Hi there,

Looks like you have special stock E indicator for REN item catg in VOV7.

Stock E is used to post make to order items. Stock is posted against sales order stock. We cannot use that scenario in returns.

So remove the setting E in Special Stock in VOV7 for REN items.

Hi Rahul,

Keep in mind what Sivananda explained.

Normally the process for damaged goods, actually for all returns, should be that upon GR the stock is assigned a "restricted" status. Then from here it depends on whether or not you have QM impemented. If you do, then there is a formal QA process to determine the state of the returned goods, if it fails the tests the stock is then assigned for re-working or scrap or write-off.

if no QM then the process is identical but the stock movements are done manually.

Hi Rahul,

First check what your schedule line category is - standard SAP for returns (order type RE) is DN.

Then go to Tx VOV6, and display this schedule line category. Notice the movement type assigned to it. SAP Standard is 651.

You can create your own schedule line category and assign it movement type 657 - this will GR the returned stocks into a blocked status.

THe business will then have to manage these stocks and use transactions such as MB1B to transfer stocks.

But this part of the process you should leave it for a MM consultant.

These Special Stock indicators are used to differntiate the various stock positions. e.g. Stock indicator "E" is used when we need to specify the stock against Sales Order.

Very purpose of the various stock indicators come in different type of Process. Generally Stock Indicator "E" is ued when the material is manufactured specificaly to the Sales Order means MTO type of syanrio

or When u want to reserve the stock to that particular Sales Order only.

If the stock available in the Plant is having indicator "E" then it must be assigned to particular Sales Order. This stock cannot be delivered using some other sales Order. Since is it specific the sales Order.

Special stock E is "sales order stock", this means that this was stock GR against a specific sales order - please check original process to confirm this.
