Stock transport orders and demand planning

I have 2 plants 1000 and 2000. 1000 sells Finished goods(FG) to customers and also does a inter plant transfer of FG from from 1000 to 2000. We use a STO to do the transfer. Plant 2000 also sells to customers. We are doing a consumption based planning and creating a forecast for FG at 1000. We enter the forecast as a PIR in demand management in Plant 1000. The forecast is based on consumption ( sales + transfer via STO). Is it possible for the STO from 2000 TO 1000 to consume the demand in Plant 1000?
thanks a lot

I am not using DRP but running MRP in both plants. Does'nt DRP use the same MRP funtionality? Is there something in configuration that I can do to have the STO consume the PIR?
Also if I do forecast based planning with VV MRP type in 1000 is there a way the STO will consume the forecast?
thanks a lot

First you need a supplying plant. stock ready to transfer for a matetrial which should be created/extended at both the suppling and receiving plants.

The most important part is Vender has been replaced by supplying plant.

Rounding off error between stock transport order and GR (Quantity)

Hello,
I would appreciate your help in an issue. Our customer uses stock transfer order in which a conversion rule was set. Since the transport company requires another unit, the purchase order is created in ton but MIGO is done with Megawatt Hour. SAP takes into consideration only three digits after comma. Therefore, a rounding off error occurs which can only be seen in MB52 but not in the transitsaldo MB5T. The difference or the missing quantity (i.e. 0,001 MH which is 0,0000xxx TON) can not be found and thus a GR can not be posted in MIGO either.
If you have any idea how to solve this or if there is any OSS message on this, please post on this thread. I am waiting for your comments.
Thanks,
Esra

Hi Ram Prasad,
The note you suggested is very useful. I need to download the correction. When I use movement types
557/558, I got the error that the transit saldo exceeded xxx MWH.
PO = TON
GI = 2,159 MWH
GR = 2,157 MWH which corresponds to 0,459 TON
Conversion rule= 1 TON = 4,7 MWH
Do you know how to book 0,002 MWH away with these scrapping mov.types? This quantity is missing and is not shown in MB5T because this list functions with TON as far as I figured it out.
Thanks a lot for your help.

Planning stock transport orders

Hello experts,
does anybody know how to create a purchase requisition per stock transport order when executing MD01/ MD02 process. For example, we have three plants, Z002, Z024 and Z025. If we create two stock transport order, one with plant Z024 and the other one with plant Z025, both supplying plant Z002 same material and same delivery date. When executing MD02 for plant Z002 the system groups all needs derivated from the two stock transport orders and proposes only one purchase requisition, but we need to create, in this case, two purchase requisition.
Thanks

Firt of all, I´d like to thank you for having answered so quick.
I had already tried what you tell me and the resault wasn´t as expected.
Thanks

APO Process Order and Stock Transport Order

Using APO Process and Stock Transport Orders are generated. Plant A generates the orders so that plant B can make and ship the product back to plant A against the stock transport order using VL10b.
I see the stock transport order and process order in R/3. But when trying to ship the product to plant A, vl10b does not list any purchase orders?
How do you associate a Process Order with a transport order?
Something to do with the time horizons?

I hope you have resolved this query at your end. In case yes, Please share your observations

Valuation type in case of stock transport order

Hi,
We are spilt valuation.
now we are doing stock transport order and it is asking for valuation type. while we dont want to enter valuation type in STO.
as which material is to sent to plant, we know at that time of delivery.
but during making STO system is asking for 'enter valuation type'.
How we can do the same.
Regards,
Santosh

Hi,
Since you have activated the split valuation for the material system is asking to enter the valuation type.
Check the material master Accounting 1 view whether you have maintained valuation category?
If you want Split valuation, maintain the valuation type in config settings in IMG & extend the material to the respective valuation type.
Hope it helps.
Thanks & Regards,

Stock Transport Order u2013 Duplicate goods receipt quantity

We implemented the scenario: the stock transport order process with SD. To post the goods issue , we have created a new goods movement type (937) with reference to the movement type: 641, to differentiate these movements of other goods movements that are made in the company, because in this case, for issuing plant it is necessary to manually confirm these goods issues in WM (We need use storage bins in issuing plant). The outbound delivery, in issuing plant, is created through the transaction VL10B with reference to Stock transport Order, and goods issues is posted using transaction VL02N. In receiving plant, we use transaction MIGO to post goods receipt.
Then, when we post the goods receipt for one replenishment delivery in Transaction MIGO, the system issues error message: M7022 telling us: u201Cthat the stock in transit has been exceeded by XXXu201D. The difference between the stock in transit and the Quantity in Unit of Entry is exactly equal to the quantity that was reported in the goods issue in Issuing Plant (outbound delivery). That is, Quantity in Unit of Entry is duplicated with respect to outbound delivery quantity. But if the goods receipt is posted with reference to the stock transport order, the Quantity in Unit of Entry is calculated correctly and corresponds with the quantity of outbound delivery of the issuing plant. This does not happen when using the standard goods movement type 641. As mentioned above, we have configured Warehouse Management for issuing plant.
The only difference between the standard scenario and implemented one in the company is the goods movement type, which is a copy of movement type 641. So, my question is: Can not copy the goods Movement type 641 (Transfer to stock in transit)? Please, I appreciate your support to resolve this issues.
Best regards,

All goods movements are being posted in the same unit of measure (base unit of measure ), since the material has no alternative units of measure configured. And we think that has to do with the movement type, because when using the standard movement type (641), the whole process is flowing properly. However, when using the new movement type, the system behaves the way it was explained earlier.
Through various tests, we identified that the quantity is duplicated when the table T321 (Assignment MM Movement Type --> MM-WM Movement Type) and the IMG view V_156S_WM (Reference Movement Types for Warehouse Management) are set, since it also was created a new movement type for WM. For this reason we think that the problem lies in the configuration of the new movement type.
Anyway, thanks for your help.

Stock Transport Order - Partners not Determined

Hi Colleagues,
We have a simple Intra company Stock Transport Order and want to get the partner function 'VN' into the purchase order and then into the Inbound Delivery
We have configured the partner schemas and assigned to the vendor account group 0007. Partners are created in the plant vendor record
We have configured the purchase document schema and assigned this to document type 'UB'. However, the partners are not defaulted into the STO. We can assign them manually
However, when we create the Inbound Delivery for the STO the vendor is not defaulted into the delivery and gives an incompletion error. We can manually enter vendor in the inbound delivery and then save the document.
Any Ideas what is wrong or missing?
Thanks
Steve

have a look into OSS note 863541 - Standard vendor for inbound delivery w/ purchase order refer

Stock transport order v/s stock transfer order

Hai
What is stock transport order and stock transfer order?
Is there any difference?
If so what is the basic difference?
What are SD configurations needed for configuring Stock transport order and stock transfer order
Regards
Raja

Hi,
A. STO is stock transfer order.it is used when stock is transferred from storage location to storage location or plant to plant..
Configuration Settings:
1. Create Internal Customer
2. Create Vendor (Transport Agent) 3. Set up Stock Transport Order by going to IMGMaterials ManagementPurchasingPurchase Order Set up Stock Transport Order
B.there is no stock transport order in SAP. it is Transport Order which will be used in automatic picking..whenever goods shoul be picked from ur warehouse TO is used..
Logistics execution->shipping>picking>lean wm-->there u can find number ranges for TO.
u can create TO by using T-code LT03...
Hope it will clarify ur doubts..
regards..

Changing of Stock Transport Order

How can I find out who changed a Stock Transport Order, and on which date it was chaged.

Hello,
1)Normally, every change that has happened in SAP documents can be tracked through change tables CDHDR(Header Table) & CDPOS(Item Table).
2)Another way of doing it, is going through menu path by opening the Stock Transport Order & selecting Environment-> Changes.
Hope these details resolve your query.

Planned order conversion to Process Order and Stock Transport Order

Hello Friends,
Help me to setup the below scenario
We have an requirement wherein MAT1 can be inhouse produced or can also get stock from other plant via stock transport order.
For which in Material master I have configured
MRP 2 view
Procuremrent Type - X
Special Procurement - 40 (wherin the splly plant is maintained)
MRP 3 view
Strategy group - 40 (as it is planning with final assembly)
But when i run MRP system created Planed orders for PIRs. Selecting Planned Order conversion only Purchase req tab is available we do not have an option to convert to production order.
Kindly help me correcting the settings, so that i should be in a position to convert planned order either to process order or Stock transport Purchase requisition.
Thanks and Regards,
Chandra

Hi Chandra,
Stock transfer is only possible with procurement type 'F'. when you take spl.procurement type 40, its a combination of F(procurement type) and U (Spl.procurement). it will over write the procurement type ('X' in your case) in material master. that is the reason u r getting only pur req.
if you know the proportion quantity i.e how much inhouse and how much stock transport, then use quota arrangement.
or
don't use any spl procurement key. define the materials in both the plants. when converting planned order to pur req. manually assign supplying plant and item category 'U'. try this.
Thanks & regards

Stock transport order between storage locations and assignment category type E not in MRP

Hello Gurus,
I have a stock transport order between 2 storage location which belongs to the same plant. Besides the stock transport order is allocated to a sales order (account assigment category E). When I run the MD03, the system take into account the quantity of the stock transport order as a future entry and this is wrong. I need that the MRP has not into account the stock transport order as an entry.
As an important information, If I modify the stock transport order removing the account asignment category E (sales order), then the MRP doesn't take into account it, so this is correct.
Could anybody tell me how to get it?
Thanks in advanced.

Laura,
It is normal that MRP will consider an STO as a receipt element; this is basic planning. It is unclear to me why you think you do not want it to do so, but I will assume you have some logical reason.
Contrary to what some others may have suggested, changing the scope of check for availability checking has no effect on which elements are considered for MRP. MRP is a completely separate functionality from Availability Check.
For Location > Location STOs (within a plant), then, you normally have the receipt element of the STO in the destination storage location, and the requirements element of an equal amount in the source storage location. Net of these two elements is zero, unless you have already issued the STO at the source location.
Changing the Account assignment from "E" means that the STO will not be relevant for your Sales order (in other words, when you receive this STO into the destination storage location, it cannot be used for your sales order). In a general MTO scenario, it also means that the proceeds of this STO (the stock you received) cannot be used for ANY sales orders.
One way that some people make an STO 'not relevant' for MRP is to alter the destination storage location such that it is not relevant for MRP. You can change the MRP relevancy of the storage location in MM02 > MRP4 tab

How to avoid purchase req and stock transport order to take part in MRP.

Please suggest how to avoid purchase req and stock transport order to take part in MRP.

hi,
check the settings for the MRP type...there you need to show which doc will be taken into considerations...
SPRO >> MM >> CBP...
Under CBP check for the MRP settings where it is placed(check under master data settings)...and check for the indicator for PR's and STO's release orders under tab "Additional external req. in the reorder point planning"..
