Availability check for Stock Transport Order using Delivery Documents

[Former Member]

Hi Friends,

We have the following scenario -

The materials are received in the central plant. Then these are transferred to Local Plants using Stock Transport Orders from Central Plant to Local Plant. The Stock Transport Requisitions are generated in the Local plant through MRP. These are then converted to STO's. STO's are processed using the delivery document (VL10D) followed by Picking, Transfer Order, Confirmation and GI.

We have the following problem

Whenever the STO's are created (mentioning central plant as the supplying plant) it's doing some availability check. Based on this if the system finds that there are sufficient Stock in the Central store it is confirming that quantity against that STO. This can be viewed in the main plant using the Back Order Processing Transaction (CO06). But if there are some STO's with delivery dates 3 months in future these will also be confirmed. Thus these STO's will hold up a large quantity of material. In the mean time if there are some STO's created with a delivery date in the next week, these STO's may not have sufficient materials for confirmation. Thus during the delivery creation it will only propose that confirmation quantity (T Code- CO06) for picking. Even though there are sufficient material stock hold up by the other STO's scheduled 3 months later.

If we have to chage the confirmation quantity, we have to do it in CO06 transaction.

Our requirement is - How to remove that blocking due to confirmation ? (This is created once the Stock Transport Requisition or Orders are created)

Pls help me on this asap.

Thanks and warm regards

Hi Friends,

I have got the earlier one.

But my requirement has changed a bit.

I want the system to look at all the STO's which are pending for delivery. System should only confirm those STO whose delivery dates are lying two weeks in future. Not beyond that. Thus all the STO's which are lying 3 months future will not be confirmed and thus will not block any material quantity.

Is there any user exit I can use for this?

Can you help me on this?

Thanks

Hi Prasad,

Thanks for your reply.

If you could have gone through my earlier post then you would have found out that my new requirement is completely opposite from my earlier requirement. Instead of removing the commitment functionality I have requested for commitment within a specific time period. This is not possible in standard I suppose.

That's why I have asked for help on User Exit or Enhancement.

Thus the first solution no longer valid for me.

Hope you have got it.

In any case if you want to remove the commitment, just go to OPJJ and check which one you want to remove.

Thanks
