Bulk material indicator and shipping

[Lala]

Hi all,

We have a part which is mark as bulk material in one company code and plant and does not have this indicarot marked in another company code and plant.

For the plant where bulk indicator is checked, there is no stock information, as it would be.

When a PO is created for the plant and company code where the indicator is NOT checked for the plant and company code for which the indicator IS checked (PO is processed by the supplying plant as stock tranfer order ) when shipping, system wants stock information (storage location, supply area) to be specified. Since in the supplying plant material is bulk material there is no stock information.
In order to process this stock has to be created and then delivery has to be processed. This should not happen, please can anyone let me know the reason for this.

Thanks,
Lala
