Error while doing PGR (post goods issue for sales order return)

[Former Member]

Hello Gurus,

I'm trying to do PGR for a sales order return. But system shows the following message: "Shortfall below the specified stock level or quantity amounting to 100 UN". (Message number : M7021)

I've made some searches in SD forum but I didn't fnd appropriate answers.

What does it mean ? How can I fix it ?

Thank you,

Bahia.

Dear all,

I've read those OSS notes, it didn't really help me.

I've noticed that my sales document type "RE" (return) is related to item category REQ (Full Product Returns).

This item category (REQ) is related to schedule line CP (MRP) which is related to movement type 601(GD goods issue:delvy).

Can this be possibly the source of my problem ?

Hi again.

I've changed all this mess.

I maitained item category REN and RENN for document type RE.

REN and RENN are related to schedule line DN.

Now well I'm trying to do PGR I got this message: "Special Stock E not supported (check your entry)".

I made some searches in the forum.

I've found this: .

Even if I'm not using batch management in my case !

When I went to IMG > Sales and Distribution > Basic Functions > Availability check and transfer of requirements > transfer of requirements > Determination of requirement types using transaction.

For the combination of returns item category (REN ) and MRP Type (PD ), I've maintained '0' in the 'Q' column and the other fields are blank

What am I missing ?

Regards,

Bahia.

Hi

"Special Stock E not supported (check your entry)".

This means your sales order (in your case the returns order ) is created with an item category which is marked with special stock indicator E in VOV7 and the system is checking for that special stocks and it is not finding that

When you mark any item category with special stock indicator it can be E or Q or W ( it can be anything ) system will check for that particular stock category and not the general unrestricted stocks

For you mistake can be two things

1. Right now REN or RENN is wrongly marked with special stock indicator E in VOV7

If so remove that and try a fresh cycle

2.The process you are right now doing is returns

The original sale would have happened with special stock indicator E marked in its item category

That means it is special stock

That stock you might be trying to take it into general stocks now

In that case right now you need to mark REN or RENN with special stock indicator E

Note whenever you put your hand in VOV7 create a fresh order cycle and test and dont test it with already created order

Note touching requirement classes are all big things to do in a project and not advisable lot many mistakes we can correct itself if we know order type ,item category and schedule line category

Dear Raja,

I've already checked for REN or RENN. It's not marked with special stock indicator E in VOV7. It's blank !

i'll try the second option and revert to you later.

Even if I doubt this is my problem's source, since the original sales order has as item category TAN !

Thank's my friend.

Like I told You raja, the original sales order has TAN with no special stock assigned !

Well, I did exactly what is advised to in .

Since I'm working on MTO scenario.

The special stock error message disappeard. But once again I'm having the old error message: "Shortfall below the specified stock level or quantity amounting to 100 UN". (Message number : M7021)

Why ?

Thank's.

Bahia.

Dear Bahia

Something i see basically wrong with your settings

You are telling that it is MTO scenario then how come your sales order item category be TAN

TAN is a wrong item category for MTO

You need to elaborate more about your process first

Leave the config/ customization part and error?

What is that your process to be and how you want the process to be flowing

Hello dear Raja.

Well basically, this client works with both scenarios: MTO and MTS.

I'm not the one who did customizing for initial sales orders... And I've never worked with theses scenarios before.

However, I cannot change customizing for sales orders right now since this client have been working with this parameters for too long !

I just wanna set a return process for these items !

These items have in MRP 3 vue (tcode: MM03) a strategy group "25" which is: Make-to-order for configurable material.

These items have also genral item categroy group "NORM" and item categroy group "NORM".

They have a MRP type "PD" (MRP) and an availibility check "02" (Individ.requirements)

Is it helpful ?

Regards

Bahia.

Hi

The movement types for reutrn deliveries are 651, 653, 655 and 657 and it cannot be 601. Please change the movement type in the schedule line category and try with another returns cycle/process.

Thanks,

i had done sales with WBS element, Delivery (PGI) done with batch and serial number and done the invoice.

I made return item category with special stock as "Q"(Project stock)

But while i am doing the PGR that time i am getting an error as Special stock Q is not supported please check the entries.

Raja

[Former Member]

Bahia,

I remember seeing the same case, and i think we have to do setting in OMBZ for movement type, i dont have SAP access now, Can you please check in OMBZ for reverse movement type

Thanks,

Raja

[Former Member]

Dear raja,

That's so kind from you to help !

I've never seen this tcode before.

But I don't believe this is what I need.

There are some movement types in there. But I think those are related to purchase orders not to sales orders.
