Sys Vs Physical stock

[former_member461383]

Dear friends,

Kindly help with the following issues:

In MB52 sys is showing stock of 10 units of the material. But physically those 10 units are not present/ can not be sold because:

1.They have been stolen then how to remove those 10 units from the sys?

2.Another scenario is that if those 10 units are defective then how to handle?

Kindly tell what is the SAP activity in both the scenarios. Stock is insured, in both the scenrios.

Rgds.

Hi

if you do not cycle counting settings in your Organisation it is alwyas better to go for Physical Inventory to settle the stock. For both you cases if you are not going to use scrap process the it is safer to go for Physical inventory

Two ways 1. Create Physical inventory document- MI01 2. Count The county in MI04 and post the difference in 3. MI07

2. or else all the above you can achieve in one Txn MI10 this combines all the above txn.s

Hi

1. First scenario, 10 pieces got stolen- this is purely stock missing, i would suggest you to go for Physical inventory, use MI10 for setting the stock right. If you go for Scrapping that is either by using 551/553/555 it should be acceptable to FI, as account affected are different. Go for the one which suits you better.

2. second case -defective- If you want to outright removal follow scrapping in this case using any of the movements 551/553/555.

In both the above cases your stock will be adjusted.

Hi R S,

1)You can reduce the cost by issuing to cost center using tcode MB1A and movement type 201.

2) If the material is defective then it should first inspected by quality team, then the quality team give the scrap code ( status of the material deffect), after this moved to respective stock.

In both the cases, you have to scrap the material n MB1A with movement type 551

In MB1A sys is asking for Cost Centre. But I've not configured any Cost Centre. Can't we do w/out it?

Hi

You need to adopt physical counting process which is used for accounting stock imbalances in plant/ warehouse. You should not use scrapping process as it is a process loss. Physical counting is a period process.

1. Create a physical count document using MI01 (for plant/ storage location/ material combination) and tick freeze book inventory.

2. Enter the real stock quantity in ware house in created physical count document in MI04 (say zero and tick zero count in check box).

3. Post the differenc of SAP book figure and counted quantity in MI07. Then stock will be reduced to zero. Reduced quantity will be updated in physical inventory loss/ gain account (GBB - INV in OBYC transaction).

Take help of MM consultant on the process.

Thanks
