Stock returns/RMA Stock

I am using SAP B1 to manage receipts and issues of stock with suppliers and customers and manage stock on a FIFO basis.  Most stock is serial number tracked and I want to see full history on the serial number
My issue relates to damaged stock where I take it back from the customer and send it to the supplier for repair or replacement.  In most cases this is done foc by the supplier
When I do a goods return for damaged stock from a customer it post a financial transaction which reduces my cost of sale.  This item is then returned to the supplier.  It may come back into stock at zero value.  All of this helps me track movement by serial number.  When I subsequently reissue that item to the customer through a delivery it again posts a financial transaction increasing my cost of sale.  However as I am using FIFO and have more of the same item in stock, the cost value of the item may not match on the return and delivery.
This is then further complicated by the fact that if we later sell out the item received in at zero cost, then based on FIFO this will post an incorrect cost value against this sale again distorting margins.
We are using multiple warehouses and the option for u2018manage item cost per warehouseu2019 has not been selected.  It there was some way to turn this on then that may solve the problem.
Thanks
David

Hi david
I wont suggest you to go 4 goods return in receiving the goods in ur case but instead of using the "minus " "-" sign when receiving back the goods as a result this would let to increase of stock when goods are returned
hope this would suffice all ur issue
its good to try and see whether it solves ur problem or not

  • How to post return stock to unrestricted stock for only Plant & Material Type combination?

    Hello Everyone,
    At present, whenever the stock is returned then it posted through 655 movement type. So, material is posted as quality stock.
    Now, the requirement is to post the stock to unrestricted stock for Plant and Material type combination only. Which means, if the plant is 1413 and the material type is ERSA, VERP, and HIBE then for return sales order system post the stock directly to unrestricted stock, instead of quality stock.
    So, is there any standard way of configuring the above scenario without going for validation (Z Fields)?
    Regards
    Anwar

    Dear Mohammed ,
    as per your scenario , there is two movement type has to trigger in the Delivery level according to the plant and material combination .
    as per my knowledge it will not configurable in standard process . this will possible with user exit logic only .
    follow the below logic to achieve your issue .
    you have to create two item categories and two schedule lines with (655 &653) , that means your movement type has to trigger at sales order level only . write a logic in the user exit - MV45AFZZ -USEREXIT_MOVE_FIELD_TO_VBAP , if this combination matches then automatically item category has to over write other wise it will copy the existing item category .at delivery level you can see two movement types in item level.
    wait for other experts solution , if any standard is possible or not  .

  • Return unrestricted stock to vendor

    Dear gurus,
    Our issue is as follows:
    GR is done for a line item in PO. Inspection lot is generated and this material goes to quality stock. The material is then moved to unrestricted stock. The status of the inspection lot is REL, CALC and SPCO. In stock overview the material is in unrestricted stock.
    Now we do not want to use this material. We have to return it to the vendor. Can anybody tell me how to return the material to the vendor in this case?
    Thank in advance,
    Ram

    Since your stock is already cleared from Quality inspection and now lying in Unrestricted
    Stock you can follow following procedure to return the vendor stock.
    Go to MIGO->Good Issue>Other->Movement type 122.
    Entered the material and stock details & vendor and post the document. It will reduce the stock from unrestricted stock. If you want finical effect of this to vendor account then in addition to this you need to created FI document in Tcode.F-43 which will raise the debit note to vendor.
    There is another away when the material is in quality stock, while doing Usage Decision in stock posting there is filed for vendor return Qty if you entered in this then this will post both inventory as well as vendor posting in FI.

  • That logic not to pay the money To customer once he returned the stock

    Dear SD Experts
    I Dont want to disturb This link Flow, so that is the reason i am asking my doubt here
    Return Sales order - update of Item category change
    I Am very interestingly to know what is That logic not to pay the money To customer once he returned the stock , then changing The item category in returns ....Please  explain

    Venu,
    Is the return authorized by the company?  If yes, what are the terms of return. If the company has a explicit policy like:  "Only replacement, but no credit", your logic can stand.  The reason could be that the item once opened, cannot be or should not be reused.  Like onetime-use plastic molds. Once molded, it has no value. Or opened onetime-use sanitized surgical instruments. 
    Another scenario I can think of is that it is a custom made goods.  For example, you want a chopping board with your name engraved on it, Before delivery, the maker takes an approval from you after showing the design work.  You approve the design, and give a go ahead. In such a scenario, the product is of no use to the seller.
    Any any of the case, like Moazza said the policy should be very explicit.
    Thanks

  • Customer Return Special Stock

    Hi,
    Is it possible to return from customer special stock to a plant which is not the source plant?  Currently, if I return to a different plant, it will say during outbound delivery, no stocks available.
    For example.. transfer from plant A to customer special stock. then when customer return, receipt will be in plant B. 
    The materials to be returned are non valuated.
    Thanks,

    Hiiii
    This is very much possible to get special stock return back from customer to plant B, but prior to that special stock material must be extended to Plant B. Now it is depand on business wheather u want to get it back on block stock or unrestricted use.

  • While using LT0G( Return to Stock from Delievry),item is Locked

    Hi All,
    We created an Intercompany STO, created delivery and since Storage Location was Warehouse Mnagaed created a TO for picking and di Goods Issue on that.Later it was realised some materials were wrongly included in delivery.So Goods Issue was reversed (VL09) and then while trying to reverse TO using LT0G we encountered a strange issue:
    1) One of the material included in delivery had delivered quantity as 108, during picking (TO creation) 70 units of the material got picked from one storage Bin and 38 from other Bin.
    Now in LT0G, i get the 2 line items created for this material however line item with only 38 quantity is active and allows to be returned to stock from Delivery, line item for remaining 70 units is locked and available quantity field is blank.Why it shows as locked? How can i unlock that? This is critical as we need to delete the picked material soon.
    Thanks,
    Anshul

    Select the locked item (set somehow the cursor on it), and click on "Log" button. What is the error message you get?
    Is the stock available?
    Isn't possible that someone already created the return TO for that item?
    LT0G is a troublesome transaction...(e.g. in case of stock determination group is set in material master it won't work; if not dynamic bin was used for picking you also may have problems, etc). Please check OSS notes there are many...
    You can try to process the item (try to create TO for that item) that is selectable and after that try LT0G again...
    (on selection screen of LT0G use "TO item view" radio button)
    remark:
    If you wants to delete the delivery you can do it w/o reversing the TO in LT0G. If the picking status is "C" you can delete the delivery and move the quant from 916 to normal storage type using LT01 / LT10...

  • Returns Order stock usage

    Hi,
    In our systems we have defined Returned Sales Orders as ZRE. When we return the stocks along with a Returns Delivery (Goods Receipt) stocks will be in a Returns Bin in a particular warehouse.
    But these stocks are not bound to a Sales Order Line Item. What is the movement we should use to assign that stock into another Sales Order if we are planning to
    ship them out ? And these Returned Goods seems to have "No Value".
    Appreciate your advice regarding this!
    Thanks in advance,
    Tarika

    For FG Material we have activated Inspection Type '06' - Returns from Customer Inspection and Inspection Plan with Usage 'Goods Issue 06' also created.
    SAP has returns set up to create 06 inspection lots. These are not stock relevant. In this case the inventory goes into the return stock category and another move must be done to move the material to unrestricted or blocked as needed it will not allow to move to QI
    If the material should go into QI stock and be under QI control, then config must be changed to use the 05 inspection type instead of 06.
    We create return sale order material comes in returns and we need Inspection lot with '06'. so in MB1B using mvt type 457 trying to move stocks from returns to quality but system is not allowing to transfer stock it gives error Change Inspection stock in QM only.
    In SPRO SD schedule line category for returns(DN) change movement type to 655 and make relevant settings for QM movement types.

  • Return consignment stock to blocked stock

    Hi All,
         I want to be able to return consignment stock through sd (pick up)directly to blocked stock .
    Movement type 632 is now used to transfer consignment stock to own unrestricted.
    What can i do ? is it possible  to put material in block stock with movement type 632
    In MM02, I enter the material code for which I am  creating consignment pick up and selected "Quality Management" view. & assign inspection type  06- Inspection for Returns from Customer
    & marked post to insp  stock.

    Hi
    Option 1
    For your consignment pick up schedule line category F0 or F1 the standard movement type is 632
    only
    You are not adviced to tamper the standard settings
    With  632 movement type stocks will be in  own unrestricted
    You can move them to QI inspection in t code MB1B with movement type 322 which should be he correct process
    Option 2
    But if the business demands then in your schedule line category F0 or F1 change the movement type to either 
    655---goes to QI inspection straight away (you can move them back to unrestricted  t code MB1B with movement type 321)
    or
    657----blocked stocks (you can move them back to unrestricted  t code MB1B with movement type 343)
    But avoid option 2

  • Material return(sales return)-default stock updation

    Daer Gurus
    While material return(sales return), default stock updation is possible through Transfer posting or some other transcation...pls help me to give a Soln
    Regards

    If a customer returns goods , you must first determine whether or not a returns delivery exists for the returns in the Sales (SD-SLS) component. You then enter the return with or without a returns delivery.
    Since returns from the customer are usually examined, the quantity returned is first posted to blocked stock returns. As is the case with goods receipt blocked stock, blocked stock returns are neither valuated nor do they count as unrestricted-use stock.
    If an examination proves that the returned quantity should be taken over into unrestricted-use stock, you enter the transfer to unrestricted-use stock in a second step. It is at that time that the valuation of the goods receipt occurs.
    If a returns delivery exists, the return should be posted in the Sales (SD-SLS) component, not in the Inventory Management component.
    Depending on how Customizing for Sales is configured (the movement type is configured in the step Define Schedule Line Category), the delivery is posted to the following stock:
    Blocked stock returns (non-valuated, not unrestricted-use) (movement type 651)
    Unrestricted-use stock (movement type 653)
    Quality inspection stock (movement type 655)
    Blocked stock (movement type 657)
    If the given quantity is posted to blocked stock returns first, you can make a manual goods movement posting in the Inventory Management component to transfer the quantity to valuated stock.
    If blocked stock returns are to be transferred into your company's own stock, you enter the transfer as a transfer posting. Choose movement type 453 (to unrestricted-use stock), 457 (to stock in quality inspection stock), or 459 (to blocked stock.
    If helps rewards points.
