Material Process

[Former Member]

Hi All,

We have a new building product that will get ordered and eventually gets sold to customers.This new item has a special casing which will be provided by

the supplier along with the main item.

What would be the correct way to keep track of this both main item and the casing in the system? We want to make sure both items stocks are recorded

correctly when received from the supplier and also when shipped to our customers.

Any input would be very helpful.

Thanks,

Meghna.

Hi,

   Do you sent the casing back to your supplier or you will send the same to your customer along with the material. Will your customers return the casing to you? Please clarify.

   In addition, please check the RTP process as explained in the help doc: Returnable Transport Packaging - Managing Special Stocks (MM-IM) - SAP Library  and the doc:

Thanks AKPT.

Whatever we received from the supplier, we send the same casing along with the material to our

customer.

Hi,

   In this case, you may create a new material code for the casing with packaging material type VERP. During GR, you may receive the casing as non-ordered material and receive to stock. You may also maintain the casing as free of cost item in the PO. In sales also, you may sales the item as FOC sales material.

   Else, during GR, you may do 501 M movement as explained in the RTP process document in my previous comment. After GI to customer, do 502 M (in MIGO_GI - Other) so that the RTP will be removed.
