Hi Experts,
We are having the requirement as below.
i) First putaway of part should happen to Fixed bin of storage type XXX.
ii) If fixed bin is full then it should go to any level of XXX as per assigned bin type.
As per existing master data Material master is defined at warehouse level not at storage type level. For XXX storage type putaway strategy used is P & removal strategy used is F.
Kindly suggest me how to proceed for this requirement.
Hi Maria,
Is the storage type XXX used as a fixed bin area every time for all materials? Is it kind of a picking area? If yes, then I will suggest you to define a second storage type (YYY) for the "other levels". Then basically activate a suitable capacity method for XXX and activate SUT check and a suitable strategy for YYY. Of course you should set up the storage type determination other relavant customizing.
Or using your given setup, you can do it with a user-exit.
If you can give more details about your scenario, I may give a more detailed solution.
regards,
Osman N. Korca

Thank you for reply,
XXX is not a fixed bin area for all materials. For particular some materials required a fixed bin for putaway. If this is full then it has to go for other storage types & bins.
Already XXX is using as a put away strategy P. My question is without defining new storage type is it possible.
Waiting for your reply.

Hi Maria,
It is not possivble to give the exact specification here without doing a proper analysis, but simply;
- Usage of this user is not triggered from the storage type search, but you should check the "user-exit active" checkbox in the stock placement window of storage type customising.
- It is not necessary to define the materials at storage type level but as you want to use fixed bins, you should tell the system about the fixed bins. I recommend you to define the materials at storage type level (only maintain the fixed bin in storage type XXX). Alternatively you may use a Z-table.
- You should develop an algorithm and implement this algorithm in the user-exit. A simple algorithm could be: 1- Find the fixed bin of the material. 2- Check the capacity of the bin. 3- If the capacity is available, then return this bin, otherwise search for another bin with available capacity at another level.
The documentation on the system for the user-exit MWMTO003 is fairly good. Please refer to the documentation.

Osman
