Hello
You can try to do it using a storage location planned separately, but I don't recommend that, since it is a very limited functionality, which only allows you to use a reorder point MRP without external requirements. In addition, this functionality is no longer supported in S/4 HANA, so you would have a problem in a future upgrade.
The MRP area functionality was created exactly with the purpose of planning a storage location (or subcontractor) independently and it replaces the storage location planned separately in S/4 HANA. I think that creating a new plant for your storage location would be much more difficult than to implement MRP areas.
What is your concern against this solution?

Hello Caetano,
Thank you for your reply. Since the setting is on Client level and affects all Plants, MRP Areas are not desired by our organization, but I agree with you: as for S/4 HANA, so I learned too, it is the way to go forward.
Now, I have activated MRP Areas and created one for each Storage location in a sandbox system; I see the requirements/stocks/MRP proposals are now displayed separately. My main problem however remains: how do requirements in MRP Area ZHUB create Purchase requisitions for Stock Transport Orders (item category U) in MRP Area ZSHP?
Thanks again for any clues, Bart
Hi Bart,
You need to configure the special procurement key for Stock transfer from Plant to Sloc MRP area Plant and assign MRP area level settings in Material master.
