Hi Victor,

Availablility check for a particular storage location can be done, if you maintain Storage location for the material in the Sales order. This will suffice your problem.

You can refer to the following help link for the same:

Hi

Welcome to SDN

By, stores, i mean that you are referring the site in retail (in R3 it is plant)

Your requirement is not at all possible in standards

If the available qty is less than the order qty the order should not be saved (hope this is your requirement)

In standard we can make the settings so that availabilty popup will be thrown

But to make the sales order not to get saved is not possible in standards

I too had a similar requirement sometime back

Check this thread

Forum post in ERP - Sales and Distribution (SD) General: Availabilty check

Hi,

Your requirment can implemented by configuration of Availability Check in SAP. When ever the quantity of the sales order is more than the quantity in the store the system will pop a window and then you can select what action to be taken.

To configure Avalibity check you can check on this link

Dear Victor,

In this your scedule line will be in such a way that it should check stock in storage location only. It shouldnt go for reqmt planning. The schedule line also compare total of sales order to total in storage location. If the value is negative system throw an error not process the sales order, sales order qty more.

Discuss this with ABAP. Wait for what others say?
