Transfer Postings

SAP Recommended Process: Store to Store Transfer

The store-to-store transfer is used to remove materials from one storage location and place them in another storage location. A stock transfer from one storage location to another storage location takes place within a plant. It is posted without value, since the transferred material is managed in the same plant and therefore has the same valuation data as before. The processes outlined below cater to all store-to-store transfer scenarios. Store-to-store transfers can be carried out in as a one-step or two step transfer.

One Step Transfer

The issuing store enters the transfer posting, using movement type 311, for the receiving store.
The goods are issued to the receiving store as soon as the goods are posted. The inventory at the receiving store increases and at the issuing store reduces by the posted quantity.


Two Step Transfer

Firstly, the issuing store will enter a withdrawal transaction from the store. The issuing store will use movement type 313. A goods issue slip is printed out.

After posting the removal from storage, the quantity is deducted from the issuing storage location. The quantity is managed in the stock at the receiving storage location (not in unrestricted-use stock, but in stock in transfer).

The material is received physically at the receiving store accompanied by the GI slip. The receiving stores will place the material in storage, referencing the stock removal document on the GI slip (315). The goods quantity is taken over from stock in transfer into unrestricted-use stock.

Since the stock transfer occurs within the plant, no accounting document is created in addition to the material document.
