Inventory in SAP

Hello Everyone,
What are all different movement types to remove stock from SAP (Similar to 551-Reduce to stock in SAP). Financial implications doesn't matter
Thanks in advance

Hi Amar,
Go to MB1A, click F4 on movement type & you will get a list of movements, in this your basically moving the stock from stock to different areas within your orgranization eg: 261 from store to production. etc But you will have to not count the reversal movements as it puts it back into stock
Also the reversal movements for GR will take it out of stock eg: 102, QC insp rejection reduces stock via 122, vendor returns via 161 reduces stock, 502 mvt. removes stock as well...
Hope the above gives you a better picture. It would be more helfpul if you have a specific query about a movement type.
Regards,
Vivek

  • Setting Non-perpetual Inventory in SAP Business One

    Dear SAP partners,
    Do you know how to setup non-perpetual inventory in SAP Business One?
    I have tried to uncheck "Use Perpetual Inventory" in Administration > System Initialization > Company Details > Basic Initialization but SAP shows "item cost cannot be base price origin for gross profit calculation".
    I also have tried to uncheck "Calculate Gross Profit" in Administration > System Initialization > Document Settings > General but SAP still shows "Item cost cannot be base price origin for gross profit calculation".
    Thank you for your help.
    Regards,
    Jimmy

    Dear Jitin,
    I am able to change anything under the dropdown of the 'Calculate Gross Profit'
    i can change Base Price Origin, choose option button of calculate % Gross Profit.
    I am sure to uncheck Perpetual Inventory, but SAP's still showing "Item cost cannot be base price origin for gross profit calculation, even though i already uncheck "Calculate Gross Profit".
    There is also no transactions entered in the database.
    What should I do then?
    Thank you.

  • Adjustment of inventory between SAP and Legacy system

    Hi Gurus,
    Here is the scenario:
    1) One plant within a company code is in SAP and the other plant in a same company code is still in legacy. Since both of them are Not in SAP, I cannot do an STO.  But, ROH materials need to be moved from the legacy plant to the plant in SAP. I cannot treat the legacy plant as a Vendor, since we are Not paying them. But, still, we should make sure that the inventory needs to be devaulated by the monetary value of the goods taken out and the other inventory (plant in SAP) needs to be enriched by such monetary value.
    2) Similar situation as above, but between 2 Company Codes of same controlling area. Here one Company Code is in SAP, other is in legacy, but, when the other company code will be in SAP, it will be under same controlling area. The two companies are under one business. Some type of intercompany transfer (netting) needs to be done. Here, I have to treat the legacy company as a Vendor.(but modifying bank details)
    I understand, that it may not be possible in standard SAP, but what type of custom developments should I put up ? Any type of custom movement types? How should I set up the Vendor Master (in case of second scenario, the bank details to involve the netting thing).
    Any type of information is very valuable and I would be indeed very grateful.
    Thanks,
    Kumar

    For requirement 1, I suggest you keep track of the inventory acct for legacy and SAP system as separate acct to simplify reconciliation. Once this is done, you can use transaction MB1C movement 561 (or a copy of this movement type). This movement allows you to enter transaction amount in local currency as well; if this is not available, you can customize this through configuration for field selection of movement type (OMJJ). So through this posting, you can enter corresponding material, plant, quantity, and transaction amount that's passed from legacy system. In the account determination, you can set the opposite entry for inventory acct as the inventory acct from legacy system.
    You can then setup an interface that periodically extract GI txn on legacy system, and another interface that performs BDC or call transaction on movement 561 (or a copy of this movement) on SAP system

  • Accounting for customer inventory in SAP

    Hello Experts
    Here is a scenario with which i need some help.
    We sell products to various customers. Consider an example product - say ABC. The product ABC is sold to multiple retail customers. To improve our forecasting and planning accuracy we need to keep track of inventory of ABC that is available at our company premises as well as at the customers premises. We also have to distinguish the customers inventory from our inventory . While running MRP inventory at customer premises should also be taken into account .
    i have to set up something similar to example below in SAP
    product ABC - our locations  ---  total availability  1000 CS
    product ABC - customer location - total availability  500 CS (customer would send us inventory data via EDI )
    We have to distingusih our inventory from customer inventory (customer inventory will obviously not be available to promise to other customers). While running MRP the total stock available should be 1500 CS .
    How can i setup the above scenario ? I went through a lot of documentation and forum posts but did not get a clear understanding . Can you please help .
    Thanks

  • SAP B1 Required Inventory

    the definition of Required Inventory in SAP B1 Help is so vague that i cannot determine how to use it correctly - can someone explain how it will work - and how MRP will use it if at all vs. Minimum Inventory??

    Be careful with the MRP it can increase your inventory substantially if you don't monitor it line by line when reviewing the recommendation report. When you have 12,000 items it can be time consuming.
    The system considers this Required Stock Level when you issue Purchase Order
    *(But the MRP does not take in account the open purchase orders already entered if your S.O.'s  date(s) is outside of the window of Open P.O.'s already entered) *
    and suggests automatically the appropriate quantity missing in stock in order to match the required level.e.g. if the required stock level of a certain item is 10 units but you currently have only 4 units of this item in your warehouse then when you select this items in a Purchase Order the system will automatically suggests 6 unit to be purchased.

  • Post to GL bypass SAP Physical inventory

    Hi,
    User had an external system that are able to perform the full stocktake of a external warehouse.
    Can the external system post back only the qty variance to SAP thru creation of article document?
    We do not want to create any physical inventory document in SAP.
    External system >> post to SAP >> generate article document >> GL account
    Thanks

    I think "article document " should be read as material document.
    usually movements can be posted with BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE
    However, here it is explained that this BAPI cannot be used for inventory movements
    I did not try it myself as I never had a situation like yours, I always want to see the full inventory in SAP, hence I would use MB_POST_INV_DOCUMENT to create inventory document along with posting the count as already suggested in an older post which has as well the coding of the finally used report

  • Obsolete / Inactive Items/ Inventory Report

    When we have an item that we no longer need to purchase, we go to the product, under the purchasing tab and change the status from active to inactive. We also change the status on the sales tab when the product is obsolete and we can no longer sell it. Is there way to get a report that shows all the products that we have with the status of inactive? If not, how does everyone else manage their aged/obsolete inventory in SAP by Design?
    thanks
    Kari

    Gordon
    I am not sure why on one hand you indicate that it is not that difficult to write the report for ourselves, yet say that there are too many variables. These seem to be contradictory statements.
    It seems that since this would be of common benefit to nearly all SAP B1 customers, SAP would want to add it as a future release level report.
    I understand that there are cost variables, but why couldn't there be a pull down menu to select the price table such as with the Inventory In Warehouse Report? In that report, the user is given the option to assign the desired price source.
    Again, it seems as if this would be of common benefit and is worthy of SAP resources.

  • SAP Implementation for POULTRY business need inputs

    Hi all,
    I would like to know is any possible way to implement SAP to a POULTRY business covering SAP CWM (Catch Weight Management) functionalities (like, dual unit of measure, Inventory Accounting (SAP SEM) & Inventory Mgmt (LIME)) without implementing CWM.
    Please let me know if any one of you worked on this kind of requirement.
    Any input is welcome.
    T&R,
    Suresh

    Hi Suresh,
    I'm not worked with CWM but what I know is that CWM is a business function, IS-CWM.
    As I understand is that you need to activate IS-CWM in your system to get the functionalities that you want. I didn't know any other way.
    You can find some information in the help:

  • Inventory: Movement after count with post date before the count date.

    Hi,
    We have stock movements all the days of the week.
    We conduct physical inventories on Sunday mornings. There are not stock movements on Sunday mornings (stock movements on Sunday starts at night).
    Usually we create the SAP Physical Inventory Document on Fridays, assigning Saturday as the Planned Count Date.
    We enter the SAP Physical Inventory Count on Sunday (at the end of the count) or on Monday.
    How you recommend us to use SAPu2019s Physical Inventory feature in order to calculate the Book Inventory considering all stock movements with posting date less than or equal to Saturday?
    Please, suggest us a solution that If we register a movement after we enter the count but with post date before the count date (and the count is not posted yet), the Book inventory is modified accordingly.
    Thanks in advance for your support!!

    SAP takes the book inventory in the moment you enter the count.
    Best you set  block movements , this block will be removed automatically when you enter the count. So you can prevent users from posting until you have entered the count.
    If you set the freeze book inventory, then SAP takes the book inventory in the moment you create the document.
    This is not a good way if you still have movements after inventory document creation and actual count.
    You have to make sure - organisational  wise, outside SAP - that all movements that happened before inventory count  are posted before you start entering the count. There is nothing in SAP that can help you in this case.

  • About Physical Inventory

    Hi all,
    What is Physical Inventory?
    What are the different types of physical inventory processes does SAP support?
    Thanks in advance.
    Bhasker.

    Hi
    Physical Inventory is nothing but You are verifing your Actual Stocks with your Book inventory Stocks...
    Various Types of Physical Inventory in SAP..
    1)Periodic Inventory Counting
        Here you use to Verify your all stocks on Balance Sheet Key Date....In Indian Scenario, they use to Verify stocks on Every Quarter..
    2)Continuous Inventory Counting
       Here According to the company procedure......some high value materials they use to count continuously....for eg. every month end
    3) Inventory Sampling
    Here instead of verifing the whole stock....they use to check randomly and based on that random count check,they arrive the result....but it may not give correct result always...
    You can use foll. transactions for Physical Inventory in SAP
    MI01------> Create Phy.Inv. Doc
    MI21 -
    > Take Printout of Phy.Inv. Doc
    MI04----
    > Enter Count results
    MI07----
    > Post Difference
    MI11-------> Recount
    Always note Phy.Inv. will be carried out at Storage location level only....
    if you have same material lyeing at different sto.loc....then you have to create diff. Phy. Inv. Document for each Sto.Loc.
    Hope this whould have given some fair idea about Physical Inventory
    Reward if useful

  • Stop Availability checking in SAP

    Hi all,
    We have a situation where we do "not" want availability checking to look at any MRP elements or inventory in SAP.
    I created a new checking rule where ATP will not look at the MRP elements, and this works fine, BUT ATP will still confirm a Sales order on todays date if inventory is available.
    We need to have all sales orders confirm 10 work days from the date of order entry.
    Please advise how to make sales orders confirm 10 workdays from date of sales order creation.
    Appreciate your help!
    Paul

    Hi Paul
    If availability check should not take place then  in MMR dont maintain Availability check , in MRP tab .Secondly as you want to confirm sales order after 10 days then maintain Lead Time in Days feild in VOV8 as 7 days and in shipping point maintain 3 days then system will confirm the delivery date after 10 days only.But make sure that you are keeping RLT, feild blank  in MMR data
