Serial numbers for sales order stock not captured in ERP

[former_member635409]

Hello,

Whenever we post GR for the sales order stock in the EWM, we do not see serial numbers in ERP that were captured in EWM for that sales order stock.

This particularly happens when GR is posted for external vendor procurement. If we post GR for the make-to-order production order of serialised material; we can very well see SNs in both the systems. As per process we first capture all necessary SNs in EWM via RFUI for the qty to be GRed and then we post the GR.

Any idea if there are any settings which will show SNs for sales order stock in ERP.

I further checked that none of the serial number relevant tables gets populated for the sales order stock.

Thanks,

Ritesh

Hi,

"This particularly happens when GR is posted for external vendor procurement. If we post GR for the make-to-order production order of serialised material; we can very well see SNs in both the systems."

I suppose these are not the same materials? And that would mean that you have different serial number requirements maintained for these materials. Where you have to maintain them depends on your system. What do you have? ECC as backend? Then you have two SN profiles, one for ERP, one for EWM. If you have S/4HANA, you can have a harmonized SN profile, means one where both is maintained.

All the above is no official SAP statement.

And it is EWM. NOT eWM - Duh!

And if your question includes the word "transfer order" - do NOT tag the question with Extended Warehouse Management!

Thanks Jurgen for the quick comment.

Yes, you are right, these are two different materials however serial number requirements is same for all the materials in our warehouse i.e. in EWM (9.4) it is at warehouse level. We use ECC still no HANA.

I am just trying to understand what could be the reason due to which EWM is not sending SNs captured for external procurement having sales order stock.

Hi Ritesh,

well, what is your SN requirement on EWM side? B or C? And do both materials also have the same ERP serial number profile?
