Negative stock indicator-MRP

Hi All,
Material is maintained in sloc 1000 and 1001 and storage location 1001 is set for negative stock.
Due to goods issue there negative stock entry created in 1001 and MRP is creating planned for the same qty.
How to prevent this?
For example;
Stock in Sloc 1001 = -5 EA.
Planned order = 5 EA
Thanks.

Yes, Sloc 1000 is excluded from MRP. Mvt Type 601 happened from 1001 thatsy got negative in there. I had idea that there is no way net req calc can exlclude negative stock but just wanna check if there is any logic which I am not aware of??
What's the sense of doing net rquirement calculation w/o considering the real stock level in the system = how can you do net requirement calculation without considering the stock level in the system ???
I think you should only understand what net requirement calculation is.

Issue while creating negative stocks

Hello,
I have done the requirement setting for negative stocks in system in OMJ1 for plant 1000 ans storage location 0001. Also i have maintained indicator negative stocks in plant in material master. Now when i am trying to issue goods by 201 movement it is giving me error "deficit of quantity in storage location"" Actually it should allow to do negative stock posting with these settings. Please guide me if i am missing anything.
Regards,
Priyanka

There must be an inconsistency between your customizing setting and master data entry and the movement, as there is in general not more that need to be done as you already said, it seems to be equal to what is documented in Allowing Negative Stocks - Inventory Management and Physical Inventory (MM-IM) - SAP Library
So can you post the customizing and material master.

Issue with Negative Value for Total valuated stock 0VALSTCKQTY.

Hi Experts,
we loaded the Cube with datasources 2LIS_03_BX, 2LIS_03_BF and 2LIS_03_UM.
We mapped the quanity field from 2LIS_03_BF in transformation either into Key figures "Quantity issued from valuated stock" (0ISSVALSTCK) or "Quantity received into valuated stock" (0RECVALSTCK ) of the cube.
For obtaining the Total Valuated stock, we used the Key figure 0VALSTCKQTY. This key figure is having the Inflow and Out flow values as 0RECVALSTCK and 0ISSVALSTCK. When i tried to check the content of 0VALSTCKQTY, the key figure 0VALSTCKQTY is not present in the infoCube content. I understood that the value for this key figure would be calculated at the time of query execution with the formula
{ Last obtained Valuated stock + (Received Valuated Stock u2013 Issued Valuated Stock ) }.
The issue is the first records in the query is obtained with negative value for the total valuated stock 0VALSTCKQTY even though the values of Received Valuated Stock and Issued Valuated Stock are with Zero. Could any one please help me on how the first record in the query is with a negative value eventhough the inflow and out flow fields of it are with Zero.
Many Thanks in advance.

Hi Srini,
I observed an interresting reason for the stock being with negative in the first record.
Issue : While executing the BEx report, we have the first record with a negative value.
Let me explain with an example
Material : XYZ
Plant      : A
Date of Stock Initialization for data source 2LIS_03_BX -
> 12th April 2009.
So on 12 Th April 2009 consider that we have a stock in store with a value of 2640.
Then we have loaded wih Data source 2LIS_03_BF for all Historic Movement types.
At the time of query execution we will have the first record with a negative of available stock present on the day of initialization .
So, as we have initilized the data source 2LIS_03_BX on 12 th April 2009, we have at that time a stock of 2640 in availability.
Exactly with the same value of 2640, we are having a negative value i.e. -2640.
and also one more point to be noted is ...as we have initialized the data source 2LIS_03_BX on 12 th APril 2009...it has created a
opening balance of 2640 on the day of initiailization i.e on 12 th April 2009 in infocube....(which is an extra record...)...so if the previous record of 12,04,2009 is having some value in it..then it will get added to 2640 EA..which will give incorrect stock
So in the query the records will appear in the below following manner
Calendar Day     Total stock                                                                Received stock                                          Issued Stock
28.12.2005 ---> - 2640 EA
29.12.2005 --->    2000 EA                                                                       640 EA                                                        0
10.04.2009 --->      0                                                                                0                                                               2000 EA
11.04.2009 -
>    0                                                                                0                                                                0
                             (For making
                              the earlier record of initilization to 0 a negative value -2640 EA is created in the first record )
12.04.2009 (Initializtion day) ---> 2640 EA                                                 0                                                                0
13.04.2009
the day before initialization the total stock will be 0 due to the negative effect introduced by the first record and from the day of initialization the records will be the accurate values... On 12 th april 2009 we can see that a stock of 2640 is brought into the total stock. In fact if there is no negative value i.e. -2640 in the first record then ...the value on 11.04.2009 will be 2640 Ea and this will get summed up with the Opening balance of 2640 EA created by 2LIS_03_BX on the day of intitialization. So on 12 .04. 2009 the total stock will be shown as 5280 EA...so in order to prevent the double value only we observed that the first record is created with the negative of available stock present on the initialization ...to make the record before the day of initialization i.e. 11.04.2009...to be 0...so that from 12 th April 2009 ..will start to see the actual total stock in the query result...
This is happening only if we use both the data sources 2LIS_03_BX and 2LIS_03_BF for loading into BW.....
If we load alone by 2LIS_03_BF ...then as 2LIS_03_BX is ruled out in the loading...then no negative of available stock will be created ...because there will be bno opening balance created on the day of initialization.....and the opeing balance available will be flowing into consecutive records due to the movement types and 12 th April 2009 will be shown with avaialable total stock of 2640 EA.
Kindly let us know your opinions on this...
Thanks.

A) Negative Stock setting-valuation area b) Goods issue account during 201

Hi,
a) where can i find the setting for the "Negative Stock - valuation area", I beleive this is different from the plant storage location setting for negative stock and needs to be activated first.
b) I am doing a goods issue 201 aginst the cost center.Is there a way of finding the correct cost center.
Thanks
Rajiv

Hi
where can i find the setting for the "Negative Stock - valuation area", I beleive this is different from the plant storage location setting for negative stock and needs to be activated first.
You can find this in OMJ1 Transaction, apart from this in the Plant parameters also you can flag the Negative stokcs for Special stocks.
b) I am doing a goods issue 201 aginst the cost center.Is there a way of finding the correct cost center.
In OKB9 maintain the defulat cost center for the G/L account used for posting the Goods issue to cost center.
You can find the G/L account attached in OBYC, GBB transaction & genaral modifier VBR, valuation class of the material
Thanks & Regards

PRD is not triggering in Negative Stocks allowed scenario

I am trying to do Subcontracting process with Negative Stocks allowed for the final material and raw materials even & all of them are checked for negative stocks allowed. When I am trying to issue, say 10 units of materials to SC Vendor with ZERO stocks in storage, the stock's updating accordingly as 10-, but while doing MIGO for say 5 units, the stock's updating accordingly, but in FI documents so created, the PRD key is missing. I read bout PRD and it states : Price differences can also arise in the case of materials with moving average price if there is not enough stock to cover the invoiced quantity. In the case of goods movements in the negative range, the moving average price is not changed. Instead, any price differences arising are posted to a price difference account. Depending on the settings for the posting rules for transaction/event key PRD, it is possible to work with or without account modification. If you use account modification, the following modifications are available in the standard system. So, what steps are to be taken in order to trigger PRD key in the FI Documents.

Yes its correct.. At the time MIRO, if any price difference occurs, then first system checks stock is available or not.. If stock is there then system will take the amount from stock account, if not, then system take the amount in PRD account...
But here you have activated negative stock. I think because of this your stock account triggered instead of PRD account..
Can you check and analysis the accounting entry, where the price different amount goes ?

Items with zero stock quantity show negative stock value in Stock reports

When running Stock reports for controlling the stock value towards the GL accounts, some items appear with zero stock quantity, but the report still shows a stock value (negative value in my case)
How can this happen, and how can I correct this situation ?
System parameters are : negative stock is not allowed, Items with zero cost price not allowed. On item level average cost price method is used.
P.K.Johnsen

Hi Johnsen,
I believe you have checked the" Manage Inventory by warehouse". I have noticed this issue in SAP B1 2005B but this is rectified in 2007B. The system behaves in this way as the system maintains item cost for the item for all warehouses and even if the stock is not present in the warehouse, the system would still show you a value for the same. Hope this helps. please search the forum. You'll find related threads.
Thanks,
Joseph

Negative Stock in MB5B

Hii,
When i execute the mb5b for stock on posting date system is showing the negative stock.
For Eg:
Stock of one material is showing me as -50 No's as on Posting date 10.02.2008
In MB51
GR 101 for 100 No's on 29.02.2008 with Entry date: 29.02.2008
GI 201 for 50 No's on 10.02.2008 ( it is showing me as -50 No's but stock was not there at material level on 10.02.2008) with Entry date 01.03.2008
User has changed the posting date as 10.02.2008, which the entry date is 01.03.2008.
So, System is not considering the stock when it was received. In case of non batch managed materials why system is behaving like this ??
Is there any standard feature to control it ??
Please suggest!
Kumar

Hi,
Whatever example u have given is nothing but a negative stock.
In SPRO-> Financial accounting> Global settings,there is setting for company code where we can decide whether to allow negative stocks or not by selecting the block.
In that if we select it, then we can issue the material before receiving it.Ultimately it will show negative stock. And as soon as you receive the material, it will become positive.
I've tried my best to explain, try this.
Reward points, if found helpful.

Good issue (601) before stock exist (101) can be executed ?

Dear SAP Expert,
i have situation in my user, for example :
1. we have GR (101) CBU for ready to sale in posting date 11/03/2011
2. and the user want to sale that CBU in 10/03/2011
3. when i check MB5B, stock on posting date. stock only exist in 11/03/2011 and in 10/03/2011 no stock exit
4. and when user try to post GI in 10/03/2011, the transaction successfully (even though no schedule lines in SO for 10/03/2011, the user directly post via VL02N)
5. when i check MB5B, stock 10/03/2011 Begin 0, end -1 and stock 11/03/2011 Begin -1, end 0 (GR 1)
the question is it possible GI even though no stock in stock poting date 10/03/2011. note : 11/03/2011 is my system date and last stock = 1
can anyone help for this issue
Thanks for your help
Regards
Budhi

Hi Kapil,
thanks for your answer,
for this issue i'm try to simulate via MB1A with sales order consumption. when GI with VL02N document date and posting date are different (document date 11.03.2011 and posting date 10.03.2011). so comes my newbie conclusion
1. is it possible in SD, inventory movement based on document date
A : nope .. i try with same date via MB1A (document date : 10.03.2011 and posting date : 10.03.2011)
2. is it possible negative stock in my config permitted
A : i already check in that plant no negative value permitted
3. last of my thought, in SD will confirm stock only by current date and the future (estimated available). because in actual the stock already exist. so i confirm with my CO consultant, if problem will appear for GR finish good and consumption component in 11.03.2011 and GI in 10.03.2011 (still waiting this answer).
so based your answer i think it solve my answer as long no more valid commentary.
and again thank for your help

NEGATIVE STOCK

Dear All,
We are facing a problem on a particular date stock of some materials is showing in negative
because issue qty is greater than receipt and stock qty.
How it is possible that material is issued even if it is not in the stock.
is it configuration error ?
We want if stock is not available system should not allow issuing.
We dont want that any material stock goes in negative.
Please help.

Awnindra Dutt Tiwary

Do you face that problem only in a certain report or is your stock really negative?
In standard settings SAP does not allow to post into negative stock, you have to allow this in customizing for a plant and then in material master for the material.
But I feel you are doing a analysis based on posting dates used. And here SAP does not really check as hard as you may want.
SAP checks only whether there is enough stock right now (or in the period you are posting).
So if oneposts the goods receipt with a slightly wrong date e.g.Aug. 4th while it physically was received on Aug. 2nd.
And later the consumption posting was done with goods issue date Aug. 3rd.
So the physical sequence of posting never lead to negative stock.
But if you analyse stock per date e.g. in MB5B then you may get a negative stock for Aug. 3rd.
But how will you restrict SAP to not allow to post a goods receipt with the current date (if it was received physically 2 days earlier). You just cannot. Option left: teach your users well.

Negative stock caused by vl06g for consingment stock W

Hi Gurus,
We are facing following problem in our company.
When we post collectively goods issues for consignment stock (W) for previous period thorugh transaction VL06G, system lets negative stock while it shouldn't.
When we post GI for current period everything works fine - system doesn't let us proceed GI if we don't have enough stock.
Below listed our settings:
1. we didn't allow negative stock in valuation area- OMJ1,
2. availability check of item category KAN (consingment pick-up) is on,
3. in material master- in "Sales/General:Plant" View, negative stock is not ticked.
Thank you

Hi,
As Jürgen said price can't be negative. You need to correct MAP first before posting the invoice. Try running consistency check (Tcode: MB5K) you might know the reason why system is showing -ve moving average price and then you can correct.

Rakesh

Negative stock allowed for a material with SDG assigned

Hi All ,
I have raw material for which stock determination group assigned in MRP 2 view for issuing the componets .
I also marked allow negative stock in plant/storage location view .
Normally if the stock determination group is not assigned and if the negative stock allowed in plant/storagelocation is checked then during backflush though the required qunatity is not availabe then the stock will be marked in negative quantities , so that when GR happens for this material will overcome the negative quantity .
But since stock determination group is assigned , though the negative stock allowed is checked the backlogs are created in MF47 rather making the stock of the material negative [ I assume this behaviour is because the SDG is determined dynamically ]
Is there any setting required to not sit these backlogs in MF47 when the negative stock allowed in plant/storagelocation is checked
Thanks
Sireesha

Hello Sireesha,
Even I have similar issue, can you please let me know if this is fixed for and how did it work.

Implications that we could have if we allow Negative Stock in SAP

Hi Gurus.
Can I have in details the Implications that we could have if we allow Negative Stock in SAP please ?
Thanks
Nainar

Hi Nainar,
Implications in the sense, if you try to issue more stock than the existing. System pop up an error message that insufficient stock.
If you activate the Negitive stock then the system allows you to issue the stock.
Ex : Suppose ur company has power cut and u use generator at the time of power cuts.Now that u use diesel for generator, if suppose u have stock physically avaliable in ur plant and u didnt enter the GR(not avaliable in system). At this point u have to issue the diesel to run generator, hence system will show you negitive stock(-ve quantity) the amount u have issued. Later when u enter GR, it will tally issed quantity.
To activate Negitive stock at plant level, follow the path
SPRO>MM>Inventory Management and Physical Inventory>GI/Transfer Postings->Allow negative stock.

Krishna
