Stock transfer processes in S/4HANA
Carry out stock transfer across plants
Use your own company's resources to procure materials “internally” and consider cross-plant requirements for planning purposes. Handle your stock transfer processes digitally with SAP S/4HANA and carry out transfer postings directly on the goods.
This means you always have an overview of the current stock and ensure that stock transfers of certain goods to other plants are carried out quickly, safely and efficiently.

Stock transfer functionalities
- This is a pure stock transfer posting without stock transport order and delivery
- You have the choice between two posting logics that can be used for stock transfer orders:
- One-step procedure: No double postings are required. Neither in the receiving nor in the supplying plant
- Two-step procedure: The stock in transit is maintained until the receiving plant confirms the goods delivery
- Transfer postings are recommended if the plants are not geographically far away from each other and it is not necessary to take them into account in planning
- Fast and simple process handling, ensured with few process participants
- The requirement for a material is triggered and supported by the system in the form of a stock transport order from the receiving plant
- The receipt and issue of your materials is easier to plan in both plants and is relevant for planning purposes
- You have the option of carrying out a cross-plant availability check
- Benefit from greater transparency regarding your requirements and stocks
- Your transportation costs can be calculated precisely
- Take advantage of the opportunity to include other costs in your pricing. For example, procurement costs or freight costs
- Your goods issue process can be completed with an outbound delivery and delivery documents can be created automatically
- The entire process of your stock transport order can be tracked at any time via the document flow and order history
- A stock transfer takes place between plants they belong to the same company code
- Transportation costs are charged internally
- Booking processes are automated
- A stock transfer takes place between plants they don’t belong to the same company code
- Transportation costs are charged with a pro forma invoice
- Creation and dismantling of receivables and liabilities
- Legal requirements must be met
