IO229: Batch for serial number SH_123 (AM) differs from document batch AL

[Former Member]

Dear All,

Please go thru the following scenario.

Manufacturing Plant 1000

Receiving Plant 2000

Material MAT_1 is managed with serial numbers in both the plants and serial number profile is assigned.

Material is having split valuation in both the plants and managed in Batches.

In Plant 1000 GR against production order is done. The serial number's master data gets updated with Master Batch = AM.

Delivery & PGI is done against Stock transport PO (from 1000 to 2000)

While doing GR at plant 2000, wrt outbound delivery, the above mentioned error appeares. (Message No IO229)

This is because the Batch or Valuation type in receiving plant is AL. But since Batch AM is associated with serial number system gives error.

How to avoid this error???

(Batch in serial number can be changed manually, but we do not want that solution)

Hi,

The field master batch in the serial number master data is a static field and is not changed dynamically while doing GR in receiving plant.

Change of batch is possible with material to material transfer movement type 309. (note 64044).

Alternatively, if the material is not in company's stock and if the serial number status allows change, you can manually change the master batch through iq02.

These are the only alternatives available.

Rgds,
