What is the difference between the stock transfer between
two plants belonging to same company code and those
belonging to

different company code?

Answer Posted / varaghamurthy ck

For same Company Code: Stock transfer from plant to plant
affects both accounting and Materials Planning, as follows:

Accounting

Accounting is affected if both plants are assigned to
different valuation areas. This means that a stock transfer
leads not only to a quantity update but also to a value
update (stock value, G/L accounts). Thus, parallel to the
material document for stock transfer, an accounting
document is created.

For different Company codes:

During the stock transfer, two accounting documents are
created in addition to the material document:

An accounting document for the removal from storage at the
issuing company code.

An accounting document for the placement into storage at
the receiving company code.

The stock posting is offset against a company code clearing
account
