SAP Transactions with Syncade in Life Sciences – Goods Issue

In previous post entitled SAP Transactions with Syncade in Life Sciences – Overview the basics behind the SAP to Syncade interface and transaction was provided. This post provides more detail on the general requirements associated with the Good Issue transaction used to reduce stock in SAP.  This is typically at point of use such as consumption operations.  The Goods Issue transaction is commonly used in conjunction with the Quality Status Verification transaction described in a previous post SAP Transactions with Syncade in Life Sciences – Quality Status Verification.

When weigh and dispense materials are dispensed and when area dispensed materials are dispensed and consumed, the interface can transmit a Goods Issue transaction to SAP.  The transaction conducts the Goods Issue in real time and relies on the location information in Syncade to report to SAP where to debit the inventory.  The Goods Issue is associated to the SAP Process Order and against any pre-assigned reservation if the appropriate reservation and phase information has been provided for the SAP Process Order.

When performing the Goods Issue transaction in SAP the following rules may apply depending on the established business logic and the actual requirements:

  • The default location for the Goods Issue transaction in SAP will be the staging/manufacturing area defined in SAP.
  • Production Order material reservations in SAP will need to be manually closed.
  • If a material is returned as unused from a Production Order, the Goods Issue transaction in SAP will need to be manually reversed
