How to adjust very old material confirmation

[Former Member]

Dear Experts,

We have few spares which is struck in system from 2012 & yet not been cleared.

Due to this system shows material is in store.

As its very old transaction & we have already closed periods of 2012 & 2013.

as we have closed the books my finance team is not allowing to re open old periods (they don't want any backdated transactions, specially in closed books)

How to proceed in this situation? can we use inventory adjustment?

In above snap, selected item transaction is at problem (dated July2012)

Please let me know how to solve this inconsistency/mistake.

Regards,

Vishal Kambare.

Hi Vishal,

yes, please use inventory adjustment postings (similar to physical inventory) to correct the inventory situation.

Best regards,

Stefan

Hi Stephen,

I tried doing this but system only shows material which have Logistics Area ID.

I want to adjust those who do not have logistics area id.

Any idea?

Hi Vishal,

As per screenshot, i could see that stock type is Goods Issue , therefore Logistics area is not available. Here you have to first take inventory back to your log. area via adjustment confirmation against order:675.

But since period is locked, you will get the error message.

You have to perform "Set Process Control" and then only you can take the stock back and perform inventory adjustment.

Secondly it is very old document created in 2012, so once you maintain set process control, then create an incident to SAP for further postings.
