When plannin your materials re)uirements it is not always important that you define the stocks andstorae locations from which the materials are later to be withdrawn# Automatic stock determination takescare of this decision for you thus preventin you from definin these parameters too early and restrictinyour business processses unnecessarily# The (!- system does not determine the values you re)uire untilthe oods movement is posted#

Based on the stock determination stratey you predefine the system makes decisions on material

withdrawal dependin on the material plant and the business process#

$ou can use stock determination for the followin stocks:

unrestricted*use stock
