Raw material stock for Incoming incoming Inspections.

[former_member543521]

Hello All,

My requirement is like for incoming inspections of Raw materials X requested by PR and PO, then the materials are supplying by trucks with tons, once the material has entered into the gate, material handling team should weigh on this material and should confirm the correct qty of this into sap, then it should go to QI stock with GR that's ok.

Here my question is how to MAP this receiving material into SAP, when he is confirmed the qty physically, but if it is less than or more how can we proceed to capture this deviations into SAP.

Please share your thoughts it would be highly appreciated.

Generic rule is, you should inward only the actual received quantity. There could be differences between the invoice Qty mentioned by Vendor and actually received. That is something you need to take up with vendor. Once your counting is done you can do GR and the same will be posted to QI. May be somewhere in GR screen you can capture the invoice quantity to compare later.

I am not sure if this can suit here but have you looked at 2 step GR functionality in SAP that uses 103 and 105 movement? However there could be several other aspects involved from from Material's side. Hence if you can discuss with your MM team, conclusion would be faster.

From QM point of view, the stock will be posted to QI after 105 movement depending upon the configuration. Also there is an option to correct the quantities after inspection lot creation.  Explore Correct Actual Quantity tab in change inspection lot mode.

My suggestion - Discussion with MM team for further mapping!

Have the gate always confirm 1 ton and then note the actual weighed qty in the notes.

That will generate the Inspection lot for inspection.

After the materail handlers have a more detailed weight, have them do a second GR of the qty minus the 1 ton, (or whatever amount they see that is already attached to the inspection lot.)  It should then be added to the exisiting lot if your control inspection lot settings in the mtrl master are setup right.

Also, I hope your BUOM is grams or KG.  Conversion to g from large UOM's can get tricky.  But I hope you aren't actually expecting to inventory gram amounts in your samples to start with.

Hi Nallapu,

I am not very sure if this is quality related issue.

Well, as far as the process is concern, you can process ahead with physical Inventory reconciliation and subsequent posting (Ex; MI01/02/04/07) to stock and correct the stock for the inbound material.

Some generic steps are explained in the below attachment:

For more details, please can you work together with your MM/Purchasing team.

Thanks,
