SAP PP How to Create Goods Issue

A Goods Issue (GI) in SAP PP is the process of removing materials from inventory and issuing them to a production order. It represents the consumption of raw materials or components used in manufacturing.

When we post a goods issue, SAP reduces the stock of components and updates the production order with actual material consumption.

Prerequisites -

  • The production order should be created and in “REL” (Released) status.
  • Materials issued must be listed in the Bill of Material (BOM) of the finished product, otherwise SAP may need manual entry.
  • Stock should be present in the plant/storage location.

Here’s a step-by-step to Create Goods Issue –

Step-1: - Enter the transaction code MIGO in SAP command field and press Enter to continue.

Step-2: - Goods Receipt Purchase Order – username window appears. Select Goods Receipt, Order and enter production order number.

Step-3: - After entering the details, press Enter button.

Step-4: - Goods Issue Order xxxxxxxx – username window appears with list of components.

Step-5: - Select the option "Item Ok " with right mark and click on the Check button.

Step-6: - Now the green color status will be appeared indicating that document is OK for posting.

Step-7: - Once completing all the process, click on Save button to save the details.

Step-8: - Status bar displays a message as Material Document xxxxxxxx posted.
