Creation of new movement type for Goods Receipt

Question

Is it possible to create a new movement type same as 101 (goods receipt)?  We need to create a separate movement type of 101 for the purpose of separating G/L account to be used for local and importation purchases.  Or is there any other way to separate the G/L account for GR of local and importation purchases without creating a new movement type?

Answer 1

You can create new Mvt type by copying Mvt type in OMJJ trxn ..
Please follow the following steps
Check whether you can use the preset movement types.
If not, define new movement types as follows:
1.  Once you have carried out the activity, the system displays a dialog
    box for field selection. In this, you can restrict the movement
    types you work with to various fields. To copy a movement type,
    select the field  Movement type and choose Continue. The dialog box
    Define work area appears.
2.  In the dialog box Define work area, enter the movement type you want
    to copy in the From: field. In the To: field, enter the name of the
    new movement type you want to create. To go to the overview of the
    selected movement types, choose Continue.
3.  Select the movement type you want to copy, and choose Edit -> Copy
    as.
    Overwrite the selected movement type with the new movement type
    (beginning with 9, X, Y, or Z) and copy all dependent entries.
    The system copies all control indicators from the reference movement
    type to the new movement type.
4.  Check all views for the new movement type and, if necessary, change
    the control indicators. Please note that some views have a detail
    screen.
5.  Copy the reversal movement type and enter it in the view
    Reversal/follow-on movement types.
6.  Save your settings.
