2. The repairable spares disentail first & change the valuation type Defective. ( In case of valuation types are new, refurbished, defective )

3. Creation a Refurbishment Order

 b) In the section Quantities, enter the total number of repairable spares which should be refurbished for this order.
 c) The plant and storage location from which you want to withdraw the repairable spares to be refurbished ( Valuation Type : Defective )
 d) The plant and storage location to which you will return the repairable spares to be refurbished. (Valuation Type : Refurbished )
 e) Save the refurbishment order.

4. The employees responsible for the refurbishment withdraw the repairable spares to be refurbished from the warehouse, along with all the other materials scheduled in the order that you require for the refurbishment. The goods issue is entered. ( Movement Type 261) 

5. The employees responsible for the refurbishment enter completion confirmations for the refurbishment order. These completion confirmations provide an indication of how much work has been done.

6. A goods receipt ( movement Type 101 ) is posted for the refurbished repairable spares. This automatically updates the valuation type (Refurbished) in the serial number master record. The repairable spares are now in full working order again and can be used.

7.The quantity delivered is displayed in the order header. 

8. Refurbishment orders can be settled to the material to be refurbished.
