MRKO - Pipeline Settlement TOPIC OBJECTIVES Business Process Procedure Overview Background A pipeline material is a material that flows directly into the production process from a pipeline (for example, oil), from a pipe (for example, tap water), or from another similar source (for example, electricity). A material from the pipeline is always available; i.e. it can be withdrawn from the pipeline at any time and in any quantity. The pipeline withdrawal has no effect on the existing warehouse stock or on the availability of the material. Only when you do this do you incur a liability toward the vendor. Payment is due at certain set intervals, for example, monthly. Scenario SABIC have pipeline materials as part of their Bill of Material. They do not expect an invoice from the vendor for goods withdrawals from the pipeline. Instead, they will settle posted withdrawals and return deliveries weekly, and send the vendor a statement of the settlement. This settlement periodically will be set up as a background batch job. Prerequisites Pipeline handling is mandatory for materials with material type PIPE; i.e. only withdrawals from the pipeline can be posted for these materials. These materials have the following characteristics: They are neither procured nor planned. They can be withdrawn from the pipeline at any time and in any quantity. They are not stored or kept in stock. No physical inventory is taken. Pipeline movements are mandatory in all valuation areas; i.e. no other goods movements may be posted. PROCEDURAL STEPS Menu Path
