Plant de-activation

[Former Member]

Hi All

I am in the process of de-activating old plants which are no more used. I plan to do the following

1. Delink plant from company code.

2. Delink plant from Purchase org.

3. Delink plant from sales area

I have tested it in sandbox and even after the above process, I am able to view the old documsnts, which is exactly I want & also the system will not allow me to created new Pur. ord, SO & Pdn Order for the plant. That is perfectly fine for me.

Just want to understand if there are any other impacths this might cause..

Regards

Tom

Hi Jack,

You are almost done and now your plant is a hanging entity in your system where you can not do any transaction but can see old documents . But there can be some problem in reporting for the current period as If you want a report at Higer level at company code level you will not account this plant. Else everything is fine.

Just ensure that there should be no stock or Inventory of any kind in this plant.No Open PO, No Open SO just close them properly becuase deactivating plant is to close all the open documents and inventory also.

Best Of luck!!
