Introduction
Some time back we discussed about how we can setup stock transport orders in SAP. Click here to read
that document. Similarly, its very often requested by certain customers to setup stock transport orders
to move stock between storage locations within same plant.
For example, lets say you have two buildings in same physical location and those were configured as two
different storage locations under one plant (Site) in SAP. If you want to move goods between one building
to the other (mean in SAP it has to be one storage location to the other), you have 2 ways of handling it
in SAP.
1. You can do an inventory transport posting between storage location to storage location
2. You can use the stock transport order process between two storage locations
Today we will see how we can setup stock transport order process between two storage locations in SAP
FMS. Since I am using SAP FMS, some setting might be different from what you have seen in standard SAP
(R/3).
Configuration
Create a new Stock Transport Order type
This is an optional entry. If you dont want to create your own PO type to distinguish your STOs between
intra company plant to plant vs. Storage location to storage location, you can use the PO type UB for
this purpose. Since I want to make is cleaner, I will create a new STO type for this purpose.
IMG Path:
Copy PO type NB and create your own PO type for this purpose.
You should have item category U under allowed item categories for that PO type
Copy delivery type NL and create your own delivery type (Eg: ZASL)
Based on my business scenario, I need to specify my issuing site as AW02 and issuing storage locations
will be both AW01 and AW02 as I am planning to move stock between both sides. You also need to
specify your STO type and the delivery type associated with it.
Maintain below
Change your STO delivery type to have Storage location dependent shipping point
determination
IMG Path:
Above mentioned configuration is all what you need for STO between storage location.
However, if youre in IS-Retail environment or SAP FMS (Fashion Management Solution), there is one more
important setting that you need to check.

Test Scenario
From article AW11001; I do not have any stock available in storage location AW02 under DC AW02.
I only have Retail Inventory - 10 (Stock Segment - RTL) and wholesale inventory - 100 (Stock Segment WHS) in stock.
Im going to move quantity 3 from article AW11001 RTL stock segment from storage location
AW01 to storage location AW02

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Note to remember:
As I have shown below; in the standard system, the Issuing Storage Location field is not getting copied
to all sub items (variant line items) automatically. I have to manually enter it in each variant items.
However, based on the OSS note: 1000328 - Issuing storage location is not copied to the sub items;
below customizing setting will solve this issue.

Now if you create a new STO, you will notice that Issuing storage location is automatically copied to all
variant items without any issue.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------As I mentioned above, if your site is having a distribution profile assigned, you will not be able to select
the issuing storage location manually.
STO # - 4500000684
Since my DCs are allocation relevant (Please note that this is a FMS specific functionality, which
was inherited from IS AFS), I need to run allocation for this STO
