Best way to delete storage section: WM

[former_member326292]

Hi All,

There is a requirement to delete the storage section from one storage type ST1 and create the storage section SC1 with same ID in another storage type ST2

I see there are 2 ways to do that.

1st

Change the bins where SC1 is used -> delete the storage search sequence for SC1 -> delete SC1 ->  create SC1 in ST2 -> create search sequence

2nd

Change the bins where SC1 is used -> delete the storage search sequence for SC1 -> create new storage section SC2 in ST2 -> create search sequence for SC2 -> change SC1 description as "Do no use"

I want to use the 1st way but not sure if it will lead to any inconsistency.

Please suggest how should I go about it.

Hi All,

Thanks all for the suggestions.

@ Jacob: Is it really required not have any open TOs for the storage type in which I am trying to delete the storage section as I have already changed the section in all the bins and as far as TO goes it only has storage type and bin, so TO does not have any direct connection with storage section except through Bin.

Good day,

I doubt it is actually a technical requirement but I would do a quick test if having no open T.O. is troublesome at your location. I would test in lower system to ensure there are no issues with confirming the T.O. after storage section change.

The reason I would want to test personally is because for me, at my location, I simply ask them to complete the open T.O. by the end of the day and I change the bins when they are done. It is no problem at all for me to make that request at my location. I only do so to avoid any possible issues...and to avoid testing myself   🙂

That suggestion is just to be on the "safe side"
