Documentation

Definition

Specifies that the stock query for materials is broken down according to the related batches.

Use

If you set this indicator, the system determines the batches for the materials in the stock query and determines the stocks separately for these batches. The breakdown applies to stocks at storage location level, stock commitments, and special stocks, unless you explicitly query specific special stock data.

Dependencies

If you set this indicator, the system ignores the combinations of material and batch that are explicitly specified.

For information about how the queried stock data (broken down or aggregated, if applicable) is made available, see the documentation for method GET of class CL_INVENTORY_LOOKUP.

Example

You run a stock query for stock data at storage location level for materials M001 and M002 in plant P001. Material M001 has batches B001 and B002. Material M002 has batches B003 and B004. If you set this indicator, the system determines the stock data for the following key combinations:

Material    Plant    Batch

M001    P001    B001

M001    P001    B002 M002    P001    B003 M002    P001    B004
