Intra and Cross Company-Codes Stock Transfer Posting

In term of organizational structure level, stock transfer posting between plants can occur in a same company code or cross-company codes.

Stock Transfer Posting between plants in a same company code

  • If the material transferred between plants is not-valuated material (“value update indicator” is not set in the material type configuration for the plants), the stock transfer posting does not affect accounting.
  • If the material is valuated for the plants where stock transfer posting occurs and the valuation level is company code, stock transfer posting also does not affect accounting. It’s because the value of a certain material in all plants in the company code is the same.
  • If the material is valuated for the plants where stock transfer posting occurs and the valuation level is plant, stock transfer posting will affect accounting.If the procedure used is one-step transfer posting, the transaction will create accounting journals when it’s posted. The inventory account in the issuing plant will be credited and the one in the receiving plant will be debited.If the procedure used is two-steps transfer posting, the “Remove from Storage” transaction will create accounting journal when it’s posted. The inventory account in the issuing plant will be credited, and the one in the receiving plant will be debited (although in term of quantity it’s still on “stock in transfer” in the receiving plant, not in “unrestricted-stock” yet).
    The “Place in Storage” transaction will not create accounting journal as it only transfers “stock in transfer” to “unrestricted-stock” in the receiving plant (in a same plant).

SAP One-step and two-steps stock transfer posting procedures

In the previous post about stock transfer between plants in general, I have explained that it can be done with Stock Transfer Posting (which solely in SAP MM Inventory Management component) or Stock Transport Order (which also involves SAP MM Purchasing and SAP SD components).

In this post, I will explain Stock Transfer Posting in more details.

Unlike stock transfer posting from one storage location to another storage location which can be carried out for all stock types, plant to plant stock transfer posting can only be carried out from unrestricted-stock to unrestricted-stock in both plants.

In term of how to do the transaction, stock transfer posting can be done in one-stop procedure or two-steps procedure.

Stock Transfer Posting in One-step Procedure

The advantage of one-step stock transfer posting is the simplicity that we only have to do a single transaction for it.

In that single transaction, the unrestricted-stock in issuing plant is reduced and the unrestricted-stock in receiving plant is increased. The unrestricted-stock quantity in one storage location of a plant can be seen in MARD table – LABST field.
