Stock transfer process (for plants) MTO Accounting classification M

[former_member1070156]

Dear all,

I am studying a transfer process for plants with purchase order using the accounting classification M (not collecting costs for Sales order) , so the step of post good issue results in the error M7146 - EKPO - SOBKZ = E; EKPO - UMSOK = _ ; EKPO - KZBWS < > _ EKPO - KZVBR < > E ( Note 305 582 ) not supported (check your entry) . Using the accounting classification “M” not generate this error. Can you tell me if it is correct not collect costs in the sales order?

Thanks

Hi Biju,

Thanks for your quick reply.

I checked the links and replys, but the question not solution. If both are used in Category Assignment MTO process. It is not clear validation of Note 305582, which checks EKPO-KZVBR <> E. Why this validation?

Thanks

Hi,

Account Assignment Category M is mainly used for scenario of Make to Stock (Ind. cust. w/o KD-CO) for no posting to consumption account.

Account Assignment Category E used for scenario of Make to Order ( Ind. cust. with KD-CO) where stock post to an expense account with GBB-VKA(can find in tcode:OBYC )

You can cross check in t.code: OME9 for Assignment Category M & E to find the difference!

Hi,

The term 'M' discussed in the note refers to valuation indicator (M- Valuation with reference to the special stock & A- Valuation without reference to the special stock ).

The problem cannot be solved by using this Valuation indicator M alone since the root cause defined is inappropriate consumption indicator used in the account assignment category.Collecting costs and revenue on the sale order is totally depend on the entry in the consumption posting field. Allowed entries are E & P.

Solutions:

If we want to enable goods movement takes place through the sale order stock then we must specify the valuation indicator 'M' (or) 'A 'depending upon our requirement and should use consumption indicator 'E' in the account assignment category.

If we want to enable goods movement takes place through the project stock then we must specify the valuation indicator 'M' and should use consumption indicator 'P' in the account assignment category.

For non-valuated stock the valuation indicator should be blank and use the consumption indicator 'E' (or) 'P' depending upon our requirement.

Regards,

Ignatius
