Inventory During Opening Hours (BAdI)  

Use

You can implement a BAdI to determine the POS transactions from an external system for an inventory during opening hours. The system calls this implementation once, or several times, during the calculation of the book inventory for a physical inventory document.

In the BAdI implementation, you must ensure that the system determines the POS transactions for individual articles during the inventory of the article. You must also ensure that the POS transactions of the sales set are included correctly in the inventory of an article that is included as part of a sales set.

It makes sense to only determine those POS transactions that have been updated already in the SAP ERP system. You must also determine the exact posting time of the POS transactions in the SAP ERP system to determine which POS transactions are relevant.

Prerequisites

In Customizing for the Inventory, you have chosen the option POS Transactions by BAdI under Enhancement: Control of Store Physical Inventory for the Control of POS Data Determination setting.

Features

The POS transactions determined by BAdI are saved as standard in the WSTI_POS_EVENT database table. You can deactivate the save by activating the Do Not Save POS Transactions Determined by BAdI Setting under Enhancement: Control of Store Physical Inventory. To enable more detailed analysis of the calculation of the book inventory at counting time by the program R_SRS_PI_CALC_SHOW if an error is made, you can activate the Save POS Transactions setting under General settings for Inventory During Opening Hours.

Reorganize the database table WSTI_POS_EVENT regularly using the program R_SRS_PI_DELETE_POS_EVENTS.
