I will go with option 6 suggested by Craig, as I find that the simplest one. The standard authorization objects are available based on storage location by means of which you can restrict the use of such batches being sold. I would like to know below points in more details if you don't mind!
- You mentioned that the material has become obsolete. Does that mean you would not be using these batches at all or want to restrict the usage for specific duration?
- If obsolete, then why not to scrap them using 551? What would you do with the inventory?
- What business challenges you see for not doing MB1B also?
I am not sure on below alternative but just explore if works
- Material to material transfer! Image may be NSFW.
Clik here to view.
Sounds interesting, I never tried. Just my guess. Perform 309 for the same material. From Material A and Batch 'X' to Material A and Batch 'Y' - Check with materials and finance team for the impacts if they are using split valuation.
