Using Stock Transfer Orders for Subcontractors

[Former Member]

We currently purchase a product from a subcontractor.

When the order is placed with the SC for the top level code, it produces a requirement for an intermediate code we make, and supply to them.

We supply via ME2O

Also, the subcontractor places a Purchase Order for the same code. (they do this as they are on a different system and to track their requirements)

They require that all of their PO numbers are placed on all paperwork being delivered to them.

Due to the complex production process, the order does not be completed in one run, meaning multiple deliveries across the same order number, this makes it difficult to track when their PO has been fully delivered.

What I need

1. We place order for top level code

2. Orders generate a requirement in MD04 for intermediate code

3. Subcontractor place Purchase Order for intermediate code

4. If this order is placed on our system, it REDUCES the open requirement

5. This order then can be shipped, and the stock appear at the subcontractor

So

1. As it currently stands orders are with the subcontractor for the top level code, which generates a requirement for the intermediate code here in MD04

WE DO NOT SAVE THEIR PO ON OUR SYSTEM

2. An order is placed by the subcontractor for 500pcs of the intermediate code, this is entered (how to enter? STO/PO?)

This consumes the requirements closest (the lines in red)

3. From the order we create a delivery which when posted, reduces our plant stock, and increases subcontractor stock (yellow)

The lines in red disappear (SubReq consumed, PO delivered)

4. Final outcome
