SAP Note 38108 - Automatic goods receipt for manufacture of co-products

Component : Goods Movements -

Solution : https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/38108 (SAP Service marketplace login required)

Summary :
This SAP Note addresses issues with automatic goods receipt in production and process orders involving co-products. When confirming such orders, the system fails to trigger automatic goods receipt despite appropriate settings in the control key. Additionally, if the confirmation quantity differs from the planned for an operation, the system calculates short/excess receipt only for the main product, neglecting co-products. Due to the technical design, partial quantities for co-products are not auto-derived, and no direct proportional relationship exists between the leading product's quantity and that of co-products. The note advises manual processing of goods receipt until Release 6.06, after which limited automatic handling will be supported.

Key words :
automatic goods receipt, short/excess receipt, direct proportional link, goods receipt manually, leading product und, terms production order, planned order quantity, leading product, production order, planned quantity
