Standard movement to transfer blocked batches to a different plant/center

I am trying to transfer blocked batches to a different plant/center where it is (from 2000 to 3000). Is there any standard movement which allows to move blocked batches to another plant/center without unblocking them?
Thank you in advance.

Prerequisites
For materials handled in batches, you can carry out stock transfers from plant to plant and from storage location to storage location as well as transfer postings from material to material.
An issuing batch and a receiving batch are always involved in a stock transfer or transfer posting of a batch material. The issuing batch number is copied as the receiving batch number (except in the case of a plant-to-plant stock transfer in two steps). The batch number can, however, still be changed.
Stock Transfers in Two Steps
In a stock transfer from plant to plant using the two-step procedure, you enter only the receiving plant for the removal from storage. The stock in transfer is managed only at plant level in the receiving plant, independent of storage location and batches. You must enter the receiving storage location and the receiving batch when you post the placement into storage.
In a stock transfer from storage location to storage location using the two-step procedure, the receiving storage location and the receiving batch are already determined during the removal from storage.
After posting the removal from storage, the quantity is in stock in transfer. Stock in transfer is managed at plant level, as well as at storage-location level and batch level. As a consequence, you must enter the same receiving batch for the placement into storage. If you do not know the batch, enter * in the Batch field. The batch selection list is displayed. This list displays the stock in transfer for the batches in the Stock column.
Procedure
You can post a transfer from batch to batch by entering a different batch for a stock transfer using the one-step procedure. To do this, proceed as follows:
From the Inventory Management menu, select Goods movement ® Transfer posting.
Maintain the data on the initial screen. Choose one of the following movement types:
u2013 Movement type ® Transfer posting ® Plant to plant ® Remove from storage/place in storage
u2013 Movement type ® Transfer posting ® Stor. loc. to stor. loc. ® Unrestr. to unrestr.
u2013 Movement type ® Transfer posting ® Material to material
To maintain the items directly on the item detail screen instead of on the collective entry screen, select Edit ® New item.
On the detail screen, you can enter an issuing and a receiving batch.
Post the document.
In a transfer posting to a new batch, batch data (such as shelf life expiration date or vendor) is copied to the new batch. Classification data is copied as well.
In a transfer posting to an already existing batch, the data of the existing batch is retained.
Transfer Postings From Batch to Batch, With Status Management
In a transfer posting to a new batch, the new batch is given the status unrestricted use (even if the issuing batch has the status restricted use), unless the restricted-use status has been predefined by Quality Management.

Transaction Notification for Blocking Batch

Dear Experts,
I am facing a critical situation. My Client wants to Block the material movement if it is not inspected through Quality Personal. I have already Locked batches through General Settings > Inventory > Batch Status . But it only blocks the batches for Goods Issue and Receipts Transactions. It is not working in case of Inventory transfers.
I have created UDF on GRPO called U_InspStatus where by default value is Pending once the Quality personal changes the UDF value to Completed then only the batch should be able to move through Inventory Transfer.
Can anyone help me in creating Transaction Notification on Inventory Transfer Document which can block batches if there status is pending ?
Waiting for your replies.
Regards,
RK

Hi Naga,
Please find below mentioned answer to your queries -
1. Inventory transfer done by means of posting inventory transfer document? - Yes
2. Inventory transfer as applicable to customer not vendor. How do you select vendor in inventory transfer document? - Not selecting the customer in Inventory Transfer document not required I am moving material from one warehouse to another.
3. How did you update inspection status in inventory transfer document - Inspection status is updated in Quality Add on and not in Inventory Transfer. But if I am transferring material from one warehouse to another without Inspection then it should block the batch whose Inspection status is pending.

Block batch change while movement type 311

Hello all,
Is there a simple way to block this behavior:
User accidentally post material from batch A to batch B while doing MIGO 311, which messes up traceability in reporting.
I am aware of BADI rule possibility but want to explore simpler (more natural) methods first.
And no, this should not be done at any circumstances in our bussines enviroment.
Thanks in advance,
Hrvoje

Dear
Use a T'code OMBW ,select movment type 311-Click detais-Click transfer posting-click to details-Click to suppress-
After that reciving batch field do not show.

Block Batch updates from QM

Hi Guru's,
I have a question regarding batch updates through QM (inspection lots).
Is it possible to block a batch for getting updates from QM? Meaning that we can take UD, but that the results are not copied to the batch anymore. The solution should also make sure that we still can do a few logistical movement (like transfer postings, goods issue, ...)
Maybe anybody experience with a custom-build solution?

Sounds like you don't get along with your QM staff?
The whole point of inspection lots and QM status controls is to ensure quality if you want to circumvent Quality control measures you can always let them disposition the batch and move it to blocked status, then scrap the blocked stock (move into 999 storage type and clear via LI21) and then pull the inv. back out of 999 in unresricted status/clear.
If you are not fighting with your QC staff then perhaps you should stop creating inspection lots to begin with.
Just seems strange to want to do this.

Batch status at recurring insp lot creation

We have setu recurring insp 09 for few materials. We use "insp stock at creation" option. So system work as expected and create lot and put stock in QI, but still batch status remain "unrestricted". Our req is at the time of lot creation it self system should set batch status as "restricted". How to setup it?
When system setup "restricted" status for recurring batch? Help appreciated.

check option
Recurring Inspection: Block Batch at Lot Creation
Specifies, that a batch is blocked, when the inspection lot is created, if the inspection date lies within the opening period.
Use
If you choose this option, batches are blocked, if their next inspection date lies within the opening period:
If the batch status management is active in the corresponding plant, the batch status is changed to "restricted".
If the batch status management is not active in the corresponding plant, the batch stocks are transferred to the blocked stock.
If the batch status has changed or a transfer posting takes place, a new inspection lot is created for each storage location.
If a relevant inspection lot already exists and the next inspection date has already been reached, the change of the batch status or the transfer posting also takes place

Creat 'recurring inspection' in Deadline monitoring of Batches

Hi guys,
Conditions:
(1) Today is '11.24.2011''.
(2) MSC3N
- 'Shelf Life Exp. Date' is '11.30.2011' and 'Next Inspection' is '12.10.2011'.
(3) QA07
- 'Initial run in days' is '30' and Check radiobutton at 'To insp.stock at lot creation' in the 'Additional goods movement at time of recurring inspection' box.
'Initial run in days' is '00' and Check 'Block batch' in the 'Batch status change when expiration date is reached' box.
i think, in order for the 'Shelf Life Exp. Date' to arrive first, no recurring inspection lot created??
But, when i am running QA07, the system automatically creates 'recurring inspection'.
The inspection lot not to make automatically, it will be able to setting??

Dear,
The function for recurring inspections allows you to monitor the quality of batches contained in the warehouse stock.
For this purpose, an inspection date is calculated (in addition to the expiration date) when a batch is received in a goods receipt shipment
To be able to determine the inspection date, you must enter an inspection interval when you maintain the QM data in the material master record. The inspection interval defines the time period that must expire before the next recurring inspection must be carried out.
A program that is run periodically (batch job) monitors the batch materials in the warehouse and causes one of the following activities to be carried out when the inspection date is reached or exceeded:
Inspection lot creation
Inspection lot creation and batch posting to inspection stock
Inspection lot creation and changing status of batch to "not released"
If the expiration date is reached or exceeded for a batch, the batch is blocked. This changes the batch status to "not released" or causes the batch quantity to be posted to blocked stock, if the batch status management function is not active. In this case, an inspection lot is not created.
When you make a usage decision to accept an inspection lot, the batch quantity is posted to unrestricted-use stock or the batch status is changed to "released," depending on the option you selected.
The system calculates the next inspection date for the batch and stores it in the batch record.

Shelf Life Expired Material will automatically be transferred to block stk

Hi,
We have purchased a material, RM u2013 XYZ, Qty u2013 5000 kg, Mfg date u2013 01.06.2010 and Expire date is 30.09.2011. The material was received on 25.06.2010. Presently the stock of material is lying as unrestricted type.
I want to know that when the shelf life of the material will be expired, the material will atomically be transferred to block stock. How do I configure the same?
Further, is there any standard alarming system as to know the shelf life of material is going to be expired?
Regards,
Amit

The problem is that the section of the program (QA07) that blocks the stock runs first. Therefor all "expired" stcok within the time frame specified is moved. When the program runs the section to create inspection lots, it will only take into consideration stock that is in unrestricted stock. Since the stocks have already been moved to blocked stock, there is no stock in unrestricted inventory and hence no inspection lots.
In your case, in the section "Batch status change when expiration date is reached" you need to untick the "Block batch" and remove and values iin "Initial run in days" in this section.
In the section above that tick on "Block batch at inspection date" and maintain a value in "Initial run in days".
This will have the effect of creating lots when the next inspection date falls within the window specified and will move the material to blocked stock on the inspection date.
Keep in mind that this is all working on the "Next Inspection Date" of the batch. Not the expiration date. So you should have a process to keep the next inspection date and the expriation date in sync.
To cover yourself and make sure that batches are blocked if the expriation date is reached, set up QA07 to run again immediately after the above job. In the varinat for this run, tick back on the "Block batch" and set a value in the "Initial run in days". This will then block any stocks missed in the inspection lot creation process above.

Auto Batch generation

Dear All,
Please guide me on the following issue.
We have a batch managed material. When I am transfering the material from Quality stock i.e. with Tr. Code Qa 32 to unrestricted or Blocked batches are getting genrated for every material. Please tell me how to resolve it.
Regards

Dear Kumar,
As said the material is batch managed with external batch assignment. In PP new batch is being created and qty confirmation is done and after that qty is posted to unrestricted use from the QI stock by QM lot but while posting the stock (321 mvt ) background generaates a new bacth and posting stock to new batch. This should not happen. stock must posted to original batch not to new batch.
2 when the QM person do the stock posting to blocked from QI by QM lot system also ask the recieving batch.
this means system is asking for the new batch while doing goods movement.this should not happen.
i hope now u will understand the senario.

Santosh

New lot not appearing in qa32 - v urgent

Hi all,
I have an urgent issue to resolve. we have developed a report that shows those batches
-for which UD has been done 8 days before but no despatch till date OR
-for which no UD has been done and date of production is 8 days before from today.
User wants that a new lot for above batches should appear for UD again in qa32.
For this i have defined procedure as:
1. Run REPORT Which will identify batches older than 8 days (from the days of production or last UD date).
2.Go to QA07 Enter material codes, Batch numbers, and plant and select the option of Block Batch at lot creation.This will transfer all the mentioned batches to blocked stock and create an inspection lot automatically.simultaneously an inspection lot will start appearing in transaction QA32, against this batch for inspection.
Now the issue is that after QA07, I can see in mb52 that stock of the batch move to restricted, but no inspection lot appears in qa32. a new inspection lot should appear in qa32.
any ideas ? have i missed anything? i have also done changes in inspection plan,
cant figure out what i missed. pls respond.
Regards,
Aisha Ishrat
ICI Pakistan Ltd.

Let me simplify my question:
i have some batches in system for which UD had been done 8 days
before but no despatch has been done against those batches.User
want to give UD again for those batches.
what i advised him to change the inspection plan of those
materials by putting '9' in 'usage' and '4'in 'status' fields in
qp01 and then go to qa07 and enter material codes, Batch
numbers, and plant and select the option of Block Batch at lot
creation.The batches automatically transferred to blocked stock.
Now the issue is that after batches transferrence to block stock,
new lot should appear in qa32 but its not appearing.any ideas??
Have I missed any thing? Kindly give a prompt reply.

Process to Move Stock from Unrestricted to Restricted / Quality Stock

Dear All,
In one of my plant Quality Management Module is not implemented, but MM module is live and manually using Mov. Type: 321 stock is transferred from Quality to Unrestricted and vice-verse.
My requirement are as follows:
1) How can stock status be changed automatically from Unrestricted to Restricted / Quality once its re validity period reaches.
(For this Inspection Interval of 365 days has been maintained in QM view.)
2) Inspection Lot is not required.
3) How can QA07 & QA05 can help in this ?
Best wishes,
Vivek Kumar

Hi,
1) I am passing Material code, Plant, taking 'Initial run in days=1' and selecting 'Block Batch at Inspection Date', I am getting msg 'No Entries Found' (In this case Inspection Type '09' was not active)
2) When I activate Insp. Type '09' the Inspection Lot is getting generated when i perform the above process but I dont required Insp. Lot.
Suggestion welcome.
Rgds,
Vivek

Stock posting during Recurring inspection.

Hello Folks,
We are currently in the process of implementing the Recurring inspection process for Batch managed materials. If a Batch of material is available in multiple Storage Locations (for example two), the Job 'Deadline Monitoring of Batches' triggers two transfer postings (to Restricted stock in respective storage locations) and two Inspection Lots.
When the Usage Decision is being taken for the Lot in the first Storage Location, it triggers the Stock Postings in both the Storage Locations from Restricted stock to Unrestricted (though the second inspection lot still has the status 'REL CALC SPRQ') and this stock is available for consumption in the second storage location as well.
Looks like we are missing something here - appreciate any inputs.
Thank you.
SK.

Unfortunately no. It has nothing to do with wether it is a user or a program like QA07 or UD. The indicator or restricited batch is simply a single "X" in the MCH1 table. (MCHA table if at plant level batch). So without a significant rewrite of the software, there isn't a way around it.
You have to look at it this way. If you had the same batch in two WH and one expired and was restricted, you'd want all the other portions of the material restrcited as well. In addition, once released, the entire batch is released.
I'm a bit confused in your case. You seem to indicate you are running the QA07 with the "Block batch" indicator and not the "inspection lot" indicator. But you refer to making a UD. If you are running with block batch in QA07 how are you creating the inspection lots?
If QA07 created the two inspection lots, you should be required to do two stock postings to clear both portions of stock out of QI. So you have me a bit confused when you say you have two lots and the system posts both to unrestricted.
Are you manually creating these? In that case, they are not stock relevant and making a UD to unrestricted can release the batch every where from either lot.
I get the feeling I missed a step in your process.

Return Stock -shelf life expired goods processing

Hi Mates
*Iam maintaining all the materials in Batches.
*My scenerio is when customer returns the goods,matrerails has to posted to seperate storage location.This we have done.
*But when customer returns the shelf life expired material iam unable to do PGR.Only then after changing the Date of MFG in transaction MSC2N iam iam able to do PGR.
*But my requirement is if iam selecting return stock storage location system should not check whether that goods are shelf life expired or not.
*Customer will revalidate the goods and change the date of mfg accordingly.
Kindly do the needful.Thanx in advance
