BUSINESS PROCESS PROCEDURE OVERVIEW

Goods Issue to Cost Center (Movement 201) Goods issue to scrapping (Movement 551) Goods Issue or Goods Withdrawal can be required for a variety of reasons including moving stock between storage types (i.e. Unrestricted to Blocked stock), for production or process purposes, or for sales orders. Some examples of goods issue requirements are as follows: Inventory Management. Inventory must be delivered to the production line. The process of consuming the inventory from the warehouse to production involves doing a goods issue to a production order. There might be times when stock becomes outdated, damaged or no longer viable. It is at these times that stock needs to be issued to scrap. The user can issue stock to scrap from various stock locations, the most common being Unrestricted. The movement type is 551 Consignment material can also be scrapped. The consignment material already resides in Blocked stock, Unrestricted Use, or Quality Inspection. The user can use a Goods Issue transaction to move the desired quantity of material to scrap.

Tips and Tricks

It is sometimes necessary to reverse a goods issue due to user error. For example, an incorrect quantity is entered or the wrong manufacturing order was chosen. Within SAP, there are two different ways to reverse a goods movement. One is done via a material document. Another is done through a movement type. Reversing goods movements using movement types are the same as the initial movement types +1. For example, a reversal of a goods issue for a manufacturing order, movement type 261, would be a 262 movement type. If a goods movement has been entered via a PO, sales order, production order etc., it is necessary to enter the document for the reversal as well. Movement type is 201 for goods issue to production order (from consignment unrestricted). Special Stock indicator must be specified as K. Movement type is 551 for goods issue to scrap (from unrestricted). Movement type is 551 for goods issue to scrap (from consignment blocked). Special Stock indicator must be specified as K. Goods Issue and good receipt functions can be combined in a Confirmation: A Control Key in the Operation of a Task List (Routing) can be chosen which allows automatic goods receipt of the Header Material. Materials can be allocated to (an) Operation(s) in a Task List and set for back flushing. Activities are posted.
