ACCOUNTING DOCUMENT NOT GETTING GENERATED

[Former Member]

Dear all,

I am doing a stock transfer of 168 materials from one storage location to a different storage which is under the same plant in t-code MB1B with movement type 311. After the posting material document is getting created. When i tried to check the stock value (amount ) only for the 168 materials that i have transfered, i checked in the material document, but came to know that accounting document is not getting generated. Can i know why accounting document is not generated. i think it might be due to the valuation area is set as the plant level and since both the loc are under the same plant accounting document is not generated.

Is there any settings to automatically generate accounting document for this transaction ( I DON'T WANT TO CHANGE THE DEFINED CRIETERIA AS THE PLANT AS THE VALUATION AREA) or is there any other way in standard sap to check the stock value for the material document generated with movement type 311

Thanks.

Yes, your understanding is correct, accounting document will not be created when the stock tansfer happens with in the same valuation area and also it not possible to achieve this by any coniguration.

If you wat to find the value of material tansfered through 311, then you use t.code MB51 give the selection parameter as 311 in movement type.

You will get the list of material documents for this movement type and from there you can calculate the value.

You did stock transfer between storage location to storage location with in the same plant. I.e. storage locatons are belongs to same plant. But the stock valuation level is plant level. For your case no stock changed at plant level. so no accoutning document created.

Storage location level stock valuation is not maintained in standard SAP

Hi,

Stock Transfers From Storage Location to Storage Location within plant.

311-Stock transfer from storage Loc to Storage Loc.

A stock transfer from storage location to storage location takes place within a plant. It is usually posted without value, since the transferred material is managed in the same plant and therefore has the same valuation data as before. If the material is subject to split valuation, and the valuation type of the material changes due to the stock transfer, the system also creates an accounting document during the stock transfer.

Single Step Procedure

Two step Procedure

This stock transfer procedure reduces the corresponding stock type at the issuing storage location and increases the same stock type at the receiving storage location. At plant level, the stock level does not change, except that the stock is distributed differently among the storage locations in the plant. The system does not create an accounting document for the material document.

Since the stock transfer occurs within the plant, no accounting document is created in addition to the material document.

Hi,

The accounting document is not generated for transfer the stock from one storage location to another storage location for why means.

1.You are just transfering the stock from S.Loc to S.lo0c only

2.No valuationat S.loc levele

3.Valuation only on the CC level or plant level only.

This is the Std functionality not generate the accounty Document.

The lack of transfer of Accounting document might not only due to only functional issue, it is possible due to some technical issue also , that is those document would have been blocked while transfer due to server connectivity or some CR transport issue,

Anyhow those all will be hanging in tables , and those can be easily reprocessed to make the required transactions ,

Check with ABAP consultants...
