Use

This stock transfer procedure reduces the corresponding stock type at the issuing storage location and increases the same stock type at the receiving storage location. At plant level, the stock level does not change, except that the stock is distributed differently among the storage locations in the plant. The system does not create an accounting document for the material document.

Activities

Choose the relevant movement type to enter the transfer posting, for example, 311 (Transfer posting of unrestricted use stocks from one storage location to another). Maintain the data as required and save the document.

If the receiving storage location does not yet exist in the material master record, it is automatically created, provided that automatic creation of storage locations is allowed in this plant.
