No accounting document for 541 mat document

[Former Member]

HI,

I am doing subcontracting for that, i am using 541 mvt type but for that document no accounting document is generated, my problem is that whether accounting document should be generate or not ,if it is to be generate then in my case it is not generating.

THKS.

no accounting doc would be generated since you are not changing the owner ship of material to vendor.It is still part of your plant inventory.

Movement type 541 is not a goods issue. This movement type is a

transfer posting from unrestricted stock to vendor stock. The material

still belongs to you; you still own the material. A material document

is created for movement type 541 but there is no accounting document. The system is working as designed. When you do the goods receipt of the ordered material, the system

then posts a movement type 101 for the G/R and a movement type 543 for

the goods issue. This material document shows in the order history.

stock provided to vendor ( through movement type 541) is still part of your plant inventory & available for MRP as well.So there is no question of accounting doc.

accounting doc would be generated once you do GR of subcontracting material.The consumption of there componentes would happen so at that time accounting docs would be generated
