Material stock to be posted to restricted stock( urgent please)

Hi genius,
This is below my scenario, Please let me the solution .
1. Material to be received thro GR ( MIGO ) and which has to be posted to unrestricted stock.
2. Material will be reserved by the users as on when required thro MB21 T.Code.
3. Reservation does not allow the reservation qty over the quantity available present in unrestricted stock.
4. New Reservation should not allow to create more than available qty. which is taken into the account of already reserved.
5. Consumption should be blocked on actual objective.
6. Plant control/Indented items should be put to restriction on issuance only to indented department.
7.Less impact on account inventory qty and value reconciliation.
Please find anyother solution , Let me know, I am eagarly waiting for your valuable reply,
Regards
Jeya

Hi
1. Through movement type 101, stock will be posted as unrestricted stock.
2. Reservation is created via MB21 only
3 You are defeating the logic of reservation if in you scenario reservation should not exceed the quantity available in stock. If you are running MRP, it will take the reservation into a/c and if any deficit in stock in there it will draw an PR for the same.
4 Same answer as point 3
5 You can restrict consumption against reservation.
6 You can control this thru reservation.
7 Its matter od discipline.

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,

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.

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.

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.

T code ls24 negative stock

Hi Experts,
In t code LS24 in some batches i am having purely negative stock. How to remove this stock? Kindly explain me.
Thank you
Sap MM

Hi,
Do you mean that at WH level (considering all storage types) your stock level is negative from certain batches? Are you sure?
Please check your stock level in MB52 for the storage location that is assigned to your WH.
1.
If stock level from batch is negative in IM too, that means you allowed negative stock for the valuation area / sLoc & material:
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/EN/a5/63313343a211d189410000e829fbbd/frameset.htm
If this is the case you can eliminate the negative stock in IM by posting stock to your SLoc (GR). After that you can eliminate the "local" negative quant in WM by moving the positive quant to the negative by LT01 / LT10.
2.
If stock level in MB52 is not negative, it means you have a corresponding positive quant in your WH. By moving it to the negative quant via LT10 / LT01 you can eliminate the negative quant.
(it can also happen that there's a bug in the system but I don't think so - in this case you should use LX23 and suitable OSS notes)

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.

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.
Thanks

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.

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
LGNUM     LQNUM     MATNR              WERKS     CHARG     LGTYP     LGPLA
402     11612844     037109119C     402     DOMS     999     REFUSALS
402     11612845     037109119C     402     DOMS     999     REFUSALS
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
Pavan

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)
source storage section - 001 (Total section)
storage bin - 16-03-69 and pressed enter
I get the error ' Storage type 003 does not allow negative stock figures'.
How to overcome the error?Please advise.
Thanks&Regards
MSReddy

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.

Problem in putting the query condition for negative stocks.............

Hi,
I am applying condition to display negative stocks.
Situation is like In the columns , I have key figure stock quantity and stock status(QI , blocked etc)
Accordning to the stock status column is created and all the materials are displayed for that status.
I have put condition on stock quantity to display only the negative stocks.
The result of the report is ok but in one case it is displaying stock qnty 1(positive stock) as well as the negative qnty for that material for different QI status.
I am not able to understant why this positive value is getting displayed in the report when I have put the condition , stock < 0 .
It is happening for only one material whose batch number is same and storage location is also same. But positive value is surpirsing me.
Please let me know if somebody has solution or idea how to solve this situation.
Thanks,

STO Stock in transit Negative stock

Hi
In Intercompany STO (2 step)
In Circumstances like, GR posted by recieving plant before the shipping plant make GI, the stock in transit in MMBE appears as Negative stock under Stock in TransitCC.
Can help to understand in detail please.
thanks
RG

HI,
In this case, the negative indiactor indicates that, in-transit there is a no stock and hence it shows the negative sign.. If GI happens first, then MB5T will show the +Ve value. If GR happens first then it will show the negative and once GI posted it will be nullified.
We can automate in such a way that, an out put needs to be triggered from the GI document which will post the GR for the STO.

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....

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).

Mangal
