Transfer Stock - Cross-Plant
Application component: Fiori UI for Stock and Goods Movements
App type: Transactional
Description:  With this app, you can make transfer postings from one plant (issuing plant) to another plant (receiving plant). The app supports you in finding the allowed transfer postings and in personalizing the control settings of storage locations and visible columns. This app supports you, for example, as a warehouse clerk in your daily work. 
You can use this app to make the transfer postings from one plant (issuing plant) to another plant (receiving plant).

For example as a warehouse clerk, you can perform the following tasks:
•Transfer stock within a plant or across plants.
•Transfer stock from one stock type to another stock type.
•Check the range of coverage based on the consumption of unrestricted-use stock materials in the last 30 days.

The app supports you to find the allowed transfer postings.
Key features:  Transfer Stock   Transfer stock within a plant or across plants.   Transfer stock from one stock type to another stock type. Note The app supports several movement types for different business processes. The app offers you authorization-dependent movement types. You have different authorizations depending on your business role.If movement types are missing for your task or you have restricted authorizations for a movement type, contact your administrator.   Transfer serialized stock across plants. Note The serial number profile configuration must be the same at both the shipping plant and receiving plant in order to transfer serialized stock.Serial number attributes for individual movement types are not considered in this app.   Transfer project stock across plants or to another stock type.   Create a stock transport order with one click using the Create Stock Transport Order button. Note that the button is only visible if the necessary configuration for stock transport orders is maintained and if the selected stock is not serialized or special stock.  Note The app only handles batches if these batches are assigned to a plant (plant reference). Therefore, you must first create this plant reference with the Manage Batches app, or with the first batch posting.   Across plants, you can post a stock transfer that contains items (batches) with a shelf life expiration date or production date. You have to enter the shelf life expiration date before you post the stock transfer. Depending on the settings, an entry in these fields might be mandatory in the transfer stock process. Note If the production date or shelf life expiration date differ from the batches in the issuing plant and receiving plant, a warning message appears before posting. You can only change the date specifications of the batches (receiving batch) when the fields are initial.    Predict Delivery Date   Use a predictive analytics model to predict the delivery date for a stock transport order.   The app determines a proposal for the delivery date of the stock transport order. This proposal is based on predictive analytical data and further current available data, such as storage location and quantity. If you change the initial data for creating the stock transport order, the app does not recalculate the Forecast Delivery Date automatically. If desired, you can trigger a new calculation for a new prediction.   If the predictive analytics model is active, the system uses the predicted delivery date as forecast delivery date. If the predictive model is not active, the system uses the planned delivery date from the purchase order (PO) instead.    Note If the predictive model is active, you can see and select the entry Use predictive model for forecast delivery date in the application settings. Recommendation The calculation of the predictive model is based on historical data. To ensure the quality of your model version, we recommend that you train the model with data that corresponds to your business case. To do so, you can add filters to your training dataset to refine the predictions. Note You enable this predictive functionality by using an active version of the current default model DEFAULT1 in the predefined predictive scenario MATERIAL_OVERDUE_SIT (Stock in Transit Material Overdue). To do so, create a version by training the model with different sets of data using the Predictive Models app. Activate the newly created version.If this predictive functionality has not been enabled, the app displays the predicted results as 0%. For more information about how to use the Predictive Models app, see Predictive Models App. In addition, the app supports the following technical features and options:  This app includes SAP CoPilot. This digital assistant in the SAP S/4HANA system supports you with features like business context awareness or quick actions to manage follow-on activities directly from the app.   This app supports specific authorization checks for transfer postings at the goods receipt. The app forbids unsupported transfer postings for materials that are part of quality management (QM) processes: material that is assigned to an inspection lot. For further goods movement (activities) with such materials you need the relevant authorization for the QM role Quality Technician. With this QM role, you can carry out further transfer postings for the materials in the stock in quality inspection. Therefore you can navigate directly to the app Manage Inspection Lots.
