HI,

If Batch Management is active for the materials then use following process;
First create characteristic in CT04 for Batch Creation Date, under "Addnl data", enter Table Name MCH1 or MCHA (As per Batch Class 022 or 023) and Field ERSDA and save it.
Assign this characteristics in CL02 in your Batch Class.
CU70 - Create a Sort Rule and specify the Characteristic of Batch Creation Date and activate "Ascending" indicator.
Now assign the Sort Rule in MBC1 and keep Selection criteria as "O" for the Strategy type.
Now do batch determination in MIGO.

In mb1a, I'm getting an information msege as  "Strategy contains no selection specifications
Message no. LB007" .. pls guide me how to get it ??

Hi:
You must have configured batch determination procedure for inventory management as well a must have created sort rule too.
I understand you have assigned the relavant movement types to search procedure so that it would determine the batch for that movement.
Also,you must have to define the condition record for the batch in MBC1 for your condition type(Strategy type).
Now batch must be determined in the relavant transaction.
However,for correct batch determination,you must check the stock available,posting date etc as per the sort rule you have defined. Based on this parameters correct batch will be determined. Some time system determine wrong batch,for this you must check the acailability check rule also.
Hope this will help you out.
