SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

1. Send stock to a subcontractor by using APP "Post Transfer Posting" with movement 541
2. Click on button "Post" and an outbound delivery is created
3. The Subcontractor cannot be updated in Ship-to Party

Outbound delivery with movement type 541 cannot cause the goods movement and materials in this outbound delivery are still in the plant. So the "Ship-to Party" in this outbound delivery cannot be updated as the subcontractor.

Movement Type 541 is a SAP standard behavior called "Transfer of unrestricted-use stock to subcontracting stock". With this movement type, materials can only establish contact with the subcontractor without goods movement.
