Define Default Values (SAP Library - Inventory Management and Physical Inventory)

Define Default Values

In this step, you specify the default values for the following functions for each plant:

allow goods movements for reservations

delete reservations

create storage-location stock data automatically for reservations

Allow movements for reservations

You can only post a goods movement with reference to a reservation if the Movement allowed indicator is set in the reservation item.

You set this indicator as described below:

when creating the reservation

In so doing, goods movements involving this reservation are immediately allowed.

In this step, you can define whether the indicator is to appear as a default value or not.

when making a manual change to the reservation

through the reservations management program

In this step, you can define a limit specifying for how long movements are allowed. The management program sets the Movement allowed indicator for all reservation items whose requirements date lies within this limit.

Delete reservations

The management program sets the deletion indicator for reservation items whose requirements date is earlier than the number of days specified here.

Create storage-location stock data automatically for reservations

When this indicator is set, the storage-location stock data is automatically created when a reservation is posted. This applies both to planned outward movements and planned receipts.

Default settings

The standard R/3 System comes with the following default settings:

The indicator Goods movement for reservation allowed is set when a reservation is entered.

The indicator Goods movement for reservation allowed is set automatically 10 days before the requirements date.

The deletion indicator is set automatically 30 days after the requirements date.

The storage location stock data is created automatically

Activities

Maintain the general defaults for the reservation.
