In IFS help, there are system events of COMPMDIFF-, COMPMDIFF+, COMPM-IN, COMPM-OUT and COMPM-TRIN. It is mentioned that these would be triggered by intercompany transfers via posting controls of M1, M88,M89 and M90.

I can see that IFS help has clear descriptions about intersite transactions within same company. But there are no scenarios of what are the transactions would cause these intercompany events and how does affect the posting controls. Anyone have idea about these events and posting controls.

 

@HoiNiresT, the easiest steps you would take is,

  • Register a part in two sites of two different companies.
  • Using, Move Inventory Part window, move some qty from one company to another. 
  • This should create COMPM-IN, COMPM-OUT
  • If there is a price difference caused here, it will create a  COMPMDIFF
  • If there is a transit involved, it will create COMPM-TRIN. The same logic.

When the transaction is created, I dont think it is difficult for you to analyse the postings yourself in transaction history. 


Further for COMP-DIFF,

1. Create part in two different companies with inventory valuation method Standard Cost 
2. Calculate part cost different for each site. 
3. Move part from one site to another. 

If you move part with with less cost from site to site where cost is greater system create event code 
COMPMDIFF+ for the difference, and when you move part with greater cost to site with less cost, COMPMDIFF- is created. 


Hello.

Can those posting control triggered when using the intercompany flow (CO to a sister company) ?

Thanks
