Stock Transfer Scenario

[former_member1245242]

Hi Experts

Need your possible solutions for the below requirement:-

There are 23 plants, when the Customer returns the products to any plant, credit note will be created as std & stock will be received in Quality Sloc & stock status will be Q.

Now we want to "Move the Returned products which is in Q stock wrt all Credit notes to Central warehouse" (which is also a plant in sap) automatically at once on any particular date or once in month.

Basically User wants to reference Credit Notes & trigger Auto STO to move the stock to central warehouse.

If it is development, how do we acheive this.

Let me know if you need more details on this. Appreciate your possible solutions to this.

Thanks

Hi there

Seems you want to send the material from QI stock of Plant A to QI stock of Plant B through STO,, which is not possible in SAP, As only from unrestricted use only we can transfer the material through STO,,

You can send the material from Unrestricted stock and at the time of receipt it can be received into QI stock that you can mention in STO itself,,

After you receive the credit note update the details in Z table,, create the program by ref the credit note and create the STO for the material, (before that the material has to be transferred from QI to unrestricted stock(321), Create the Deliverty and do the PGI also,, That you can do it as BG job(automated process) that you can discuss with the ABAPer,,

Hope it helps

Thanks

You can create a Module Pool input screen, in which you can enter the credit notes and other selection criteria, and

you can Use the BAPI BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE , to post the plant-plant movement with 1 step transfre 301 mov type.

These things will be done by ABAPER, you just give him inputs regarding the Functionality and the table fields and Logic .

Normally as functional guys, we write an FS (Functional Spec) describing the detail Business requirement, and the Logic flow with the Table names (wherever necesary) ,

Its not necessary you need Module pool, you can also ask for a report transaction which based on selection criteria gives an -ALV output listing all the Credit notes with other details , , and in the Output Menu you give a Button to "Post goods movement" .

Just first confirm the exact business requirements and the SAP goods movement flow ( i.e in which stock type they want the material in receiving plant, is WM activ ein any of the Plant-Sloc combination , do they want to load freight , if freight is reqd then you will have to go for STO process , also you probably wont be able to transfer from Q stock )

Like you can give him the Screen layout which you want, which all selection fields (eg credit notes etc) and on executing the report the logic to link the credit note numbers to the Material From-To plants etc . and also if you want a button to "Post" the gods movement after running the transaction. On "Post" he should call the BAPI .

Hi Ravi

Materiala are in Q stock in Issuing plants & in Receiving Plant/Wraehouse they want to receive directly to Unrestricted stock. WM is Active in both Issuing Plants & receiving Central warhouse. And they dont want to capture/load any Freight.

You will first have to transfer stock from the "Q" to unrestricted in the supplying plant (this can be done by same BAPI) .

Then you can use 301 movement (1 step ) to transfer materials between plants .

You'll have to figure out how to handle the WM PCN, TR and TO which will be created as a part of the above movements though. Try and see if yu can automate TO creation for 301 mov type or something like that... OR use Non-WM slocs for such automatic goods movements .
