Not much to configure...

Example: Storage type 001 is for small quantities, 002 is for bulk quantities

Set fixed bin putaway strategy for storage type 001 & identify the bin in the material master, WH2 view

Configure Movement 319 - optional to create TO automatically

Set picking strategy for storage type 001 to "Large, Small quantities"

Set storage type sequence for picking strategy to look in 001 first, then 002. Do the same for the putaway strategy.

In the material master for storage type 001, WH view, enter the maximum bin qty, minimum bin qty, & replenishment qty. With this picking strategy, the TO will fail if the control qty is left blank.

Then, run TransRqmt > Create > Replen.for fixed bin (program RLLNACH1) or schedule it to run in the background.

Depending on your settings, if you do not have auto TO turned onfor mvmt 319, then you should find open transfer requirements in the warehouse activity monitor.

Good luck

Scenario:

Storage type 001, you stock small quantities of a material

Storage type 002, you stock larger quantities of a material

(Optional) you replenish material from 002 to 001.

If you want to limit the amount of material picked from 001 so as to not automatically deplete it based on a single pick, then picking strategy M (large, Small quantities) should be used for storage type 001.

When using this picking strategy, then additional fields in the WH view of each material must be maintained. These settings control how much can be picked, how much should be stocked, and how much should be replenished (In the event you want to automatically replenish 001 from 002 using program RLLNACH1

Example, you store no more than 10 boxes of zerox paper in storate type 001, and pallets of zerox paper in storage type 002. You want to limit the amount of paper that can be picked from 001 at any one time to 5 Boxes so this is maintained in the material master. When a user issues a quantity of 5 or less, the TO picks from storage type 001. If they issue more than 5, then the TO picks from storage type 002
