Stock category change in WM

[Former Member]

Hi gurus,

How can I change the stock category from available to block(S) for a material (WM managed) without changing the storage type, bin number?

Hi,

In addition to the above mentioned what you can do is to have the indicator "propose posting change at the source bin" on.

This will ensure that your posting change destination bin is same as the source bin.

Hi,

You can do a 344 in MM - IM for the material so that system will post the stock from un-restricted to Block.

Now once you post the above transaction in MM, system will generate a PCN (Posting Change notice) in WM.

You can process the same using transaction LT05 for changing the stock type from Un-res to Block stock.

Based on your customization settings, system will generate a Transfer order & confirms it.

Thanks & Regards,

Hi,

You should trigger this transfer posting in MM (MB1B or MIGO). The move is seen as a virtual move in WM so the stock should stay in the source bin. A posting change notice should be generated from the IM movement and in turn, the TO can be created for the PCN. Here two line items should be generated. The first item posts from it's current position to 922 (normally bin TR-ZONE) and the second line item posts from this 922 location back to the original bin. The second line item will also hold the change of stock category. If this is not happening, please check the movement type in WM config. It should have the source and destination defined as 922 TR-ZONE (for example) and it should have a shipment type of 'U' for posting change.

Hope this helps. Regards,
