GR for outbound delivery
A Purchase order(STO) was created for Stock transport between one Plant to another plant. .
Against the Purchase order, a delivery has been created with Quantity 5.00 Mt. Goods Receipt for qunatity 5.00Mt. was done using MIGO with " Reference to Outbound Delivery".
Though Goods receipt was already done for 5mt , system again allowed another Goods receipt for 5mt with reference to same Outbound delivery Thus adding 10mt to the stock of receiving plant.
Any suggestions will be appreciated. This happened in production server and we were in a fix.

This scenario is only possible when the two plants are assigned to different company codes.
In a normal UB order between plants of the same company code a GR can only be posted after the GI since the GI places the goods in transit.
In a transfer between plants of different companies no such goods in transit exist. MMBE gives you the difference between the GI and the GR quantities. This means that you can receive as many goods as the tolerance allows without them being issued.
You can prevent major discrepancies by using the overdelivery tolerance.
_________________
The stock transfer is between plants of same company code. The tolerance limits are 0% (Zero Percent).

If there was other stock in transit from another delivery,, this can also happen. Even in same company code.
When the total quantity in the delivery is goods receipted then the system will not allow to make another GR with reference to that delivery, although there is stock in transit . Check it.

Hi Manus and Bart,
I was facing a problem im relation to STO (Stock Transport Order) and GR against the OBD (Out bound delivery) created with reference to the STO and while searching the posting came across thi one
The system allows be to make GR with a posting date before the Actual PGI (Post Goods Issue) date in the OBD!
Is it supposed to be like this? If so why?
Can I choose to stop this? If so how?
Thanks in advance
Matt
