Customer RTP

When you sell goods to a customer, you may send the goods in returnable packaging. During sales order
processing, you simply enter the returnable packaging as an item in your order with item category as TAL in a
standard order type OR.


The schedule line category E3/E2 is determined based on item category TAL and MRP type of the
packaging material. The movement Type linked to Schedule Line category E2 and E3 is 621.
The relevant quantity is removed from regular inventory in your plant and is added to the special
stock for the customer. The total valuated stock for the plant remains the same.


If the customer returns the returnable packaging to you, you record the transaction in the system
by creating a returnable packaging pick-up order AT or RE, The schedule line category F3/F2 is
determined based on item category LAN and MRP type of the packaging material. The movement
Type linked to Schedule Line category F2 and F3 is 622.


When Post Goods Receipt is done, the relevant quantity is deducted from the customers special
stock and is added back into your regular stock at the plant where the goods are returned. Your
total valuated stock remains the same since the returned stock was regarded as part of your own
inventory even while it was at the customers premises.

Pre-requisites:


The Packaging Material Type should be of LEIH.
Only Quantity Updation has to be done for the Material Type LEIH against the Valuation
Area in OMS2 transaction.

Scenario1: Let us a take an example of Gas stored in Cylinder. Here the Saleable Material is Gas and
the Packaging Material is Cylinder.

Create a Purchase Order with line item as GAS (Material = TCC-A01-509) and it can be a finished product or
trading goods.
During Good Receipt, the Packaging Material Cylinder (Material = TCC-C-A) can be added by
selecting the Non-Ordered item icon .

Note: We are not selecting the Transport Equipment since it cannot be issued for delivery from the Special
Stock (Vendor RTP) as Delivery always picks from the unrestricted stock.


For stock posting of Packaging Material Cylinder, we have to activate the below setting in Transaction
Code - OMS2:
