Whenever a goods movement takes place in the organisation, may it be in SD or MM , always a Movement type is associated.

So there are different movement types have been configured by SAP in the standard system.

This movement type has an influence on the Inventory management. Different Movement type influences differently the Inventory management. For example,with certain movement type Inventory of the goods goes up/increased, of the unrestricted stock, whereas with certain movement type inventory is reduced, etc.

When we sell in SD, our goods goes out and here we do PGI, means we are issueing some goods , so inventory is going down.Here movement type 601 is used, means with movement type 601 , inventory of the unrestricted stock is reduced.

When any goods are returned by the customer due to complaint, we create a return order, a return delivery and a PGR. This received goods goes to the block stock/restricted stock first and not included in the unrestricted stock. Here, movement type 651 is associated. So infiuence is that , any goods movement taking place with movement type 651, the quantity of block stock is increased.

Similarly, different movement type has got different influence on the inventory management or inventory is controlled accordingly.

Most of the Movement tyep used in SD are within the range 601 to 699.

Dear Balu,

There are a lot of movement types available and we use many of them in different business scenarios. As a thumb rule all Movement types from 601 to 699 belong purely to SD. Some of commonly used SD movement types are:

601 Goods issue for delivery (Shipping)

In Shipping, this movement type is created automatically with the Goods issue for delivery function.

The quantity is taken from unrestricted-use stock.

Possible special stock indicators:

E, K, Q

603 Goods issue for stock transport order (Shipping) with additional

item

If you issue goods for a stock transport order in Shipping using movement type 641, you can use this movement type to assign an extra item to the order.

The ordered material is transferred to the stock in transit of the receiving plant. The material for the additional item is transferred from unrestricted-use stock in the issuing plant to stock in transfer in the receiving plant.

You can also use this movement type without referencing a purchase order.

Possible special stock indicators:

None

605 Goods receipt for a stock transport order (Shipping) with
