In intercompany sales, is delivery takes in between the plants or the supplying plant directly delivers the customer .

If both the cases are correct can any one explain me in which scenario we move materials to receiving plant rater than customer?

Dear hasan,

Let us understand by an example to understand intercompany sales . Suppose there are two company codes namely 1000 and 2000. A customer may place an order for goods in sales organization belonging to company code 3000. However, the goods may be manufactured by a delivering plant belonging the company code 1000. A sales order is created indicating delivering plant of company code 1000. The sales organization then invoices the customer for the materials purchased. SAP R/3 automatically creates an intercompany billing document at the same time as the customeru2019s billing document is created. This intercompany invoice is sent from the delivering plant to the selling sales organization.

As a rule of thumb, when dealing with different company codes, one may find a need to transfer stock between two different company codes. However, if the stock be transferred within the same company code, there is no need for an intercompany transaction. But in case the stock is transferred between different company codes, a transfer of value occurs and is an intercompany sale.

I guess you are getting confused between Intercompany Sales and Intercompany STO.

Intercompany Sales - Where customer of a company is served by the plant assigned to another co. code

Intercompany STO - Transfer of goods between plants assigned to diff. co. codes.

For more information pls. search the internet.

Thanks
