What is the difference between the stock transfer between two plants belonging to same company code and those belonging to different company code?
Hi Vikas,
Inter-Company
You can transfer stock from one plant to another where the plants belong to different companies (i.e. have different company codes).
Since the plants belong to different company codes, the following points have to be considered from the sales point of view:
delivery: the procedure for delivering on the basis of a purchase order from another plant should be similar to delivering on the basis of a sales order from a customer
billing: the delivering plant will be charging the receiving plant for the material.
To deal with these points, the stock transfer can be carried out with a normal purchase order type NB.
The delivering plant can then create a delivery and an intercompany billing document on the basis of this purchase order.
Intra-Company
You can transfer stock from one plant to another where the plants belong to the same companie (i.e. under one company code).
And This is the step by step process of inter and intra STO process.
P.O Order types and Delivery Types
STO: - Stock Transfer Order – Intra Company
Stock Transfer between Two Plants with One Company code.
The Purchase Order Type is Used in this case is "UB".
And the Delivery Type Used here is "NL".
Goods Movement type: 641
Item Category in delivery is NLN
STPO: - Stock Transfer Purchase Order – Inter Company
Stock Transfer Purchase Orders between Two Plants with Two Different Company Codes.
The Purchase Order Type is Used in this case is "NB".
And the Delivery Type Used here is "NLCC".
Goods Movement type: 643
Item Category in delivery is NLC

Hi,
STO within a company code is known as Intra-Company STO and between two company codes is Inter-Company STO.

Hi,
You have not mentioned about the valuation level. If the valuation level is maintained at plant level then accounting document will be generated if you transfer stocks in the plants in the same company code & also in the case of different company codes.
But in the case of valuation at company code level accounting document will not be genertated in plant to plant transfer. But it will be generated in company to company transfer.
Thanks & Regards
