Inventory Item

[farrukhrauf-1]

I am using SAP B1. If I have single item in different divisions of my company, and I want to open them with different item codes I need to know about two things:

1) How can I transfer between two divisions? I mean is there a way to transfer item from One Item Code to another Item Code?

2) How can I see the total inventory of that item in my company? I couldn't find any Parent Item concept in this case?

I have another question that is if I do not want to use virtual locations within a single location (Suppose I have 2 divisions A1 and B1 and in my location L I have kept two virtual ones LA and LB for both divisions). Can I use the concept of BIN rather than using virtual warehouses in SAP B1? Someone said it would affect my MRP later on....

Hi,

1. B1 don't have the function to transfer from one Item to another Item.

2. In your case, it is better to use one Item master data and combine with virtual warehouse/bin location for two divisions.

• If you choose bin location, you cannot exclude/include a bin location from/to MRP scenarios
• If you choose warehouse, MRP support to exclude/include a warehouse from/to planning scenarios

Hope this helps,
