Stock transfer between stor loc. of same plant triggered by Sales Order

[Former Member]

Hello everyone

I need some input regarding triggerring Stock Transfer between 2 storage locations of the plant from a Sales Order.

Sales Org: ABCD

Plant: WXYZ

Stor Location: 0001 & 0002

Now here 0001 is the Picking location for the Delivery Document.

However 0002 is where all the stock is stacked.

Physically they both are different buildings in the same vicinity.

The Business wants the Sales Order to trigger the stock movement from 0002 to 0001 on a daily basis.

So from a end user prospective, they will move the stock from 0002 to 0001 for all the items needed to fulfill the Orders due for Shipment for that day.

What options do I have for this ?

Thanks

So you want to create a sales order and delivery with reference to the sales order to deliver the goods for daily picking from a different storage location against a different order? Sounds like double effort with two times deliveries daily, sounds ineficient.

Regardless, have you looked into STO functionality?

Sales orders for that may be more difficult to set up...

Possibly use Cost center order to issue the goods in transit (custom config) and allow GR via MIGO or RF goods reciept.

Well actually the Selling Org ABCD is of a different Company code .. it is a typical case of Intercompany Sales .. where the Plant WXYZ is belonging to another company code.

I have setup the Intercompany Sales Process .. and want to trigger the Stock movement as mentioned above.

I have configured the STO for storage location - stor. location in a Plant. ...

However I am struggling to trigger a STO from a Sales Order.

I tried using the Schedule Lines to trigger a Pur. Req ... however the Supplying Plant field remains blank (which is the same in this case as it is a stock movement between 2 locations of the same plant).

The flow looks somewhat like this

Sales Order -

---

> Stock Transfer PR in Plant WXYZ -

---

> Delivery Doc for the STO --- > MIGO to receipt the inventory in 0001 -

---

> Delivery DOc for Sales Order -

---

> Invoice for end customer --- > Intercompany Invoice

If anyone has automated creation of a STO from a Sales Order .. please advice

Thanks
