Outgoing excise invoice doc no series

Question

Dear All
My scenario is as follows.
A)After manufacturing of goods I am sending the Finished goods to my branch office/depot which is out side the state in following ways.
1. I am doing one stock transfer.
2. an outgoing excise invoice.
From branch office/depot we are selling the finished goods with vat or cst. Sometimes Finished goods are comming back from depot due to quality or some other reason. here My problem starts.....
as this is excisable goods how I will take cenvat credit. how to do a incomming excise invoice based on stock transfer.I am using sap 2007B PL-17.
B)After manufacturing of goods I am sending the Finished goods to my branch office/depot which is out side the state in following ways.
1. I am doing one stock transfer.
2. an outgoing excise invoice.
The problem with doc series no case 1: when we will sale excise goods to customer then an outgoingexcisable invoice & a/r invoice will be created and doc no is also generated where case 2:if goods transfer from fatcory to branch then an stock transfer and outgoingexcisable invoice is created, here there is problem at doc no series,client is using same doc no series for A/R invoice and outgoing excise invoice so if assign same in doc numbering but when in case of 1 & 2 there cannot be continous no for outgoing because u will rasie outgoing invoice for both sales & tranfer,but a/r invoice will raasie only for sale to customer then a number diff will come between outgoing inovice & a/r invoice.Even I suggest client to create two doc no series for outgoing invoice one is sale to customer other transfer to branch.
So can anybody pls give solution.

Answer 1

Hi,
1. You Manufacture goods at your factory
2. These goods are transferred to the Branch office. Here a STN ( stock Transfer Note) is created and an outgoing Excise is created where you need to take the To Warehouse to be the branch Office
3. For this you correspondingly create the Incoming Excise invoice by taking the From warehouse as Factory. Here the Cenvat credit is recorded and correspondingly the RG registers are updated.
4. Suppose the Branch Office returns the goods then again a STN is created for  which the Outgoing Excise is to be created first having to warehouse as Factory and IEI where the from warehouse to be Branch office. Here again the RG registers will getr updated and Cenvat credits will get reversed.
Now as far as the Documnet Numbering Series is concerned .......the OEI and the IEI creation will have to be created whenever STN and A/R Invoices are created. Please note that you need create the OEI and the IEI for an item only once . If you have transferred goods from Factory to Branch office then the OEI and the IEI created here will be enough ....you need not create the OEI  again while invoicing to the final customer from the Branch office.
What it effectively means is that since you are creating the Excise invoices ( OEI and the IEI) based on both ST and Direct Invoices ( Directly invoicing to the customer from factory) the OEI series and the A/R invoice series will never be the same.
