Goods return issue

[Former Member]

Dear Experts,

One of our existing client engineering relvant industry is using SAP B1 PL_18 & facing a problem in purchase module. Scenario is the goods received through grpo found defective on quality check and the same is returned to the vendor through goods return. When the returned goods comes back then there is no option avaliable in standard SAP to receive the returned goods from goods return form.

I s there any provision from goods return to receive the goods in standard SAP other than customization. If any one knows the solution or faced this kind of issue please share your knowledge.

Regards,

Krishnakumar

There is a bug (since 2005 version and still in 8.8 !) that in Goods Return you can not "Copy To" GRPO, it by mistake only shows A/P Credit Memo as the only available option.

However, in GRPO you are able to "Copy From" Goods Return. If you do it this way, the Goods Return will close and all balances are correct.

Hi Krishnakumar,

Check your version cause in standard SBO 8.8 you can copy Goods Return in GRPO easily. If you are not getting it then amendment of PO then GRPO is standard cycle. Or else make new PO and GRPO accordingly.

Mr.Sachin,

Thanks for you suggestion but still in 8.8 version there is no provision to re-open the grpo once the good return is passed i think u have not checked properly.

According to SAP PLC (Product Life Cycle) goods return is the last stage of purchase cycle there after there is no provision to re-open its corresponding Po or Grpo gets closed.

Hi,

Itu2019s very correct that goods return is the last document, We face the same scenario and to overcome that we done a workaround in case of returnable goods we create a warehouse and transfer the goods in that warehouse selecting the business partner. And once the material is received we again transfer to original warehouse in case of any charges created service invoice.

Thanks
