Material Withdrawals for Production Orders


Inventory Management provides for the staging of
components for production. You enter withdrawals for
production as goods issues with reference to the
production orders for which the components are required.

Other Types of Internal Staging of Material


Materials can be withdrawn not only for production but also
for other purposes (for example, for cost centre, CO order,
maintenance order, or asset).
Return Deliveries to Vendors
Return deliveries to vendors are entered with the function
Material document ® Return delivery or with the function
Goods receipt ® For purchase order.
Scrapping/Sampling
If a material is no longer usable, it must be scrapped.
Scrapping of a material is entered in the R/3 System as a
goods issue. The withdrawal of samples must also be
entered as a goods issue.
This section explains the following goods issues:
● Material withdrawals for production orders
● Other types of internal staging of material
● Scrapping/sampling
Process Flow
Entering a Goods Issue with/Without Reference
Document
Before entering a goods issue, you have to find out
whether any reference document or data exists in the
system.
When you enter a goods receipt, you can reference:
● Reservations
● Production orders
● Bills of material

4.Materials As Is Business Process and Business Requirement from Walvoil To Be Business Process for Walvoil Fluid Power (India)
Management Fluid Power (India) Pvt. Ltd. Pvt. Ltd.

If a reference document (reservation/order) exists, it is


important to enter the goods issue with reference to this
document, for the following reasons:
● The goods issuing department can check whether
what was requested is actually issued.
● During entry of goods issue, the system can
suggest data from the reference document (for
example, account assignment, requested material,
quantity, etc.). This simplifies both data entry and
checking (over deliveries and under deliveries)
when entering a goods issue.
● After a withdrawal, the quantity withdrawn is
updated in the reference document and the
reserved quantity is reduced accordingly. Thus,
Inventory Management can monitor the withdrawal
process and Materials Planning can update the
stock/requirements list.

If you do not reference the corresponding reference


document during the goods issue, the reservation remains
open and the requested quantity remains reserved,
although the request no longer really exists. Consequently,
available stock in Materials Planning no longer corresponds
to the stock actually available!

How do you find the reference document?


If you do not know the number of the reference document,
you can find it in the system using the material number or
the account assignment.
