Material Type UNBW not being assigned to a production order

Former Member

We procure materials (Material Type HALB) and assign them to Production Orders; the receipts appear on the production orders only - this is the desired behavior (please refer to attached MD04 screenshot HALB).

We also procure materials (with material type UNBW) and assign them to production orders. Our issue is that the receipts show up on both the PO and the Prd Order (please refer to the attached MD04 screenshot UNBW).

We would like to see material type UNBW behave like HALB, Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I have also attached a copy of the Purchase Order whereby I show where I assign the material to the Prd Order. Please refer to attached screenshot Assignment.

Thank you in advance for your assistance

I think that is just the designed behavior for a UNBW material.

UNBW means, consume value while posting goods receipt but create stock.

You want actually consume stock with the receipt which contradicting the purpose of UNBW.

Any procurement of UNBW material has an account assignment. So it is not possible  during a GR to differentiate when you expect to consume only value and when you expect to consume quantity and value.

OSS note 95429 - MB01 for material type UNBW, third-party order says  as well that "A goods receipt of nonvaluated materials directly into the consumption is not supported."
