Physical Inventory Recounts??? Guru needed

2279 Views

When we perform a physical inventory count in our distribution centre we create approximately 20 Physical Inventory Documents because we are limited to a maximum of 300 articles per PID. After entering the count and then analyzing the discrepancy in MI20, we will generate a recount document when the qty or value variance is unacceptable.

However, when we are generating our recounts, the system is creating a separate recount document for each original count document. This results in the necessity to manage an additional 20 recount documents when these should all be included in a single recount document to better manage the counting and entry process.

The consultant who was on our project said that this is an SAP bug and therefore should be logged with SAP, but we haven't received any direction yet. As you can imagine, by creating a new count ID for each original count the process for printing out count sheets, performing the physical count and entering the count data now becomes far more complex than is needed. Has anyone come up with a solution to manage this more effectively? Also, do you know if this is a bug in SAP or functioning as designed.

Thanks in advance for your help
