There are many standard inventory management reports available in SAP.

Let's look at the Material Document List report. To do so, we'll enter transaction code MB51 and press Enter.

This report is going to show every material document in the system based on our selection criteria. We'll enter Plant 1710, and we also want to enter Movement Type.

We'll click the Match Code button in Movement Type to see our options. We'll choose 101 to show all goods receipts at Plant 1710, and we'll execute this report.

We want to see the most recent document first. To do this, we'll click in the Posting Date column and click Sort in Descending Order.

From left to right, we have our material, which is RM15, the plant, which is 1710, the storage location, which is 171C, and the Movement Type, which is 101, which is a goods receipt.

Next, we have our material document number, the items, and the posting date.

Finally, we have our quantity, which is 500 pieces.

This is an interactive report, so we can drill down and look directly at the material documents.

To do this, we'll click on the document number we want to view and click Material Document.

This brings us into the Display Document view. This is handy if we want to see more details.

For example, our report didn't show who the vendor was, so we can click on the Vendor tab.

The Vendor tab shows us this was a domestic US supplier based out of Boston, and it shows the vendor number.

To return to our list, we'll click the Back button.

This is only one of the standard inventory management reports in SAP.

Let's look at some of the other available reports. To do this, we'll press Exit and Exit again.

This takes us back to the SAP Easy Access screen. We'll expand the Logistics folder and then Materials Management.

Now we'll expand Inventory Management. Next, we'll expand Environment and then List Displays.

These five reports are compiled lists that help us get good insights into inventory management.

We'll also expand the Stock folder. As you can see, there are many inventory management reports for each of the movement types and to suit your specific data needs.
