Hi,

Our go live was done on 14th of Sep. I am facing lot of issues for clearing TO aginst PCN. Could you please reply me point by point to resolve my query.

Migo is done first and placing of material into warehouse is second process.

Process Followed: MIGO --> TO1 > CONFIRM TO1> QA32 Usage Decision --> LU04 --> Create TO2 and confirm immediately .

Issue1) While creating TO1 --> Lots of bins are selected for Single LIne item of MIGO. i.e. One Inspection lot is kept in more then one bin. This situation System never create TO automatically when we are depressing Create TO in LU04. How can we automize this.

Issue 2) Same PO number and Same material number is received more then 10 times a day. Once we are going for clearing PCN , i.e . Crearing TO agsint PCN, it gives lot of BIn numbers. Now it is very difficuilt for Inspection person to select the bins for clearing. How can we make it easy or automatic processing for PCN TO>

Issue 3) Can we have any User Exit or Badi which can automate process of PCN TO based on origional TO i.e. TO1.

How ever we are facing above issue. What is standard practicein WM , as you (WM Guru) have already faced such situation in the past , So what is the easy way to come over ./ ease the process for clearing PCN TO.

Awaiting reply,

Regards,

Hi,

I am trying to understand your scenario & giving following suggestions.

1.Please create requirement type as inspection lot. System will clear the stock from quality with reference to this inspcetion lot.

2.when you take usage decision with 100% acceptance system can create automatic TO as well as confirm it. You need to set up background job for that.

3.If you are accepting partial qty then you have to create TO manually through LU04 transaction.

In case of partial qty. acceptance system do not create TO automatically.

Hope this help you.Let me know if any query.

Regards,

Prashant

Hello,

I do have similaire issue.

I'm setting a warehouse in a system where GR on purchase order are posted in IM first and always in stock Q. (with inspection lot). Delivery processes are not used here (no OBD nor IBD). MM is the driver!

The business rule here are:

- that the inspection lot realease can only be performed via QM transaction (QA11) - it must be transparent in the warehouse. So TO with mvt 321 must be automatique

- goods are placed in final bin before usage decision is taken

- stock placement must be with addition to stock

The flow is the following:

Purchase order > Partial GR on PO > WM (TO create automatically) Placement with stock status Q > stock placement confirmation via RF > physical QM contrôle followed by usage decision taken via QA11 >> normally stock status change should be automatic in WM

It's working perfect at the first partial GR but for the next GR followed by UD the stock stays in storage type 922 U-Zone.

The problem is that the 1st GR is on an inspection lot 1 which is reccorded in the quant. at the 2nd GR,

I know that is because when adding materials to existing stock, quant characteristics are combined and that quant information in the stock that is added to existing stock is lost and takes on the quant characteristics of the stock that is already stored in the bin. I belived this is the reason why the system is not able (using the std prg RLAUTA10 or 11) to create the TO

Is there a way to solve this problem.

Thanks ahead for your support.

Hi,

Follow this process

Step 1 - MIGO --> Material document + TR from GR is created --> Goods Posted to 902 Q

Step 2 - Do quality inspection processes --> Take usage decision --> Material document + TR from Usage Decision is created and TO created and confirmed automatically --> Stock moved from 902 Q to 922 Q (First line item in TO) and then 922 to 902 (without Q) (Second line item in TO)

Step 3 - Create TO with reference to TR from step 1 (TR from GR) - Source 902 and your PO number as Bin number and destination as you wish / configuration

Stpe 4 - Confirm TO from step 3 --> Stock moved to final storage.

To diffrenciate between TR from GR and Usage decision use the material document as refrence.

To view the usage decision material docuemnt displaye the inspection lot to get it

I hope this will help you.

The problem you have here is not a new one.

The thing with WM is that you want to know exactly where everything is and so therefore the system cannot make decisions for you. What I mean by this is for example you have 10 pallets of stock each the same material, batch number (if you have batches) and same qty.

The pallets are in bins 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10

The quantties are 100 on each pallet.

In IM you have 1000

If you change the status of 100 (one pallet) in IM you will have 900 OK and 100 status 'Q or S'

Yoiu then have the PCN and WM knows you want to change 100 and so it displays the list of bins that contain the material with the same attributes as the 100 you changed in IM

This is all of them and so you have to specify to WM which pallet in which location it is.

If you where changing all 1000 it would do it automatically.

So in summary

When there is a choice in WM it will not assume you have to tell it.

I hope that this helps
