Hi frnd,
I dont knw the table but I have following Info for You:
u2022      Offsetting entry for stock posting (GBB)
Offsetting entries for stock postings are used in Inventory Management. They are dependent on the account grouping to which each movement type is assigned. The following account groupings are defined in the standard system:
u2022      AUA: for order settlement
u2022      AUF: for goods receipts for orders (without account assignment)
and for order settlement if AUA is not maintained
u2022      AUI: Subsequent adjustment of actual price from cost center directly
to material (with account assignment)
u2022      BSA: for initial entry of stock balances
u2022      INV: for expenditure / income from inventory differences
u2022      VAX: for goods issues for sales orders without
account assignment object (the account is not a cost element)
u2022      VAY: for goods issues for sales orders with
account assignment object (account is a cost element)
u2022      VB for consumption from stock of material provided to vendor
u2022      VBR: for internal goods issues (for example, for cost center)
u2022      VKA: for sales order account assignment
(for example, for individual purchase order)
u2022      VKP: for project account assignment (for example, for individual PO)
u2022      VNG: for scrapping / destruction
u2022      VQP: for sample withdrawals without account assignment
u2022      VQY: for sample withdrawals with account assignment
u2022      ZOB: for goods receipts without purchase orders (mvt type 501)
u2022      ZOF: for goods receipts without production orders
(mvt types 521 and 531)
You can also define your own account groupings. If you intend to post goods issues for cost centers (mvt type 201) and goods issues for orders (mvt type 261) to separate consumption accounts, you can assign the account grouping ZZZ to movement type 201 and account grouping YYY to movement type 261.
Caution
If you use goods receipts without a purchase order in your system (movement type 501), you have to check to which accounts the account groupings are assigned ZOB
If you expect invoices for the goods receipts, and these invoices can only be posted in Accounting, you can enter a clearing account (similar to a GR / IR clearing account though without open item management), which is cleared in Accounting when you post the vendor invoice.
Note that the goods movement is valuated with the valuation price of the material if no external amount has been entered.
As no account assignment has been entered in the standard system, the assigned account is not defined as a cost element. If you assign a cost element, you have to enter an account assignment via the field selection or maintain an automatic account assignment for the cost element
Hope it helps...........
