Subcon Process

[Former Member]

Dear All,

I want to send the machine part to subcontractor for inspection purpose on free of cost basis. Though this part is of machine hence there is no stock available in stores.

There r lot of parts are like this so it is not useful to create 1 dummy material for this & built up the dummy stock of this dummy material & send this material out side. Also the assesable value is vary from part to part so 1 material no. is not a good solution.

Please let me know any other method.

Thanks,

Hi,

In your bussiness.... material already created, send the material with 541 MT to vendor for repair and once repaired get back material with 542 MT as you do not have service charge. Or follow the process

Process Flow to send the part of machinery for Repair : -

1. MM01 - Create Material Master for every Spare Part / Machinery to be sent to Vendor for Repair as Non-Valuated (Material Type "UNBW") (Do not extend Accounting and Costing views since you don't require postings of Stock value and consumption values, you only want to track the Service/Repair Charges)

2. MIGO - Goods Receipt > Others (Receive the quantities of these materials using Movement Type 501 / 511)

3. ME21N - Create Subcontracting PO (Here Main Material and Component will be same material)

4. MB1B - Transfer Posting w.r.t. Subcon PO (Mvmt Type - 541, Spare Part stock will get posted to Vendor Stock)

5. MB90 - Take Print out of this Material Doc as Returnable Gate Pass (U need to configure Message Determination of Inventory Mgmt)

6. MIGO - GR against Subcon PO (101 - Receive Spare Part, 543 O - Consumption of Spare Part form Vendor Stock)

you can use movement type 202 to increase the stock of the material removed from a machine and send it for subcontracting. on receipt, you can issue the same to the respective cost center.

Dear Anand,

That part doesn't have SAP material no....it was procured only on description & cost center.

[Former Member]

you can create one generic material with description "machine part received" as transact it against the respectuve cost center for doing 202 and 201. Ideally any machine part has to be numbered and valuated seperately as new, damaged and refurbished as per SAP best practices to account correctly for stock and valaution data as per each machine part.

Hi,

As of all the machine parts which you had procured already had been booked to respective cost center .If you want to send the machine parts for quality check you can just develop a gate pass with your abper so that the material which your sending will be under returnable gate pass and alsoa feild for how much the parts cost also.
