EWM - HU type determination

[Former Member]

Hi All,

Incorrect HU type and packaging material is getting picked under PICK-HU tab during the inbound delivery process. The below is my business scenario. Please help with your inputs:

Two materials: Test1 & Test2

Two Packaging materials: Pack1 & Pack2

Two HU types: E1 & E2.

The packspec with packaging material Pack1 and HU type "E1" is created for Test1 material. The packspec with packaging material Pack2 and HU type "E2" is created for Test2 material. The conditions 0PAL, 0WHT are maintained for both the packspecs and a common 0IBD is maintained for auto packaging.

Now my inbound delivery is created for Test2 material. During the warehouse task creation, I can see the system is proposing the HU type "E2" correctly but when I create and save the warehouse task under PICK-HU tab, the system generated the HU's with HU type "E1" and packaging material "Pack1" which is incorrect.

My requirement is to have correct HU type and packaging material as per the packaging material defined in the packspec.

Please let me know if any more information is needed.

Thank you for your help.

Hi All,

Any help on this? Is there any BADI's which can be used to change the HU's packaging material type proposal before it gets displayed under the PICK-HU tab in /SCWM/PRDI. Again this is for inbound delivery.

For example: HU proposal by the system

HU001 - PACK1

HU002 - PACK1

Change expected by BADI: BADI's should read the packaging material associated to product at this stage i.e before HU proposal in Inbound delivery

HU001 - PACK1

HU001 - PACK2

Thank you

Hi Krishna,

"PICK-HU tab in /SCWM/PRDI" -Do you mean HU Tab ?

I think you do not need BADI for this requirement it can achieve in standard by maintaining Packaging Spec based on Product .

Hi Ajit,

Thank You. The issue is under PICK-HU tab for one WO only one HU type is gettiing determined. As I mentioned earlier, I have WO consolidation at activity area. Due to this I need to have one WO for multiple products for the same activity area. One WO allows only one Packaging profile and one HU type but as there are multiple products there will be multiple HU types but under PICK-HU only one HU type is determined. I need to overwrite the PICK-HU creation where I can have multiple HU types for multiple products under single WO.

Thank You

Hi Krishna,

1> BADI: /SCWM/EX_WHO_PACKING

2> Customization: Change Pack Mode to BADI in Packing Profile in WO creation rule.

3> Reference Standard Code to create Pick HU

Include: /SCWM/LWHO_MAINF13

Form: advanced_det (Complex Algorithm) or simple_det (Simple Algorithm)

Please let us know if you have further queries.

Kind Regards,

Hi Juergen,

Why don‘t you create the HUs then directly with the creation of the inbound delivery?

Can you please give more details on this?

Thank You

Hi,

how about reading this: https://help.sap.com/viewer/3d97bec9bf1649099384bb8167df3cf2/9.5.0.0/en-US/4c522352c32e35c3e10000000... ?

Hi Juergen,

Thank You. Yes, tried with autopacking but it is not ok for Business. As they would like to have some manual changes through before HU creation through palletization tab in /SCWM/PRDI. I think autopacking will not allow this change.

Thank You

With Regards

Hi,

Why don‘t you create the HUs then directly with the creation of the inbound delivery? I don‘t think that this works during the WO creation. In the moment when the HU is created for the warehouse order, the information about the product is not available.

Hi Juergen,

Yes, I am talking about the HU's generated during putaway and under pick-hu tab. The below is my requirement:

I have two products (TEST1 & TEST2) with two different packaging materials (PACK1 & PACK2) of different HU types (E1 & E2). During Inbound process, delivery is having two products (TEST1 & TEST2) both are related to only one storage type and activity area. WO is generated as per the activity area. I have only one activity area for which one WOCR and one Packing profile assigned.

Under one WO due to same activity area, expectation is to have HU's with both HU types E1 & E2 generated for TEST1 & TEST2 product.

For example: Under PICK-HU tab

HU0001 - PACK1 - E1

HU0002 - PACK2 - E2

Thank You

Krishna

OK, I am only seeing now that you talk about a pick-hu during INBOUND processing. Usually we talk about pick-HUs during PICKING (that‘s why it is called pick-HU).

Can you explain a little bit more what you are trying to achieve? You simply want that a HU get‘s created for putaway?

Hi,

you write you have "two WOCR rules for for two packaging articles". What do you mean? Two warehouse order creation rules - but according the log only one is found. Or two packaging rules? You can assign only one.

Also: how does the determination of the packaging specification looks like? And do you have the product listed under "products"? - I do not think that this influences anything here.

Or do you have the product as part of the condition record? AFAIK this is not used during the creation of the pick-hu, the product is not available as access in this moment. But I guess then you would get an error anyway.

Hi Krishna,

As per my understanding, you may require 2 WPTs ( may maintain 2 different activities ) with 2 WPT Control Indicators ( assume Test1 & Test2 ), then WPT Control Indicators should be maintain in Product master ( Test1 & Test2 ) to determine WPT, either maintain WPT to filter for creation of Warehouse Order in WOCR ( your case- you already created 2 WOCRs and also create 2 filters ) or maintain activity for determining WOCRs if you created 2 different activities for 2 WPTs. System will determine WOCRs as per WPT/activity.

Hi Juergen,

Please find attached WO log and also the PICK HU generated HU's.

There are 4 HU's which were generated. I am expecting two HU's to be of HU type E1 and two HU's to be of HU type E2.

Thanks

Krishna

Hi,

can you show the log? Makes it easier...

Hi Juergen,

I verified the WO log. I have two packing profile and two WOCR rules for for two packaging articles. The WOCR is always referring to the first packing profile sequence as per the "Define search sequence of creation rules for Activity areas".

My expectation is to pick 2nd WOCR under PICK-HU tab.

Am I missing something in config?

Thanks

Krishna

[JuergenPitz]

Hi,

activate the log for the warehouse order creation, that should give you some pointers.
