hi,

you may also do a manual physical inventory if the process is not very tidious. LX23 is the best possible option.

As an alternative manual PI can be done .for thsi you may have to maintain the following settings if need be

1)WM-> Activities -> PI->DEFAULT VALUES-data to be printed -entry screens

2)WM-> Activities -> Differences & Doc limit. WM movement type for posting inv(stock to be added to IM) ,clear stock (stock to be deducted from IM) and the max no of items per doc.Standard movements are 711 to clear stock (to be difined for your WH)and 712 to add stock(to be defined for your warehouse).

3) You need to define and assign number range for your WH

Remember LX23 also does a physical inventory (batch job) and the session will not work without these settings.

a)Create a PI doc LI01N

b) Select the bis you want to count

c) activate

d)count results LI11N

e)Clear differences LI20

In your case you may have to psot zero count in all the bins .

Stock Comparison Inventory Management / Warehouse Management

Description

Using this report you can generate an inventory comparison between the IM System (Inventory Management) and the WM System (Warehouse Management).

On the selection screen, you can limit the area for comparison by entering the plant / storage location, plant / warehouse number or only the warehouse number.

In addition to specifying the area, you can also determine the extent of information to be issued. Here you have three options:

1. "With bin inventory"

In addition to generating the corresponding stock figures, you can also have a list of the corresponding WM bin quantities included.

2. "All data on material"

Even if only one difference occurs in one of the listed combinatations of material / batch / special stock indicator / supplier, all material combinations are listed. This can be very helpful when searching for errors.

3. "Clear differences"

If you mark this field, the system will generate a batch input session. By starting the batch input session, the differences to be cleared are removed in the IM system. Negative WM stock figures and stock differences in returns will not be cleared.

If you want to have a batch input file generated for the purpose of clearing the differences, it is important, for consistency reasons, that the materials in the respective warehouse are blocked in order that postings affecting stock figures can be prevented.

CAREFUL: If you generate this session, all the material stocks belonging to the respective warehouse number are blocked completely, that is, for the duration of the program, no postings affecting the stock in the warehouse will be possible!

Prerequisites

The comparison is also possible for warehosue numbers managed on a decentralized basis.

Output

You receive a list with various materials. The list contains the following information, for example:

The first line contains the plant, storage location, warehouse number, material number, total stock in inventory management, total stock in the warehouse, and the difference between the stocks.

The following line contains the first combination of batch / special stock indicator / supplier (or sales document and item number for sales order stock) and stock category (Q,R,S, ), the stock figures in Inventory Management, in Warehouse Management, and the difference.

If a batch input session is to be generated, the list contains a note in the log as to whether or not a session has been generated or behind the pushbutton "non-postable stocks", which materials could not be cleared because of negative stock figures or because they belong to returns stock.
