PutAway Confusion

[Former Member]

Here is my situation.

I have a fully HU managed Warehouse under a unique HU managed SLoc (with a non HU managed Partner Sloc)

Everything works ok.

But I have a specific requirement for PutAway and I cannot get it to work. I am looking for somebody to tell me if itrstf it can be done through config only and if so, how.

I have been testing all kind of combinations to no avail.

Requirement : I need to putaway my HUs based on the following logic

!- Storage Type placement Indicator : it works fine

- SU Type: it works fine

- NOW i want to follow this logic :

- if the same material is in a BIN in this storage type an in the proper SU type, I want to add my HU to the same BIN (add to stock)

- If the material is not in this storage type, I want to go to next empty BIN.

Here is my understanding of problem : I cannot use Open Storage as everything will go in same BIN

I have to use either ADD to STOCK or NEXT EMPTY BIN and Capacity check

Can any body tell me how to configure it so that I can achieve desired result?

Thanks

Hello,

it clearly explained in help.sap.com: [Strategy I: Addition to Existing Stock |http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_02/helpdata/en/c6/f8449d4afa11d182b90000e829fbfe/content.htm]

Andrzej, thanks for answering.

But the problem is that with all these set-up, the message is always that only one HU is allowed per BIN.

How to get the system to allow more than one HU per BIn for smae material only is my problem.

If i choose Add to Stock and Mixed : it allows more than one HU per BIN, but then it mixes material in the BIN

If I choose Add to stock without MIxed : it does not allow more than one HU per BIN. (for same material)

It looks to me like if the system needs MIXed to allow multiple HUs in one BIN and having Mixed,the system then accepts another HU even if the material is not the same.

If you can help, it will be appreciated.

It might be a simple thing, but I do not see it.

Thanks for your understanding.

hello,

just set field Indicator: mixed storage"

" B "  Several batches per bin and storage unit
       Only one material number may occupy a bin. However,
       if the material requires a batch number, more than one batch
       of this material may be stored in the bin. Each storage unit
       may also contain more than one batch of the same material.
" C "  Several batches per bin
       Only one material may occupy a bin. However, if the material
       requires a batch number, different batches of the same material
       may occupy the bin. You are not allowed to store different
       batches in a single storage unit.

Andrzej,

thanks again for taking the time to answer.

But these only work for "BULK STORAGE" as per SAP documentation.

And it is not my case. Also, I am not using Batch Management.

hello,

you are right, so you must implement your logic in user-exit for putaway strategy.
