About Rounding Quantity into Packing Instructions

Hi Experts,

I want to pack a Material 123456 into a Box, and then pack all Boxes on a Pallet with a cover.

On one Pallet, I have 4 levels with 6 Boxes on each level, 1 Box contain 2 Materials 123456.

I want to put the cover only if I have 6, 12, 18 or 24 Boxes.

So, I defined following Pack.Instructions:

PI Nr 0001

10 P Box 999999 Qty 1

20 M Material 123456 Qty 2 Minimum Qty 0 Rounding Qty 0

PI Nr 0002

10 P Pallet 800008 Qty 1

20 P Cover 800000 Qty 1

30 I PI 0001 Qty 24 Minimum Qty 0 Rounding Qty 6

When I create the HU into HU02, for 6 pieces (partial qty 2) of Materials 123456, I've got following error:

"Cannot pack, as packing instruction rounding quantity violated"

Any idea?

Regards,

David

Hello,

The error is coming from the check profile that is present in your configuration which could be currently set to a "1" - Packing instruction violated.

You can check this / change these parameters in Log. - General -- >HU Management -->Automatic packing --> packing Instruction master data -- >Define check profile for packing status .

Here you should be able to see and select the check profile and the values that are assigned to various parameters that will be checked when your packing instructions are created and used.

Per SAP Help :

Packing status for "rounding quantity violated"

Specifies the status given to an HU proposal if the rounding quantity is violated for one or more items.

Use

The status determines, for example, whether this variance from the packing instruction makes the HU faulty, or whether it can be tolerated. You cannot create a handling unit from an HU proposal with packing status "Packing instruction violated".

Also:

The system checks that the rounding quantity is respected when it determines the packing status. In your packing status check profile, you enter whether a handling unit can be created despite falling short of the rounding quantity or not.

Examples

If you want to pack a pallet with four boxes per layer, enter four as rounding quantity and specify in the packing status check profile that handling units that fall short of the rounding quantity are faulty. If there are not enough boxes to fill up a layer, the other boxes then remain unpacked.

Hope this helps.
