How can I reserve stock for a specific sales order?

We would like to reserve stock for a specific sales order X which must be delivered next month. I have created a reservation (trx. MB21) for sales order X (movement type 231). MD04 list shows the reservation and decreases ATP stock. Stock is blocked for allocation to other sales orders. So far, it works as required. But: I cannot deliver sales order X either! It is possible to post GI for the reservation but there is no link to sales order X. It is still not possible to deliver sales order X. I thought entering the sales order number in the reservation would link the reservation to the sales order but appearently it is not.
Does anyone know if it is possible to use reservations for reserving stock for sales orders? If yes, how does it work?
If not, is there a way to reserve stock for future issue of a specific sales order or for a specific customer?
Regards,
Mariët
PS We confirm all sales orders. Stock allocation / ATP-check only takes place at delivery creation.

Hi Csaba,
Thanks for your reply. We are not going to work in MTO environment because we do not make/purchase to order... I will explain our process/requirement in detail:
Normaly a customer orders our products and we deliver from stock. Sometimes a customer calls and informs us that he needs an extraordinary large amount of the product next month. Customer tells us that it is very important that the full quantity is available that date. For us it is no problem to purchase that amount of products in time but we must avoid other customers to take away the stock. Since we confirm all sales orders and do not allocate stock to sales orders, I am looking for a solution to 'reserve' that amount of stock for that specific customer to be available at that specific date (next month).
I tried to use reservations but then I need a sales order number, so that's why I created a sales order with delivery date next month. I created a reservation (movement type 231, sales order number X + sales order item number). Unfortunately the stock can still be assigned to other customers/sales orders... (I was expecting that only sales order X could use this reserved stock...).
Do you know if reservations can be used for this purpose? I do not need a sales order (I only created it because I need to enter a sales order + item in the reservation), if there is a way to reserve quantity for a specific customer this would be a good solution for us as well.
Thanks in advance for your advise.
Regards,
Mariet

  • How can i change unit of measurement in sales order on header

    Dear all,
    I have material master with base unit of measurement " Ea ".
    I have to take unit Pc in sales order.
    how can i change unit on header in sales order.
    i changed unit on line item in sales order by setting in sales unit field in material master.

    Hi,
    You can very well do it, please do the following steps,
    Go to material master and select the Sales Org.1 and 2, here maintain the sales unit PC and
    it will ask you for the conversion, so maintain your conversion for PC to EA. Then maintain
    the Division, delivery plant, material pricing group and account assignment group(if not maintained) and save it
    Now create the sales order for that resp. material, you will find that system will pick up
    the sales unit which is maintained in the material master's sales orgnization tab.
    For this you need not to change at the header level of sales order
    Please check and revert.
    Thanks,
    Hrishi

  • Reserve stock against one particular sales order and issue the same

    Hi,
    My client wants that he should he able to reservestock for a particular sales order only, so that during availability check, the stock is not issued against any other sales order.
    I have tried to do stock reservation by using t-code MB21, then the stock gets transferred from Unrestricted stock to restricted stock.
    When i Do the PGI, it is still reducing the unrestricted stock and the reserved stock is unaltered.
    My client is not a manufacturing unit, they are basically into only trading of goods.
    Can some one please suggest what steps can i do?
    Also if tehre is any alternative to accomplish the same?
    You can mail me any documnettaion regarding the same, is any on       [email protected]
    Thanks'
    Priyanka

    see when ur changing the stock from restricted use to unrestricted use then
    its fine but as u mentioned while doing particular moment type you want the stock to get reduced from restricted use but not from unrestricted use
    for this u need to change the moment type from 651 to some thing else because the moment type 651 will reduce the stock from restricted use and allocate to the customer
    so maintain a diff moment type for ur particular order type ( means this particular order type has an itme cat which detrmines a schedule line cat in thth schedule line cat maintain a diff omnt type instead of 601)
    well try 231

  • How to findout lot number for a given  sales order number

    Hi,
    My requirement is to display lot numbers for a given sales order number.
    Thanks,
    Bala.

    select a.line_number, c.lot_number from oe_order_lines_all a, mtl_material_transactions b, mtl_transaction_lot_numbers c
    where a.line_id=b.trx_source_line_id
    and b.transaction_id=c.transaction_id
    and a.line_Id=&your_line_id;
    and b.transaction_type_id in (33, 34, 52) sales order shipment or internal order shipment or staging etc.,
    If this is for shipped sales order, you can alternatively get it from wsh_delivery_details (does not work for dropships and inventory interface cases)

  • How can you block production for a specific product in SNP planning book

    Hi All,
    Looking for a way to manually indicate a decision to prevent production in a specific cell for a product in the SNP planning book utilizing the supply planning and capacity leveling heuristics.  For this requirement the resource would have available capacity during that time period.  It also could plan other products in that time period.  The requirement is for a planner to manually go into the planning book to somehow indicate that the heuristic should not consider that time period as available for a specific product, while still leaving the resource available for other products.
    Has anyone run into this before?  Any experience on how to stop a heurisitc from considering a specific time bucket  for a specific product as available for orders?
    Thanks
    -Mike

    Hello Mike,
    I haven't tried it yet myself but I kow that there is the option in the Planning Book to manually fix several periods for a specific location product. This will prevent the heuristic from planning these periods for the specified product. For details please have a look in the Online Help for SNP under key word "Order Fixing".
    regards

    Dear all,
    I would like to reserve 1000 kg for wholesalers use without create any sales order?
    Can I do that?
    Best Regards,
    Amy

    Hi,
    In Inventory Super User: On-hand, Availability: Reservations, look for the reservation you have previously created. Then, go to Tools Menu and select Transfer Demand. In the form opened, define Sales Order as Demand Type, and then inform the sales order and sales order line. Then, press the button transfer.
    Hope it helps,

  • How can you find patches for a specific product?

    Unless you have a patch number, it is a pain to try and find the latest patch for a particular product. In fact, it is a pain to find a product unless you have the name:))
    1. If you do not have the product name, but know the function/purpose, what is the best way to find the Sun product? For example, I want to start using SNMP. That is all the info I have. Is it possible to find the package name and required patches using the Sun site?
    The patchfinder is great if you have a starting number:))
    Thanks,
    Zeek

    The bi weekly patch reports are generally a good start.
    Do some keyword searches in those pages.

  • WBS element field mandatory for specific sales order

    Hi Friends,
    I want to make the WBS element field in sale order line item to be mandatory for a specific sales order type. I am not able to add this field in incompletion log also. So can anyone let me know the solution for this.
    Ratna

    Hi,
    As solution suggest above is correct use VBAP table and Field is PS_PSP_PNR into ur incompletion log and assign this procedure to ur Item category. And If u want to WBS element check at header level the use VBAK table and field PS_PSP_PNR and assign this incompletion log to ur sales document type.
    Once more setting is required to stop the order from saving if incompletion check is unsucessful, for that you need to check a checkbox named "Incomplete. Message" in VOV8 tcode, for ur perticular sales document types.
    Hope this will resolve ur problem.
