6 1 Overview Article stocks are frequently transferred between an enterprise's stores in order to optimize sales. This process is common in the fashion sector, above all. The execution of operational stock transfers is supported by Stock Balancing Management, so that efficient and rapid processing is possible on the basis of all the necessary information within just one transaction. is an add-on to the existing SAP ERP portfolio, so full integration in the standard Purchasing processes is ensured. supports the creation of stock transport orders for articles that are to be transferred between the stores of an enterprise. The overall stock transfer process is split into the main three sub steps: Reporting to determine possible articles for stock transfer as part of a bestseller/slow seller analysis in the SAP BW system (optional); Operational distribution of stocks between the stores of an enterprise; Follow-on processing of the operational stock transfers in the form of SAP ERP stock transport orders and their purchase order history. The functional scope of is concentrated on the operational distribution of stocks through the creation of stock transport orders. Integration in the existing SAP ERP portfolio ensures that followon processing for the stock transport orders (for example, goods issues and receipts in the stores concerned) can be carried out with the standard functionality for the SAP ERP purchase order and its history (Purchasing). The identification of possible articles for operational stock transfer, which is controlled by reporting, should take place in the SAP BW system through bestseller or slow seller analyzes. These analyses make it possible to identify for example, which articles sell particularly well in which stores, and in which stores they have the worst sales figures. In the example described above, it would make sense to transfer the articles from the stores in which they do not sell well (slow seller stores) to stores in which they sell better (bestseller stores), in order to optimize sales. The identification of bestsellers and slow sellers using SAP BW is extremely important for the broadest possible system-supported automation of the stock transfer process. These analyses take place in SAP BW, and the analysis results are transferred to. As a result, stock transfers can be created that are based on this transferred BW analysis data. You also have the option of not using BW data. In this case, you manually select possible stock transfer candidates. Information such as store-specific stock information helps well-founded decisions to be made on the transfer of articles and support the execution of this using stock transport orders. is primarily a tool for professional users in the company or group head office for efficiently making and implementing decisions on stock transfers SAP AG or an SAP affiliate company.

You use this pushbutton functionality to have the system read the current stock information for the article and store data displayed and compare this with the currently displayed information. This comparison takes place at article and store level and includes the current stock values. As a result of this comparison, the new stocks are calculated on the basis of the existing stock transfer stocks. 4 Check consistency: This executes consistency checks for the current stock transfer document. All errors are displayed in the notification log area (under the item area). If there are no error messages, a success message is displayed. 5 Release stock transfer document: The following steps are carried out by the system if you choose Release Stock Transfer Document: Update check and consistency check; Switch of status to "Released"; Creation of an SAP ERP purchase order with order type SAP AG or an SAP affiliate company.

16 Figure 7: Example of selection result for Stock Transfer Documents Selection for Worklist Scenario Figure 8: Selection screen - Worklist Scenario You can select the following existing BW worklists using various selection criteria: Article Worklist status: o 01 (enriched, no transfer yet to ACS ) o 02 (enriched, transferred to stock transfer document) o 03 (flagged for deleted) o 04 (not relevant) o 99 (error) SAP AG or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved. Screen Layout for Introduction

17 Note You can select status 04 and 99 only for deletion in the reorganization report Priority: You can use a BAdI to define customer-specific priorities for articles and stores (in the standard system, no priority is specified); Enrichment date Figure 9: Example of selection result for Worklist Scenario Groupings for the Worklist During processing of the transferred SAP BW analysis data by the enrichment report (see section 0), an implementation of a BAdI can be used to group the data. For example, you can subdivide the analysis data by sales territories, so that you get one group with sender and recipient stores in the north and one group with Screen Layout for Introduction 2013 SAP AG or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved. 17

18 sender and recipient stores in the south of a sales territory. If the BAdI is not implemented, no specific grouping takes place. Instead, in the standard system, grouping takes place at generic article level, with all related variants being shown below generic article level Priorities for the Worklist During processing of the transferred SAP BW analysis data by the enrichment report, an implementation of a BAdI can be used to assign a priority based on defined criteria for each article or variant. During selection of the worklist, this priority can be used to restrict the worklist in order to only display the stock transfer candidates with the highest priority, for example, if the BAdI is not implemented, no priorities are assigned Data Retention Levels for the Worklist The worklist can have different data retention levels. The data retention level that is displayed depends on the analysis performed in the SAP BW system or the transferred analysis results. Only one article is displayed, which was identified as a stock transfer candidate on the basis of the BW analysis. In subsequent processing you define the sender and recipient stores (apart from selection of the article, the procedure here is the same as that for the manual scenario, see section 2.5). Figure 10: Article One article and one store are displayed; the store was classified by the SAP BW system as a bestseller store. In this case, the BW analysis returns the store, but you must decide whether the store is the sender or recipient. You define this and choose at least one other store in the store assignment dialog box. Figure 11: Article and bestseller store One article and one store are displayed; the store was classified by the SAP BW system as a slow seller store. In this case, the BW analysis returns the store, but you must decide whether the store is the sender or recipient.

19 Figure 12: Article and slow seller store One article and one store are displayed; the store was classified by the SAP BW system as a neutral store. In this case, the BW analysis returns the store, but you must decide whether the store is the sender or recipient. You define this and choose at least one other store in the store assignment dialog box. Figure 13: Article and neutral store Article and assignment to sender and recipient store In the following example, store P120 is proposed as the recipient and store P121 as the sender. This can be seen through the hierarchical arrangement of the tree, which always shows the recipient at the highest level and with the sender below this, if Best-Slow display is activated. Figure 14: Indicates if Best-Slow display is active If Slow-Best display is activated, the data is displayed in reverse. Figure 15: Indicates if Slow-Best display is active One article and at least one sender and one recipient store are displayed. In this case, the BW analysis provides all the relevant information, and when the data is moved, the sender and recipient stores are proposed in the store assignment dialog box. However, you can select different stores or change the assignment of sender and recipient stores. After the data has been moved to the processing area, you simply need to define the stock transfer quantities. In addition to the article and sender and recipient stores, other information can be provided from the BW analysis. This data is displayed if you choose the Display Worklist Information pushbutton in the Store Assignment group box. Screen Layout for Introduction 2013 SAP AG or an SAP affiliate company.

All rights reserved. Screen Layout for Introduction

21 No. Functionality Description 2 Switch between display options Switch between Best-Slow and Slow-Best display (only for worklist scenario) 3 Scenario-dependent selection options Depending on the scenario you selected, a selection screen is displayed containing the selection options for user input. On the selection screen, you can use an indicator to control whether the results of the new selection overwrite an existing selection in the selection area or whether the old data is to be compared to or enriched with the new data. (A comparison only takes place within the same stock transfer scenario). The selection result is displayed as a hierarchy in the Tree Control area 4 Selection option of current worklist without specification of other selection options (automated selection, worklist stock transfer candidates as per SAP BW analysis) No selection options are displayed. Instead, the current worklist of stock transfer candidates is selected by the system on the basis of the SAP BW analysis (corresponds to selection of data with "01" enriched). This button is only activated for the "Worklist" scenario. 5 Delete entries in worklist, cancel deletion Dropdown list for deleting entries from the worklist or cancelling deletion (button only active for "Worklist" scenario). Deletion always relates to the selected node and all levels below this. If an article or variant is deleted, it is assigned a deletion flag and in the standard system is no longer displayed in the worklist. However, if you set certain selection options, you can also select articles with a deletion flag (selection with status "03 ). For articles selected in this way, you can cancel deletion both on a selection-specific basis (individual/multiple selection) and completely (for all the articles currently displayed with a deletion flag). 6 Move to item area The data is moved on a generic article-specific basis, which means that a maximum of one generic article can be moved to the processing area of Stock Balancing Screen Layout for Introduction 2013 SAP AG or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved. 21

22 No. Functionality Description Management. Move includes: The displayed variants of the generic article, in the case of a manual stock transfer scenario; The generic article including all variants according to the specified stock transfer document, in the case of stock transfer document selection; The generic article including all variants identified by SAP BW as stock transfer candidates, in the case of a stock transfer scenario triggered by the SAP BW worklist. When the data is moved, generic article-related data is moved to the header area and the variant data is moved to the item area of. Data successfully moved from the selection area to the processing area is hidden in the selection area. In the selection area, you can select the generic article, including variants that you want to transfer at both generic article level and variant level. If the processing area of is not initial, that is, an article has already been moved to the processing area, a dialog box containing the following options is displayed: Create and save current data in the processing area; Create without saving current data. 7 Compress/Expand Button for compression/expansion if a hierarchy level selection is displayed. Compression/expansion takes place step by step from hierarchy level to hierarchy level. Button for compressing/expanding the complete hierarchy level to the highest or lowest hierarchy level 8 Search function If you choose the Binoculars button, a dialog box is displayed in which you can enter a user-defined search term.

If there are several recipients with Screen Layout for Introduction 2013 SAP AG or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved. 23

24 different purchasing organizations, the correct purchasing organization is determined automatically when the stock transfer document is released (field EKORG in table T001W) o Purch. group: (input field); o Follow-on Document: This contains the number of the number of the collective document ("Submission Number") for the stock transport order or standard purchase order following release of the processed document. (All the purchase orders that belong to a transaction can be selected using selection with the collective number field in table EKKO.) Article Data: o Article o Category: 01 Generic article History: o Created by: Name of the user who created the document o Created on: Creation date All fields apart from Description, Purchasing Org. and Purch. group are filled automatically.

25 2.4 Screen Area Item Data The item data area is used to display the following information: Recipient stores (bestseller stores) to which the articles are to be transferred Sender stores (slow seller stores) from which the articles are to be removed in order to be transferred to the recipient stores A distribution center, if the stock transfer from the sender store to recipient store is to be carried out through a distribution center Information about the article itself, that is, information on article variants, and in particular their store stocks The sender and recipient stores are defined in the store assignment dialog box. There are two display alternatives for determining possible stock transfer candidates: From bestseller to slow seller From slow seller to bestseller Figure 20: Screenshot of transaction/stwacs/start_main Screen Layout for Introduction 2013 SAP AG or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved. 25

26 2.4.1 Store-to-Store Stock Transfer The stock transfer data is calculated and displayed in a similar way for the two display options "from bestseller to slow seller" and "from slow seller to bestseller". Processing of the item data is explained using the example of "from bestseller to slow seller": In the store assignment dialog box, store P120 was defined as the sender store and store P122 as the recipient store. Two new lines are displayed in the item overview for each sender/recipient store assignment pair. For each generic article variant, the currently available stock is displayed at both recipient store level and sender store level. In addition, you can enter the stock to be transferred in an input field at sender store level. It is also possible to leave a minimum stock in the sender store (this option is only possible if the BAdI is fully programmed). The new stock in the sender store is calculated as the currently available stock minus the stock transfer amount. The new stock of a generic article variant in the recipient store is calculated as the current stock plus the stock transfer amount from all sender stores. For each sender store, the total stock to be transferred aggregated across all generic article variants and the resulting new stock (difference: current stock stock transfer amount) are displayed in addition to the current stock. For each recipient store, the total stock to be transferred, that is, the transferred stock and the resulting new stock (sum of current stock + stock transfer amount from sender store) are displayed in addition to the current stock. You can also enter the delivery date for the purchase order to be generated for each sender store. A special case is when one sender store supplies two recipient stores. In this case, the direct display of the current stock minus stock transfer stock = new stock is somewhat more complicated, because the new stock results from the stock transfer amounts from two recipient stores. Figure 21: Example of detailed view of store-to-store stock transfer Stock Transfer Store Distribution Center - Store The stock transfer data is calculated and displayed in a similar way for the two display options "from bestseller to slow seller" and "from slow seller to bestseller". Processing of the item data is explained using the example of "from bestseller to slow seller": SAP AG or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved. Screen Layout for Introduction

27 In the store assignment dialog box, store P120 was defined as the sender store for recipient store P121, with distribution center P100 first receiving the articles to be transferred and then forwarding them (possible in a different quantity) to the recipient store. For each generic article variant, the currently available stock is displayed at both sender/recipient store level and distribution center level. In addition, you can enter the stock to be transferred in an input field at sender store level. It is also possible to leave a minimum stock in the sender store (this option is only possible if the BAdI is fully programmed). The new stock in the sender store is calculated based on the currently available stock minus the stock transfer amount. The new stock of a generic article variant in the DC is calculated as the current stock plus the stock transfer amount from all sender stores. The new stock of a generic article variant in the recipient store is calculated as the current stock plus the stock transfer amount from the DC. For each sender store, the total stock to be transferred aggregated across all generic article variants and the resulting new stock (difference: current stock stock transfer amount) are displayed in addition to the current stock. For each DC, the total stock to be transferred aggregated across all generic article variants and the resulting new stock (difference: current stock stock transfer amount) are displayed in addition to the current stock. For each recipient store, the total stock to be transferred, that is, the transferred stock and the resulting new stock (sum of current stock + stock transfer amount from sender store) are displayed in addition to the current stock. You can also enter the delivery date for the purchase order to be generated. In the scenario described here, processing takes place in two steps. First, only the quantities to be transferred from the stores to the DC can be determined. The stock is then distributed from the DC to the recipient stores. Simultaneous processing of the two steps is not possible.

In the Sum Edit view, the stock to be transferred is defined at generic article level, with the number of variants to be transferred being automatically determined through the equal distribution of the total number among the variants. 4 Compress/expand item lines Compress/expand higher-level item lines Single selection and multiple selection Compress/expand complete item area (compression at highest display level) 5 Scroll This functionality allows you to scroll within the item area, as if numerous variants are used, not all can be displayed simultaneously. 6 Complete stock transfer A complete stock transfer of the selected sender item lines (multiple selection possible) to the assigned recipient item line is carried out SAP AG or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved. Screen Layout for Introduction

29 No. Functionality Description The sender stores selected for complete stock transfer must not be assigned to several recipient stores. 7 Generation of distribution proposals This button allows you to generate distribution proposals, but only with customer implementation of the related BAdIs. 8 Complete variants, remove variants (only SAP BW-controlled stock transfer scenario) If you use the SAP BW-controlled stock transfer scenario, the displayed variants exactly match the variants from the result of the SAP BW analysis and executed enrichment report (see also section 2.2.4). As this does not necessarily contain all the variants of the generic article, you can subsequently add the other variants of the generic article to stock transfer processing. You can also remove these variants again. 9 Insert line Insertion of new sender item lines following selection of the higher-level recipient item line. 10 Delete line Deletion of recipient or sender item lines after you have selected these lines. If a higher-level item line was selected, all dependent, lowerlevel item lines are also deleted. If a single item line (with no lower-level items) is selected, only this one line is deleted. 11 Display store assignment dialog box In the manual stock transfer scenario and in the case of resulting stock transfer documents, the store assignment dialog box is used to determine/display the recipient and sender stores (see section 2.5). 12 Refresh The displayed stocks and other data at both recipient and sender store level are refreshed. 13 Delivery date/mass maintenance The delivery date to be used in the purchase order is maintained for all the selected lines at sender store level.

30 No. Functionality Description 14 Search for specific entries with user-defined input If you choose the Find pushbutton, a dialog box is displayed in which you can enter a user-defined search term. The search that is then carried out relates to the data currently displayed in the item processing area. If you choose Find Next pushbutton the system continues to search for the same search term from an identified search result or carries out a new search to the next search result. 15 ALV layout settings Option of user-specific modification of the displayed ALV grid. 2.5 Stock Transfer Process Manually Controlled Stock Transfer In manually controlled stock transfer, you must select both the articles to be transferred and the sender and recipients stores. You select the articles in the selection area. When the articles are moved to the item area, the header data is filled automatically. In addition to the articles, the sender and recipient stores are also needed for display in the item area. These are defined in the store assignment dialog box. If the stock transfer from the sender store to the recipient store is to go through a DC, this must also be entered in the store assignment dialog box. The data is moved from the selection area to the processing area in two steps: You first select the stores, and then select the sender stores, recipient stores, and distribution center Store Selection By setting the indicator you can overwrite a previous selection SAP AG or an SAP affiliate company.

31 Figure 23: Example of store selection Store Assignment Dialog Box: Selecting Sender Stores, Recipient Stores, and Distribution Center Selection of sender stores, recipient stores, and distribution center In this dialog box, all stock information (aggregated stock across all storage locations of a site from table MARD "Storage location data for article") for the variants across all stores, based on the listing, is displayed in addition to the selected stores. Within the dialog box, you can now use the indicator to determine which stores are recipients and which are senders. Various plausibility checks are implemented here that ensure that at least one store is selected as a sender and another is selected as a recipient. A store can only be selected as either a sender or a recipient store. By selecting a distribution center (optional), you can also define that the stock transfer from the sender to recipient store takes place through a distribution center. When you choose Overtake (apply), you move the selection of the DC and/or sender and recipient stores to the item area of. Entries that are not selected are not moved. In addition to the automatic display of the dialog box when you move data to the item area, you can also explicitly display the dialog box within the item area. You can then cancel assignments that have been made or create new ones. Screen Layout for Introduction 2013 SAP AG or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved. 31

32 Figure 24: Example of the store assignment dialog box in manually controlled stock transfer Stock Transfer from Worklist If you carry out stock transfer using the worklist, you must select the required articles from the data transferred from the BW system and displayed in the selection area. The data is always moved from the selection area to the processing area for the articles of a group within the worklist. In the standard system, without customer implementation of the BAdI, the generic article and all its variants identified during the BW analysis forms this group. Several data retention levels are possible in the worklist. If sender and recipient stores have already been specified for the articles, this information is copied to the store assignment dialog box. If only the articles or articles and assigned neutral stores were included in the worklist, you must define in the store assignment dialog box whether the neutral store is a sender or recipient store, as in manual stock transfer.

35 2.6 Stock Transfer Document (Stock Transport Order) General All the stock transfers processed in are grouped into stock transfer documents. Each stock transfer document relates to exactly one generic article and its variants. After a stock transfer document is released, an actual stock transfer is generated in the form of a stock transport order (or, in the case of different company codes, a standard purchase order). The stock transfer document has a history that provides information on when a document was created, changed, or released, and by whom. The document also contains stock transfer-specific information such as the purchasing organization or purchasing group. Permitted statuses in a stock transfer document are: New: Set by the system the first time a stock transfer document is processed; In process: Set by the system the first time a stock transfer document is saved; Released: If a stock transfer document has been released, it can no longer be put back to status "In process" and changed. Deleted: As long as the stock transfer document has not been released and consequently no follow-on document exists you can delete the stock transfer document. Stock transfer documents with the status "Deleted" can be displayed but no longer processed. Physical deletion of the stock transfer document does not take place until the reorganization report has been run. The collective number forms the link between a stock transfer document and the resulting purchase order documents. You can display all related purchase order documents by selecting the collective number (field SUBMI) in the purchasing document header table (EKKO). Note Changes made in the follow-on document (purchase order) are not updated in the preceding stock transfer document Purchase Order Creation Purchase Order Document When a stock transfer document is released, the resulting purchase orders are created automatically based on the information in the item area.

36 The collective number forms the link between a stock transfer document and the resulting purchase order documents. You can display all related purchase order documents by selecting the collective number (field SUBMI) in table EKKO (purchasing document header). Note Changes made in the follow-on document (purchase order) are not updated in the preceding stock transfer document Document Type The document type for purchase order document creation is stored in Customizing under SAP Reference IMG -> Materials Management -> Purchasing -> Purchase Order -> Set Up Stock Transport Order -> Assign Document Type, One-Step Procedure, Underdelivery Tolerance. This is part of standard Customizing, and a document type can be stored for each sender and recipient store (table T161W) Cross-Company Code Purchase Order If the sender store and recipient store have different company codes, the standard system requires more extensive data to create the purchase order than is required for purchase orders within one company code. Valid vendor data for the sender store (table T001W, field LIFNR) is a prerequisite for the creation of a purchase order for stores with different company codes SAP AG or an SAP affiliate company.

37 3 Overarching Functionalities 3.1 BW Data Transfer The identification of possible articles for operational stock transfer, which is controlled by reporting, should take place in the SAP BW system through bestseller/slowseller analyses. These analyses make it possible to identify for example, which articles sell particularly well in which stores, and in which stores they have the worst sales figures. In the example described above, it would make sense to transfer the articles from the stores in which they do not sell well (slowseller stores) to stores in which they sell better (bestseller stores), in order to optimize sales. The identification of bestsellers and slowsellers using SAP BW is extremely important for the broadest-possible system-supported automation of the stock transfer process. obtains these analysis results through the call of an RFC function module /STWACS/ANA_DATA_IMPORT from the SAP BW system and the storage of the initially unchecked data in the SAP ERP system (tables/stwacs/wl,/stwacs/wl_ass,/stwacs/wl_strvl). For further use, additional information must be added to this raw data within with the help of the enrichment report and the data must be converted into the structures required for General So that the analysis data transferred from SAP BW system can be used in, an enrichment report is used to enrich the data with information, some of which only exists in the SAP ERP system. During enrichment, numerous existence checks are carried out on the transferred data in tables/stwacs/wl, /STWACS/WL_ASS and/stwacs/wl_strvl (articles, stores, stock transfer amounts). In addition, the data is moved to the structures and tables needed for (primarily tables /STWACS/ARTICLES,/STWACS/STORES,/STWACS/STOCK) Calling the Enrichment Report The enrichment report is called using transaction/stwacs/start_enr. Any errors and inconsistencies that occur are written to an error log, which is accessed within stock transfer management (Environment -> Show Enrichment Log).

Only data of a temporary nature in terms of meaning and the existence of which is not a condition for tracing the integrative process flow within the SAP system can be deleted from the SAP system. Entries for the following objects can be deleted from the system using the reorganization report: Worklist The worklist provides the analysis data from an SAP BW system, which is then used to enrich additional information for further processing. Stock transfer document All the stock transfers processed in are grouped into stock transfer documents. Each stock transfer document relates to exactly one generic article and its variants. Plausibility data When stock transfer documents are released and the stock transport orders are then created, certain data, such as the article number and sender and recipient store, is updated in tables. This data enables you to carry out customer-specific plausibility checks in BAdIs. For example, you can use these to ensure that an article that has already been transferred is not processed again, or that a sender store is not flagged as a recipient SAP AG or an SAP affiliate company.

Such groupings are to enable the user in a follow-on step within the Stock Transfer Workbench to handle such grouped article based work list data in one go. Within the Stock Transfer Workbench, articles that are grouped together are always handled as some kind of appropriate article set. Such article groupings are displayed under the same nodes within the selection tree of the Stock Transfer Workbench as well as they are handled by the same stock transfer document, accordingly.

54 Example Within the Stock Transfer Workbench, all dark colored T-shirts should be worked on at the same time, as well as all light colored T-shirts. However dark colored and light colored T-shirts should never be worked on together. In such a case, both the dark colored T-shirts as well as the light colored T-shirts would be grouped each, accordingly. As per SAP standard, a default implementation, that is, class/stwacs/cl_def_im_x_enr_group, is provided. Here, the following logic applies: All variants of the same generic article are grouped together All single articles are grouped 1 to 1.
