20. Material MovementsMaterial Movements
When a goods movement takes place it is
represented by a Movement Type
◦ Movement types are three-digit keys used to
represent a movement of goods
101 – goods receipt into warehouse
102 - reversal of goods receipt for purchase
order into warehouse/stores
103 – goods receipt into GR blocked stock
122 – return delivery to vendor
501 - receipt w/o purchase order into
unrestricted-use stock
21. Goods ReceiptGoods Receipt
Goods receipt is a goods movement
activity in which we accept goods into our
system.
If materials are delivered against a
purchase order we will reference that
order and SAP can
◦ retrieve data from the PO for us to verify:
material, quantity, and so on
◦ Update inventory G/L account automatically
◦ Update purchase order history with the receipt
◦ Update physical inventory
29. Invoice Processing - 3-Way MatchInvoice Processing - 3-Way Match
Incoming Invoices are reference against a Purchase Order to
verify their content, prices, and arithmetic.
If discrepancies arise between the purchase order or goods
receipt and the invoice the system with generate a warning
or an error
◦ Depending on system configuration the difference could cause the
system to Block the Invoice

31. Financial effects of Invoice PostingFinancial effects of Invoice Posting
When an invoice is posted, SAP shifts the
liability
◦ From the Goods Receipt/Invoice Receipt
account (for the purchase order)
◦ To the vendor account
Upon posting, SAP:
◦ Updates the Purchase Order
◦ Updates the Material Master
◦ Creates an Accounting Document
◦ Initiates the payment process within
Financial Accounting

Notes de l'éditeur
In the Business Process Integration class we use the stool as a metaphor for the SAP structure. There are four basic components needed to run execute SAP. Three of these are the legs of the stool: org data, master data, and rules. These ‘hold up’ the transactions. Transactions cannot be run unless these are setup.
The legs are typically configured during the implementation process.
During BPI 1 we will setup the stool for Finance, Materials management and Sales and Distribution.
We are now going to run some material management transactions - Purchasing
Master data does not change very often
Org data – should not change
Transaction data (application data) – changes every transaction
Rules are relatively fixed.
Master data does not change very often
Org data – should not change
Transaction data (application data) – changes every transaction
Transaction data uses/comprised of the master data, rules, and org data.
Every transaction has an audit trail.
The execution of purchase order is primarily done in Materials Management, but parts of the procurement process are cross-module. A/P resides in finance, and receipt quality check in Quality Management. Putaway’s from receipt can interface with the Warehouse Management module.
Org structure in MM and FI
Master Data in MM and FI
Rule and transaction Data interface with MM, FI, PP, WW, and QM
This is a standard view of the procure to pay process and the most common. It may vary significantly based upon the company procedures, the products/services purchases and other factors.
SAP allow businesses to tailor it to their needs.
Starts with a requisition or need that needs to be filled. This can come from Planning (MRP), manually or other
The purchase order is the document to fill the need: usually includes the vendor, cost/price, quantity, terms and other pertinent information. [ part one of the 3-way match]
Notifying the vendor
The goods are shipped and brought to the organization
The goods are received (typically at the dock) and then put away [ part two of the three way match]
An invoice is received from the vendor [third part of the 3-way match]
After the tolerances/verification of the 3-way match are met a payment is made according to the terms agreed to on the purchase order.
When you enter a goods movement, you start the following chain of events in the system:
A material document is generated, which is used as proof of the movement and as a source of information for any other applications involved.
If the movement is relevant for Financial Accounting, one or more accounting documents are generated.
The stock quantities of the material are updated.
The stock values in the material master record are updated, as are the stock and consumption accounts.
Depending on the movement type, additional updates are carried out in participating applications. All updates are based on the information contained in the material document and the financial accounting document. For example, in the case of a goods issue for a cost center, the consumption values of the items are also updated.
The header contains information relevant to the whole document . The items specify the materials or services to be procured. For example, information about the vendor and the document number is contained in the document header, and the material description and the order quantity are specified in each item.
Account assignment – What cost center assigned to.
Delivery Schedule – What, how much and when delivered
The items specify the materials or services to be procured. For example, information about the vendor and the document number is contained in the document header, and the material description and the order quantity are specified in each item.
Account assignment – What cost center assigned to.
Delivery Schedule – What, how much and when delivered
The items specify the materials or services to be procured. For example, information about the vendor and the document number is contained in the document header, and the material description and the order quantity are specified in each item.
Any number of ways to communicate the PO to the vendor.
If you have any information about the purchase order you look up or order for receipt.
Goods receipt A goods receipt (GR) is a goods movement with which the receipt of goods from a vendor or from production is posted. A goods receipt leads to an increase in warehouse stock.
Goods issue
A goods issue (GI) is a goods movement with which a material withdrawal or material issue, a material consumption, or a shipment of goods to a customer is posted. A goods issue leads to a reduction in warehouse stock.
Stock transfer
A stock transfer is the removal of material from one storage location and its transfer to another storage location. Stock transfers can occur either within the same plant or between two plants.
Transfer posting
A transfer posting is a general term for stock transfers and changes in stock type or stock category of a material. It is irrelevant whether the posting occurs in conjunction with a physical movement or not. Examples of transfer postings are:
Transfer postings from material to material
Release from quality inspection stock
Transfer of consignment material into company's own stock
When you enter a goods movement in the system, you must enter a movement type to differentiate between the various goods movements. A movement type is a three-digit identification key for a goods movement
For example, the movement type plays an important role in
updating of quantity fields
updating of stock and consumption accounts
determining which fields are displayed during entry of a document in the system

The movement type plays an important role in
updating of quantity fields
updating of stock and consumption accounts
determining which fields are displayed during entry of a document in the system
If a material is delivered for a purchase order, it is important for all of the departments involved that the goods receipt entry in the system references this purchase order, for the following reasons:
Goods receiving can check whether the delivery actually corresponds to the order.
The system can propose data from the purchase order during entry of the goods receipt (for example, the material ordered, its quantity, and so on). This simplifies both data entry and checking (overdeliveries and underdeliveries).
The delivery is marked in the purchase order history. This allows the Purchasing department to monitor the purchase order history and initiate reminder procedures in the event of a late delivery.
The vendor invoice is checked against the ordered quantity and the delivered quantity.
The goods receipt is valuated on the basis of the purchase order price or the invoice price.
Stock Update
Which stocks are updated in the material master record depends on the destination of the goods:
Goods receipt into the warehouse
If the goods are destined for the warehouse, the system increases total valuated stock and the stock type (for example, the unrestricted-use stock) by the delivered quantity. The stock value is updated at the same time.
Goods receipt into consumption
If the goods are destined for consumption, only the consumption statistics are updated in the material master record.
The system does not update the consumption statistics in the material master record, if you post goods movements using the special stock types Sales order stock and Project stock.
Goods receipt into goods receipt blocked stock
If the goods receipt is posted into goods receipt blocked stock (see also Goods Receipts Into Goods Receipt Blocked Stock), the stock level remains the same. The goods are recorded only in goods receipt blocked stock of the purchase order history.
Goods receipt into a new storage location
If you post goods into a storage location that does not yet exist for this material, the storage location data is automatically created in the material master record when the goods receipt is posted.
A goods receipt has the following results in the system:
Creation of a Material Document
When you post a goods receipt, the system automatically creates a material document which serves as proof of the goods movement.
Creation of an Accounting Document
Parallel to the material document, the system creates an accounting document. The accounting document contains the posting lines (for the corresponding accounts) that are necessary for the movement.
From the screen displaying the material document, you can display the accounting document.
Creation of a Goods Receipt/Issue Slip
When you enter the goods receipt, you can print the goods receipt/issue slip Sending a Mail Message to Purchasing
If the GR message indicator has been set in the purchase order, the buyer automatically receives a message informing him of the delivery.

If the goods are destined for consumption, only the consumption statistics are updated in the material master record.
The system does not update the consumption statistics in the material master record, if you post goods movements using the special stock types Sales order stock and Project stock.
Goods receipt into goods receipt blocked stock
If the goods receipt is posted into goods receipt blocked stock, the stock level remains the same. The goods are recorded only in goods receipt blocked stock of the purchase order history.
Goods receipt into a new storage location
If you post goods into a storage location that does not yet exist for this material, the storage location data is automatically created in the material master record when the goods receipt is posted.
Note, however, that this is only true if automatic creation of storage location data is allowed for both the plant and the movement type in question in the Customizing system. If automatic creation is not allowed, you must add the new storage location to the material master record before you post a goods receipt to it.
Update of G/L Accounts
When the goods receipt is posted, the system automatically updates the G/L accounts by the value of the goods receipt
Updates can also occur in other related applications. In the case of a goods receipt to consumption, for example, the account assignment object (such as a cost center, order, asset, etc.) is debited.
Updates in the Purchase Order
When a goods receipt is posted, the following purchasing data is updated:
Purchase order history
During goods receipt posting, a purchase order history record is automatically created. This record contains data essential for Purchasing, such as: the delivered quantity, the material document number and item, the movement type, and the posting date of the goods receipt.
Purchase order item
If the "delivery completed" indicator is set in the material document, the order item is considered closed, and the open purchase order quantity is set to zero.
Other Updates
Depending on the characteristics of the material, movement, and components used, additional updates are carried out in other components. For example, a goods receipt is relevant for:
Entries to be made in the planning file or independent requirements reduction in materials planning
Statistical data in Inventory Controlling
Vendor evaluation data in Purchasing
Transfer requirements and quantity in the Warehouse Management System
Inspection lots in Quality Management
A goods receipt has the following results in the system:

Requisition – Nothing really happens unless we get the goods or pay for them
The system does the transactions for you using the automatic account assignment
When we receive these, it can match the receipt against the PO
Debit Inventory (we now have additional inventory value)
Credit GR/IR (we are going to owe/pay for that additional inventory)
Rules for price differences and where are we going to post those.
Materials Management, Logistics Invoice Verification has the following features:
It completes the material procurement process, which started with the purchase requisition and resulted in a goods receipt.
It allows invoices that do not originate in materials procurement (such as services, expenses, course costs) to be processed.
It allows credit memos to be processed, either as invoice reversals or return deliveries.
Purchase order is matched against the invoice against the amount of the goods receipt. This may vary vendor to vendor according to the vendor info record. If the 3-way match is within tolerance, the payment is sent to the payment program for processing.
It is in Logistics Invoice Verification that incoming invoices are verified in terms of their content, prices and arithmetic. When the invoice is posted, the invoice data is saved in the system. The system updates the data saved in the invoice documents in Materials Management and Financial Accounting.
An invoice can be processed in Logistics Invoice Verification in various ways:
Invoice Verification Online
Invoice Verification Online
Invoice Verification in the Background
Automatic Settlements
Invoices Received via EDI
Activate display of the MM and FI document numbers using the user parameter IVFIDISPLAY, by entering the value X for the user. In the standard system, only the document number from Materials Management is displayed.
Logistics Invoice Verification is a part of Materials Management (MM). It is situated at the end of the logistics supply chain that includes Purchasing, Inventory Management, and Invoice Verification. It is in Logistics Invoice Verification that Incoming Invoices are verified in terms of their content, prices and arithmetic. When the invoice is posted, the invoice data is saved in the system. The system updates the data saved in the invoice documents in Materials Management and Financial Accounting.
Once we get the receipt –
Debit GR/IR – now a wash
Vendor AP Credit – we owe
Some companies book it as a liability right away (previous slides), but it really isn’t until you receive the goods
Unique to SAP
Rules according to which it can determine the open items to be paid and, if expedient, group them together for payment. For example, you can specify grace periods for incoming items, which are taken into consideration when calculating the due date.
Specifications for selecting the payee. You can enter an alternative payee in your customer/vendor's master record or in the document itself.
Rules used by the payment program to select the payment methods. You can specify payment methods via your customer or vendor's master record or via the open items, or you can have the payment program select them using specified rules.
Rules used by the payment program to select the house bank from which the payment is made. House banks are banks where your company (company code) maintains accounts. You can specify a house bank in your customer/vendor's master record or in the line item, or you can have the payment program select it using specified rules.
Specifications for automatic postings. The payment program requires information such as document types, posting keys and accounts, in order to carry out the automatic postings.
It determines the open items to be paid and creates a proposal list. You can process the proposal list on-line. Among other things, you can change payment methods or banks, block items, or cancel payment blocks.
The payment program carries out payment using the proposal list. The payment run includes only the open items contained in the proposal list. The payment program posts documents and provides the data for the form printout and for creating the data carriers, the payment advice notes and the payment summaries.
It uses the print program to print the forms and create the data carriers.
