Negative stock indicator

Hi,
Can anyone tell me the path for negative stock indicator?
regards,

Hi sandeep,
In Customizing u can set up negative stock indicator
under Inventorymgmt &physical inventory> Goods issue/transfer posting> Allow negative stocks. U can set negative stocks at valuation area level or storage location level. In material master u can set them in General plant data/Storage2  data view.
Hope this helps. Reward if u find this info useful

  • 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.

  • Negative stock at vendor end location

    Hi all,
        Today I found a material showing negative stock in a vendor end location.
       Negative stock indicator flag is not  set for that material and negative stock setting also haven't made.
    The movement that led to negative stock is 543 O.
    I dont know how to solve this problem.
    Kindly advise me in this regard.

    Apparently negetive stock is allowed at this location. It is a setting in config. If you know the material document that caused it(use MB51), reverse that document using MIGO or MBST. As far as the setting is concerned, you need someone to change the setting if it should not be allowed.

  • 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

    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

  • Negative stock of material

    I have 1 outbound delivery. When we change the qty in delivery it gives error that
    only10.012 TO of mateirla 51600 available.
    We have activated negative stock at plant and storage location level in config. Also in material master sales view mateiral is maintained for negative stock.
    What can be the issue. If we do another goods receipt for materila 51600 & then try to goods issue as the stock is getting increased . It allowed it.
    Why this is happening as material is maintained for negative stock

    hi,
    negative stock indicator is used for when thier is no availability of stock .
    then we have to put the negative stock indicator in material master then we don't have the stocks also we have to go for the issue.
    THANKING YOU

  • 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).

  • Why 'Allow Negative Stock' doesnt go with put away strategy L

    Just a quick question
    Why Putaway Strategy L doesnt go with 'Allow Negative Stock'

    Hi,
    If you enter the putaway strategy L- system will finds the next empty bin where there is no quantiy or no quant.
    If you assign "allow negative stock indicator", if stock is not there (ex for goods issue / delivery) system will generate a negative stock with a negative quant.
    But while placing the new stock system will them neglect the bins with negative quantity (considering as quants), it will place it in the next empty bin.
    It contradicts the logicof negative stock check, so standard will not allow negative stock indicator for putway strategy L.
    thanks,
    JK

  • 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.

  • TRansfer Order - Negative stock figures

    Dear Friends:
    Using T.code LT03, I entered Warehouse no,plant,delivery and pressed enter
    In storage, I selected 003(open storage) and selected post
    In movement data, I entered the data
    source storage type: 003 (open storage)

    I get the error ' Storage type 003 does not allow negative stock figures'.
    How to overcome the error?Please advise.
    Thanks&Regards

    You need to activate negative posting allowed indicator at two levels:
    1. In the material master, in Plant data / stor 2 you have to tick the indicator Negative stocks allowed in plant
    2. In TCode OMJ1 allows negative stock allowed for each plant / storage location.

  • Negative stock and Stock below safety stock

    Hi,
    Both negative stock and stock below safety stock create procurement proposals - internal or external.
    But what is the difference between them?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    NEGATIVE STOCK:
       Negative stock function used when you want to post Goods Issue quantity that larger than the book quantity.
    For example: you have stock of material A000 = 90 qty and you want to Goods Issue with 100 qty.
    Negative stock function is not relevant for the procurement, It can only use for the excess qty issue to to the production than stock qty. System will not create PR .
    You need to do configuration setting to use this function.
    Cust: In customizing negative stock are must allow for a valuation area, Plant and Storage location level.
              In addition you can set the special stock at plant level such as
    Consignment
    Material provided to vendor
    consignment stock at customer
    sales order stock
    project stock
    returnable packaging with customer
    returnable transport packaging
    Application: The indicator for negative stock is with the storage data in the material master mast be maintained.
    Note: It is possible for unrestricted use and blocked stock only.
    With the standard price, There are no special features to the negative stock. But with the Moving average price , a price diff account can be posted to when goods are received.
    STOCK BELOW SAFETY STOCK.
    The Safety stock should cover any excess material consumption that may occur during the replenishment lead time as well as the normal requirements when deliveries delayed.
    The Safety stock is therefore part of reorder point.
    You do not required any special setting to use safety function. Just need to maintain the safety stock level in the material master.
    If stock reduce below safety stock, system will create procurement  proposal i.e Planned order or Purchase requisition.
    I hope it will clear your query.

  • How to end use omj1 i.e. negative stock customization

    dear gurus,
    how to end use omj1 i.e. negative stock customization
    thanks in advance

    Hi,
    Ideally not recommended.
    Still if you wish to go for it, follow the steps indicated below:
    1) Go to OMJ1 and select the box against the respective plant
    2) Also go to TCode OMSY, Tick the box "ABP" (Allow Back Posting) for your Company Code, so that you can control postings in the closed period.
    3) And finally, go to material master and select Plant data/ Storage2 view, tick the box "Neg. stocks in Plant".

  • 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 ?
