Hi experts,
I am working on a return process (Enter inspection result from warehouse) with followed-up transfer to unrestricted use.
I found that there are two post changes in the process, one is GM valuation, and the other one is transfer to free available stock.
Can anyone help me to understand GM valuation? After checking the GM WTs, I found this post change is to remove the return order (SOS) . Maybe someone could help to explain more. Thanks for that.
Regards,
Ming
Hi Ming,
you are on the right path, I think.
When you create the returns order and the subsequent delivery for the GR posting returns stock sits in stock category E (Sales order stock) until a decision is made what to do with that return. SOS stock is non-valuated in a sense that its value does not show up in your company's balance sheet (I hope real FI experts will not hang me if that's not 100% correct).
From a business point of view that makes sense because when you GR the returns stock you usually do not know whether you will accept the returns order and move it into your own stock.
As soon as you decide what to do with that order the stock is posted from E stock to "own" stock (movement type 419). If I remember correctly that automated posting has only been introduced in a recent release. Even issuing a credit note to the customer can trigger that (again, I would have to search for the release note to be a 100% sure).
Regards
Andreas
