Deconsolidation process in EWM

[Former Member]

Hi All,
Could anyone please explain to me in which case we will have the below scenario:

"The activity areas for the products within an HU are the same, but the consolidation groups are different."

https://help.sap.com/saphelp_ewm2007/helpdata/en/a5/38da4023a28631e10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm

We assign the consolidation group to Activity Area then, how the consolidation groups can be different for same Activity Area ?

Thanks in advance !!

Hi Shiv,

I have not come across this error message so difficult to comment.

HI,

What you are saying is logical and as per standard SAP. At what point are you getting the error message?

What I suggest is to check the AA assigned to the destination bin determined in the putaway task. Is your pallet going to the Deconsolidation station as per the POSC?

Hi Sushant,

Sorry for late response.

I am not getting any error message. As I said I was just curious in which case we'll be needing this option. What could be a possible scenario where we could use this... any business example ?

HI,

Can you give more details on what are you trying to setup/test? Is the HU a nested HU and you are trying to deconsolidate?

Hi Sushant,

Thank you for your response.

I was just curious about the use of this option in deconsolidation process. As far as I know we assign a consolidation group to an Activity area at IMG - EWM - Master Data - AA - Assign Storage bins to AA.

So, if we have one Consolidation group for one AA then in which case we will be having the below scenario:

"The activity areas for the products within an HU are the same, but the consolidation groups are different."
