Problem : When doing delivery, some of our students faced issues with stock not being available. This is a very common problem faced by anybody who is currently training in SAP.
Solution : To resolve this, you would have to put dummy stock into the storage location ( As though real stock has come in ) . The easiest way to do this is via Transaction code [ MB1c ]. The menu path for the same is [ SAP Easy Access -> Logistics -> Logistics Execution -> Inbound Processes -> Goods Receipt for PO -> MB1c Goods Receipt for other activities ]
Step 1 : Use Transaction Code MB1c
Step 2 : Enter the Movement Type of 561, enter the plant and storage location where you want to input the stock
Step 3 : Enter the Materials and Quantities that you want to input. Save the Transaction. You can immediately go to MMBE ( Verify Stock in SAP ) and check the increase in quantity under the respective plant/storage location combination.
As usual, in order to practice these, please use the user id provided to you. If you are an ex-student and SAP Access has expired, you can extend it at a nominal price from Fuze Server.
This post is useful for both students doing SAP MM Training, SAP SD Training and SAP PP Training .
Toubleshooting :
1. Warning Message Saying “MRP Controller will be notified..” – Ignore it
2. Period xxx/2011 is not open for account type…”
–> There could be multiple reasons why this could be happening. One of the primary reasons why this happens is because of material accounts not being open. Use MMPV Transaction to do the same ( How to Open new Material Posting Periods in SAP )

Sir,
I am trying to input the stock, Material: M-01, to Plant 1200 and Storage location: 001, Quantity: 100 PC, the system is returning below error:
“Mat. is a miss. part. MRP controller INTERTHAL will be notified.
Message no. M7133″
Please help me with that..
Somebody would have modified the material master and more seriously with Material Account Determination.
The error “Mat. is ….” is just a warning. You can ignore it. After that you get another error with Material Account Determination. The transaction code to fix it is OBYC. But, don’t go there at this point. I will fix it for you.
Your MM Consultant would fix this kind of errors in real time.
Here is the solution to this problem.
