Hi,

Pipeline material is material that flows directly into the production process from a pipe (for example, oil) or another kind of conduit (for example,electricity). Unlike consignment material, pipeline material does not have to be required via Purchasing. Pipeline stock is not stock that is physically available in your warehouse. Material from the pipeline is always available, and can be taken from the pipeline in any quantity at any time.

Following are some of prerequisite for pipe line material

Material type should be PIPE

The material is not procured or planned.

The material is not stored and no inventory management is carried

out for it.

The material is not inventoried.

The material can be withdrawn from the pipeline in any quantity

at any time.

Also check following thread from SDN only for more info

I think no PO for pipe line material. But you need to maintain purchase info record.

Hi,

1. You can create a material with PIPE material type or else you can use any material type but that should allow pipeline process.

2. You should have Inforecord for the material with valid conditions, price will pick only from inforecord.

3. If requied you can maintains ource list or else you can select during goods issue.

4. From the Inventory Management menu, choose Goods movement ® Goods issue.

Maintain the data on the initial screen. Choose Movement type ® Consumption ® To cost center (or To order, To network, All account assignments) ® From pipeline (Movement types : 201 P, 261 P, 281 P, or 291 P)

5. On the collective entry screen, enter the account assignment. Enter the items.

You do not have to enter the vendor as this will be found automatically by the system.

If more than one vendor is possible, a pop-up window appears with a list of pipeline vendors, from which you can select the vendor you require.

Post the goods movement.

Hello friend,

For PIPE line material there would be no PO.

We price this type of material based on the consumption

Best examples for this type are OIL, GAS, ELECTRICITY

Flow:

1. Create the Purchase info record in ME11

2. Create the GR for this in MIGO

3. Invoice verification in MIRO

4. Outgoing payment
