STO for Muliple Plants through delivery

Dear Gurus,
I have configured the STO process through Delivery and Shipment for my 4 plants within one CC. The process is running end to end. The problem is that one of my plant can recieve stock from any one of my other 3 plants or you can say that 1 plant can transfer stock to any of the other 3 plants as the requirement arises.
Unfortunately, in SAP Customizing Implementation Guide - Materials Management - Purchasing - Purchase Order - Set up Stock Transport Order - Define Shipping Data for Plants there is provision for entering only one customer number and I have created a separate customer master for all 4 of my plants. I need to do this for automatic route determination.
Can anyone please suggest a solution or a work around for this process.

The customer in V_001W_IV-KUNNR is "plant customer", it represents the issuing / supplying plant to which it is assigned and not the customer(s) of receiving plant(s).
You have to extend this customer to the STO sales area of its own plant and of the receiving plants'. Whenever you create an sTO in which the receiving plant is this, the plant customer will appear in the delivery as ship-to. Independently from the supplying plant, the ship-to party is the same if the receiving plant is the same.
So, one of them is enough even if you have several plants and you want to have STOs between them.
You can define several customers for issuing plant based on plant/storage location combinations:
SPRO > MM > Purchasing > Purchase Order > Set Up STO > Set Up Stock Transfer Between Storage Locations > Define Shipping Data for Stock Transfer Between Storage Locations
However I guess you only have to understand how this works and you need only one customer per plant...
Please understand how it works before sending lots of messages...
Regards,
Csaba

  • Configuration setting for Auto TO through Delivery (outbound)

    Hi Gurus,
    Could you plz, tell me whrere is the config setting for TO. creation through VL06O.
    I am fallowing the below steps
    1.STO creation.(STR converted to STO via ME59N).
    2.Delivery created thru VL10B.
    3.TO created thru VL06O (When I click on TO in background, TO is creating and displaying in LT23)
    After the above process I confirm TO and do the post goods issue.
    I want to know info. about configuration setting to create TO through VL06O.
    your hlep will appriciated a lot.
    thanks
    raghu

    Hi Raghu,
    There is no separate settings for VL06O for Automatic TO creation.
    Normally we assign the Automatic Creation to Mov.types in WM.
    SPRO - LE - WM - Activities - Transfers - Set Up Autom. TO Creation for TRs / Posting Change Notices
    In the above scenario which you have mentioned you are creating TO in the background which is done using the Mov.type & Strorage type Strategy Settings & its not a Auto TO creation.
    Hope its clear,

  • MD04 exceptions for planning plant and delivery plant

    I have a material that is to be produced in another plant via a special procurement key.  When a production order is created at times on MD04 I can see exceptions at the planning plant and not the delivery plant.  Is there a way to make sure the planning plant displays the exceptions as well? Thanks in advance for any help.

    I found the answer.  Since planning is only expected to be done at the planning plant the rescheduling dates and exception messages only apply there.  There isn't any config to allow the production plant to see the reschedule dates or exception messages.

  • Sto intra company plant to plant

    hi guru's
    in a company code i have two plants x and y. i configured sto for two plants both the way from x to y and y to x. i maintained shipping data for both the plants with same cust no and same sales area.
    i have transfer the stock its ok. its transferring from one to other. but when i am creating the order with that customer and material plant is determining in the order. i tried enter the plant manually but its not taking its showing the error enter the respected plant.
    do we need to maintain any config for this. pls help out.

    Hello Surya,
    For STO the following steps can be performed.
    You need to have 1 company code + 2 plants assigned to them
    Supose co.code is  Z01 and your plants are X and Y.
    X- is Supplying Plant
    Y-is Recieving plant
    You should have 1 material under Supplying plant and should be extended to Recieving plant .
    One customer which should be maintained under recieving and supplying plant.
    Maintain shipping conditions and delivering plant in XD02 which is vital.
    Now the steps are.
    First step
    Go to OLME-Purchase order - set up STO- Define shipping data for plants
    or you can also follow path which is
    IMG-mm-purchase-purchase order--set up STO
    Here you need to ender the sales area details i.e your sales organisation, distribution channel, division and the plant details.
    Second Step
    Define Checking rule: you can use standard one or you can define your own one
    Third Step
    Assign Delivery type to checking rule
    Here you need to assign delivery types to checking rule like NB-NLCC- and suppose checking rule is B
    and for UB-NL-and checking rule could be B
    _Fourth Step_
    Assign document types wheather it is one step
    like X-Y-UB
    once you have gone throught these steps and saved at every step then raise purchase order ME21N save it.
    for delivery do VL10B, and here dont forget to add document data, and save it.
    Now do the MIGO whose movement type is 301.
    All these steps are there one after by one
    I think this are basic step which you should follow to do STO.
    If I have missed any thing please do not ignore, instead correct.
    Regards,
    Sridhar.

  • Intracompany STO between multiple plants

    Hi Experts,
    What should be the easy way of setting up STO between multiple plants via delivery. I've 15 plants defined here under a single company code and any plant can transfer goods to all plants. So should I maintain this settings at "Assign document type" factorial 15 times i.e., xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx times?
    Please help. what should be the easiest way?
    Thanks,
    Rajoo

    Do you want to create STO po between all 15 plants? Every time you create STO? Why don't you go for MB1b with movement type 301 or 303 and 305. Alternatively you can think about using special procurement key in MRP-2 view for direct withdrawel from the alternate plant.
    But if you want to do STO between all plants then you need to give all possible combination with document type in config, you have no other alternate

  • Delivery cost for Stcok transfer through M.type : 351

    Hi Experts,
    Can anybody explain how to capture the delivery costs for Stock transfer through M.Type 351.
    Also kindly explain the steps involved in configuration of the same.
    Thanks in advance,
    Prabu

    Hi,
    Once the Config releated to Setup stock transfer order is done.
    To include the cost you need to include the pricing procedure related to STO needs to be assigned to your schema group.
    Goto SPRO -MM-Purchasing -- Conditions
    Here you need to assign the Schema determination RM2000 to your Purchasing organization.
    Then when you create the STO in the recieiving plant, then you will get the condition tab in the item details of STO, there you can maintain the delivery costs for that material & send the STO to your supplying plant.
    Supplying plant will send the material through MB1B & with mvt type 351 to recieving plant.
    At the time of Goods reciept system will capture the delivery costs in the recieving plant for that STO.

  • Accounting entries after PGI for STO Within same Plant

    Dear Members,
    We have activated STO within same plant in OLME->PO->Setup STO -> Set up stock transfers between Storage locations
    Cycle is PO ->VL10B->VL02N ->PGI ->GR
    We are using newly created delivery type ZNL ( copying NL ,Using 641 )
    Which is working fine
    Now the thing I am observing here is this
    a > When we have not assigned any pricing procedure  in  Determine Schema for Stock Transport Orders
    after PGI no accounting document was generated
    But our requirement is to add freight cost that is why we added a pricing procedure ZRM200 (copying RM2000)
    Here we are observing after PGI accounting document is generated
    Postings are ( Material cost 500 Eur i.e 100 Kg @ 5.00 Eur in PGI )
    RM stock a/c       500 Cr.
    RM stock a/c       800 Dr.
    Freight clearing   300 Cr
    And it does not matter whether P101 is in ZRM200 or not (Same posting with or without P101)
    Now my question is it correct system behavior ?
    And requirement is postings should only be like this ( i.e without including transfer posting price)
    RM stock a/c       300 Dr
    Freight clearing   300 Cr
    Can it be possible to achieve ?
    Many thanks in advance
    Edited by: redriver on Dec 29, 2011 2:35 PM

    Not necessary to activate Purchase account
    Even for STO we use FRE. It is only a name and called as Purchasing freight account
    So check the pricing procedure at M/08 for freight condition and account key. I think it is FRE
    Check which GL account assigned at OBYC/Purchasing freight account(FRE).
    if the GL is same as your RM and if your need mainatain separate GL enter that GL here.
    Let us know result

  • Partial shipping through STO for SD

    Hi Guru's,
    please help with solution for my following business scenario.
    I have 3 plants for ex A, B and C, normally manfaturing will be done in plant B and C. if we have sales order in plant A we want to create STO for plant B for some line items and STO for plant C for remaining line items (they r doing manually). here we would like to ship items directly to customer in sales order from plant C. is it possible?
    suggest any best solutions for above case.

    The customer in V_001W_IV-KUNNR is "plant customer", it represents the issuing / supplying plant to which it is assigned and not the customer(s) of receiving plant(s).

  • STO for PLant abroad

    Hi,
    Is there any specific steps to create intra company STO for plant abroad. In help i can see the below
    note. How to do this?
    Stock transfer
    Replenishment deliveries between different EU countries are relevant for billing. The billing status is A.
    Appreciate your quick response on this.
    Thanks,
    Suresh

    hi
    if the plant belong to same company code, then you need to capture the duties etc that would come into picture cause it would also involve import duites for reciving countries. therefore you will have to change the calculation scheme and capture this. also if billing is involved you need to take delivery type NLCC.
    Thanks

  • STO for Plants with different excise registers

    Dear All,
    We have to transfer the materials within a company code. Two plants are different one for trading where we maintain RG23D register and other for manufacturing where we maintain RG23C register.
    Can we use STO for stock transfer between the Plants. And how to maintain proper excise register in both the Plants.
    Regards
    Vikas Sehra

    You can definitely have stock transfer between two plants: one a manufacturer and another a trader.
    Maintain the proper assignment of registers in the corresponding excise groups.
    The STO process followed is as for a depot transfer:
    1) STO, OBD, PGI, VF01 and J1IIN in the manufacturing plant where RG23A/RG23C gets updated
    2) GR, J1IG at trading plant, RG23D gets updated with the reference to the parent invoice from the manufacturer.
    3) VA01, OBD, J1IJ, VF01 during sales, here billing automatically picks up excise duty paid to government by the manufacturing plant
    Please note that though you can mark up during sales from the trading plant (sell as a higher price), excise will still be the same as that paid to the government by the manufacturing plant. In case, you want to charge higher excise as well, please look at my document: CIN: Capturing Additional Excise at Depots Due to Price Change – A Certificate
