Introduction:
Now a days multiple warehouses are connected to a single plant where stock transfer happens from one storage location to another storage location which helps in efficient procurement strategies. Here we can usually post without value since the transferred material is managed with in the same plant and therefore has the same valuation data as before. In this blog post, I will be discussing Intra Company STO with in the plant between two EWM managed warehouses i.e. supplying as well as receiving plant are same.
We can Transfer the goods between Storage locations in two ways:
Configuration:
STO FLOW:
Below mentioned three steps are mandatory fields to obtain the shipping tab in the PO:
These are the mandatory steps we need to maintain to get the shipping tab.
Configuration Path:
Define Shipping Data for Plants:
SPRO –> IMG –> Material Management –> Purchasing –> Purchase order –> Set up Stock Transport order –> Define Shipping Data for Plants
We can assign the customer in the supplying Plant for this process. (i.e., the supplying and Receiving Plant are same for this process.)
Configure Delivery Type & Availability Check Procedure by Plant:
SPRO –> IMG –> Material Management –> Purchasing –> Purchase order –> Set up Stock Transport order –> Assign Delivery Type and Checking Rule
Assign Document Type, One-Step Procedure, under delivery Tolerance:
SPRO –> IMG –> Material Management –> Purchasing –> Purchase order –> Set up Stock Transport order –> Assign Document Type, One-Step Procedure, Under delivery Tolerance
Activate Stock Transfer Between Storage Locations:
SPRO –> IMG –> Material Management –> Purchasing –> Purchase Order –>Set up Stock Transport Order–>Set Up Stock Transfer Between Storage Locations–>Activate Stock Transfer Between Storage Locations
Configure Delivery Type & Availability Check Procedure by Storage Location:
SPRO –> IMG –> Material Management –> Purchasing –> Purchase Order –> Set up Stock Transport Order –> Set Up Stock Transfer Between Storage Locations –>Configure Delivery Type & Availability Check Procedure by Storage Location
In this Step we can maintain
In this step we can create new delivery type by copying from the standard delivery type.
SPRO –>IMG –> Logistics Execution –> Shipping –> Deliveries –>Define Delivery Types
Here I create the new delivery Type as “SL” by copying from the standard one “NL”.
Here I am assigning the Supplying Plant, Supplying storage location and Delivery Type to Document Type.
Define Shipping Data for Stock Transfers Between Storage Locations:
SPRO –> IMG –> Material Management –> Purchasing –> Purchase Order –> Set up Stock Transport Order –> Set Up Stock Transfer Between Storage Locations –>Define Shipping Data for Stock Transfers Between Storage Locations
In this step we can assign Sales organization, Distribution Channel, Shipping Point and Division to the Plant and later select the Plant and click on the Storage location.
By maintaining the data click on the save button.
Define Rule for Determination of Shipping Point:
SPRO –> IMG –> Logistics Execution –>Shipping –> Basic Shipping Functions –>Shipping Point and Goods Receiving Point Determination–>Set Up Storage-Location-Dependent Shipping Point Determination–>Define Rule for Determination of Shipping Point
Assign Shipping Points According to Storage Location:
SPRO –> IMG –> Logistics Execution –> Shipping –> Basic Shipping Functions –>Shipping Point and Goods Receiving Point Determination –>Set Up Storage-Location-Dependent Shipping Point Determination –>Assign Shipping Points According to Storage Location
Assign Warehouse Number to Plant and Storage Location:
SPRO –> IMG –> Enterprise Structure –> Assignment –> Logistics Execution–> Assign Warehouse Number to Plant and Storage Location
Assign Warehouse Numbers from Logistics Execution
SPRO –> IMG –> SCM Extended Warehouse Management–> Extended Warehouse Management–> Interfaces –> ERP Integration –> General Settings –> Assign Warehouse Numbers from Logistics Execution
Map Storage Locations from ERP System to EWM
SPRO –> IMG –> SCM Extended Warehouse Management–> Extended Warehouse Management–> Interfaces –> ERP Integration –> Goods Movements–> Map Storage Locations from ERP System to EWM
Testing:
| Details | Supplying Plant | Receiving Plant |
1 | Plant | 5PL1 | 5PL1 |
2 | Warehouse no | 5EWM | 4EWM |
3 | Product | 7243 | 7243 |
4 | Shipping point | 5SP1 | 5SP1 |
5 | Purchase organization | 5POR |
|
6 | Customer | 1029900577 |
|
7 | Sales Area (Sorg/D.ch/Div) | 5SPO/01/01 |
|
8 | Storage Location | AFS | AFS1 |
| ECC Delivery type | ECC Item Category | EWM Doc Category | EWM Doc type | EWM Item type | EWM Item Category |
Outbound | SL | NLN | PDO | OUTB | ODLV | DLV |
Inbound | EL | ELN | PDI | INB | IDLV | DLV |
Step:1
Now create the Material.
Material – 7244
Step:2
The Material is Extended to both Storage locations in MMSC.
Step:3
Now Create the Purchase Order in ME21N:
Stock Transp. Order created under the number 4500006531.
Step 4:
Check the stock in Stock overview in MMBE.
Step 5:
Here I am creating the Outbound Delivery in VL10B Transaction Code.
Select the PO Number and click on the Background button.
Another line will be generated with Green Mark. Select that line and click on the Delivery log creation Tab.
Place the Cursor and click on the documents button the Outbound Delivery Number will be displayed.
The Outbound Delivery Number is – 80004086.
Step 6:
Check the delivery with Plant and storage location got triggered and successfully distributed to EWM in VL02N
Step 7:
Go to /N/SCWM/PRDO
Create the warehouse task and confirm the warehouse task
Confirm the warehouse order
After clicking on the Goods Issue the Status changed to “Completed” and Outbound delivery was generated
Step :8
We have maintained Output type SPED to trigger inbound delivery after GoodsIssue has been completed for intra-company STO's outbound delivery
Step 9:
Check the stock has deducted from the AFS storage location in MMBE
Step:10
Check for the PO history using ME23N & can check the Outbound delivery number in the Reference column i.e. 80004086
Step:11
Check the inbound delivery got created with reference to reference to outbound delivery in the PO confirmations tab
Step:12
Check the inbound delivery in VL32N whether it is successfully distributed to EWM or not.
Step:13
Go to /N/SCWM/PRDI and process the delivery
Create the warehouse task and confirm the warehouse task
Confirm the warehouse order
Step:14
Check the stock in MMBE for material 7244 in AFS1 storage location
Conclusion:
This blog post walks you through the creation of the Intra STO with in the plant process and the key parameters that need to be checked and referred to while performing an Intra STO with in the plant between Two EWM managed warehouses and various steps involved in performing the scenario.
Thank you for reading the post, please share thoughts and feedback.
This is my personal observation based on requirements I worked on, and this blog is based on S4 HANA 2020 version sandbox.
