GoodsReceipt

The business object goods receipt is the receipt of goods from
an external vendor or from production. A goods receipt leads to an increase in warehouse stock.

Structure

There are the following types of goods receipt:

A goods receipt consists of several items, in which the quantity and and, if required, the value are contained.

Integration

The quantity contained in each item changes the stock in the plant, in
the storage location, or in the storage bin. In the case of valuated
materials, the system updates the stock account at the same time.

Goods receipt that are intended directly for consumption result in the stock being updated.

An item in a goods receipt is not necessarily a receipt of material, as an item can also be a reversal of a goods receipt.

Available Methods

• Cancel : Reverse goods movement [ BAPI_GOODSMVT_CANCEL ]
  
• CreateFromData : Post goods movement [ BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE ]
  
• GetDetail : Display details of goods movement [ BAPI_GOODSMVT_GETDETAIL ]
  
• GetItems : Display detailed list of material documents [ BAPI_GOODSMVT_GETITEMS ]
  

Cancel

Using the Cancel method, material documents can be cancelled by callingup the function module MB_CANCEL_GOODS_MOVEMENT. You can only cancelone material document each time you call up the transaction. You shouldnote that the system does not delete the original document, but creates a new material document (reversal document).

Notes

The following authorization object is checked when this method is used:

Transfer

The key fields for the material document, MATERIALDOCUMENT and MATDOCUMENTYEAR have to be transferred to the method as import
parameters.

The posting date with the field GOODSMVT_PSTNG_DATE und the user name with the field GOODSMVT_PR_UNAME are also imported.

In table GOODSMVT_MATDOCITEM, you have the option of transferring thematerial document items that are to be cancelled. If no items are transferred, all the items in the material document are cancelled.

Confirmations

Once the system has successfully cancelled a material document, itreturns the material document number and material document year key fields in the GOODSMVT_HEADRET parameter to the initiator.

Messages are returned in the parameter return. The parameter
documentation shows the return codes and their meanings.

Further Information

The method can only carry out your function if no error messages weregenerated in the "Return" table. This is the case if the header data and all the items were processed successfully.

Transaction control is not implemented. The calling program thereforehas to execute the 'Commit Work' itself after this method has beensuccessfully invoked (i.e. if no errors were reported in the Return parameter).

CreateFromData

You can use this method to create a material document for a goods movement.

You can only create one material document each time you call up the method.

You can use a simulation function before posting the goods movement tocheck how the data is updated in the database. The standard system is
configured so that the goods movement is posted immediately without simulating beforehand.

Notes

The following authorization object is checked when this method is used:

Transfer

The following information about the material document that is to be created is transferred to the method:

The posting is carried out in the R/3 System via the MB_CREATE_GOODS_MOVEMENT function module.

Confirmations

Further Information

The method can only carry out your function if no error messages were
generated in the "Return" table. This is the case if the header data and all the items were processed successfully.

For 6 GM_Code 06: Reversal of goods movements

You can use the Cancel method to reverse goods movements. But you mayalso want to cancel a goods movement without referencing a material document (see the Cancel method).

If you want to work without referencing the document, you have to fillthe field BAPI_GM_ITEM_CREATE-XSTOB in the interface. In this case, thesystem converts the movement type assigned in the interface to thereversal movement type. Alternatively you can set the reversal movement
type in the interface. In this case, the BAPI_GM_ITEM_CREATE_XSTOB field must be transferred blank.

If you want to cancel a goods movement with reference to a reservation(without using the Cancel method) you can only transfer the field BAPI_GM_ITEM_CREATE_XSTOB if it is filled. Movement types are not
transferred when you post with reference to a reservation, as the movement type is contained in the reservation item.

GetDetail

The GetDetail method enables you to read a whole document (header anditems) using the material document's key fields. The document is not blocked during this procedure.

Notes

The following authorization object is checked when this method is used:

Transfer

The key fields of the material document (MATERIALDOCUMENT and MATDOCUMENTYEAR) have to be transferred to the method as import
parameters.

In the GOODSMVT_HEADER parameter, the initiator receives the header information for the document chosen.

In the GOODSMVT_ITEMS table, the initiator receives data for each item in the material document chosen.

Messages are returned in the parameter return. The parameterdocumentation shows the return codes and their meanings.

Further Information

The method can only carry out your function if no error messages weregenerated in the "Return" table. This is the case if the header data and all the items were processed successfully.
