What should we do if we can not fullfill TO qty ?

[Former Member]

Hi all

     We use ECC 6.0 and just use SAP WM

     We have case like this : We use reservation MB21 and then MIGO ( Good Issue ) to create TR, let just say we create reservation and then TR for article A with qty 5 EA. Then we create TO ( LT04 ) but somehow in WH only 3EA can be confirmed.

     I know we can create another TO for 2EA but the case is there are no more stock in WH. With MIGO the IM stock already GI'ed and in the WM we still need to GI another 2EA.

     Already tried to change TR but system not allowed. What should we do ? What we want is to cancel 2EA in the IM and then scrap 2 EA or just GI to costcenter.

Thanks and Regards

Your story is confusing, as it is unclear if you have a real inconsistency between IM (5EA ) and WM (3EA).

Further you missed the point that a single goods issue for 5 EA is not really different to two good issues ( 3 EA + 2EA) .

If you have just 3 in the warehouse, then you cannot issue 3EA and scrap further 2EA, you will just stay in front of the same problem finally, as any movement created for a warehouse managed storage location will automatically reflect in WM too.

There is only one standard way to clear inconsistencies: transaction LX23 which makes your IM stock equal to your WM stock.

But before you do that you should be clear about the stock situation. You should know how much you have in IM, how much you have in WM, and how much you have physically in the warehouse.

Hi Jurgen,

     Thanks for your input, let me re-phrase the situation first in WM and IM have the same qty ie : 5EA. Then when we use MIGO for 5 EA the IM qty will be decrease into 0 right ? then TO created for 5 EA, but when picker see the actual goods there are only 3 goods with good condition. So the TO will be confirmed with 3EA right ? so what will happen with 2EA that broken / damage ?? There will be no additional stock for that article.

Thanks before

okay in this case you can cancel your original goods issue in MIGO and do 2 others, ,3 for the cost center and 2 to scrap.

Hi Jurgen

     Thanks, Is that the only possible solution ? this case can be frequent... we actually want that as the last solution.

Thanks

You can configure your difference codes in the TO so that the EA go the scraping interface instead of the destination.

That way you can clear the 2 EA in LI21.

Hi Funata

If you create a TR for 5 but only a TO for 3 then you can amend the TR using LB02 to the picked qty processed. Then use MBRL to amend the material document.

MB51 will then show qty of 5 with 221 mvt and then qty of 2 with mvt 222. The reservation will be reset to 5 required, 3 withdrawn. So an open qty of 2 will remain for future picking

Hope this helps

Actually standard solution for this is confirming the TO with difference.
In this case the missing 2 PCS would go to storage type 999 and dynamic storage bin
address as your picking TO number.

When you finish the process you will have this situation:
- 3 PCS confirmed for your reservation
- 2 PCS sent to 999 storage type - "TO number" storage bin
- Then do a reversal of your material document for 2 PCS and close the reservation for the missing 2 PCS
- Close open transfer requirements, LL01 or LB11, or any LBxx that suits you

- Then you can clear the positive quantity from 999 by LI21 during Phys.Inv.

This should be clean and leaves no problems behind.

Unless you have a HU managed warehouse... then you have zero standard ways.

Then we create TO ( LT04 ) but somehow in WH only 3EA can be confirmed.

Why? Because WM had 5 EA but there is only 3 of physical stock, or WM only had 3 EA in the first place.

>> No we use SU but not activate HU

>> Yes, only 3 goods are good and 2 are damage.
