Replenishment Using Stock

Transfer Orders (Plant to Plant)UseYou use the stock transfer order as a replenishment strategy if the material required in a

plant is stored in another plant of the same company. Here, when a kanban is set to

EMPTY, a purchase order is generated, which requests the other plant to deliver the

material required.

FeaturesWhen the kanban is set to EMPTY, a purchase order is created in the receiving location

and a release order in the delivering plant. The release order is procured and then posted

using the goods movement type 351. In the receiving location posting takes place with

movement type 101. However, instead of posting the goods receipt, the status can also

be set to FULL (then goods receipt takes place in the background).
