Clear negative WM Stocks

Hi,
Need to clear negative WM stocks. Please let me know if any of you have come across this scenario and solution.
Scenario : warehouse management activated for plant+storage location for which stock already exists. Any more stock removal from this storage location results in a negative quant's at WM.
Steps to construct the scenario
1. Posted a Material document, say for a quantity of 10, results in IM stock of 10. No warehouse stocks exits.
2. Warehouse management activated for plant+storage location.
3. Material document is cancelled
4. As a result stock at IM is zero, where as stock at WM is -10
P.S : Transaction LX23 does not solve this scenario (-ve stocks)
Error Message " The following WM stock figures could not be cleared because quantities are negative or belong to returns stock "
Possible solutions:
1. Reversing configuration may not be feasible as huge stocks exits in this storage location for other materials, which may result in other issues.
2. Deleting table entries. What are the other tables entries to be deleted apart from table "LQUA" ?
Thanks in advance

To be honest, I did not face this scenario, because I did the activation of WM in the right sequence.
You cannot just activate WM without doing any extra action to load your IM stock as well to WM to get it into sync.
Please follow the link, it tells you what alternatives you have when implementiong WM to an already existing IM.

Unable to clear out the stock in SAP

Hi Expert!
Need your help. I have an issue, my user wants to clear out the stock in SAP because they are the old stock and there's no stock in actual warehouse for those materials actually. it is just in the system taht showing those materials have stock in warehouse. but however, she's unable to clear out the stock. So when i check in the system, the materials are batch managed and still have open POs dated on 2003 which has already old. Is it the reason why she can't clear the stock? Do i need to ask her to off the batch management for those materials,then delete the POs and then only she able to clear the stock? Please advise on the solution..
Thanks.

Negative closing stock on back date

All SAP Gurus,
We have made GR (MIGO) on todays posting date.
And issued the material on yesterday's posting date (past date), (where there was no stock on that date).
System allowed us to issue the material on past date, on which there was no stock.
And now showing closing stock on previous date as negative.
We want to avoid such negative closing stock.
What configuarational changes we need to do?
Regards,

hi
This is standard functionality .. u can not do anything in std. as there is no error message available for this
u can do one thing In OMSY u can remove remove the check mark in the ABp (Allow Back Posting) check box for your Company Code, to stop postings in the closed periods.
or in MMRV do not tick posting in previous period

How to revaluate negative closing stock value in SAP B1?

Hi all,
I am trying to revaluate those items with the negative closing stock value using Inventory Revaluation. I choose Inventory Debit/Credit for the revaluation type and key in the item code, quantity, +ve value in debit/credit, G/L increase and decrease account.
After I added the Inventory Revaluation successfully , I go and check in the Inventory Audit Report for the specified item but found that the item still with the negative closing stock value.
My major concern here is the items with negative closing stock value do not have any in stock quantity. Can I adjust the negative closing stock value of the items with zero quantity?
Thanks.
Best Regards,
Xavier

Hi all.
Just found out why I cannot do the negative stock value revaluation. When I want to do the inventory revaluation for the items of negative stock value with zero quantity, the journal entry will debited to the wrong account, that is 507040-00-000 (Price Difference Account).
Inventory Revalution for item with zero quantity:

Sample of Charts of Accounts:
[http://img31.imageshack.us/img31/2078/coaq.jpg]
When I do the inventory revaluation for the items where the in stock quantity is greater than zero, the journal entry will debited to the correct account, that is 105011-00-000 (Consumables account).
Inventory Revaluation for item with quantity greater than zero:

The items are under the same item group - Consumables

I do not why this will happen when I try to revaluate the items with negative stock value of zero quantity?
Kindly share with me your opions.

Clear the negative from stock in transit

Hello,
I am looking at transit stock and have several cases where for intercompany PO the delivery has been created and GI'd but the receiving plant makes excess GR for the actula qty hence creating negative stock in transit. Apart from asking the origin plant to create a delivery + PGI. what other solution would be available to clear the differences?
Thank you.
Sai

Hi
This happens because as you say the receiving plant have received more than was on the delivery, However if they actually have the stock I personally thik that is what they should do to keep the stocks correct.
In theory you should have stock showing in the sending plant that you do not have as the receiving plant has it and so to keep the stocks correct and to keep the finances correct you should raise another delivery for the extra stock (on the same PO/STO doc) and when you issue it the negative will dissappear.
Remember ALL negatives appear fror a reason and should not be just 'cleared' without some investigation.
In this case you know the answer so you can ;fix' it
I hope that this helps

How to Clear plant level Stock in SAP-EHS_Waste management

Hi Experts,
I implemented business practices 855 and 938 in a sandbox environment and a part of the waste processing is not clear for me.
How do clear the waste from my plant in MM? The best practice asks to create a purchase order, to validate it and to invoice it. The waste is still in my plant!
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Manglesh

Hi Manglesh
In waste management there are several options:
- You can control inventory management or not; if you do it, you need to post and clear the stock of your waste.
- You can control batch management or not; if you do it, you need to post and clear the stock of your waste using batches.
- You can control warehause management or not; if you do it, you need to post and clear the stock, and to put in and to take out the waste in a location in the warehouse.
In waste management there isn't a direct link between the purchase orden and the inventory management, the stock moves aren't visible in the PO history. If you are usisng inventory management, first you post the waste, second you create a purchase order (someone will manage your waste, and you must pay for it); when a transporter take your waste, then you clear your waste (there is a function that you need to customizing to do it).

Negative Available Stock

Hi All,
Just would like to ask why SBO allows to process the release of stock even if that there is not enough stock on hand. Its not even prompting that its already below minimum stock level.
Im attaching the screenshots for your reference.
http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w230/llowen08/image003.png
Thanks..
Llowen

Llowen,
In your second image, I did not see Manage inventory by whse checked. Please read the following and check Manage inventory by whse.
Manage inventory by whse
Defines whether the check is performed for the warehouse selected in the document row. If you select the checkbox, the system checks the minimum inventory level in the warehouse that was selected for the item when the sales document was entered.
If the transaction causes the inventory level in that warehouse to fall below the minimum inventory level, a warning message appears even if the total available inventory of the item is greater than the minimum warehouse quantity. If you do not select this checkbox, the system checks the total available inventory in all warehouses where this item is stored.
You can also define automatic notification for a specific user when the inventory level falls below the minimum level. A purchase transaction can then be initiated.
Block negative inventory
Select to block documents that would cause the level of inventory to fall below zero. If you deselect the checkbox, the message Negative inventory usage is not in accordance with accounting rules. Are you sure you want to enable negative inventory usage?
If you select Manage inventory by whse and Block negative inventory, SAP Business One calculates the block per warehouse. However, if the item is not handled by a warehouse and you do not select Manage inventory by Whse, the block is calculated for all the warehouses.

LS24 stock showing up as negative with stock type Q

Hi Gurus,
Can anybody please help me through this issue. The quality team passed an inspection lot and i see that there is a mterial doc generated with movement type 321 with a storage type 922, storage bin TR_ZONE stock category Q and posting change number on the WM tab of the material doc. Now i also see that there is this quantity of material showing up in LS24 with a negative sign and stock type Q. Now what do we need to so that the entry for the material goes away from LS24 and that the user can move this material from storage type 922 to 003 (where we usually store all tyhe materials).
Thanks
Anusha

As susggested, i tried to creat the transfer order from LU04 and/or LT06 and i get the error message.
No quants exist for posting changes
Message no. L3094
Diagnosis
No quants requiring a posting change were found.
Procedure
Check your entries.
Also to give little more background on why this problem could be happening is, all these days we used todeal with 101 movement type for international purchases. But recently we went with 107 and 109 movement types for international purchases. The advantage of doing this was, some of our vendors were on 30 days payment terms and it usually takes 60 days to get the material via ocean to US. PLus we take the ownership of material in Asia. So the way we handled this was the moment ownership is taken we would do a 107 (here inspection lot will not be created as the material is still on the water, this is made in config), which would then allows us to post invoice and process for payment, then finally when the material arrives at our plant in US, then we would do a 109 (during this inspection lot will be created, i made this entry in config). I'm starting to think that this could have impavceted somewhere in WM. By the way we only have one plant that is warehouse managed, rest of the other plants are not WM managed. I hope this background will help is solving this problem
Thanks

Cenvat CLEARING account in Stock transfer order

Hi
Please tell way to clear Cenavt CLEARING account in intra company stock transfer order(Within same company code).We will not post any MIRO against the STO.
Thanx
Mani

Hi,
1. Create a Subtransaction type for STO in the receiving plant.
2. Copy the GRPO excise transaction type and change the clearing account
3. suggest the user to enter the sub transaction type manually during excise invoice capturing (when the material is received from the other plant only).
4. If you need some validations to avoid user entry mistakes, please take the help of ABAPer and incorporate some validations while capturing excise Invoice like checking whether the PO referred is Intra company or normal. etc...
For manual clearing, approach your fellow FICO consultant.

Girish

1.Iam using 0valuated stock as my keyfigure for closing stock
2.I Have checked in MB5B in R/3 side and came to know that in movement type 641 which is related to goods issued some batch numbers are getting repeated in BW side.

3.The cube is on built on 3.5.
Please advice.

Hi,
Use 2LIS_03_BX, 2LIS_03_BF, 2LIS_03_UM to 0IC_C03 Cube and design the report.
Use :See the steps how to load the data to 0IC_C03.
Treatment of historical full loads with Inventory cube
Setting up material movement/inventory with limit locking time
If it is BI 7 then for BX in in DTP in Extraction Tab you need to select Extacrion mode = NON-Cumulative option.
0VALSTCKVAL      " For Value
0VALSTCKQTY      " For Qty
0CALMONTH        " For Month
Use the above combinations in New Selections in columns and go it.
For Qty Opening:
New Selection, drag and drop following InfoObjects
0VALSTCKQTY     " For Qty
0CALMONTH       " For Month and restrict with less then or equalto option variable (single value, user input) and set the offeset
                " value = -1 bcoz if user will give 12.2009 , so it will display 11.2009 closing stock, this is opening for 12.2009.
For Qty Closing:
New Selection, drag and drop following InfoObjects
0VALSTCKQTY    " For Qty
0CALMONTH      " For Month and restrict with less then or equalto option variable (single value, user input) .
In the same way build for Value and other Keyfigures on 0IC_C03.
And
Drag & drop
0MATERAIL
0PLANT " Give some Input Variable.

Clearing up negative stock approach during month end

Dear all,
I have a question with regards to how to clear up negative stock during month end.
Currently our system allows negative stock due to our company process requirement. However, these negative stocks will need to clear-up by finance or warehouse during month end.
May I know what is the best approach (including tcode, and business process) for this activity?
Thanks.

regarding your point 2: it is not possible to clear negative stock with phyiscal inventory, as you cannot even create a inventory document if you have negative stocks.

Hi:
        As per my understanding this happens when MIGO is done in case of a subcontracting PO
Stock-CS/RM                                     Dr
GR/IR Clear RM/PM/CS                             Cr
Inventory Change Sub-Cont RM     Dr
Ext Serv Sub-Cont                             Dr
Stock-CS/RM                                             Cr
Sub-Cont Cons RM                             Dr
Upon MIRO
Ext Serv Sub-Cont                             Cr
GR/IR Clear RM/PM/CS             Dr
Inv Change Sub-Cont RM     Dr
Vendor                                            Cr
Duties                                      Dr
Stock-CS/RM                                   Cr
Hence Inventory change account is cleared as soon as MIRO is done. Hope it will clear your understadning
Regards
