Adding serial number to stock transport order

[Former Member]

I've read in the SAP documentation that you can add equipment serial numbers to stock transport orders but I can't find any way to get this accomplished. Can anyone give me some guidance?

Thanks!

Customizing: Materials Management-> Purchasing-> Serial numbers->Determine Serial Number Profiles. Select the serial number profile which you use and add "POSL" to the serializing procedures. Serial usage can be set to none, optional, obligatory or automatic. Equipment requirement can be set to "proposal without equipment" or "always with equipment". If the serial usage setting for POSL is at least optional and the material in the purchase order is serialized, you will find a small button in the schedule lines of the purchase order in the delivery schedule tab, which allows you to add serial numbers.

Does anyone have any additional information on this? We did find BADI (BADI_SERIAL_IN_STO) that we thought would work but it's still not working. We don't want to assign the serial number at the time of delivery. It has to be at the time that the STO is created. Any thoughts?

Sunil...thanks for your response. Is this the only way that it can work? Do you have to assign at the delivery level? Our users want to do it when creating the stock transport.

I should add that when we try to create the stock transport order using ME27, select the line and then go to Item --> More Functions --> Serial Number, an error message comes up saying "This function not allowed here". Double-clicking the message brings up an explanation about a missing entry in table T168. I searched OSS and have found quite a few notes related to this table but none that have to do with serial numbers or transaction ME27.

SDW,

As per my understanding if its a stock transport order it should generate a outbound delivery (this can be done using VL10B, provided all your config is in place). Once you generate the delivery you can add the serials number at the delivery level.
