Trading procurement through sales order

[Former Member]

Dear Experts

I need your help to configure the below scenario

My client is a stockist,

Suppose he has a stock of X material say 100 units, and he recieves a order for 120 units of

X material,

In this case a normal sales order will confirm 100 Qty and pass a requirement of 20 units to MD04

however my client doesnt manufacture anything, They just buy from vendor and sell it across.

I need your suggestions to configure the above scenario

1. How do i pass the requirement for Procurement to MM?

2. In this case how would the schedule lines will be calculated?

3. In case i dont want to generate a sales order Specific stock, how would the requirement be passed?

Please revert......

Regards

Sudhir

Adding to the above comments, it also depends on Procurement Type maintained in MRP2 view of material master.

Dear, MRP planning is not only for production, but also for external procurement (purchasing).

Your scenario is a standard MTS scenario.

It can be implemented with MRP if you don't want sales order specific purchasing.
