The stock transfer process begins with a requirement to transfer material from one plant to another within the same company code. This request, in the form of a stock transfer requisition, may be created in the procuring plant automatically by MRP or manually by a buyer.
The material master must exist in both the procuring (receiving) plant and the providing (shipping) plant. Stock transfer purchase orders are not subject to approval like other purchase orders.
A buyer converts the stock transfer purchase requisition to a stock transfer purchase order. A warehouse clerk at the shipping plant monitors the materials due to be shipped and creates deliveries as required.
A warehouse clerk gathers the materials and confirms the picked quantities. Once the delivery is complete, the delivery quantities are issued, and the goods are shipped, ending the process for the shipping plant.
Goods are received at the receiving plant referencing to the stock transfer order.
