STO (Stock Transfer Order)

• Basic purpose of STO- transfer stock form one plant to another plant.

{Material: RAW1, Transfer from Plant 1000 to Plant 2000}

• Depending on business process, whether to purchase material from vendor or else transfer
stock from one plant to another plant.

By considering above stated purpose, we can conclude statement like: {Types of STO}

✓ Intra STO (from 1plant to another plant) (within same company code)
✓ Inter STO (from 1plant to another plant) (with different company code)

• Define Shipping Data for Plants:

Here you maintain the customer number of the receiving plant. This customer number is used in SD
shipping processing to identify the goods recipient (ship-to party). This is relevant if provision has
been made in Customizing for a stock transfer to be carried out with an SD delivery (see Assign
Delivery Type and Checking Rule).

You can also define the following for the supplying plant:

• Sales organization

• Distribution channel

• Division

With this data, the system determines the shipping data for the material to be transferred (e.g. the
shipping point).

You also define the language in which the PO texts are to be maintained for the supplying plant.

Here, Maintain Suppling Plant: SB13

Maintain Receiving Plant: 0001 (Customer)

By this, Receiving Plant act as a Customer

• Create Checking rule: 01 (Here, I used Standard: You can also Create New checking Rule)
In this step, you create rules for the availability check in the case of stock transport orders.

This check enables you to find out whether the quantity requested is available in the supplying plant,
for example, in the case of materials that are to be transferred over longer distances from one site
to another.

• Define Checking Rule

In this step, you specify which requirements and stocks are to be considered in calculating
availability before the stock transfer is affected.

In the case of materials that are to be transferred from one site to another, you can carry out an
availability check to find out whether the requested quantity is actually available in the supplying
plant.

• Configure Delivery Type & Availability Check Procedure by Plant

In this step, you specify whether an SD delivery is to be created in the case of a PO with a certain
combination of supplying plant and document type. You can also specify which delivery type is to be
used.
The delivery type in Sales and Distribution (SD) determines how a delivery is handled. In the
standard system, the delivery type 'NL' is used for stock transfers without a billing document. For
stock transfers with a billing document, the delivery type 'NLCC' is used.

• Assign Document Type, One-Step Procedure, Under delivery Tolerance

In this step, you define which document type is to be used for a certain combination of supplying
plant and receiving plant.

• If the supplying and receiving plants belong to the same company code, choose the
document type 'UB' or a comparable document type of your own. A physical stock transfer is
then carried out without a billing document.
