In order for you to decide if you want to use 40 or 70 you need to describe the 2 different processes for the business users. Do they want to use the simple way (70) of issuing material from plant to plant (without taking available stock into account) or the more controlled way by using SP 40 where you can have detailed control of moving products from plant to plant....

Subject: Query regarding cross-plant planning
> I have two manufacturing plants P1 and P2
> Raw material RMA is procured for P1 and Finished good FGA is produced in P1.
> Finished good FGB is produced in P2 and uses RMA and FGA as BOM components. It is planned using strategy ?10?.
>
> Following options exist for planning RMA & FMA
> Using special procurement key 70
> 1.a. In plant P2, RMA has procurement type F and SPK 70 (withdrawal from alternative plant)
> In plant P1 it has procurement type F.
> 1.b. In plant P2, FMA should have what procurement type (E or F)? How does this affect planning? Should it be valuated at std. price or moving avg. price in P2?
> I maintain SPK 70 (withdrawal from alternative plant) for FMA in P2.
> In plant P1, FMA has procurement type E.

> In this case all dependent requirements for RMA & FMA (when BOM of FGB is exploded) are created in P1, not P2. Also all procurement proposals are created in P1. No stock of material must be maintained separately in P2, since MRP will not consider this stock.
> How will person in plant P2 know how much stock of RMA & FMA is physically lying in his plant P2, since in SPK 70, only stock in P1 is considered.
> Also, person in P2 must be able to withdraw RMA & FMA from P1 only after getting approval from P1. How can this be achieved?
