PGI not consuming packaging material from inventory

Former Member

Hi all,

I have packaging material X with no inventory in the system. I am using this material X in a handling unit, so when I perform my goods issue, I expect it to decrease the inventory of this material by 1 unit. Since the inventory levels of this material is 0, there is no material to consume and I therefore shouldn't be allowed to post my goods issue. However this is not the case and I am able to PGI with no problems.

How can I fix this?

Thanks,

Check in t.code OMS2, whether the material type has been checked for update quantity/value fields for required valuation area.

The boxes must be checked, you can check and create new cycle and test again.

Hi,

I've checked and the update quantity/value fields are ticked.

I've also set 'gen pack. matl item' in my delivery type too. However when I goods issue, it is still not consuming my packaging materials from inventory.

Does the storage location have to be HU managed?
