IM movement type

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I am getting a error while creating a TO from PCN in LU04.

This error is coming because both source data (mat,plant,stloc,stock cat ) and destination data (mat,plant,stloc,stock cat ) are same.

I checked and i found that this pcn is being created for 311(IM) and 309(WM) movement type.

In omlr table there is no direct assignment of 311(ref mov type ) to WM mov type.

So why this PCN is getting created for 311 movement type ?

But in "Assign WM Movement Type References to IM Movement Types"

Here 311 mvt type is assigned to 311(ref) , 312(stock transfer) and 309(transfer posting).

So please somebody help me to understand this assignment.

Regards,

Your settings are OK, this practically means that if you use IM mov.typ.311 that your TO for stock transfer will use mov.type 312 in WM and that your WM movement type in case of posting changes will be 309.

What is basically the issue? Can you show the screen with the message?

There is no need to perform a posting change if you don't change anything, so it's not logical that you need one.

Who is actually creating this posting change in IM?
This person or program actually need to specify movement type for posting change.

Default is 309 in IM too but you can do it without problems with 311 too.
I have used both mv.types in my RF transactions using BAPI-s, and they both
work fine by standard IM/WM reference settings.

If you could provide more details I could be able to help more.
