hello, if I have a transport between 2 different plants with the same company code, PO will be NB type? or Stock Transport type? regards.

Hi Adrian,

If you are transporting between two plants with the same Company code it will under Intra STO. If you are given NB the system will accept but the actual document type you have maintain is UB.
