Returnable package material to ESA to Customer

[former_member183783]

Hi,

I have a question about the 'returnable package material' process..Not quite understand below 3 separated steps ..The scenario is to deliver the material to ESA and from ESA to customer..

Step1: Goods issue from normal stock to special stock to External service agent(use which movement type ?)

Step2: why the arrow is back and which movement type use?

Step3:which movement type use?

Description of this chart:

*Returnable packaging is posted as special stock when delivered to the external service agent.

*On receipt of delivery note from external service agent and posting of goods issue to the customer, you use a two-step procedure to carry out the stock transfer of returnable packaging from consignment stock to returnable packaging stock at customer.

In my organisation the below mentioned process is followed.

Goods receipt for returnable packaging material is done with movement type 501-M

It is sent back to vendor with movement type 502-M.

The material is non valuated.

You need to carry these activities irrespective of your regular GRN. (additional GR activity)

A smart form/ challan is developed for the transportation purpose.

Hope this is useful.

Hi,Jurgen:

I think we are not talking about the same process..

yes we are talking about different scenarios, my answer were in regard to the procurement process: https://uacp2.hana.ondemand.com/doc/0065bd534f22b44ce10000000a174cb4/3.6/en-US/4662bd534f22b44ce1000...

Moderator message: I removed the "correct answer" from own answer as it is just a wrong conclusion that you draw.

Returnable packaging stock (special stock type M) is not equal to consignment stock, just see the F4 list for the special stock type field in MIGO or MMBE transaction.

Just find the documentation in help.sap.com as this process is well described there for years.
