Auto PGI for only deliveries which contain a Handling Unit

[Former Member]

It is possibe to setup automatic post goods issue when confirming the transfer order using :-

IMG menu path: Logistics - Execution - Warehouse Management - Interfaces - Shipping - Define Shipping Control - Define Shipping Control at the Movement Type Level

Mvt type 601 - setting Copy WM Quantity to option '4' -i.e. auto PGI

However this would then work when confirming transfer orders for ALL outbound deliveries.

I only require auto PGI to work for deliveries containing Handling Units.

Is this possible ? I imagined it might involve cloning mvt type 601 to another mvt type which would then be used

specifically for handling units.

Regards.

I think it would be difficult to trigger the GI of the deliveries by creating a different movement type for HUs. However, you could automate the GI of the deliveries by executing tcode VL06G in background at some frequency. To consider only the deliveries which have HUs, you could enter the Packing status = C in the variant.

Thanks for the reply, using VL06G in background is an option.

Is another possible option to use a Special Movement Indicator ?

WM mvt typ 601 could be copied to a new one e.g. 610. The interfaces table could then be setup so that Ref mvt type 601

with a Special Movement Indicator points to WM mvt type 610.

The issue I have is that I don't want to set the Special Movement Indicator on the Material Master (WM 1 view).

I know it is possible to define the Special Movement Indicator within MIGO as a default setting.

Is there something similar within the Outbound delivery ?

SPecial movement indicator can only be set in material master or during receiving the delivery.

But why would you not want to set it in the material master because anyways based o nthe item category there [particular materials should always be packed right?so lets assume they will always be used in handling units and based on the special movement indicator i nthe material master you can use the auto pgi functionality
