What is a Sell From Stock Sales Order?

In this type of sales order, the material is sold directly from the seller's own inventory or stock to the customer. The seller has the material in their own warehouse or storage location, and fulfills the order from there.

Suppose a customer wants to purchase a product that is currently available in the seller's inventory. The customer places a Sell From Stock Sales Order with the seller, who then picks the product from their own inventory and delivers it to the customer's location or delivery address.

Processing Steps in SAP SD

  1. 1The customer places a sales order with the seller for the product they need.
  2. 2The seller checks the availability of the product in their inventory or stock.
  3. 3If the product is available, the seller picks it from their inventory and prepares it for delivery.
  4. 4The seller creates a delivery document in SAP SD and triggers the billing process.
  5. 5The seller delivers the product to the customer's delivery address.

For example: a customer wants to purchase a laptop currently held in the seller's warehouse. The seller verifies stock, picks the laptop, creates a delivery document in SAP SD, delivers it to the customer, and triggers billing — all within a single sell-from-stock flow.
