Inventory count for Various Stock types

What is Inventory count for Various Stock types?

Hi,
While taking up physical inventory you have the option of doing it for different stock types being maintained .Like Quality stock,unrestricted stock ,blocked stock.If you are doing this activity in sessions in MI31 ,you need to check against the stock types which are to be counted.This will include the stock of the items as selected and leave aside the stock types not selected.In MI01 also you can select these stock types which are donated by 1,2,3 & 4 stock type.After creating the document the stock counted is to be entered in MI04 .Than get the difference list in MI20.The difference will be posted in MI07 which will complete the activity and stock will be adjusted after posting tyhe difference.

Multiple physical inventory counts for same storage loc

We have a plant where the same SAP storage location is used for multiple physical locations (e.g. individual build stations). We would like to be able to count by physical area rather than by part number per se. So the goal would be to enter multiple counts against the same part and post differences only when all counts are done, as defined by the aggregate of the individual counts.
Is this possible? I tested it using MI31 to create phys inventory doc, then Mi04 for count 1 and MI09 for count 2, but received a message M7700 "Physical inventory for XX is already active"
Any ideas would be appreciated.

How do you know in your SAP in which area the material is?
can you know this from MMBE or MB52?
if not, then I do not see any chance for MI31, except you just create one inventory doc for the entire location and make copies of the document for each area you have. after counting you have to consolidate each copy into one and post then the count in MI04.

Physical inventory document - for all A parts

Hi,
We are in the process of preparing our system for physical inventory count for all A parts (Cycle count indicator is A).
1. We ran MI24 to get all open physical inventory documents.(they are around 100).
2.Then we ran MI31 (didn't create batch input) for all A parts and the following are checked - 1. Material marked for deletion 2. only materials w/o zero stock 3. Unrestrcited use 4. Blocked 4. Include inventoried materials 5. Included inventoried batches. The variant for MI31 includes all A parts in the material selection and the required plant and SL are input. The output said, phy inventory documents could be created for 656 materials.
3. I wrote a query with MARC and MARD to get all A parts with unrestricted quantity > 0 for the above specified plant and SL. The list produced 882.
The above two counts are not matching.
I ran MI31 for some of the materials which are in the list materials as per point 3 but not in the above 2. But MI31 said, no physical inventory document can be created.
We want to make sure both the both numbers are equal (step 1 + 2 = step 3), to make sure all A parts will be counted. Can anyone explain why they are not matching? or Am I missing something?
OR any other ways to make sure all A parts will be counted. Thanks,
Regards,
Sundar.

Please refer my comment. It may be useful for you.
There are two ways if you want to carry out Physical Inventory count
1)Manual -
First check if there are no open PI document for a material using MI31.
Then carry out three transactions one after another MI01, MI04, MI07
2) Automatic
Maintain CC physical inv. indicator in material master i.e A, B, C
Before that ensure that you have maintained SPRO setting for A, B and C.
Ok Now check the planned count date in MARC table. Run a Z program to change the last count date
Now run MICN and schedule a job to create PI documents

Invetory count for special stock

Hello,
I use transaction MIGO MVT 313 to remove part of the stock from storage. I can see the result under the column "Transfer(Sloc)" in MMBE.
When I count the inventory the difference is computed against the unresricted stock only.
How may I count the stock under "Transfer(Sloc)"?
Regards,
Amir

Hi,
You can only do Physical Inventory for the following stock types;
1   Warehouse
2   Quality inspection
4   Blocked
And Special Stocks like;
E Orders on hand
K Consignment (vendor)
M Ret.trans.pkg vendor
O Parts prov. vendor
P Pipeline material
Q Project stock
V Ret. pkg w. customer
W Consignment (cust.)
Y Shipping unit (whse)
For Stock Trfr (S Loc), you have to first transfer stock to the receiving location or reverse back to the issuing location and then carry out Physical Inventory for that Storage Location.

Not all storage bins in LX16 transaction Carry Out continous inventory

Hello,
I would be please if anybody knows the way of working of transacction LX16. Our client is running this transaction and have the problem that for a warehouse number and storage type, the report not shows all the storage bins that is created and with stock. If we run LX03 transacction, for the same selection we obteins all the storage bins, but if we do the same for LX16 the storage bin is not showed.
Can somebody help us??
Thanks in advance

hi
LX16 transaction is only for " Continious Physical inventory Counting Only"
LX03 is for bin status Report
Take Continuous Inventory
Purpose
With the continuous inventory method, you take inventory for a certain number of storage bins in a storage type. The inventory can take place at any time during the fiscal year.
Continuous inventory has the following advantages over the annual inventory count at the end of the fiscal year:
The effort and costs for the inventory is not concentrated on a certain day or days but is distributed over the entire year. This means that the warehouse supervisor can plan the workforce needed for the workload in the warehouse more accurately.
Inventory can be conducted during slow times in the warehouse, such as during summer vacation periods.
With a reduction in the effort required at the end of the fiscal year, you can respond better to problems that might arise during a year-end closing.
When an inventory is carried out on a continuous basis, up-to-date information about the correspondence between the warehouse stock and the book inventory is always available.
Prerequisites
Inventory methods are defined for each storage type. To define a continuous inventory for a storage type, see Activities ® Physical Inventory ® Define Types per Storage Type in the Warehouse Management section of the Implementation Guide (IMG) documentation.
Process Flow
To run a continuous inventory, you need to complete the following steps in the order displayed:
Plan the inventory by selecting storage bins, for which you want to take inventory.
Create the system inventory record
Activate the system inventory record
Print the warehouse inventory list.
Take physical inventory in the warehouse.
Enter the inventory results
Close the inventory
Process differences in Warehouse Management (WM) and record them in Inventory Management (IM).
hope this helps to solve your issue

Inventory count for subcontracing material

I want to take the inventory count for the material with subcontracor on 31st march 2008 (previous period).
I have tried to know the stock with subcontractor using T-code ME2o, MB5B, MBLB but I'm not getting desired results(i.e stock values on 31st march).
Is there any other/alternate way.
Please suggest.

Inventory count is used for counting internal material which means within plant and storage location.
To see stock provided to vendor use tcode ME2O.

Problem in the Physical Inventory Count

Hi Experts,
We are facing a problem in the Physical Inventory Count as below
1) Suppose for Material XYZ we have done the MI01 on the current date i.e 14.11.2008 with the Planned Count date as 08.11.2008 activating the Freeze Book Inventory check box.
2) Now if there is any movement of material XYZ between 08.11.2008 & 14.11.2008, then while doing MI20 it compares the Physical Count Quantity with the actual book quantity as on 14.11.2008 i.e the current date & not with actual book quantity as on 08.11.2008 which is required by us.
Can you kindly help us in rectifying this issue at the earliest???
Regards,
Samir Bhatt

hi,
In such cases, you use the adjust Book inventory indicator...
SPRO --> MM --> Inventiry management and PI --> Physical inventory > Settings for the PI> Activate the ADj book inv indicator for your plant as per your plant and make the choice btween 2 and 3...
By this the system will auto adjust the book inventory and the count for the goods mov posted.....
Note: This feature is allowed if the posting is done one day after or before...
But in your case, the days are more, so you need to use the recount technique...

Physical Inventory Count with Batches / Inventory Tracking+Posting

Hi,
There does not seem to be any way to record a Physical Inventory count with Batch managed items.
Scenario-1: In case 1.8 kg of batch number 222 is counted during Physical Count. B1 has Batch number 111 with quantity 2.5kg. B1 assumes that a lesser quantity of existing batch 111 was counted and the batch SELECTION screen appears.
Scenario-2: Similarly, if 3 kg of batch number 222 is counted during Physical Count and Batch number 111 exists on Business One with quantity 2.5kg, then B1 assumes that a new batch was found and the batch CREATION screen appears.
Scenario-3: If 2.5 kg of batch number 222 is counted during Physical Count - with Batch number 111 on Business One with quantity 2.5kg, then B1 assumes a zero "difference" in posting window. Wrong batch removal and new batch addition cannot be done - the batch selection/creation screen does not pop up with CTRL+TAB.
A Physical inventory count sheet with hundreds of rows with all 3 above scenarios in the rows is normally supposed to be entered into any system.
An easy way to do this should exist on SAP B1 but does not appear to exist right now.
Thanks,

Message# 551219/2009
Dear Ajay Audich,
Thanks for your message and screenshots. In current version of SAP Business One, the Inventory Posting functionality does not offer input at the batch level. The system behaves in the following way:
If the Difference number is positive, you will see a Define Bathes
window where you can assign the item quantity to the relevant batches.
If the Difference number is negative, you will see a Batch Number
Selection widow where you can issue item from the relevant batch.
So it isnot possible to enter the count for batch managed items per batch. The possible workaround is after Inventory Posting, use Goods Issue and Receipt to manually adjust the Batch quantity.
Please kindly have a try. If the feature is important for customer
business process, please kindly refer to attached Note 1028874 for
further action.
Sorry for any inconvenience, we appreciate your understanding.
Kind regards,
Canna Mu

MI31: Cannot Create Physical Inventory Document for a Certain Material

Dear SAP MM Friends,
Greetings! I am a budding MM functional analyst in our company. I received a call earlier regarding with transaction code MI31 (Selected Data for Physical Inventory Documents w/o Special Stock). The user cannot generate a physical inventory document for a certain material.
The thing is, we no longer have any stock for this material (MMBE). I tried generating physical document again by ticking "Only Materials with Zero Stock" but to no avail.
May I ask what might be the reasons behind? Your prompt response is highly appreciated.
Thank you very much.
Best Regards,
Albert

Hi,
Please check also the existing physical inventory document for material, probably you still have active physical document from previous period.
1. Go to MI22 --> select your plant, storage location or you can also specify your material number --> execute.
2. Check your Physical Document list, at field Status doc. --> if the status is Doc. active, but it is not in your current period, then it could be the problem.
3. Delete the physical inventory doc that you found in step 2 (use tcode MI02 --> physical doc, year --> choose delete button)
4. Try to create new physical document for the material.
hope this help.
