You can create 'E' stock by using transaction MB1B movement type 412 special stock 'E'.

When you enter your plant and st loc and press enter you will have to enter the sales order and line item number and then enter your material wty etc and when you save the transaction that stock is allocated to the sales order you specified.

Movement type 411 will release it from the sales order.

I hope that this helps

Hi

Consignment stock is special stock 'K' and this means that you do not own it and it is not valued until you remove the 'K and then you will have a requirement to pay for it. This needs to be done in agreement with a vendor so that they will allow you to pay only when you use it and you will need the vendoe setting up as a consignment vendor and when you create the PO you create it for special stock 'K'.

Special stock 'E' is Sales order stock which means that the stock is allocate to a specific sales order and can only go to that sales order and if you try to pick it for anything else you should get an error.

I hope that this helps
