• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RM355 - Materials with consignmt withdr. are excluded from stock transfer ?

  The SAP error message RM355, which states "Materials with consignment withdrawal are excluded from stock transfer," typically occurs when you attempt to transfer stock that is under consignment stock status. In SAP, consignment stock is stock that is owned by a vendor but is stored at the customer’s location. The customer only pays for the stock when it is withdrawn for use.
  Cause:
  The error arises because SAP does not allow the transfer of consignment stock between storage locations or plants. This is a standard behavior in SAP to prevent the movement of stock that is not owned by the company.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can consider the following options:
  
  
  Check Stock Type: Ensure that you are not trying to transfer consignment stock. You can check the stock type in the material master or stock overview.
  
  
  Convert Consignment Stock: If you need to move the stock, you can first convert the consignment stock to unrestricted stock. This can be done by performing a consignment withdrawal (using transaction code MB1B or MIGO) to change the stock status from consignment to unrestricted.
  
  
  Use Correct Movement Type: If you are trying to perform a stock transfer, ensure that you are using the correct movement type that is applicable for the stock type you are dealing with.
  
  
  Consult with Vendor: If the stock is still needed in consignment, consult with the vendor to see if they can provide the stock in a different manner that allows for transfer.
  
  
  Review Configuration: If this behavior is not expected, review the configuration settings related to consignment stock in your SAP system to ensure they align with your business processes.
