PGI Err

[Former Member]

Dear Friends,

We've configured new Enterprise Structure (nothing copied). In PGI we're getting following err:

*Valuated stock becomes negative: * -> see long text

Diagnosis*

When a goods movement or an incoming invoice is entered, the system simulates the update of the valuation data in the material master record. The current simulation indicates that this posting would lead to a negative stock quantity (or a negative sales value) although negative stocks are not allowed for this material.

Procedure

You cannot post this item. Therefore, terminate current processing. Display the material master record (accounting data). Check the price, stock value & stock quantity (also for the previous month, if required).

Proceed

Display the material documents & the accounting documents for the material & check whether the stock quantity is realistic.

o Material documents

o Accounting documents

If the stock value does not correspond to the stock quantity, data inconsistencies may exist.

*I've 2 issues:

1. What is the meaning of this err & how to solve it?

2. What does the statement* & check whether the stock quantity is realistic means?

Please help.

Dear Pathik Pandya,

Thanx 4 ur query.

The stock of this product= 200,000

PGI Qty= 20

I'd like to add that Mat Typ is FERT & it is a normal sale scenario. One of my issue was "What's the meaning of this err?" Can you explain?

Siddhant,

Meaning is bit clear, the quantity that you are trying to post is either too high which is leading to a negative stock situation in plant or by mistake the quantity entered is errorneous +/- values.

If you are getting this msg even when such an inconsistency does not exist, then as mentioned in the thread above contact SAP for resolution.

Regards,

PATHIK
