Serial numbers in stock transports

[Former Member]

Hi,

I cannot post goods issue a stock transport order delivery from plant 1000 to 2000 without maintiaining a serial number profile in both the plant.

So i have to maintain the profile in both Plants?

One plant uses serial numbers and the other doesnt.

Please explain.

Hi there,

Serial num stored in MARC-SERNP is a plant specific profile. In 1 plant material can have profile Z001 & in anouther it can have Z002. So as a practise we always maintain serial num profile in MM02.

Basing on the serial num profile some procedures are assigned by which serial num assignment is mandatory for GR & GI etc (for eg MMSL, HUSL, SDLS etc). Basing on what is required & what is optional you will have to maintain the serial num when doing GR or PGI.

So check in SPRO --> SD --> Basic functions --> serial num --> determine serial num profile.

Hi

No. Need not be. If you have setup the serial number profile generation as manual in the config, then it can have any number assigned. Ideal is to have the automatic same serial number profile across the plants as otherwise there is a chance of getting things messed, but this depends upon your business requirement as well.
