Blocked due to a physical inventory. Counts need to be entered.

Hello Experts,
I am trying to move from "stock provided to vendor" to unrestricted to write off. but the Error states blocked due to a physical inventory. Counts need to be entered.
I went into MI24 (See below) and there is actually a physical inventory doc that has not been counted from 2012. Is there any reason why I can't go in and enter actuals and close it out?
Thanks for your help in advance !

if you created the document with the option of freeze inventory, then the book stock is already captured and your difference between counted stock and book stock would be calculated based on book stock from 2012. Do you think this makes any sense?
Go MI02 and delete the document for which you never performed a physical count.
How can this happen that a physical count is forgotten? Don't you check for completeness when the day of phsical count comes to an end?.

Problem in Physical inventory cycle count

Hi Guys,
I m facing problem with the transaction MICN, report is RM07ICN1
This report works absolutely fine for "C" type indicators.(time interval is 2 years)
But when we try to run thw report for "B" type indicators(time interval is 1 year), I get incorrect outputs.
I have checked the table , so per day it should output 27 materials to be checked, but I get sometimes more than 1000 materials sometimes 50, sometimes 10 .
I cant resolve this issue .. The diffrence between the two indicators is the time interval.
Please help me out of this .

Physical Inventory vs. Cycle Counting

Hi Experts -
In the absence of the Cycle counting indicator and ABC Analysis is it safe to say that Cycle Counting is not a relevant scenario?
Physical inventory is different PI doc > Count > Recount > Clear differences.
What is the standard functionality if both the ABC and CC indicator is not set?
Thank you.

Hi Gary,
you are right if the CC indicator is not set in the material master then cycle count is not a relevant scenario. Cycle count is one of the method however you can define the system for Continuous count or Annual inventory in addition to both the option you can also activate
PlcmntInv(Continuous inventory upon placement into stock)
ZeroCkin (Continuous inventory based on zero stock check during removal of stock from bin)
The normal Physical inventory process is
Create & Activate a PI Doc (LI01N)---- Count (LI11N) / RecounT (LI14, if required)------Clear difference in WM(LI20) ---Clear difference in IM (LI21)
SPRO-----LE---WM ---ACTIVTIVES----PHYSICAL INVENTORY ------DEFINE TYPE PER STORAGE TYPE

Error while creating physical inventory document with zero count

Hi,
I am trying to create a physical inventory document for a material that has zero stock and that is not batch managed but I am geting an error as below.
"Item 001: No batches that can be included in phys. inv. exist.(Message no. M7701)"
This error occurs only for one or two materials.
I am able to create the physical inventory document for other materials which is also zero stock and there is no batch managed for the same.
Can anyone pls advice.
Regards,
Ramya

hi
if your material is split valuated, but not batch managed, then the split valuation type is shown in field batch number. And...it is a batch then.
To be able to do a zero count you have to have a batch record whose batch number is the valuation type.
If you never had stock in the storage location you want count, then you have to
1. extend the material to this storage location with MMSC
2. create the batch record with MSC1N for this storage location.

Not able to enter the count for physical inventory document in WM

Hi All,
I have created a Physical Inventory document using LX16 t-code (WM managed). Since the material and bin stock is zero and When I try to enter the count by ticking zero stock indicator using LI11 t-code, I am not able to save the document and system throws error "Finding empty Quants provided for" and message number is L4058.
Please let me know how to resolve this.
Regards
Krishnamurthy

Yes your understanding is correct but only thing I have not entered qty in the count field rather I set only zero stock indicator.
My requirement is " In Inventory (MMBE) stock of a material shows around "3000" qty. But In WM stock is "zero" and physically also "zero". so in IM also stock should be reduced to "Zero". So I tried of creating PI document in WM and then when I try to enter the count, I faced the menioned problem.

How to exclude a set of materials from cycle counting physical inventory

How to exclude a set of materials from cycle counting physical inventory
Details:
Set of material to be uploaded to SAP on say Jan-2011 from another system with cc indicator D:once
in a year and fixed,before uploading into SAP physical inventory will be done .
So we donot want again those materials to fall in the cycle counting in the same year.
So is there a method to exclude these materials from CC counting for the year 2011
or is there some way to upload last inventory count date in SAP system so that it will exclude those
materials?
Any answers will be appreciated.
Thanks
Bijay

HI Antony
Thank you for your reply.
If material count is less than this method is well valid.
IN our case there are 7lakhs materials and having diff cc indicator A,B,C,D...
So it will cumbersome for client to keep track of all those materials when to update cc indicator.
So any other thought? can we upload last count date while updating materials details or similar
Thanks
Bijay
