Documentation

Definition

Use this indicator to specify for materials requirements planning (MRP)/procurement whether the project has its own stock.

With project stock you can for instance:

• In multi-level production, keep track of the cost in a work breakdown structure in a detailed manner.
• Examine the material components required in a project with regard to inventory management or MRP planning seperately. This is particularly useful for components that have a long procurement lead time.

In valuated project stock the materials are managed on both a quantity basis and a value basis; all goods movements trigger corresponding postings in the stock accounts in Financial Accounting.

Notes

The indicator is copied as a default value from the project profile; it can be changed in the control data when you create a project. It is valid for all WBS elements.

The indicator cannot be changed after you have saved the project definition.
