    SAP Message W7063

    Message Text:
    Project stock exists for material &1 in plant &2 in storage location &3


    Cause

    This warning message appears when you attempt to perform a goods movement or stock change for a material that is managed as project stock (stock assigned to a WBS element or network) in a specific plant and storage location. The system detects that there is existing project stock for the material in the specified plant and storage location.

    Typically, this message occurs in scenarios such as:

    • Trying to transfer or consume stock that is project stock without proper reference to the project.
    • Attempting to change stock type or perform movements that are not allowed directly on project stock.
    • Creating or posting goods movements without specifying the project stock assignment (WBS element or network).

    Explanation

    Project stock is stock that is assigned to a specific project (WBS element or network) and is managed separately from unrestricted or other stock types. This allows tracking of material consumption and inventory specifically for projects.

    The system issues this warning to prevent incorrect handling of project stock, which could lead to inconsistencies in project accounting and inventory management.


    Solution / How to Resolve

    1. Check the Stock Type:

      • Verify if the material is managed as project stock in the given plant and storage location.
      • Use transaction MB52 or MB5T to check stock overview and confirm project stock quantities.
    2. Use Correct Movement Type and Reference:

      • When posting goods movements involving project stock, always specify the WBS element or network to which the stock belongs.
      • Use movement types that support project stock movements (e.g., 311 with project stock reference).
    3. Adjust the Goods Movement:

      • If you want to consume or transfer project stock, ensure the movement references the project.
      • If you want to convert project stock to unrestricted stock, use appropriate transactions or movement types designed for this purpose.
    4. Check Customizing Settings:

      • Verify if project stock management is active for the material and plant.
      • Check settings in IMG under:
        Logistics Execution -> Project System Integration -> Project Stock -> Define Project Stock
    5. Consult Project System Team:

      • Coordinate with the project system or controlling team to ensure correct handling of project stock.

    Additional Information

    • Project Stock Types:
      Project stock can be managed as stock at project level (WBS element stock) or network stock.

    • Transactions to Check Project Stock:

      • MB52 - List Warehouse Stocks on Hand
      • MB5T - Stock in transit
      • CJ20N - Project Builder (to check WBS elements and assigned stock)
    • Movement Types for Project Stock:

      • 311 (Transfer posting) with project stock reference
      • 201 (Goods issue) with project stock reference
    • SAP Notes / Documentation:

      • Refer to SAP Help Portal for Project Stock Management
      • SAP Note related to project stock handling and movement types

    Summary

    Aspect Details
    Cause Attempt to move or change stock without proper reference to existing project stock.
