Kitting process with movement type 261

[Mcesar209]

hi people I dont now so much about this topic. But I have the follow situation. The process is based in preparation kits in wm. I can´t change the actual process. They create a Production order and they want to separete the material in wm and after they will confirm the production order (tpmov 261) . But how can control the stock in wm only with movement type 261. I did some testes creating movement type 261 , but in the end, I had some material in 914 . I believe the stock after goods issues must be equal zero. Is possible use only confirmation production order with movement type 261, generating a TR and TO to solve this without have diference in stock ?

Your story is totally confusing. WM can't do its own material management. WM is just a sub to MM and mainly needed to utilize the warehouse space and inner warehouse transports efficiently.

WM does not do any kitting. If a production order needs material (because of a goods issue with 261) then WM just moves the material from its storage bins to the interim storage type.

Jurgen thanks,

I did a test using mov type 261 to pick materials , but at the end I was left with the balance of the material in the interim st. type 914. It could be a problem ?

how could there be a balance? This can only be the case if you moved more than needed to 914, or you moved something else which did not match with the characteristics of the quant in 914.

As Jurgen requested you need to detail out what is your business requirement and what is the expection from SAP system

I did a test using mov type 261 to pick materials , - Movement type 261 is for consumption posting and not for pick

but at the end I was left with the balance of the material in the interim st. type 914 - if you don't have stock in 914 system will post negative stock but as per your statement, you left with stock, what is this negative,positive

Hi Marcos,

You can configure this using the path:

SPRO-Logistic Execution-Warehouse Management-Interfaces-Inventory Management-Define Movement Types-LE-WM Interface to Inventory Management

Put X under column "TR create Transf.Requirement". This will create TR automatically. And then further TO can be created manually or automatically based on business requirement.

Thanks Vipul.

My idea is to to this for movement type 261, but my concern is in the end, is not to lower the amount in the interim storage typ 914.
