GI from Vendor consignment

[former_member221091]

Folks,

Trying to do a vendor consignment goods issue for a STPO.

I keep on getting the following message in VL02N

boldDeficit of SL Unrestricted-use <>qty<> EA : Mat_# Plant_# Sloc_#bold

I have maintained

- Group, rule and assigned them for the plant A (from which material is to be moved to plant B.)

- Assigned the delivery rule The item type 'NLN'

- Assiged the rule to movement type 641

- Applied the stock determination group in Material (Plant/Storage data)

Anything I missed?

Note that the SPTO was created for 10

while stock avaialable was

1 - unrestricted stock

10- Vendor consignment stock

Did the outbound delivery (VL10D) , but unable to post GI (VL02N)

Kindly let me know your thoughts.

Kumar,

I have not completed that. Once I resolve it, I will post it.

I would also be interested in this enhancement. We are implementing Consignment stock soon. I expected that the system would first issue from the company owned stock, then start issuing from the Vendor stock. In the same action, it would simulate the goods movement from Vendor Stock to company owned stock which would then require settlement periodically with the Vendor.

Thanks

Thanks Kumar and Sridhar,

The only way to have this worked is by means of an enhancement.

Hi Sameer,

This functionality is very much specific to IS-Retail.

Please check the following link.

http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/en/c6/af3c415e5dde2be10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm

As far as MFG is concerned, Vendor consignment stock has to be brought to your own stock and it will create create the Vendor liablity.

In IS-Retail only you can transfer the Vendor consignment goods to another store without creating

Vendor liablity.

But still if you want to post ,you may please post using 301 K in MB1B

Also try posting using 351 (MM route)

Regards

I did have the same thought earlier.

Went through the note 13006, but was not sure if it applied to ECC 6.0 .

So what you are saying is Vendor consignment cannot be transferred from one plant to another within std. SAP

Any idea/thoughts in that case, on how it could be customized?

Thanks.

You can not,First convert to own stock then issue the goods.

[former_member221091]

So how can it be automatically be set up for the goods to be moved from vendor consignment to unrestricted stock and hence the GI is completed ?

[former_member182609]

This is can not be automatic always.when ever you required material then you can convert that much stock to unrecstcted stock.

[former_member221091]

I guess my post confused.

What I meant is that

Qty was one (1) in unrestricted stock

In addition for that plant, there were 35 units in the vendor consignment stock category.

[former_member182609]

You can not issue consignment stocks directly (vendor consignment stock category.).Consignment stock is not your own stock ,its vendor own stock.

First you need to convert consignment stock to your own stock,then you can issue the same.

For converting consignment to your own stock mvt 411K &transaction MB1B.

Sridhar,

I did check in VL02N too.

Repeating the stock data again

The quantity to be transferred - 10

Stock availability at supplying plant storage location

Unrestricted 1

Vendor consignment 35

Query is that even though vendor consignment has stock available, why the PGI is not completing.

[former_member182609]

while stock avaialable was

1 - unrestricted stock

10- Vendor consignment stock

I think in your delivery system picked unrestricted storage(1) location.Due to this reason system is giving error.

For picking 10- Vendor consignment stock storage location in delivery ,You need to maintain entry in this path.

SPRO>Logistics Execution>Shipping>Picking>Determine Picking Location-->Assign Picking Locations

[former_member182609]

The reason could be there is no stock in issue storage location for the plant.

Check in VL02N picking tab which storage location is assigned for the plant for issuing the materials.

Check that storage location is sufficient stock is there or not.
