 Stock Transfer Using Stock Transport Order

Use

There are two processes available to enable you to transfer materials from one plant to another:

Prerequisites

To process the goods issue in Shipping (LE-SHP), the following prerequisites must be fulfilled:

  • In Customizing for Purchasing , you have assigned a delivery type to the purchasing document type. If the document type does not have a delivery type, you can post the goods issue only in Inventory Management.
  • In Customizing for Purchasing , you have maintained the customer number of the receiving plant.
  • In Customizing for Sales & Distribution , you have maintained the shipping point determination.
  • In the material master record, you have maintained shipping data.

If the document type contains a delivery type but another requirement is missing (for example, shipping data), you receive either a warning message or an error message (depending on the system configuration) when you try to enter the stock transport order.

Features

The transfer of stock using a stock transport order allows you to:

  • Plan a goods receipt in the receiving plant

  • Enter a vendor in the stock transport order

  • Enter the stock type of the issuing and receiving plant

  • Enter the delivery costs in the stock transport order on the Conditions tab page

  • Enter the goods issue using a delivery via shipping (LE-SHP)

  • Monitor the entire process using the purchase order history
