Documentation

Definition

Specifies that negative stock balances are allowed in the valuation area.

Dependencies

Negative stock balances can only result if they are allowed at the following levels:

  • Valuation area level
  • Storage location level
  • Material level (plant data in the material master record)

Negative stock levels are already allowed for special stocks if negative stocks have been activated in the valuation area and for the special stock in question in the plant. You do not have to activate them in each material master record.

You can have negative balances in stocks of the types "unrestricted-use" and "blocked".

Negative balances are possible in the following special stocks:

  • Vendor consignment (K)
  • Stock of material provided to vendor (O)
  • Consignment stock at customer (W)
  • Sales order stock (E)
  • Project stock (Q)
  • Returnable packaging stock at customer (V)
  • Returnable transport packaging (M)
