Storage type search based on quantity classification

[dominik_wagenfort]

Hello!

I am facing the following issue in embedded EWM in S/4:

During putaway the system determines the correct storage type based on the quantity classification - PAL to storage type A, EA to storage type B.

I was able to that by

- maintaining the quantity classification and the operative UoM in the packaging specifications (determined by using condition type 0IBD)

- maintaining the corresponding quantity specifications in the storage type related views of the product master.

That worked great until last week:

Now we receive inbound deliverys from MILL_OC production orders. These production orders pool two or more orders into one. The inbound delivery ends up with two item lines per inbound delivery.

EWM created one HU, but moved the HU to two different bins during putaway, because EWM created Warehouse Requests for each item of the inbound delivery.

So I set the parameter "Select HU w/o Storage Process" to create HU-WTs and EWM now moves the HU to one single bin as expected.

But now the storage type determination does not work properly as it ignores the quantity classification. I assume, that has something to do with the alternative UoM, which is PAL or EA according to the packaging spec in the case product WT. In the case of HU-WT it is always EA.

Which setting did I miss?

Thanks a lot!

Hi Dominik,

Are you using HU Type in packspec/Storage Type for HU WT ? ( Sorry, forgot the Consulting OSS Number which has mentioned this type of scenario and approach.)

Generally Pack spec is not required for Prod WT for quantity classification.

Kind Regards,

Hi Ajit,

Thank you for your answer. In the meantime I found OSS-Note 2438489, which says, that the content of an HU is irrelevant for creating a HU-WT. As an HU can possibly contain more than one product, SAP cannot decide which product/content to consider.

So I guess I have to use Badi /SCWM/EX_CORE_PTS_TYPSQ to create my own logic for storage type determination.
