Hi Srihari,
Any valuated material type can be purchased directly to consumption (project, maintenance, etc.) or first purchased to stock and then issued from stock charging the corresponding object (project, maintenance, etc.)
You purchase to consumption using a PO with account assignment category (AA categories K, Q and E are a bit special - there you purchase to stock, but special stock). You purchase to the (general use) stock using PO without AA category. The receipt (101) goes to stock (and stock account). Later when you want to use your material for a project, use trs MB1A (or MIGO with "goods issue" option) with mvt type 221 (or 261 if you don't use SAP PS system, but handle projects as "internal orders"). To issue material charging a PS "network", use mvt 281. To issue to PM order use mvt 261 and to issue charging a cost centre directly use mvt 201.
Hope this is clear.
