Safety stock Warning message ?

[Former Member]

Hello Friends,

Need some help in creating a new functionality,Currently our customers can order a large quantity for any given material. There is no check in place that warns the customer service rep (CSR) that this will stock us out or that this order is 1-2 times our safety stock. I would like to get a function in SAP so that at order entry, if a CSR enters a quantity that is more than 50% of our safety stock, they will receive a warning stating that this could wipe out the inventory for other customers.

I would like to be able to set-up this functionality for a certain set of materials that have safety stock and that are active and high-volume materials.

Please advice what configuration changes needs to be done in order to fullfill this requirement.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Mohammed

there are no configuration changes. I hope the following would work.

1. How do you identify high volume materials.

2. How do you identify Active materials.

You must find a way to do these or choose some field in the material master for which this check needs to be performed.

Once this is done you can write code in MV45AFZB to perform the check at VBAP level.

Thanks
