Schedule line getting confirmed when Ordered Quanity is greater than stock.

[Former Member]

Hi Sap Gurus,

We have an issue in one of the sales scenario.

In one of the sales orders the ordered quanity is purposely maintained greater than the stock at respective storage location(batch managed).

In this case the schedule line should not get confirmed and it should not allow delivery document creation.

But in the sales order the schedule lines are geeting confirmed and even the delivery document is getting created with picking request completion.

Could you please help to understand :

1. why the schedule lines are getting confirmed when ordered quantity > Inventory?

2. How do I stop delivery document creaton in this scenario?

Looking for a quick response.

Thanks in advance,

Bhaskar

1. Are you certain that there is not enough stock / receipts to cover the requirement? If it is a sales order, you should check CO09 with checking rule "A". Accessing CO09 with a different checking rule is not appropriate when dealing with sales orders.

2. If you are using checking rule "A", and CO09 is displaying insufficient available stock, then it is likely that the system is checking with RLT. Switch on the "Check without RLT" flag in OVz9 for the checking group / A combination.

3. If the system is still confirming the quantity, it suggests that no availability check is being executed; you need to ensure this is switched in the requirements class (Tx OVZG) & The Schedule Line Category (VOV6)

Hope this helps.

Hello Bhaskar,

Is Availability Check in your system considering Replenishment Lead time, if yes, then this is possible.

Check this IMG Link:

IMG - Sales and Distribution - Basic Functions - Availability Check and Transfer of Requirements - Availability Check with ATP Logic or Against Planning - Carry Out Control For Availability Check

Here check the RLT settings.

Also check settings under In/Outward Movements, where things like include Purchase Order can lead to confirmation of stock in Sales Order, despite physical inventory being present.

Hope this helps,

Thanks,
