Material Revaluation with negative stock

Good Afternoon,
Iu2019m working with negative stock, standard valuation method and item cost by warehouse in SAP B1 2007 SP01 PL08.
I need to update the standard cost of all items and I'm trying to do that using the Stock Revaluation Transaction but I have the error message: u201CItem XXXXX has been selected with a negative stock quantity and cannot be revaluedu201D and u201CSelected items cannot have a negative quantityu201D. There is any option to work around these messages and update the standard cost?
Thank you,
Susana Cunha

Hi Senthil,
I don't know how could you so sure about Negative inventory management is a bug in SBO. You know, there is not much you can do once the inventory become negative. SAP allows it happen simply because some one may not or may not have a way to care about the accuracy of the inventory. The best way is setting to not allow it. The negative inventory is never logical for any applications to MANAGE them.
Thanks,
Gordon

Material Type and Negative Stock Problem

Dear All SAP Experts,
Please provide suitable solution for the following business scenario to avoid negative stock continuously and which material type should we select for the material mentioned below:
GAS Supplying Company (Main Source)
Client - GAS Trading Company
Material GAS supply through Pipe Lines
Purchases - GAS from main source treated, received as single material for purchase point of view
Trading Good GAS supply to different type of customers, different purposes, different rates, different segments and different billing cycles for sales point of view
Consumption 1.Based on meter reading at Main Source point for purchase quantity on daily basis.
2.Based on meter reading at different customer locations, different purposes, different segments, different rates, different meter reading cutoff cycles and different billing cycles.
Main source company raise invoice with different rates on client fortnightly based on the consumption for different type of customers, different purposes in different segments. i.e. for domestic purposes one rate, industrial purposes another rate etc.
How to provide reading figures fortnightly to main source company, how to check consumption and if at all any negative stock in MM how to avoid negative stock in SAP?

As the scenario is describes material should be Pipeline material....and further for this material type....
Genrally for price of pipeline material :You determine the price of a pipeline material from a vendor in a pipeline info record. You can only post pipeline movements after you have created the pipeline info record.
So for different vendor different prices will come into picture....
I dont think pipeline material will have negitive stock....

Subcontarcting PO with negative stock of consumed material

hello experts,
I have following scenario.
I am a working in a hosiery company.I have to supply all my accessories like cut piece ( cotton ), level, wash instruction,logo to my vendor (maker) . And my vendor have to delivered me a finished goods. So it is nothing but a subcontracting scenario.
but if all my accessories is not with me (go down /stock),so is it possible to make a SUBCONTRACTING PO.
suppose I want to make 1200 pieces of finish goods.and for each finish goods I need one logo,i.e 1200 logo.
but I have only 1000 logo with me. So in that case how can it possible to make a subcontracting PO of 1200 pieces.
because it is asking deficit of 200 pieces logo in stock.
So can any body tell me how to overcome this scenario.

Hi
You can create the SC PO even if you donot have stock of the Components.
If you donot have enough cpmpnents issued to the vendor then you will be able to do the GR & Consumption posting of for the materials that are in stock.
As you have siad 1000 Components are available & 200 not availbale. So you can make GR of 1000 items only.
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 ?

LQ02 - Transfer Posting in IM - *Bin wih positive and Negative Stock*

Hi All,
I've a problem with LQ02, when i've executed this transaction for Block STock category S, it is updating the BIN with Nagative and Positive Qty. (For the same material/Batch/Warehouse/Plant)
Here is the example data from LQUA

If I see LS24/LX03 i see two entries one with positive stock and one with negative stock, but in this case it should match and no records should be dispalyed.
Please let me know what changes i need to do?
Thanks in advance

Reg: Negative Stock

Hii,
How does negative stocks works in SAP, here in Material Master for a selected material in plant 1000 and SL 0001, i have checked on negative stock option in Plant/ Storage 2 view.
while issuing the stock in MIGO, it is not allowing and it is givng an error with deficit qty not allowed.
Can u pls guide me, how does it should make it work.
Thanks
Regards,
Muralidharan

Hi muralidharan ,
A negative stock occurs when you post a goods issue(GI) witha quantity that is larger than the book inventory.Negative stock balances may be required if,for organizational reasons,you enter goods issue before the coreesponding goods receipts,and the material is already physically located in the warehouse.Negative stocks always indicate that physical movments have to be entered in the system at the later stage.
So that you can work with negative stock inSAP system,you have to specifically allow this in customizing for the affected material.In Customizing for inventory mangerment,you will find the settings for negative stock under Goods issue/Transfer postings>Allow Negative stocks..The path for this is
SPRO>Materials mangement>Inventory management and physical inventory>Goods issue/Transfer postings>Allow negative stocks
Negative stocks are allowed at valuation area level and storage location level.At plant level,you can set the special stocks for which negative stocks is allowed.
For example the special stocks for which negative stock is allowed are
>Vendor consignment
>Stock of material provided to vendor
>Consignment stock at customer
>Sales order stock
>Project stock
>Returnable packaging with customer
>Returnable transport packaging
If you have negative stock for a material ,this is shown in the material master record on the accounting view,the plant stock view,and the storage location stock view.The negative stock is also displayed in the stock lists.
To determine for which materials you have negative stocks,use the warehouse stock for material report.From SAP Easy acess screen,choose Logistics>Materials management>Inventory management>Environment>Stock>Warehouse stock(MB52)
You can execute the selection,for example,for several materials for a storage location that allows negative stocks.So that only the materials with negative stocks are displayed,choose the Only display negative stocks indicator on the selection screen.
Hope this will help you
Reward if useful

Allow negative stock on storage location

Dear all,
When we allow negative stock on a storage location. At posting time we have an error "deficit stock of batch assignment". Anybody got a clue of what has to be done to correct this ???
Cheers,
Olivier

Dear Oliver,
Please do the following checks.
Prerequisites
To work with negative stocks, you have to:
· explicitly allow this in the Customizing system for each valuation area and storage location
· set the indicator Neg. stocks in plant in the material master record of the individual materials (storage data)
Negative stocks are allowed for special stocks if you have activated negative stocks in the valuation area and for the special stock concerned in the plant. You do not need to activate negative stocks in each material master record.
Procedure
You can define whether you want to allow negative stock by making the relevant settings for each storage type in Customizing.
To do this, choose Logistics Execution -- Warehouse Management--- Interfaces -- Inventory Management -
Allow Negative Stocks in Interim Storage Types --- Allow negative stock for each storage type in the Implementation Guide (IMG).
When the allow negative stock indicator is set, the system lets you post negative quants to the corresponding storage type.
Additionally, you can define whether you want the system to issue an error message (E) or a warning message (W) or no message (blank) when posting negative stock. You can make the relevant setting in the activity Control of System Messages in Warehouse Management. You can determine the notification type using the parameter MSV in the user master record.
To do this, choose System --- User profile --- Own data.
Then select the tab page Parameters.
Enter MSV in the Parameters field and enter the value with which you want to group certain users in the value field (for example 01).
Choose Logistics Execution ® Warehouse Management ® Interfaces ® Inventory Management ® Allow Negative Stocks in Interim Storage Types ® Control of System Messages in Warehouse Management in the Implementation Guide (IMG).
Create a new entry with the version number (Value) you have chosen and enter the desired system reaction in the Message Category field (E, W, or blank).

Cancel M/t Doc with Quality Stock

Dear All,
I am facing the problem in cancellation of material document with Quality Stock.
I am explaining my scenario, when GR is posted the stock directly comes to Quality stock because, QM is activated.After that QM users release the quality plan in QA32.Then, u know it comes to Un-restriced stock.After that inventory person trying to cancel this material document in MIGO(cancellation) transaction, but the system not allowing to post.So, what we are doing, cancel in MB01 transaction with respect to PO itself in that case, we are manually removing the "X'indicator for quality stock when we posting.
But, in purchase order history, its showing the 102 Mvt.type.But, its not showing in J1iex(Posted-101) document flow (cancel-102) not showing for item wise Excise data.Part-1 entries not all cancelling with respect to excise.
I also check the scenario of GR - Quality Stock & Cancel(MIGO) - Quality stock. the J1iex document flow correctly updating..
But, the GR - Quality Stock, Cancel(MB01) - Un-restricted Stock, J1iex document flow not all updating..
Please resolve my issue experts!!!
From sas..

Hello,
It is std SAp functionality in CIN.
The part1 entries will get cancelled only if the material document is cancelled through transaction MIGO - Cancellation.
It won't get updated if you are using MBST or MB01/MIGO with 102 movement type.
Once QC has released the stock, it is not possible to cancel the material document through MIGO-Cancellation.
But for that, what you can do is that cancel the Usage decision (UD) done through QA32. Check the below SAP Notes for UD reversal logic.
33924 - Reversing usage decisions
175842 - Inspection lot: Reversal of goods movements from UD

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.

Production order with negative amount for settlement in to Material for MAP

Hi All,
When I am trying to settle some production orders, it is giving me an error "Moving average price for material is negative" and doesnot let me settle them. we have maintained our materials at MAP and settle our production order variances to material to adjust its MAP. In these orders, it is trying to settle negative value, which is greater than the total value of the stock of materials and if settled leaving some of the stock with negative value. does any body has this situation and what would be the solution for this ?
Thanks
MKR

Hi,
This is Pavan Fronm IBGroup Rajnandgaon.
To My Knowledge,
When U Settle the Production Order, the Diffence Between the Target cost and Actual cost(MAP) of Finished Material hits the Material Account of the finished goods.
Say Suppose,
Target cost (Production Cost) =   Cost of Raw material + consumable,   = 10
                                                Activity ( Labour, Power, etc)              =    5
                                                Overheads.                                        =    2
                                                                                17
Actual Cost is ur Finished Material (MAP). = 18
CASE 1:
Now the system calculate the difference as 17 - 18 = -1 Rs , it try to reduce from Material Cost,
Now in case if Material has the stock say 1 unit.
it will reduce the cost of material by 1 rs in Material Master.
If the Material has no stock , as we know the system try to reduce the cost from zero stock tends to
give us a message saying
MOVING AVERAGE PRICE OF MATERIAL IS NEGATIVE.
CASE 2:
If Target - Actual is say +1 RS it increases the material price to 1 Rupee, if stock is Zero , then 1 Rupee
hits the Price Difference
CASE 3: *STANDARD PRICE INDICATOR*
In case of Standard Price indicator Every thing beyone the Material Price , whether respect to negative
variance or positive variance hits the price difference.
So I request u to settle the order if u use MAP for Finished goods befor dispatch of finished good to calculate actual production cost for ur finished material..
We can Also use MR21 for price change if the stock has dispatched befor settlement, but it is not suggestable to my knowledge hence ur material wont carry actual production cost if that is thae case.
Please Correct if I m Wrong.

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.
Jeswanth

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.
regards,
Jeswanth

Material showing negative stock

All SAP Gurus,
For one the material system is showing negative stock.
We have checked the material master record for this material, but the tick for 'allow negative stock' is not active for this material.
We have also checked the settings in OMJ1, there also 'Allow Negative stock' is not ticked.
Why this problem may be arising?
Regards,

Hi CBaba,
Thanks for the reply.
I'm talking about IM.
I have checked those settings, but ther is no problem with it (no tick in negative stock).
But system is showing the negative stock, on back date (not in todays date).
Where may be the problem?

Negative stock ('moving average price for material is negative')

Dear all,
I have a question with regards to negative stock.
Does it means if I configure my system (i.e. OMJ1) by allowing the negative stock for a particular plant, the problem of Invoice bumping the error (i.e. 'moving average price for material is negative') WILL NOT happen at all again?
If not, how can I solve this problem?
thanks.
tuffy

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.
