Confirming transfer order for nested handling units (picking and shipping)

Hi
My shipping location is HU + WM, I understand we cannot "auto confirm" Transfer Orders during creation from an outbound delivery (LT03) in the case of nested HUs because the system wants to know which exact box HUs ( The TO only specifies the pallet HU...storage unit)
I have an automatic Pick HU created during TO confirmation but the system still prompts for me to enter  box HUs that need to be shipped/repacked on LT12. This makes logical sense but is slowing down our shipping process. Since we do not put HU labels on our boxes, the picker has to go into HUMO, enter the pallet HU, retrieve the box HUs and finally enter some of those on the TO confirmation screen to match the open quantity. In reality we don't really care what HUs he picks as long as he picks from the right pallet.
Is there any way to automate this? If the system can pick box HUs sequentially, randomly or create further pick HUs. Anything but doesnt ask the picker to put in the box HU numbers
OR
Is there a way to auto confirm TOs during creation
OR
Is there any way to putaway box level HUs into the warehouse at the end of the production line so that Storage Unit is the box HU number and not the pallet HU number, that way it wouldn't prompt me for box HUs during picking.
I would really appreciate your help.

This is the standard SAP for picking nested handling units.  You can do some more reading on this by accessing the SAP note 829266.
We had a similar problem with nested handling units - what we ended up doing was writing a BDC program that would take the nested handling unit and pack it back onto that HU instead of the pick HU after TO confirmation was done in the delivery. 
In order to get your TO to automatically confirm, check the configuration for the storage type that its picking from - look to see if "Storage Type requires confirmation for removal/placement" is checked. 
You can als ocheck the movement type configuration for Propose Confirmation.

  • Single Transfer Order for Multiple Handling Units

    I have been researchig the ability to create a single transfer order for multiple handling units.  My assumptions are if it can be done that:
    1) A transfer order can have a single source, so if the source document for the handling unit (delivery) is different, that means different transfer order
    2) A TO can have multiple materials (line items) with different destination bins and quantities per bin
    I looked at the configuration for TO Split, but it's not clear that this will handle my requirement.
    I also saw this http://aq33.com/material-management/Articles-005798.html and it also says that my requirement can't be meant.  I'm just checking before I tell my customer this cannot be done.

    Yes you are right, if Source document is different, you need to go with different TO.
    But you can choose the Handling unit split, while creating a TO itself. i.e., You can quantify the goods for each handling unit.

  • Create transfer order for moving storage units

    Hello guys,
    I need to create transfer order for moving storage units, the same with the transactions LT09, I found this FM 'L_TO_CREATE_MOVE_SU' but no work, somebody have an example for this FM, thanks a lot!

    Hello,
    I had the same problem today and I've fixed it by calling the FM in a different task (asychronous) .. this way the fugr/internal variables will be loaded again and you won't get this stupid error anymore. 
    CALL FUNCTION 'L_TO_CREATE_MOVE_SU' STARTING NEW TASK lv_task
    In case you need it syncronous use PERFORMING clause together with WAIT UNITL
    Hope this helps!

  • STO Stock Transfer Order with HU (Handling Units) - Error Hugeneral 319

    Hello,
    We implemented a Stock Transfer Order process with the following details:
    MM side
    - PO is type NB, supplier is F_8001;
    - In table T001W, supplier F_8001 is assigned to plant 80GP;
    - WERKS = 40TV and LGORT = 41P in all PO items;
    - In each item, the shipping tab is filled with NLCC as delivery type and customer C_4000 (this customer corresponds to plant 40TV in table T001W). The sales area is also defined as the sales area to be used in the sales order that will be created in plant 80GP;
    SD side
    - Sales order is created automatically for customer C_4000;
    - In plant 80GP we have a HU managed stloc (32P). In this stloc we have a HU with the exact contents of the sales order. This HU has X in the HU storage loc field;
    - We created the outbound delivery and chose our HU. From this moment the HU storage loc field changed to D and the HU was assigned to the delivery;
    Now for the problem:
    When we click Post Goods Issue button, we get the following error for each item:
    HUGENERAL 319 - HU item contains different data than the stock posting
    The HU contents are exactly what we need to ship, so we do not understand this error. We need this HU to be transfered to stloc 41P in plant 40TV (this stloc is also HU managed). Any clues?
    Thanks in advance,
    Joã

    Hi,
    Have you checked your HU material and material to packed both having stock in Inventory.
    Even check the table HUMSEG is correctly updated or not.
    check this table correctly Hu assignd to you material and created materil document or not.
    check for for material master clearly for both material like plant, storage location, batch etc..
    Ask your MM consultant to check all entry is correct in material master and delivery or not.

  • Problems when creating a  transfer order for moving storage units

    Hi,
    When creating a TO for moving storage units with FM FU L_TO_CREATE_MOVE_SU i got problems when the storage unit consist of 2 items. The message 'Warehouse number does not exist (new selection required)'
    is displayed. When i use the FM again after this message then the TO is created correctly.
    When i debug the FM for 2 items is see that LEIN-LGNUM is empy en when performing:
    PERFORM T300_LESEN(SAPML03T) USING LEIN-LGNUM. and the message E080 is raised.
    The perform before this is determining the lein-lgnum (PERFORM LENUM_EINL_CHECK(SAPML03T) USING I_LENUM) but this value isnt passed to the calling program the first time (memory or something????)
    Does anyone have a solution for this problem?
    Thx in advance.

  • Unable to confirm transfer order due to error message "enter a storage unit

    Hi guys:
    I am unable to confirm transfer order due to error message popping up and saying "enter a storage unit", and I tried to search it in whole thread in the forum,it was suggestion to pick up destination storage unit via ls24, but I did went to ls24 and trying to click that line(transfer order) but unable to find the storage unit, so is there another way to fix it?

    Hi Allen...
    Pls check if your Storage Type is SU Active. If yes, then system will create a storage unit according to the setting done for the storage unit management, perhaps in your case you are confirmin TO for the putaway.
    Pls confirm and revert

  • EWM : Confirmation of Warehouse task for a handling unit

    Hi experts,
    In EWM ,we have a requirement of confirming the open warehouse tasks in the backgound for a handling unit.
    Is there a function module that can update the confirmation of the Warehouse task and change the status from open to comfirmed.
    Kindly help us on this.
    Thanks in advance.
    Rashmi.

    Hi koen,
    I tried with the FM that you suggested...
    But somehow with the process type 'stock removal' gives an error...
    Is that that this FM will help to create a pick task for a particular outbound delivery--Tcode:/SCWM/TODLV_TO.
    how will this FM take the outbound delivery as an input?or it will be on the corresponding sales order number and item number as input?
    Being new EWM i require help on this..about how to go about creating the pick task for an outbound delivery which wil be equal to the warehouse request.
    Thanks in advance,
    Rashmi.

  • Confirming a Transfer Order for RF

    I am trying to find a BAPI or function module that will confirm a transfer order for use with a RF device.  We have tried using a BDC, but it is too unreliable because of the limit on the number of handling units that it can do at 1 time from the same bin.  If you have a way of confirming 30 or more handling units using transaction LT12 in a BDC, I will try that as well.
    Thanks.

    Hello ,
    you could try with BAPI_SHIPMENT_CHANGE,

  • Create Transfer Order for Consingment Pick up

    Hey, is there anyone know how to create transfer order for consignment pick up.
    I had tried it using LT06 by using GR material document but it didnt work.
    Please i need the answer rather sooner than later.
    Thanks

    Hello,
    Customer consignment pick is from customer consignment stock back to plant stock.. First of all check in MMBE whether stock exists for that material under customer consignment stock. You can check this in MMBE.
    Your stock should be maintained  in customer consignment and not in interim storage type.
    Ideally your process shall flow like this
    Sales order (KA-Consignment Pick up with item category as KAN & schedule line category: F0 & F1)>>Enter the order reason, material and quantity in sales orde & Save It>>Create Outbound delivery (VL10B/VL01N)>>Now Create Tranfer order to move the stock from consignment to warehouse stock>>Go to VL02N Choose from menu  Subsequent Functions u2013 Create Transfer Order & Enter>>Add Storage bin if required>>Confirm the transfer order (LT12)>>Do the Post Goods Reciept (VL02N)
    Now Check Consignment stock quantity with MB58 Add Material , Plant , Customer Execute

  • Automatic creation of Transfer order for Picking and putaway

    Hello All .
    I would appreciate if someone can explain the process of configuring Automatic creation of Transfer order for Picking ( outbound delivery)and putaway( inbound delivery)  .
    thanks
    Rahul

    Hi
    To have transfer orders created automatically in the background, you must first set the indicator Automatic transfer order creation for each respective movement type in the Customizing application for Warehouse Management under the path <b>Activities - Transfers - Define Movement Types</b>. The system automatically copies this indicator into the header item of the source document.
    For more information on how to set up automatic transfer order creation for transfer requirements and posting change notices, refer to the IMG for Warehouse Management under the path <b>Activities - Transfers- Set up Autom</b>. TO Creation for TR/Posting Change Notices.
    You can find more details on this link

  • MM-WM: Cancelling confirmed transfer order

    Hi Gurus,
    I have created a delivery with wrong quantity for "purchase order" then I packed material into handling units, completed 'putaway' and finally confirmed the "transfer Orders into warehouse but when I try to post goods receipt it raises an error : PU Ordered quantity exceeded by 20000 Message no. M7022.
    So I can't post it or I can't reverse delivery as it is not posted. Also I don't know how to reverse confirmed transfer order. Can any one explain me how to do it?
    Thanks
    Shiv

    Hi,
    You can cancel the confirm transfer order using LT0G, once you cancel it, you can cancel your delivery, and create a fresh delivery with the right quantity....
    Reward, if helpful.....

  • Change in Transfer Order for Storage Type & bin

    Hi,
    I want to change destination bin change during TO Creation. Steps are given below.
    a) SPRO : Storage type setting: Two options are t there in stock placement section
                     Storage bin cannot be changed during confirmation
    1     Storage bin can be changed during confirmation
    I set it to 1.
    b) LT06 : TO Created.
    c) LT12: TO Confirmation: TO lines are coming grayed out. We can not change Destination storage bin, storage type , and section.
    Could you please advice me how to change TO Bins change during confirmation.
    Clients requirement: System will pick bin automatically. Print will be taken for this. Once placement is done & some of material are not kept as per TO Bin number. its a different bin,. Now User want to change bin number during TO Confirmation.
    Thanks ,
    Gupta

    Hi Gupta,
    In WM customizing - master data - storage type - in the detail data of     
    the relevant destination storage type you set the flag                     
    'Dst bin ch. during confirm.' from space to 1. Then the destination        
    storage bin "in general" can be changed at confirmation time.                                                                               
    Additionally you need to setup for the movement types that you are using   
    that you work with the new confirmation list, see detail of the movement   
    types, box screen control. (Try changing this setting to '1').                                                                               
    Please also read in the R/3 library - logistics - logistics execution -    
    warehouse management - warehouse movements - transfer orders - transfer    
    order confirmation - confirming transfer orders.                                                                               
    Here it is described when the destination bin can't be changed even        
    with the correct customizing settings.                                                                               
    If you set the indicator for Destination bin change during confirmation    
    for the desired storage type in Customizing for Warehouse Management       
    under Logistics Execution -> Warehouse Management -> Master Data ->        
    Define Storage Type, you will be able to change the destination bin when   
    confirming a transfer order if, for example, the destination bin           
    proposed by the system is damaged.                                                                               
    NO destination bin can be entered during confirmation for:                                                                               
    - dynamic coordinates                                                     
    - return items                                                            
    - Lean WM (if the destination bin is defined in the movement type)        
    - posting change TOs                                                      
    - inventory based on putaway                                              
    - additions to existing stock in storage units                            
    - transaction Confirm single item                                         
    Please check if your TO is related to one of these cases !!!
