Chaning Vendor or Supp Plant in PO/STO

Hi All,
Can the Vendor or Supplying Plant in PO or STO be changed once the PO or STO is saved?
I tried and the Vendor/Supplying Plant field is blue. Is this Std SAP functionality not being able to change Vendor / Supp Plnt in PO or STO if a user makes a mistake?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
It is not possible to change Vendor or Supplying Plant once the PO is saved. If by mistake user has maintained wrong details then ask him to delete this PO and create correct one.

STO for a customer/vendor of another plant

Is it possible to transfer a stock from a plant warehouse to a customer or vendor of another plant? What is the procedure?

Thanks. Yes, all our SC vendors are assigned to Plant. Based on Sub con PO created, the vendor stock gets created.
My concern: I want to transfer a stock (as such removal) from one plant say P1 to a customer/vendor of another plant P2. This SC vendor will supply FG to P2 as the Subcon PO is created so. Logically, via ME2O, P2 should provide the component to that vendor. But In real time, physically components are being supplied from P1.
How can I send a stock from one plant to a customer of another plant? This can be done 541 Transfer posting.. From: IG10 Dest: IG14 and with the SC vendor.
But before I do this 541 Transfer posting I need a base order ( I thought STO is the way) from which I should do OBD and then I should go for that 541 transfer posting..
from P1 to SC vendor via P2..
Am I clear? Is it possible?

STO with 2 vendors for one plant

Hello!
We are facing problems with stock transfer using transport order (STO). We want to use 2 different vendors for the same plant (MK02 > Purchasing Data > Extras > Add.purchasing data). Some countries in our company should purchase from vendor X and others from vendor Y (X and Y is the same plant). The vendors have different settings.
Our problem is that SAP allows only one plant as vendor (table T001W-LIFNR). When we try to create a source list (ME01) for the vendor not in T001W-LIFNR we get the error message:
Vendor X and supplying plant PPPP incompatible
Message no. 06732
Diagnosis
You have entered vendor X and supplying plant PPPP in the source list. However, a different supplying plant has been assigned to vendor X in the master record.
Procedure
Enter either the vendor or the desired supplying plant.
Is works fine with the other vendor (the one defined for plant as vendor).
Has anybody an idea how we can solve this issue?
Thanks in advance and best regards
Reinhard

Reinhard,
I think you may be confusing the purpose of a stock transport order.
The vendor assigned to the supplying plant is just another way to represent that plant. Since there is only one plant, there can ONLY be one vendor. In effect, plant = vendor. One plant in your organization is 'buying' product from another plant in your organization. One plant represents the 'customer', and one plant represents the 'vendor'.
The vendor in the STO is totally unrelated to the vendor from which you originally bought the product.
Can you describe the business requirement which makes you think you need more than one vendor per supplying plant?

Can U Think of Any Situation Where U Find VENDOR Info. Populated for a STO?

Hi,
Can you think of any situation where you will find VENDOR information populated for a STO moving stock from a Plant to Store under the same company code?
I got an error ("Enter goods for vendor XXXX only") and this was triggered by the fact that one STO had vendor information in the delivery document. The outcome of this was that every STO beneath this STO could not be GR, but every STO before and including the STO were GR without any issues....
Your response is higly appreciated..
Thanks

SegeTx,
I am not sure exactly what you mean when you say "Vendor information populated for an STO". Is this a UB STO?
Tell me exactly what transaction you are performing, and the data you are entering, when you get the GR error.
Generally, when you set up master data for a STO, you have to assign a vendor to the plant. It is possible that somehow the source plant has become un-assigned from the vendor. WB03, clik past any warnings, enter the plant. In the upper right corner, there should be a vendor. If nothing is there, then you have to re-assign the vendor to the source plant. MK02 enter the vendor you wish to assign to the plant, and the purch org you should use for the STOs. Execute. Select extras > addl purch data. enter the plant. Save.

Automatic update of vendor code during plant to plant Transfer

Hi all,
How to configure automatic update of vendor code during plant to plant Transfer.
Regards
KK

hi,
In transfer posting there is no buying/selling of the goods...there is only transfers may be from plant ot plant...or storage loc to st location...etc...
When you do plant to plant stock transfer, there is no role of the vendor...but the receiving and the destination plant/storage loc plays a big role...
Hope its clear...

Purchasing Info Record- Different Regular Vendor for different Plant

Dear Guru,
I'm encounter a problem with PIR.
I have this PIR 9001 (Vendor A) and 9002 (Vendor B) for material A, which i have extended to 2 different Pur.Org 0001 under company code 0001 and Pur.Org 0002 uner Company code 0002.
For Pur.Org 0001, i set the Regular Vendor as Vendor A, but when i trying to set the regular vendor for Pur.Org 0002 to be as Vendor B, i receved the message as "Up to now, vendor A has been regular vendor for this material".
And After i changed this Regular vendor to vendor B, this changed have also affected the PIR for Pur. Org 0001.
Can i know if there is a way to change the PIR Regular vendor at Pur.Org or Plant level?
Thank you very much,
Regards,
Chee Wee

Hi,
Regular vendor is at client level.
That's why, you cann't maintain more then one vendor (Source of supply) for the same material.
If you want to maintin separate vendor for the each plant and same material combination, then don't activate / select regular vendor option in the info record. You have to maintain source list.
Sour list is nothing but a list of source of supplies for the specific plant and material combination with in the validity period of time. If there are more then one vendor for the specific plant and material combination for the same validity period of time, then you can activate fixed vendor option in the source list. Then at the time of creating PO, SAP will pick fixed vendor for the Plant and Material combination.
So first, system will check whether regular vendor is there for this material in the info record. If is there,system will pick regular vendor in the PO. If not, then system will check fixed vendor in the source list for the material and plant combination. If yes, then system will pick fixed vendor from the source list. If not system will propose all the vendors in the source list. If the source list it self not created, then user has to give vendor number manually.

Plant to Depot STO Returns

Hi Experts,
I am an MM guy but as the issue was not solved in MM path, I am posting to you SD gurus.
Is there any process to get back the material sent via STO from Plant to Depot as Returned material?
The client has done partial sale of stock at Depot and wants to return the remaining stock to Plant.
Partial PGI for returns is not allowed in the system.
Please suggest a way such that the material is shown against the STO as returned material. We normally suggest 301 mvmt from Depot to Plant or Reverse STO from Depot to Plant.
Hope to get a suitable answer.
Regards,
MouleswaraRao.

Dear Mouleswara Rao,
Pls check following SD process:
1. Create STO which must be created in receiving plant (Manuf.plant) by ME21N
2. Create outbound delivey order) and PGI w.r.t. STO in Depot.(VL10B)
3. Post depot excise invoice using J1IJ.
4. Post the Goods Receipt in receiving plant.
5. Post excise invoice number using J1IEX.
6. Verify Invoice using MIRO.
stock transfer from depot to plant process flow

Vendor as a Plant in STO

hello guys,
I have a small query like can we use Vendor as a Supplying plant for STO as we have to use this on day today basis and client dont want to go for Consignment.
is there any field in vendor master that can help me to use the Vendor master as a supplying plant in STO please tell me the needful.
have a great Day.
regards,
ninad kshirsagar

Exactly i was thinking like When will pick the STO in ME21N it will show the supplying plant and blank field at that point i want to use the vendor no. but in the manner like i dont want to prepare a new Plant at the name of vendor.
so whenever i use STO with vendor ID system shouldn't show the error message.
that's my requirement.

ninad

How to specify the vendor for supply plant in stock transfer oder process

Hi experts,
In the sceniro of intercompany STO, I want to know how to set up the link between supply plant and the vendor ?
Thank you.

Hi
I think you are talking about Inter Company STO...if yes,
Follow the below steps to to make STO between two plants belongs to different company company codes.It is also called as Inter Company STO.....
*1)Create one Customer Master in XD01 with respect to Supplying Plant Sales Area and assign this Customer no with Receiving Plant in OLME->PO-> set up STO->Define shipping data for plant and for the supplying Plant assign the above sales area.( Make sure,In Customer Master,sales Area Tab: you are maintaining shipping condition)*
*2) For Receiving Plant Pur. Org and Co.Code Combination create Vendor master in XK01 and in this vendor master assign the Supplying plant in Pur.Org.Data screen->Extras--> Add.Pur.data
3) OLME->PO-> Set up STO------>For your supplying plant assign document type NB, Delivery type NLCC and Checking Rule RP
4)then For your supplying Plant and receiving Plant assign Document type NB
5)Make sure you are maintaining Sales View for the material at supplying Plant and in Sales /Gen plant Data view maintain Availability check, Loading group and Transportation group.
6) In SPRo-->Logistics execution> Shipping->Basic shipping functions->Shipping point Determination>assign shipping points-> For your Loading group,Shipping Condition and Supplying plant combination,Assign shipping point
these are the configuration settings you have to do in background.
Then Create STO from Receing Plant in ME21N with document type NB.
Based on that STO, Create Delivery in VL10B from supplying Plant
Do PGI in VL02N from Supplying plant
Do GR in MIGO at Receiving Plant keeping Outbound delivery as a ref. document.
Now your STO bet. two plants belongs to diff. Co.Codes will be completed.
Reward if useful

Purchase of Raw Mat by New Plant (CoCd New) from Old Plant (CoCd Old), STO?

Dear all
Our HQ which has an operating Plant A belonged to Company Code (CoCd) A,has acquired Plant B belonged to Company Code B.
And due to the supply change management issue and strategic business location, HQ has decided to move both Plant A and Plant B into a new location (both Plant A and B are located quite far from each other) and these 2 plants are going to be consolidated into a new Plant C with new Company Code C. And CoCd A and B will then cease to operate.
Now, due to the legal requirements, CoCd C will need to purchase all the raw materials from both CoCd A and CoCd B respectively at a different date due to the plant move.
Previously, I have come out with the solutions
1. Extend the material codes of Plant A & B to Plant C. Extend the SLOC as well.
2. Plant C will create normal PO to buy from Plant A, with vendor = Plant A. Price will take from Supplying Plant A.
3. Plant C will perform GR reference to this PO. Here the Stock Account of Plant C will be Debit.
4. To reduce Stock Account of Plant A, perform GI to Scrap. Then FICO will do double entry to bring the value to Customer Account which is Plant C.
5. Since we do not PGI or touch on SD, there is no billing doc and manual customer invoice has to be done.
However, on 2nd thought, I think of to use Stock Transport Order. However, there are a few types of Stock Transport Order in SAP HELP:
1. STO between Plants with 1 step
2. STO between Plants with 2 steps
3. STO with SD delivery
4. STO without Delivery
5. STO with SD delivery and billing.
We are running against time and would prefer not to touch on anything in SD to do STO. And we do not need to monitor the Stock Transit as physical plant move will take place first, that make STO in PLant with 2 steps no applicable.
Requirement:
1. PO raised must take the standard price in Material Master of the supplying plant.
2. It involves buying of stocks of 1 new plant C from the old plant A & B at the respective time. Accoutning document and relevant posting must be audited for legal purpose.
3. If possible, we prefer not to touch on SD or the complicated solution to achieve this purpose.
I have read a lot about the above 5 types of STO but I am unsure which one is best suit me. Please advise.
Thanks.

I just tested with Option 4: Create STO without SD Delivery.
However, in the PO itself, it does not even have the INVOICE TAB at the item level. How am I going to perform Invoice Verfication to put the 17 % input tax which is very important?
However, I have proceded with my testing for STO without Delivery
1. Create PO with UB Doc Type and Item Category U, supply plant = Plant A. However, there is no Invoice Tab at the item.
2. Perform GI reference PO, MVT 351. Here due to come missing config, I have done the following:
     a.Company Clearing Account
     b.Create customer master CoCd CN10
     c.Create vendor master for CoCd CN50
     d.Account type D is not defined for document type WA. Go to OBA7 to tick Customer.
     e.Account type K is not defined for document type WA. Go to OBA7 to tick Vendor
    1 Material doc with 2 accounting doc generated, each for CoCd C and CoCd A
4. Perform GR referenc ePO, MVT 101.
    1 Material doc generated with no accounting doc.
5. MMBE Stock Overview, stock quantity of Plant A is now transferred to new plant C.
There is no way I can do invoice as in MIRO, it said my PO contains no item.
I desperately need my perform STO to have
(a) Invoice Verification to capture input tax 17%
(b) Delivery Cost maintained.
I do not want to complicate the material master maintenance of the sales view of all my 16000 raw materials. That is why I prefer not to go for STO with SD DElivery.
Can anyone please advise?

Error "Material not subject to inventory management in Plant " on the STO

I want to create a Stock tansport order ( plant to plant transfer) with stock & non-stock item and non stock item is giving an error "Material not subject to inventory management in Plant". Please tell me how to clear this error. Plant / SLOC view is already maintained and no qty/value update selected on the material type because of non stock item. Please tell me how to overcome this error on the STO

Hello,
As you said you want to move nonstock item through STO.
It seems that in your case say for example your plant 1000 has material ABC which is maintained as stock item.
Now you have another plant 2000, whaich has same material ABC which is maintained as non-stock item (generally used in third party sales or cross docking).
If your material ABC is nonstock in plant 2000 where no stocks are mainatined, then how can you move the stock to plant 1000 where it is stock item.
Could you please confirmthat can you see the stock in MMBE for plant where that material is maintained as non stock item.
If so, then you have chnage the plant specific material status for that plant from non stock item to stock item.
This is maintained in material master in purchasing view.
The other way out is you have to third party sales with ship to party as the plant where that item is maintained as stock item.
In this case flow is
Sales order>>Purchase requistion>>Purchase order>>(Vendor supplies material directly to customer (which is you plant where that item is stock item))
Br,
Tushar
Instead you can acheive

HI,
Check u had done the below steps,
Create STO and input the freight/delivery costs in PO and assign the Transporter or Freight Vendor to the conditions by clicking on "Details" button in Conditions Tab
For that you have to do following settings;
Go to SPRO > MM > Purchasing > Purchase Order > Define Document Types > Here select "UB" and copy to a new PO Doc type.
In SPRO > MM > Purchasing > Conditions > Define Price Determination Process > Define Schema Determination > Determine Schema for Stock Transport Orders > Here assign Calculation Schema "RM2000" i.e. Stock Transfer Document to Schema Grp Pur. Org, STO Type (New One) and Supplying Plant.
Calculation Schema "RM2000" has condition type P101 which will pick up the MAP of supplying plant automatically during creation of STO in ME21N ("Conditions" Tab).
You can create new freight/delivery cost conditions in M/06 and assign in pricing procedure "RM2000" in M/08
After STO, do Outbound delivery in VL10D, then GR in MIGO and then go for LIV w.r.t. STO in MIRO
Here select "Planned Delivery Cost" and do necessary procedure.
