Request for Guidance on Material Loan Regularization in SAP

[Magdalene_Iremu]

We are currently facing a challenge in implementing a material loan process in SAP. These materials are typically semi finished goods used in the production process.

The process is that we have relationship with a third party or external company and we receive materials from them and then return the same materials at a later date.

This process is currently being handled outside of SAP. 

Given this, I wanted to reach out and ask if anyone has experience implementing or managing a similar process successfully within SAP.

Any insights, best practices, transaction codes, or suggestions for configuration would be greatly appreciated.

Best regards,

Hello @Magdalene_Iremu 

Have not tested the scenario in the system but as a solution you can create the material with material type - UNBW (Non valuated material) and receive that material in the system by using movement type 521 in transaction migo or create PO with UNBW material . Whenever you return the same material you can use the sale order with item category TANN, so that, that same material out from your gate without any cost as you are receiving the goods as a loan and at the time of receiving and you are not paying anything to vendor or third party.

Let me know if any clarification.
