Batch search from Subcontractor Stock

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I am working on subcontracting in my Org. I have transferred the requisite component materials against a Subcontracting Purchase Order to a particular Vendor (Using Movement type 541). Now in my org we handle all materials in Batches. Now when I try to do a GR for the same PO the system tries to consume the components using movement type 543- against special stock "O". The system doesn't automatically search for the Batch that has to be consumed and when I try to use "*" to search for the batch it throws an error

*"The storage location/batch function * is not defined here"*.

I am trying to use Enjoy Transaction MB01 to do our GR.This is despite that when I am issuing the components the system copies the "Issuing Batch" to the "Receiving Batch" automatically.

Regards,

First search in MBLB report there you will know which batch material is gone to which vendor batch wise. Then you will categories this .

Hi Harman,

Well there are just too many line items in each GR to manually copy and paste from MBLB.

I am using IS-AFS. The system is automatically populating the batch for AFS Materials. The problem that I have mentioned above is only for Standard Materials.

Anyone with a solution

Hi,

The only solution is you have to give the corresponding Batch number for all the components in the Subcontracting Purchase order itself,Then while doing GR against Subcontracting PO, system will automatically display those batches, else you have to search for the batches at vendor end and then you have to enter those batches.

If you are using other than transaction MIGO to post GR, then the batch determination can be trigged via corrections for OSS note 546349.Refer the same for more information.
