19.Third-Party Sales Order Scenario On plant P1 a sales order is created which is converted into PR and PO. A central purchasing plant P2 processes it and sends it to the vendor. The vendor supplies goods to plant P2. P2 then transfers the goods to P1. P1 then delivers it to the customer. We want an actual plant to do the receipt of the goods. Meaning P2 would receive the stock initially for sales order (TAB) and linked purchase order (having plant P1) if goods are coming to P2. Subsequently, when P2 plant delivers the sales order stock to P1 plant, P1 should create the receipt of the goods for stock transfer delivery. The reason we want to achieve this is so not to disturb the material costs, as once the goods are received it will be evaluated. How do we do this?
Answer: You could have the requirement placed on P1,
which then creates a dependent requirement on P2. When purchased, it is sent to P2. The dependent requirement causes an STO between P1 and P2, and the customer demand requires fulfillment out of P1.
