Use

For the counted inventory document items, you can evaluate the size of the relevant count difference or see whether the count difference exceeds a specific value. To do this, you must either enter a difference quantity as of which the item should be listed, or a difference value. The two selection criteria are mutually exclusive. In other words, you cannot perform evaluations according to both criteria simultaneously.

Prerequisites

You must have created a physical inventory using the Create Physical Inventory function, and counted the inventory using Entering Count Results for Physical Inventory where inventory differences occurred.

Procedure

  1. From the SAP menu, select Logistics ® Central Functions ® Handling Unit Management ® Physical Inventory ® Analysis of Differences.
  2. In the Handling Unit Selection area, enter at least the Plant and a Storage Location that is HU-managed.

Restrict the selection of handling units further, since a selection restricted simply to plant and storage location can require a long time, depending on the number of existing handling units.

The other selection criteria are:

You can also select other analysis criteria, such as whether you want to display an evaluation for a quantity-based variance as a percentage, or an exceeded value in a desired currency.

Note

If you do not agree with the count result entry, you can use the Flag HU for Recount indicator to flag handling units for a recount. To do this, select the highest-level handling unit and choose Flag HU for Recount. When you save the physical inventory document, you can recount this handling unit using the Entering Count Results for Physical Inventory function.

  1. Save your entries.

Result

The physical inventory is released for clearing if differences occurred during entry of the quantity counted.
