[Ask] What Happened when doing Goods Issue for Production

[Former Member]

Hi All.

Just curious

I tried to find the answer, but nothing satisfy me.

I'm still confused what happened about my stock when I do Goods issue for Production

I Implemented Warehouse management, as far as I know Goods Issue for production is Inventory management.

As far as I know, when we do inventory management transaction, SAP will have a negative quant in IM interm bin and there will be transfer order from real bin that will be moved into IM interm bin.

so stock in interm bin becomes zero and stock in real bin will reduce as much as oved quantity.

Ref:

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_470/helpdata/en/c6/f840ba4afa11d182b90000e829fbfe/content.htm

But when I do goods issue for production, why I don't see transfer order that move from real bin into interm bin?

stock just disappear from WM area.

I need to know why and the customizing about this.

Thanks.

If you are using WM-PP interface, the components are transfered (in WM) to an interim storage type/bin before GI posting (storage type 100 in standard SAP).

Since the components are already in the interim storage type/bin (which is an interface storage type to MM-IM), the GI will consume them directly.

W/o WM-PP interface the WM transfer would follow the MM-IM posting (GI).

Hi Vicky,

The posting is indeed IM, but the picking should take place through WM.

Create a delivery based on the production order with t-code MB1A (option: to order, or mvt 261) and pick that delivery and perform PGI based on that delivery.

You can also create a delivery directly upon release of the production order, using the WM-PP interface. Check OMK0 for that.
