MB1B Mvt Type 413 E - GL Account requires an assignment to a CO object

[Former Member]

Hi,

We are trying to transfer stock from one sales order to other, system is giving the error " GL Account requires an assignment to a CO Object". Movement type 413 E through MB1B. We are using MTO scenario.

The question is that we are giving both the sales order number (from and and to) whic are itself CO Object then why is the sytem asking for another assignment?

Kindly advise.

Thanks & regards.

If you are using valuated sales order stock with a 'S'tandard price for valuation for each sales order item, your transfer may be trying to write the price difference associated to a movement to a specific G/L account. The price for the same material under different sales orders with MTO can be caused by many reasons - lot size, changes to raw material prices etc.

If this G/L account is also a cost elements (i.e. defined in CO as a cost element_ it will need a cost object. You canuse OKBP to assign default cost objects for this and other variance/price difference accounts - or you may create a CO substitution rule.

If I am correct, you cannot divert one sale order stock to another sale order stock directly. Try to transfer to unrestricted first and from there again reserve for the other order.

Hi Lalit,

Thanks for the reply. We don't have any assignment in Sales Order Account Assignment Tab. Further we are not using project systems, however we are using Make to Order Scenario.

Hi,

Please check WBS element or internal order in your sales order account assignment tab. if you are using project system it can be a requirement. this account assignt needs to be enter while transfering stock.
