Hi Kaz,

Thanks for your support, I can create the flow, but I still have 1 question: Some error POs
when I press "Reprocessing" and it still pending, don't hanve any process even though i
fixed the error.

I applied snote 3295910 - Enable reprocessing of hanging event queues after a

dump/exception in VCM and uste t-code VCM_RESOLVE - Resolve incons. business
processes but the PO status in VCM still remain "Reprocessing"

Do you have any solution about this ?

Best regards,

Minh.

Hi Kaz,

1 - My PO has tax code in line item

2 - I have config mapping tax code between billing in Logistics Invoice Verification
→
Advanced Intercompany Processes → Assign Tax Codes for the Transfer of
Supplier Invoices.

Tax code in PO just in every PO line, I think the message tell us we need to find a way to
input tax code in MIRO header in advanced sto auto create invoice. I also tried to default
tax code per company code in Logistics Invoice Verification - Incoming Invoice - Maintain
Default Values for Tax Codes but it no help.

Please let me know if there are any mistakes.

Hi Kaz,

It's nothing new, just base on the configuration guide on snote 3233845 - Configuration
Steps for Advanced Intercompany Stock Transfer in SAP S/4HANA

The error abow occurred because of mapping wrong Customer code in this step, so the
tax code mapping is null.

Best regards, Minh

Hello Minh,

I think that your customizing amendment won't affect already created PO unfortunately.

Hello Jack,

aATP seems not to work.

Please check the customizing under IMG>Cross-Application Components>Advanced

Availability-to-Promise (aATP)> Configuration Activities for Specific Document
Types>Stock Transport Orders>Configure Delivery Type & Availability Check Procedure
by Plant.

And check your material master has aATP activated Availability check group (IMG>Cross-
Application Components>Advanced Availability-to-Promise (aATP)> Define Avalability
Checking Groups>Define Availability Checking Group)

Then recreate another STO and create the delivery document.

And check Monitor the Advanced Intercompany Stock Transfer” process by “Monitor
Value Chains” Fiori Apps log as your error message said.

Best regards, Kaz

Hi Kazuhisa,

Thanks for the prompt reply.

I have successfully created 'NBIC' PO, 'CBIC' SO and 'NCC3' outbound delivery, but
initiating document is still not appeared on the monitor value chain.

I have checked related authorizations, cleared cache in Chrome and restarted my laptop.
Do you have any clue about this?

Hello Pyo,

So, you can created STO's delivery document and a sales order of delivering company.

However, they didn't appear in VCM.

Check the customizing under IMG> Material Management>Purchasing>Purchase

Order>Advanced Inter company Processes

If there is no mistake, then check the every customizing one by one.

Best regards, Kaz

Hi, thanks for the great document. Can I find the reason why you mentioned that aATP
should be used? Cheers.

Hi Kazuhisa, another question is I cannot find the Best Practice for this advanced STO
functionality (and the intercompany sales one) for New Zealand. Can we still use the
functionality if we do the configuration manually?

Appreciate your advice on the above. Cheers.

Hello Kazuhisa,

Can you tell me something about advanced IC STO cancellation process?

I'm not able to cancel any of the documents in the flow after posting GI on the delivering
company. First message that appears after attempting to do GI reversal is that inbound
delivery exists and that it must be deleted beforehand. After deleting inbound delivery, GI
reversal is not possible because the delivery in question is locked by another user *.

So, what are the exact steps for advanced IC STO cancellation process?

Hi Iwamoto-san

Thanks for your great blog!

I am now following Note 3233845 and your blog to test the process.
I met two questions, would you please kindly give me some advice, Thanks in advance.

Q1:
Internal Seles order is not created automatically by VCM
Error message is:

10/13
No item category available (Table T184 CBIC CBNA )

But you could see at the attachment,

the customazing is the combination of Sales document: CBIC + Item category: CBIC.
and I could not find where is CBNA come from.

System Info: S4HANA ON PREMISE 2022 Initial Shipment Stack

Q2: In you blog, you mentioned about the sales price.

>Receiving company’s Internal purchase price and Sending company’s Internal sales
price
>should be exactly same.

If i understand correctly, system could not bring PO price to SO,

and sales price should create manually?

Hello Yuhu,

I think the Item Category Group "CBNA" is set in your material master.

The item category group should be "NORM".

Is multi-level tier also supported where the intermediate company would be there
between shipping and receiving companies? I tried and could not find any documentation.

Thanks,

Hi, in general we have got the solution up and running in the S/4HANA On-Premise
system. One observation is that the ship-to BP comes from the customer number
assignment for the receiving plant when we assigned a storage location which derived a
different customer BP on the Shipping tab of the STO. The outbound delivery actually
takes the customer BP on the Shipping tab of the STO. This is inconsistent and would
cause confusion for the users. Is this standard or considered a bug? I have looked up
OSS but could not find any relevant notes. Appreciate any clarification on the above.
Cheers.
