You can use this process to post a vehicle in stock from one plant, or dealer's branch, to another plant when the plants are in the same company code. You may want to do this, for example, if a customer at plant B wishes to purchase a vehicle that is currently situated at plant A. The following graphic illustrates this case:

Process

1. A customer decides on the required vehicle.
2. Salesperson A discovers that the vehicles assigned to plant A do not coincide with the customer's requirements. However, another vehicle in plant B fulfills the customer's requirements.
3. Salesperson A telephones salesperson B to request permission to create a quotation and sell the vehicle.
4. Salesperson A assigns the customer to the vehicle. The system uses the VMS action QACU (Assign Customer VSS)to do this.
5. Salesperson A creates a quotation and shows it to the customer. The system uses the VMS action OFFE (Create Quotation) to do this.
6. The customer accepts the quotation.
7. Salesperson A creates a sales order. The system uses the VMS action QCSD (Create Sales Order VSS) to do this.
8. So that the goods movement can take place and a goods issue can be created, the interlinking action QVTP (Transfer Between Plants) has to be executed. This action contains the following primary/elementary actions:
   • QCIO Create Internal Order
   • QIOG Group Internal Order
   • QCOR Check Settlement Rules
   • QROC Transfer Costs
   • QCCV Batch and Valuation Check
   • QPGM Cross-Plant Goods Movement
   • QLIO Complete Internal Order
