Hello Expert,
My scenario is I am creating HU in ECC and sending same HU to EWM with inbound. Consider HU is having pack material type P001 and material number for HU is MAT10000. Here as the HU number is coming from outside EWM I need to maintain number range in packing material type as external otherwise IBD get failed as HU number was externally assigned. Now once inbound process is complete and sooner or later I need to execute the out bound process during which I will create HU during repacking , here I want to use same pack material type P001 and material number MAT10000 for HU , so system will ask my packer to assign the HU number externally.
Please share if you come across any such need to use same material with internal as well as external number range. Or if any workaround or configuration available which could help.
Thanks

Hi,
"Here as the HU number is coming from outside EWM I need to maintain number range in packing material type as external otherwise IBD get failed as HU number was externally assigned."
??? I have never had this problem and never heard of it. I also assign the number in ERP, whatever number range that is. And it is just accepted by EWM, without external number range assignment.
The problem you might have to pay attention to is that the internal number ranges in ERP and EWM do not overlap.

And it is EWM. NOT eWM - Duh!

Hi Jürgen,
it be accepted if you do not have any external number ranges.
If you do have external number ranges (for some other processes for example) and incoming HU number does not fit to any interval (external or internal), you get an error message MESSAGE e085(/scwm/hu_wm).
So if one external interval is defined it should cover HU Number from ERP or separate interval has to be created to cover it.
But I do not get the problem anyway. One can define external interval, for the corresponding internal interval in ERP.

Thanks for reply . Packing material have internal number range assigned in EWM . Now when inbound delivery hitting the EWM , I can see below error message in inactive delivery.
If I change the assignment to external , it work fine as EWM accept what INB is carrying as HU number. With this change trouble is we want to use same packing material for shipping HU and during repacking system ask user to enter HU number.
Thanks

Hi Ritesh, you can split your intervals e.g.
if i remember right you do not need to have an explicit assignment for external number range.
System just makes sure that you internal interval wont overlap with external HU number.

Hi,
"Thanks for reply . Packing material have internal number range assigned in EWM . Now when inbound delivery hitting the EWM , I can see below error message in inactive delivery."
OK, so you have assigned an internal number range and the external number overlaps with that - of course that creates errors.
It is as Daniil wrote, you need to separate the number ranges you use in ERP from the ones in EWM. And in both cases you only need an internal number range (AFAIK).
