Dear,

Whenever u do any transaction relating to STOCK u need to have CUSTOMER in this case ur customer is receiving Plant so u need to assign a dummy customer to this plant and also u need VENDOR who will send goods in this case Supplying Plant is Vendor so U also need to assign a dummy vendor to issueing Plant and if ECXISABLE Sale the need to maintain data in J1ID.

As for sale area is concered u know to do any transaction in SAP u need to have SALES AREA that is what need to assign to supplying plat.

Regards

Hi,

We have to setup a sales Line to get the Material from the Supplying material to Receiving material

In the process of setting Sales line we will assign the SUPPLYING PLANT to the SALES ORGANISATION + DISTRIBTION CHANNEL

assign a customer created in supplying plant sales area to receiving plant

We will create a INTERCOMPANY CUSTOMER in the SUPPLYING SALES ORG with the IC01 account group and assign this to the RECEIVING SALES ORGANISATION to facilitate the Billing, so while doing the Intercompany Billing this customer will be used.

-Assigning Sales are to supplying Plant is nothing but to activate the specific SALES AREA allowed to process the Intercompany billing. - INTERCOMPANY SALES

- Assigning Dummy Customer number to the receiving plant, is to trigger the partner fucntions & ship to address to where goods has to be dispatched.

You cant directly issue the goods to the Plant , that is why , you treate the receiving plant as a customer & assign this in respective plant details in IMG, so that whenever STO is created, from this assignment system can trigger delivery address from the receiving plant (not from dummy customer address tab) & partner fucntions will be taken as reference to create delivery to this plant as Ship to Party & billing. - INTERCOMPANY STO

similarly in INTERCOMPANY SALES, you cant directly bill to the Sales Organization, that is where - you create an Internal Customer & assign this to the respective Sales organization ( in which Intercompany Sales Order is created) in IMG.

Hope it clears,
