Third party via sales order

[Former Member]

Dear All,

I need your help regarding Third party scenario with sub contracting via sales order. I have searched many blogs and posts but not got proper reply.

Business requirement is to do subcontractor suppose to send finished goods stock directly to customer.

Steps we have followed:

1. Created sales order with internal order assignment(account assignment tab) through which PR gets generated in the background.

2. PO created with reference to PR with account assignment category as ' X' and item category as ' L'.

3. Transfer material to vendor via 541 - ME2O.

4. MIGO done. But the finish material stock got consumed against internal order.

How can we do outbound delivery as there is no stock in storage location? How to transfer finish goods directly to customer?

As we have used account assignment ' X' in PO because of which stock gets directly consumed. Is there any way to bring stock in storage location?

Thanks,

Priti.

I think if you use any account assignment category with consumption posting V, it will get consumed in the order with the order as the cost object and the order augmented with the cost.

probably you should test with M. You may need to do some settings for that, following the error messages you get.

I have never worked with sale order costing, so cant give you any specific inputs.

Why are you using internal order as account assignment

Isn't it normally E or M as account assignment from Sale order depending on whether sale order is cost collector

pl check the below link on account assignment category in product costing
