Carry Out Mandatory Reporting Point Confirmation 
Prerequisites
You have set mandatory reporting point confirmation in Customizing.
Procedure
On the initial screen for confirmation, select the Reporting Point Confirmation indicator.
In the adjacent field, enter the reporting point for which you want to carry out the confirmation. If you do not enter a reporting point and post, the system lists all the existing reporting points. Select a reporting point.
If you want to confirm assembly scrap at a reporting point, choose Scrap .
With the mandatory reporting point function, you can confirm the assembly scrap at just one reporting point. The system calculates the yield for the reporting point you specified, backflushes these components, and posts the scrap. You can only carry out the confirmation for the current reporting point.
In the assembly confirmation, you can also confirm component scrap at the reporting point. The system then posts the specified quantity not as assembly scrap but as excess component consumption. The system also posts the production activities for the fitting/assembly of the components. You select this indicator if the components needed to produce the assembly in the current workstep have been damaged.
You now have various options:
Choose Post with Correction to correct the component data or the actual data. ( See also Posting with Correction of Components and Posting with Correction of Activities .)
Choose Details to change certain settings. You can set various indicators, depending on whether you want to post ordering costs (lot-size-independent costs) or post the goods receipt to another stock type.
Result
The reporting point confirmation generates a document log with the following individual documents:
Reporting point document for the successfully executed goods issue postings for the components.
Activity document(s).
If necessary, postprocessing documents for unsuccessful goods issue postings.

The simplest form of confirmation with mandatory reporting points: At each reporting point, the system posts the quantity 1 as good. After posting the goods receipt, the system resets the reporting point quantities to 0.
You get four postings and thus four document log documents: a goods receipt confirmation and a reporting point confirmation.
Scrap at Reporting Point 30:
1 |
1 |
0 |
GR=0 |
0 |
0 |
0 |
0 |
At each of the reporting points 10 and 20, the quantity 1 of a material is confirmed as good. Only between the reporting points 20 and 30, i.e. at reporting point 30, is the quantity recorded as scrap.
You get three confirmations: two reporting point confirmations and a scrap confirmation.
