Sap Modules Interview Questions and Answers
What is the difference between the stock transfer
between two plants belonging to same company code and
those belonging to different company code?
Answer1:
A stock transfer from plant to plant generally takes
place within a company code. It can, however, also take
place between two company codes, if the plants are
assigned to different valuation areas, which belong to
different company codes.
Unlike a stock transfer from storage location to storage
location, a 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.
* Materials Planning
Materials Planning is affected because a change of plant
stock is taken into account by Materials Planning.
Answer2:
The stock transfer from one plant to another belonging
to same company code is same as that of belonging to
different company code functionally.
In both the types of transfers, there will be a material
document generated which will update the QTY in both the
plants in the respective storage location.
Accounting document generation will depend on the
valuation level of the material. If the materials are
being valuated at company level and it is being
transferred from one plant to another belonging to the
same company code, no accounting entry is generated.
However, if the valuation is being done at plant level,
the accounting document will be generated in both the
cases.

value assigned to it until it is taken into own stock.
Once it is used in production or to be sold, it is taken

What are the steps involved in consignment cycle?
Consignment cycle is similar to a standard purchase
cycle. The difference it that no accounting document is

updated.
It is settled once the same is utilized.
Tell me about the subcontracting cycle.
When the material is sent for subcontracting i.e. some
value addition, it is converted into a different
material. It needs a BOM to define the components of the
finished item being received.

doing a quality inspection of the material received
after subcontracting.

care of in subcontracting?
