Dear SAP Gurus..,

There is two plants PLT1 and PLT2

Plant 1 is procuring the materials for Plant 2.

Requirements is generating in Plant 2 and Goods Reciept and Invoice verification in plant2.

But only finalisation of the purchase order with the vendor and releasing the Purchase order in plant1.

How to map the same scenario in SAP..

Please explain with details by step by step:

As per my Knowlege, I am thinking to do in the following manner

Is it can be acheived thorough Special Procurement process (Procurement in Another plant ) by MRP settings. or through stock transfer ..

Please let me know any other ways to do the same.

In case any thing is please help me , as it is required very urgently for me

Thanks in Advance

HI,

Pl tell where is the actual purchase order generated(created)...

As far as i could understand plant 1 is just acting like a purchasing organization for your plant 2...

Where is the actual ownership of the material : plant 1 or plant 2....

One possibility for you on which i am myself working...

If plant 1 has the owner ship of the material and plant 2 physical receives the material for doing some services for plant 1

Define plant 1 as a MM plant (Principal) do all the MM settings for plant 1 only.

Define plant 2 in the enterprise structure. And treat this plant as a vendor for plant 1 giving some services (eg. manufacturing) to plant 1...

Revert for further help.

Hi Pritvi

Owner ship of the material plant 2 only

Just only creation of purchase order and price fixation will be done by plant 1

Hi,

For your scenario to be mapped in SAP,you have to use Cross ccode STO.

For that to happen your plants are to be assigned to different ccodes(As Invoice verification is to be done in recieving plant)

Create material in both the plants(Purchasing and accg view for receiving plant/sales andMRPaccg view in issuing plant)

In customizing for STO,assign a CMR to the receiving plant and sales area data for issuing plant)

Asign a documenmt type(NB) for the combination of supplying and receiving plants.

A valid delivery type for supplying plant(NLCC)

Create PO with NB doc type and check the shipping tab which will be defaulted with the data from your CMR.

Create delivery in VL10B and PGI in VL02.

Crete Billing in VF01/04.

Do GR in receiving plant in MIGO.

Create invoice in MIRO.

Hi,

You can achieve through Stock transfer process.For Exam. X is the material created for Plant 1 and Plant 2.

Now you have to maintain the MRP Parameters for material X in both plant.

In the MRP 1 view you have to maintain the special procurement type 40 for the plant 1 and for the plant 2 leave blank this field.

Now when you will run the MRP for this material in plant 2,system will generate the PRs for external procurement and for the plant 1 system will generate the PR for Stock transfer.

I hope it will help.

Hi Manish

Without stock transfer , any other process ,please let me know.

Because I am going by stock transfer means , only one plant will do the GR and IR

and then I have to do the stock transfer.

I wanted to recieved directly the materials in that plant
