STO Via SD or STO via MM

Hi Gurus,
I need to know the pros & cons of Stock trans. order via SD process & STO via MM.
Client need to know the exact diff & which business process is more advantageous.
Thanks
Jai

1)If you are working with the stock transfer procedure with LE outbound delivery (SD route), this has the advantage that the shipping activities can be processed with the R/3 System (picking, packing, printing the delivery note, and so on).
2)This has advantage of control function since dispatch department can control the material shipping out of the company.
Material should have sales view and this material should be maintained in both the plants
Thus the STO via shipping is studied and documented in very simple language
Difference between STO of MM and SD route is explained and same can be considered while configuring STO for client
Hope this helps
If you need more information pls info. Mail

Difference B/W creation of STO via ME21N and ME27

Dear all,
The requirement is to create a STO via transaction ME21N.
I am doing so using BDC Recording. But I believe that BDCs can not be used for creation of Application Documnets using Enjoy transactions.
For the same reason I tried to create the STO via ME27 but there wre certain fields
which I require to populate are not available in this transaction.
Can u please let me know what is the difference between the above transactions ?
Kindly help.

Hi karthick,
This 'F' has no meaning like 'N'.
But i think.. these are stands to denote application area.
F- for pruchase order
A- for RFQ
etc....
ME91F - Purchase Orders: Urging/Reminders
ME91A - Urge Submission of Quotations
ME91 - Purchasing Docs.: Urging/Reminding
ME91E - Sch. Agmt. Schedules: Urging/Remind.
See these all are for different purpose.

Planned order creation via MRP depends, If we change Delivery date in STO

Hi,
Planned order creation via MRP depends, If we change Delivery date in Stock transfer Order.
I created STO with delivery date as 31.1.2012 and when i checked MD04, i can see Planned order created on 27.2.2012 with the same above STO quantity .
Now when i changed the delivery date as 30.1.2012 and runned MD03, and then checkd MD04, planned order disappeared.
Why Planned order got created when STO delivery date was 31.1.2012 and when I changed the delivery date in PO, planned order disappeared.
MRP profile details :
Plnd delivery time 1
GR processing time 1
Planning time fence 38
Tot. repl. lead time 38
Can you please let me know why system is beaving in this manner?
Regards
Utsav

Hi,
Normally , MRP runs based upon the requirements.If your STO is created for a date , system checks through the availabiloty check wheather there exists any stock for that date to get deliverred in the supply plant .If there exists for that date the stock , planned order will not be created.If no stock available then a planned order will be created in MRP.
cHECK the availability check parameters assigned to material master in supply plant.

Inbound delivery creation in STO via EDI/Idoc

Hello experts,
My requirement is like this:-
Stock transfer order is created for supplying plant 2000 & receiving plant 2010.
When the supplying plant 2000 posts an outbound delivery & PGI, at same time an Inbound delivery should be created in receiving plant 2010.
I know theoretically that this is achieved by making confirmation settings & output types. But don't know exactly how to configure it.
Can you please mention the process?
I have referred the scn threads:
Outbound Delivery to Inbound delivery by using IDOC
how to configure the message control for DESADV
SAP note 111903
Receiving Vendor Confirmations via EDI - Purchasing (MM-PUR) - SAP Library
But there is lack of clarity from my side.

You do not need to use EDI messages to get an inbound delivery created when a PGI is done on the outbound delivery.
Search for the config on the SPED output type. This SPED output message can be triggered during the PGI which results in the creation of an inbound delivery in the receiving plant.
The receiving plant will have to maintain the confirmation control key 0004 at item level in the purchasing document.

TLB STO's created in ECC via cif are being created with Intercompany Markup

STO's created using TLB in APO when cif'd over to ECC6 get created with an Intercompany Markup. When created manually in ECC6 using ME21N the markup is not part of the pricing and is correct. Has anyone had this same situation?

Abhishek,
ECC Route is is part of ECC Transportation and Delivery scheduling,
( http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_02/helpdata/EN/dd/5607e7545a11d1a7020000e829fd11/frameset.htm )
and is not directly linked to SCM means of transport in standard SCM. The analogue to Route in SCM is found in shipment scheduling in SCM. If you wish to link route to alternative Means of Transport, you will need to use an enhancement.
If you elect to use the more standard 'shipment scheduling' functionality to schedule your STOs instead of an enhancement, you do not need to implement the entire TLB or TPVS, you can pretty much implement just the shipment scheduling functionality.

STO of Sales order stock via delivery

Hi,
We have plants in many locations. We create sales order (TAB) in plant A sloc 0001 with individual purchase order . Supplier delivers the goods to the distribution centre (a different plant plant B or same plant A diff storage location Sloc 0002 ). Now the distribution centre (plant B) wants ship these materials along with other regular shipments to the Plant A. I created an STO, but when create the delivery using VL10B, I get an error message that the Material is not in PLant A Sloc 0002.
Do I have to do any other configuration?
Thanks
Ravi

Hi Raja,
Thanks for your detailed response. Here is answers to your question.
Why do you do that?Why not in plant A sloc 0001
OK if for any administrative reasons you receive the stocks in different plant B or same plant A
diff storage location Sloc 0002
As explained initially, plant A and Plant B (or PLant A sloc 0001) are geographically apart. Plant B is the distribution centre. So it was agreed with vendor that he can ship all materials to distribution centre.
Hope i have clearly understood your process
Yes. Spot on.
In MMBE it should show as sales order stocks in the sales order no you have created first in
same plant A diff storage location Sloc 0002 or different plant plant B
Yes it is showing in PLant B Sloc 0002 as sales order stock.
If you are getting the shipping tab in the STO then it means the config from SD side is correct
Yes I checked the STO. Shipping tab and details look ok. I missed it in my earlier post. When I create the STO I get the availability check message that says that "of the material only 0.0 EA is available on desired date" which means that it does not recognise the
Sales Order stock. I create the STO woth account assignment "M". I hope that is correct.
TAB is with special stock indicator E rom SD side in VOV7 so along with movement types in
MB1B use special stock indicator E also With MB1B things should workout for you
You have given me a clue here. I think I need to configure a new item category for the sloc to sloc delivery in vov7 to activate the sales order stock.
I will come back to you after testin this one,
Thanks a lot
Ravi

STO (via EDI) extend delivery

Dear, colleagues
Our customer has requested to setup Intercompany Stock transfer Orders to supply sales stores form DC. Business scenario is:
- Store creates PO for goods
- DC creates Delivery documents based on PO (vl10b)
- Goods are delivered on Pallets, each store takes care about them. There are no PAL in PO doc, DC add then only in at the moment of delivering (in delivery doc).
- Goods issue/ receipt
- Intercompany billing
- Invoice verification
The problem I faced is what to do with PAL in IV? In fact, I have to process them as normal goods. It seems to IV has to be created on Goods receipt base, unfortunately SAP threats PAL as extra costs, not as goods
Does anybody has faced with such scenario?
Many thanks

Delivery completed indicator for STO cannot be set!

Dear colleagues,
There are number of STO’s those goods issue quantity > quantity of goods received. Because of this delivery completed indicator cannot be set due to message “06 848 - Delivery completed indicator cannot be set for item XXXXX”.
There is an OSS note (167795) that allows to set delivery completed indicator for such purchase orders. Even though our SAP release is 6.04, report RM06EV70 does not exist (yet BADI ME_ARCHIVE_ACTIVE is active) in the system and OSS note cannot be implemented.
Any help would be appreciated.
Regards,
Melih
PS. Please do not provide answers like “the goods receipt must be first posted via the entire goods issue quantity; then you can post a scrapping via the shortfall quantity” since there are backdated STO’s.

Hi,
Find STO created for which plant in t.code:ME23N and check MRP parameter maintained for that plant in t.code:OPPQ( also check entry of that plant in t.code: OMCD).
Also cross check which Field Selection Key assigned to your STO PO document type and check “Delivery completed" indicator” available as Optional entry in GR/IR control segment in your Field Selection Key.

Default Values for Creation of STO's.

Hello Experts:
When I create STO's, I don't see any source of default values, like Delivery Tolerance, Confirmation control key, etc, that for a PO usually come from the Vendor or The Info Record.
We have managed to add these values via BADI, but for STo's created from APO via Transportation load Builder, this Badi is no taking effect. (The Badi I used is and works fine when doing it online, in ME21N or via a BAPI.
Do you have any experience on where (user exit, etc) to add logic for putting these default values in the STO's created by TLB.
Thanks in advance

Sorry the BADI used is ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST

Freight in STO

Dear Experts
Non valuated material is transferred to another plant via stock transfer order. We have used FRB1 condition in STO with FRE and FR1 keys.
In this transaction we want to post freight cost to one of our expense account (GR/IR freight vend account) at the time of Goods issue. How to customized this assignment.
Please guide.
Thanx in advance
Kailash

Hi Kailash,
Since material is non Valuated it is not required to mainatin the fright on PO itself.
The batter would be to use SD-Transpotation (shipment costing) customization and accure the fright as per your requirement.
you may check the below mentioned link, for any challange do write.

STO from unrestricted to E stock from TAB item in Sales Order?

Hi all,
We have the situation where we are shipping stock intra-company via the STO Process. The requirements are being driven of a TAB item on the Sales Order, and the purchase req is being generated automatically, and being converted to STO > Delivery > Shipped then received at requesting plant.
If we leave the Dependent Requirements Indicator on MRP4 in Material Master to blank the stock is shipped from the shipping plant as Sales Order stock and received into the requesting plant as Sales Order stock. If we change the Dependent Requirements Indicator on MRP4 in material Master to '2' then it trys to ship the stock as unrestricted, and the theory is that is should be received as Sales Order stock.
Shipping as Unrestricted and receiving as Sales Order stock is exactly the scenario we are trying to achieve.
We initially ran into an issue with error message M7146. OSS Note 305582 describes this situation, and says we need to change the consumption posting on Account Assignment Catgegory M to be 'E - Accounting via Sales Order'.
So we changed this, and now when we try and create the Sales Order we get an error message kd051 Maintain a Settlement Profile. We are told by our Finance people that we cannot use the Sales Order as a cost collector as it impacts the PA reporting, so I am wondering if anyone has any suggestions as to how we can resolve this issue.
Many Thanks.
