SAP Note 383917 - ME21N: Filling of EKKO-LIFNR incomprehensibly

Component : Stock Transfer -

Solution : https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/383917 (SAP Service marketplace login required)

Summary :
This SAP Note addresses issues with EKKO-LIFNR field population in ME21N/ME22N and stock transport order generation in MD04. The EKKO-LIFNR discrepancies occur due to mismatches in T161-UMLIF settings when order types are changed without adjusting Customizing settings. Additionally, stock transport orders fail to generate from MD04, though they can be created in ME21N/ME22N. Users should implement the advised advance correction or import the upcoming Support Package. The solution is consistent across SAP releases 4.6B and 4.6C, with correction instructions pending due to technical constraints.

Key words :
