Valuated project stock not allowed with customer stock

Dear Experts,

we would like to know if you have any experiences on managing sales order stocks with reference to a PS project for which the "Project stock" indicator is settled on "Valuated stock".

The process is the following: our company provides services on customers' parts. For this reason a returns and repair process should be implemented, and parts received in sales order stock. However we would like to refer the repair orders to a PS WBS. The project should have a valuated stock. The system, unfortunately, doesn't allow to post good issues from the repair orders (Message no. KI346 Valuated project stock not allowed with customer stock: The entered WBS element ... manages a valuated project stock. At the same time, a sales order stock is managed on the sales order item. This combination is not allowed since different valuation methods within a project are not allowed.).

Any idea on how to combine these two requirements is appreciated.

Hi

Could you check with the item category (lets say TAN) configuration that is used in Sale order. You have a option of including special stock indicator (Q) over there. Also you can link up WBS element as account assignment with sale order and thus can maintain project specific stock related to sale order. Here your customer becomes a project and sale order has reference to project and stock will be maintained for project. When you do PGI with respect to sale order, system picks up stock from specifed WBS element stock.

Why do you want to use both sales order and project stock? Why cant you use only sales order stock and use only networks for your repair process.

Because we need to manage long term contracts with customers as projects in PS module, both for controlling and logistics purposes.

Repairs are a part of these contracts. We would like, for example, to buy parts, consumables, create manufacturing orders in PP with reference to the same WBS, that identifies the entire contract. Corporate requirement is to have all projects with "valuated project stock". The standard repair process allows you to post customer material returns in sales order stock. Unfortunately it is not allowed the good issue of the repaired product, due to the above mentioned error.
