Mass stock relocation in warehouse without creating individual warehouse tasks

[SAPSupport]

We need to:

• Create new storage types and storage bins
• Physically move articles to new storage locations
• During the relocation, we will record article numbers, quantities, base unit of measure, current storage bins, and the new storage bins in an Excel spreadsheet.

Please provide:

• Applicable apps or tools
• Documentation or how-to steps

Our requirement: We want to avoid creating a warehouse task for each material individually.

Dear SAP Community,

To manage the creation of new storage types and bins, and the relocation of articles in SAP S/4HANA Cloud 2502, follow these steps:

Applicable Apps and Tools

Create Storage Bins

• Create Storage Bins App: Warehouse Management - Create Storage Bins This app allows you to create storage bins within your warehouse structure. You can specify the warehouse, assign a storage type, and define attributes for each bin.
• Mass Create Storage Bins App: Warehouse Management - Mass Create Storage Bins This app enables you to create, edit, or delete multiple storage bins simultaneously based on predefined storage bin structures.

Product Master Data

1. Manage Product Master Data App: You can use the Manage Product Master Data app (Fiori ID: F1602) to search, display, edit, create, and copy master data for products effectively and quickly. It ensures that the master data displayed is always consistent.

Documentation and How-To Steps

Creating Storage Types and Bins

1. Create Storage Types:

   • Navigate to the configuration environment and use the search function to open the activity ‘Create Storage Types Using Templates’.

2. Create Storage Bins:

   • Use the ‘Create Storage Bins’ app to specify the warehouse and assign a storage type.
   • Define the location of the storage bin, such as aisle, stack, and coordinates.

3. Mass Create Storage Bins:

   • Use the ‘Mass Create Storage Bins’ app to simulate and create storage bins for a predefined structure.
   • This app allows you to handle multiple bins efficiently without creating individual tasks for each material.

Relocating Articles

• Record article numbers, quantities, base unit of measure, current storage bins, and new storage bins in an Excel spreadsheet.
• Use the ‘Internal Movements’ functionality to move products to different storage bins without creating individual warehouse tasks for each material.

Guidance for Handling Relocation

• Internal Movements: Warehouse Management - Internal Movements This feature includes replenishment, rearrangement, ad hoc movements, and posting changes. It allows for efficient management of warehouse space and order fill efficiency.

• Avoiding Individual Warehouse Tasks: By using internal movements and mass creation tools, you can handle multiple items collectively, reducing the need for individual tasks.
