• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message MM466 - &: & physical inventory indicator set for stock in quality inspection ?

  The SAP error message MM466 indicates that a physical inventory indicator has been set for stock that is currently in quality inspection. This typically occurs when you attempt to perform a physical inventory count on stock that is not in a state that allows for counting, such as stock that is under quality inspection.
  Cause:
  The error arises because the stock in question is marked as being in quality inspection, which means it is not available for general use or inventory counting. The physical inventory process requires that stock be in a state that allows it to be counted, and quality inspection stock is not considered available for this purpose.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Stock Status: Verify the status of the stock in question. You can do this by using transaction codes like MMBE (Stock Overview) to see the stock status.
  
  
  Release Quality Inspection Stock: If the stock is indeed in quality inspection and you want to include it in the physical inventory, you will need to either:
  
  Release the stock from quality inspection: This can be done by performing the necessary quality inspection steps and then transferring the stock to unrestricted use.
  Change the stock status: If the stock is not going to be used, you may need to adjust the inventory records accordingly.
  
  
  
  Exclude Quality Inspection Stock from Inventory Count: If you do not want to include the quality inspection stock in the physical inventory, ensure that your inventory counting process excludes these items.
  
  
  Adjust Inventory Count Settings: Review the settings in your physical inventory configuration to ensure that it aligns with your business processes regarding quality inspection stock.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as MB1A (Goods Withdrawal), MB1B (Transfer Posting), and MB1C (Other Goods Receipts) for managing stock movements.
  Quality Management (QM) Module: Understanding the QM module can help you manage quality inspection processes effectively.
  Physical Inventory Process: Review the physical inventory process in SAP to ensure compliance with your organization's policies and procedures.
  
  If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP support team or refer to SAP documentation for further troubleshooting.
