Stock Transport Order in same plant between differnt storage locations

[skalra72]

We have a scenario as follows :

1> A new equipment is procured and it is stored in one of the warehouses valuated at say 120$ . One of the Service Tech needs this piece to service a store . Both the warehouse and Service technician Van exist in the same plant but we need to track the equipment and therefore STO is created to issue equipment from warehouse to Service Tech. In this case Qty from warehouse is moved to Service Tech at 0 amount .But when Service Tech is consuming that against Service incident , stock value goes to - 120 $ .

Is there any way or Config. to move stock from warehouse to Van with Value so that dollar value gets negated at warehouse st. loc. and we do.not see -ve Stock value .

Any help is appreciated ...

Nothing wrong - just misinterpretation

movements between storage locations do not create accounting documents, as valuation is at plant level, no value will change if you move goods within a plant, hence it shows with 0 value for 641 and 101 movement. This 0 does not mean that the good has no value, it just means that this movement has no value, as neither the quantity nor the value are changing at plant level (valuation level)

The consumption is of course with value, as it creates an accounting document and reduces the value from the plant stock value.

Since valuation is at plant level you get of course wrong results if you restrict the display of movement to a single storage location.
