2 :: what is the difference between PP and PP-PI?
Which one is better and how?
PP--> Prodction Planning mostly used for descrete type of
industries , where at the time of confirmation the output is
sure to be fixed. eg Automobile
PP- PI--> Production Planning for Process Industries , here
mostly used for the typical chemical industries , as the
Yield is not fixed due to chemical reaction yield values can
be varied to noticable extent. Eg X+Y =Z some 10 kg of X
and 1 KG of Y givs yiled that is Z of 10 Kg only.

3 :: If there are some errors in goods movements, and less stock of material consumed, how can i solve that problem in SAP?
According to me COGI is basically a SAP standardised system
which will tell you that what is the error in some cases it
can rectify it too.
But if the entry is done manually by MB1A, MB1B, MB1C you
have to bring back or cancell the movement or move the
stock to desired material and then refresh COGI.
