STO created against Sales Order

[Former Member]

Hi friends,

I'm working at solution to fulfill the following scenario: to create automatically STO from Plant A to Plant B when at Plant B are created n Sales Order and there is a stock requirement (Assuption: the Plant B is normally at Sock 0)

I though to implement the following solution:

- To use into Sales Order, the schedule line type CB in order to generate automatically Purchase request

- To transform n Purchase Request into one Transfer Order from Palnt A to Plant B

The problem is that using the schedule line type CB cause the reservation of the stock for the Sales Order and I can't assign the products entered at Plant B with the STO to other Sales Order/Customers

How can generate automatically PR/STO from Sales Order without stock resevation (STock special) for that Sales Order?

Many Thanks

Roberta

Hi Friend,

You need to just change your schedule line cateogory to CN from existing one ( CS).

It will allow you to bill other customers as well.

Hi,

I've tried with both CS and CN but when I save the Sales Order no Trasfer Order / Purchease Request is created!

What I have to do ?

Many thanks

Special stock indicator actually triggered from Item category -VOV7 or requirement type- ( sales order - procurement tab- requirement type).

you can deactivate the same for your requirement.

Check, what is the requirement type & item category in your case?

Are you using Individual purchase Order(IPO) scenario? You need to check for other implications as well.

In IPO scenario:-

Create sales order ( item category- TAB- where special stock ind- E=sales order stock) & requirement class/type-KEB with special indicator-E.

because of these settings, Sales order stock in IPO will be reserved against this Sales order & cant be sold to other customers directly.

But, in your scenario. you can try the third party settings instead of CB, check with the schedule line category: CS.

Have not tested this cycle in SAP. I would like you to test by doing slight modifications in std system.

Just now, I tried to maintain the Movement type in CS schedule line category, but its not allowing because its declared as not third party in "Item category" -

so going through third party process is ruled out. IPO will be the idle process, but it will reserve the stock against this SO which is std.
