Return to supplier process in case of replaced Goods

[Aicha_000]

Dear SAP Experts,

In case of supplier return with PO Return, if the supplier propose to replace the items returned with new ones which have differents caractéristiques (Batch, Shelf Life..etc) How do I integrate those matrials 

1- Create PO QTY = 300, Good receipt

2- PO Return  with Qty 100, Good issue  MVT TYPE 161

3- if the supplier raplace the 100 quantity with new ones (New bathes & Caracteristics), how to enter those materials in the system ?

1. Return PO means -- You have 161--then Credit memo to be posted -- You may have done the first 2 steps --Now if the vendor is supplying the materials as a replacement -- only option is to create a new PO or 2nd line item on the same PO as the same amount as created return PO-- then perform 101 with new characteristics -- and post the invoice as the same amount as credit memo

You could save yourself from posting credit memos and invoices if you have checked the free indicator for both lines while creating the PO and before posting 161.

Dear @jagdeepsingh83, Yes credit Memo will bedone for the 100 QTY returned, and I think the only solution I have is the create new PO for the replaced material and do GR 101 with new batches and caracteristics, Thank you

Hi,

If the material master already exists and it is just new batch or characteristics then you just need to update the Material master for the Characteristics in Classification view of MM. For batch you have two options one you can create the new batch while doing GR or can create through a t code MSC1N.

Thanks,
