventory account of 1000 and then relieved from 1000 to the customer.( I have heard this being called "Flash Title") Presently we are creating the STO between 2000 and 1000 and then creating the Sales order and delivery in 1000. The goal is to remove the STO process (reducing the number of steps) as we are transferring across country and need to create deliveries and Commercials against the PO. (another reason is that although it is 2 companies it is the same employees doing the work in both company codes)
