Stock type in Purchase Order

[former_member208199]

Hi Experts,

I have requirement from client that they want to change the stock type from Quality to Unrestricted and vice versa during Purchase order creation based on business need. I am not able to see the such option during purchase order creation. But the same ( Stock type) can bee seen in Change mode of Purchase Order ME22N.

Appreciate your help if you could help us to know the setting from which Stock Type can be displayed and will allow us to change during PO creation.

Thank you

Hi,

   If the QM inspection set up is active for the material, you may not be able to change the stock type in PO. In your case, since its not showing / not allowed to change in ME21N, but its allowing to change in ME22N, please check the following:

• Any transaction variant exists in SHD0 for ME21N, which can hide / display the field.
• Whether there is any development exists, which is altering the standard behavior.

    Revert back with the findings.

Regards,

Hi Rajender,

Stock type is missing in PO Creation becoz under Screen variant the Stock type might be made as Invisible.

You can check in SHDO transaction

In Transaction SHDO go to Screen Variant tab

F4 option to search the screen find 1313 and select

check field stock type.

Thanks

Hi Rajendar,

If QM is active and you maintained QM data for the material than you cannot restrict to the material whether it goes for Stokc in Quality or Unrestricted use of stock.

In Case you are not using QM Module for your client, than as per sudhakar there is option available in Purchase order screen in delivery tab.As well as there is option also available while posting the Goods Receipt - MIGO for the material, you can also make changes while posting the GR.

Thanks & regards,

Thanks Ankur,

I agree with you.

Yesterday we tested changing the Stock types in PO and MIGO. As you said Material master Inspection setup will have the precedence over changes made in PO and MIGO for Stock Type

Thank you.

Hi Prasoon,

Thanks for your quick response and the solution you have provided is absolutely perfect.

As you suggested we have checked the Transaction SHDO and found there is Transaction variant was there for ME21N, in which checked the Stock type to keep Invisible shown in below screen shot.

Unchecked the Indicator for Stock type in Transaction variant resulted appearing the same during PO creation.

Now, Stock type can be displayed during Purchase order creation.

Thank you all for the support.
