We are running a subcontracting scenario where one of the raw materials is provided by an external supplier instead of shipping from own warehouse.
So PO for subcontractor
Material FG : 10 EA
RM A : 5 EA
RM B : 5 EA
PO for external supplier to be shipped to subcontractor directly.
RM A : 5 EA
If we look at ME2ON for assembly 10 it shows correctly as
Raw Material A
Total SC stock : 0 EA
Req via SC order : 5 EA -
External deliveries : 5 EA +
Raw Material B
Total SC stock : 0 EA
Req via SC order : 5 EA -
The problem lies in the fact that for ME2ON for raw material A there is nothing to indicate to a user that they SHOULD NOT ship out the material from warehouse inventory.
Does SAP offer a way to block these deliveries or run an availability check to create deliveries with 0 stock?
Without it there is no system control to create additional deliveries for Raw Materials resulting in over shipment to subcontractor.
