SAP Note 13006 - MMIM: Transfer consignm. stock from plant to plant

Symptom:

It is not possible to transfer vendor consignment stock from one plant to another plant (movement types 301 to 306 for special stock 'K').
A stock transfer by means of a delivery is also not supported (movement types 641, 643, 647).

Cause and prerequisites

This program function is not supported.
In order to implement this program function, it would be necessary to find a solution to the business-related aspect of the valuation problem:
Since the consignment price of a material from a vendor can be different in the two plants involved, it would be possible to manipulate the consignment liabilities towards the vendor prior to consignment withdrawals by performing a transfer posting and thus transfering the consignment stock to a suitable plant.

Solution

You can post the stock transfer in two steps:

1. Post the stock issue in the issuing plant using movement type 562 in combination with the special stock indicator 'K', for example.

2. Post the stock receipt in the receiving plant using movement type 561
in combination with the special stock indicator 'K', for example.
