Plant to Plant Transfers with Stock Transfer Orders 

In a company, goods movements do not only occur as goods issues and goods receipts. It may also be necessary to use internal stock transfers from plant to plant. To be able to generate a stock transfer using material requirements planning (MRP), you process the goods issue by an SD delivery and the goods receipt by an MM goods receipt.

Two new movement types have been created to post a stock transfer using MRP:

To post a stock transfer using MRP, proceed as follows:

  1. Create a stock transfer order in the receiving plant in MM

    2. (Logistics ® Materials Management ® Purchasing ® Purchase Order ® Create ® Vendor/Supplying Plant Known, or Transaction ME21N)

  2. Generate a delivery document in SD

    3. (Logistics ® Sales and Distribution ® Shipping and Transportation ® Outbound Delivery ® Create ® Collective Processing of Documents Due for Delivery ® Purchase Orders, or Transaction VL10B)

  3. Perform picking, packing, and posting of a goods issue in SD

    4. (Logistics ® Sales and Distribution ® Shipping and Transportation ® Outbound Delivery ® Change ® Single Document, or Transaction VL02N)

  4. Print an outgoing Nota Fiscal (Transaction J1B3N)
  5. Post a goods receipt in MM (Transaction MB0A), for example using movement type 861
