Moving a part of the equipment to the stores stock for external repair

152 Views

Hi,

Can anyone please help me with this PM scenario. An equipment is under breakdown maintenance and the part of the equipment has to be sent out to the external agency for repair. The part has to be first sent to the outward stores and recorded in the stock. Then the part goes out of the premises thru material gate pass. After the repair of the part, it is brought back again to the stores and then handed over to the maintenance department. The stock in the store is changed accordingly. For instance, at first it is recorded as inward stock in the stores and later when it is issued to the maintenance department it is nullified.

My study: Will it be ok, if a goods transfer movement type using 261 is done to update the stock in the stores and use movement type 262 to reverse it. The costs incured to repair the part of the equipment is to be added to the maintenance order created for breakdown maintenance for the equipment. This cost will be recorded by way of external operations.

Please advise,

Thanks.
