 Changing Physical Inventory Documents

You can make the following changes to a physical inventory document:

  • In the document header

  • change the planned count date

  • set or remove the posting block

  • freeze the book inventory balance

  • create or change the physical inventory number

  • In an item still to be counted

  • change the stock type

  • change the count unit of measure

  • set the deletion indicator

  • Enter new items, provided no count has taken place

  • Delete the document

Please note when deleting:

  • If you set the deletion indicator for an item, the item remains in the document but cannot be processed. This will unblock the material.

  • If you delete a document, it is physically deleted if there are no inventory difference postings for its items. If a difference has been posted, the document is proof of the posting. Therefore, it is simply flagged for deletion. This means it can then be displayed, but no longer processed. The document is physically deleted when the next reorganization program is run.
