can we change batch number to any unrestricted stock

[Former Member]

Hi experts,

while confirming production order of Finished good, material batch number is mistyped by pp person. qm person also blindly passed the material in the system. stock was posted to sales location as unrestricted stock,which is ready for sale. Is there any way to assign the correct batch number to the unrestricted stock, or to correct the mistyped batch number? pls.revert.

One solution isin the system reproduce the stock (not physically) & modify the batch number.

Hi Krishna,

What you can do is cancel the process order...As a result post the stock back to process order...Then create New Process Order and assign the correct bacthy number to that...

Hope this helps...

Hi,

Another way (this is a quick fix way, and you will have to see that this does not break anything elsewhere in the system) for to do this is create the batch using MSC1N, and transfer the stock from the incorrect bacth to this new batch. You can use 311 (use the same source and receiving Sloc, just change the batches) or also 309 (again, use the same material number, different batches). The reference will be available in the MB51 list. Please check if there are any Z reports that pick the bacth number from the Order table, becuase this will refer to the incorrect batch only.

I would recommend that you refer this first to your FI and CO person to see that there are not detrimental effects. If the material is on Standard price this should not be a problem.

Hope this helps.

how to change material qty`s with the material movements (without consuming in orders or without issue unplanned) ? becoz we have generated some excess inventory while making different products over a period of time. if we consume excess qty`s in any orders it will reflect in reports.it is ok for us, if we do transfer these excess materials to another material with different qty. is it possible?
