To have your stock of the packing material updated your must force 'delivery item generation' for your packing material. There are two requirements for del.item generation:

1. there is a plant in your HU (you can control this in your packing material type in transaction VHAR; set plant determination either to A or B).

2. there is an item category in your HU (you can control this in transaction 0184; create the following entry: EL / VERP / PACK / / ELP. If you now create an inbound delivery type EL and your packing material has item category group VERP the system will assign item category ELP to your HU.

If both requirements are met the system will generate an item in your inbound delivery after packing.

Then make sure that the item category of the HU (ELP for example) has movement type 501 assigned to it in transaction 0VLP.

If you then post the GR for your inbound delivery, the packing material will be posted on stock.

Regards, Dick.
