Hello SCN,
I would just like to ask what is the difference of movement types 251 and 201?
Can they be used for sales?
What are the pros and cons in using both movement types?
Please respond in a clear manner.
Your prompt response will be much appreciated.
Thanks.
Request clarification before answering.
Movement Type 201 : Goods issue for a cost center
The goods can only be withdrawn from unrestricted-use stock.
Possible special stock indicators:
u2022 K: Goods withdrawal from consignment stock
u2022 P: Goods withdrawal from the pipeline
If you have withdrawals from consignment stock and from pipeline, payables to suppliers ensue.
Movement Type 251 : Goods issue for sales (without customer order)
Use this movement type if you have not entered a customer order in SD. In the standard system, the movement is assigned to a cost center.
The goods can only be withdrawn from unrestricted-use stock.
Hope this helps.

Hi
Please respond in a clear manner.
Your prompt response will be much appreciated
.
These are highly condemnable
What do you mean by clear manner?
Friends who know about query respond to it and share whatever knowledge they have
Most of the times it will be clear only and you cannot grasp it properly because you may be unclear
No One needs your appreciation and you cannnot be expect them to be prompt
You are not running a office to expect others to things promptly
Regarding what you asked
I have knowledge about Movement type 251
One area this is used in IS RETAIL
In Retail say RELIANCE in Chennai city has about 15 outlets
All these 15 outlets will have point if sale system that is their billing system or billing machine
All these billing machines are connected to SAP system in the backend and SAP system is available only in the headoffice of RELIANCE
Now take an article say PEPSI 200 ml tin
Across all 15 counters say in a particular day they have sold about 725 tins
Now this sale information comes to the centralised SAP through IDOCS and gets updated
When such sales information comes in SAP and an article document that is material document ( to update inventory) and a billing document ( to update financial accounts) gets created
This material document gets created with Movement type 251 which reduces the warehouse stock and post it to sales
We define in the POS ---SAP integration config this movement type as 251
I dont have an SAP access right now to check what is movement type 201
Regards
Raja
