Synopsis: Understanding which of the business processes are activated as 'Synchronous Posting' from EWM to S4. There is lot of stuff available in SAP community related to synchronous posting from S4 to EWM( Inbound External Receipts and Inbound Internal Receipt( MO), primarily a MIGO capability However, there are even direct synchronous posting conducted from EWM2S4.
Requirement: Synchronous posting from EWM2S4 are generally required because of following reasons.
- Avoid hanging queue from EWM2S4
- Avoid stock inconsistencies between EWM & S4
- Real time storage location extension during posting from /SCWM/ADGI( GM code=04, NWLO from EWM to non-EWM storage location).
Logic of Synchronous Posting from EWM2S4: Activation at warehouse level( SPRO-->Extended Warehouse Management-->Interfaces-->Goods Movements-->Activate Synchronous Goods Movement Posting)
/SCWM/CL_ERP_GOODSMVT_SYNC_S4 is the maintain service class for synchronous posting from EWM2S4.
Two important methods play a pivotal role for synchronous posting
/SCWM/IF_ERP_GOODSMVT_SYNC~SIMULATE_POSTING--> This method checks the corresponding S4 Data like sufficient stock availability or even master data extension like 'material is extended to storage location or nor in real time to avoid hanging queues and display of error at 'UI Level' at 10 EWM relevant transaction.
IS_GM_CODE_ALLOWED: This is the main method displaying the EWM relevant transaction meant for Synchronous posting from EWM to S4. There are total relevant processes, the blog will highlight the /SCWM/ADGI synchronous capability only from EWM to S4.
Below example is moving a Material from EWM managed to IM managed storage location using /SCWM/ADGI, GM Code=4)
System does the real time storage location extension check instead of posting and creating a hanging queue( If No Auto Sloc creation is enable in 411 Mvt type in S4).
The class /SCWM/CL_ERP_GOODSMVT_SYNC_S4 with method /SCWM/IF_ERP_GOODSMVT_SYNC~SIMULATE_POSTING performs all relevant synchronous posting simulation before posting goods movement. In below example, a real time stock availability check is performed during a Material movement from EWM to IM managed storage location.
Similarly all relevant synchronous posting can be conducted from EWM2S4 with below transaction as well which are mentioned
- Difference analyzer(/SCWM/DIFF_ANALYZER)
- Difference analyzer(/DIFF_ANA_CAT_CHG)- Stock category change during posting.
- Initial Stock upload( /SCWM/ISU)
- Posting change ( /SCWM/POST )
- /Unplanned Goods Issue( /SCWM/RGI_SCRAP)- /SCWM/ADGI
- Stock type change report( R_STOCK_TYPE_CHANGE )
- monitor posting change via 'BBD/SLED Overview'--->MON_DDATES_PC',
- monitor posting change via 'Physical Stock--> 'MON_PHYSTO_PC',
- Consumption against PMR- 'MFG_GI',
- Goods Movement Kanban Staging task Wbse to PSA- TO_KANBAN',
Thanks for reading. All relevant information replicated is based on my personal experience and insight. Relevant tests have been performed in S/4 HANA 2023 FPS02 system.
