Number of WMS

How many WMs are needed per plant on a regular basis (24 7 production). Are there any limitations due to custom?

Not really, You can manage with just one warehouse for one plant subject to the requirment.

Customized LPN Number Generation in WMS

How to Customize the LPN Generation Number in WMS for all available Business Flow.
Can any one please help me to resolve the Problem.

Hi Debraj,
You can generate a sequential number when ever user saves the record using function module 'NUMBER_GET_NEXT'.
Firstly, Go to transaction SNRO and create a new Number range object. Here you can define the range of the numbers. say 'WXYZ'.
Pass this to the import parameter object of the function module.
CALL FUNCTION 'NUMBER_GET_NEXT'
    EXPORTING
      nr_range_nr             = '01'
      object                  = 'WXYZ'
    IMPORTING
      number                  = l_next_number
    EXCEPTIONS
      interval_not_found      = 1
      number_range_not_intern = 2
      object_not_found        = 3
      quantity_is_0           = 4
      quantity_is_not_1       = 5
      interval_overflow       = 6
      buffer_overflow         = 7
      OTHERS                  = 8.
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
Do Nothing
ENDIF.
The export parameter 'number' gives us the next sequential number.
So when you click on save. Call this function module and get the next number and save it.
Hope this helps.
Do let me know in case you need any more details.

Warehouse number from "Decentralized WMS" to "Centralized"

Hi all
We have implemented a warehouse number with Decentralized WMS.
ERP and WM are SAP systems.
Now, weu2019d like to integrate WM into the same ERP SAP system (convert a warehouse number from "Decentralized WMS" to "Centralized").
So, what shall we do?
Can we maintain the same warehouse number and do the customizing on it (deactivate Decentralized WMS and so on)? Or we must define a new one?
In both cases, (maintain the same warehouse number or define a new one) how can we transfer WM stock from decentralized to centralized?
Any suggest?
Thanks a lot
Michele

Hi Funky Tech.
Thank you for your answer, but my question is another.
We have already implemented a warehouse number as decentralized WMS.
Now we want to integrate it into ERP (centralized WMS).
So the questions are:
Can we maintain the same warehouse number and do the customizing on it (deactivate Decentralized WMS and so on)? Or we must define a new one?
In both cases, (maintain the same warehouse number or define a new one) how can we transfer WM stock from decentralized to centralized?
Thanks

Sap wms

hi
could anybody explain me the sap wm physical inventory reports for showing the difference in qty instead of difference in percentage is there any reports pl

Hi
I will try to break it down for you.
Ist. the count is against bins so wnem the count has been completed you must clear your differences in WM with LI20 to unblock the bins and allow you to continue operating.
2nd. If yo have increased the stock in the bin you will have a negative in 999 and if you have 'lost' some stock there will be a positive in 999.
There will be a time lapse between clearing in WM and IM I accept that so if you subsequently find your stock then simply create a manual TO using LT01 and ensure that your source st type is 999 and then the stock will move back to the bin and when you clear the differences in IM this stock will no longer be there so it will not be written off.
The other option is to clear your differences and if you subsequently find some stock then simply create a new count for that bin only and add the stock you have found and bring it back.
There are some things to consider when deciding how long you wait before clearing differences in IM
Most importantly is that the inventory is WRONG and IM does not know and all sales, production etc is done in IM so it needs to be correct as soon as possible. Also for MRP purposes which is run at sloc level in IM you will not order stock you need and you may order stock you do not if the inventory is wrong. The beauty of WM Continuous inventory is you can count as many or as few bins as you want when you want as often as you want.
I hope that this helps you.
NB I have cut and pasted the doc below but the screen prints are missing.
I have seen people leave their e-mail details below but hopefully this will help
Continuous Inventory Process
Overview.
We need to be able to count the stock within the warehouse for different reasons,
1. To be able to check that the stocks are maintaining an accurate level
2. To satisfy any outside audit requirements.
The main method to do this within the WMS system is u2018Continuous Inventoryu2019
This process counts the bins as opposed to specific materials; this means that as you complete a count of the entire warehouse you will automatically count all materials.
It also means that if there is any areas that are causing concern in terms of stock accuracy then you can revisit them as many times as required to investigate the issues.
Because this process is real time counts can be carried out at any time.
The following process explains how to carry out a continuous stock take.
Create the count document.
Prior to counting you need to ensure that there are no outstanding actions against the bins that you wish to count such as:-
u2022 Outstanding TOu2019s the system will ignore any bins that have outstanding TOu2019 against them.
u2022 Outstanding Posting change notices, if you are in the middle of status changes to materials these need to be completed.
u2022
The Transaction for this is LX16
On the initial screen you enter the following details.
Warehouse u2013 GA0
St Type - In this case 001 which is the racking that contains large and medium parts.
St Bins u2013 In these fields which are from and to you can count as few or as many bins as you want.
In this case I have selected 4 bins in the racking area.
The date will default in automatically
In the box that says u2018Only bins not yet countedu2019 remove the tick by clicking in the box. This is because SAP WM expects you to count every bin in the warehouse before you recount a bin that as already been counted. Removing this tick will allow you to count the same bin over and over again if required.
Execute
This screen shows the 4 bins that you specified on the previous screen and automatically selects them all because as you specified them it assumes that you want to count them. If you do not want to count them you can remove any or all of the ticks by clicking on to them.
It also tells you how many u2018Quantsu2019 are in the bins, in this case just one in each but if you had two materials in the same bin this would show 2.
You now have to decide if you want to carry out the count now or later.
To carry out a count the count must be u2018activatedu2019 but you can just save this and you will be given a document number which can be activated later. This allows you to plan ahead for the counts you want to do and this will not have any effect on the stock.
If you want to carry out the count then you select the u2018activateu2019 icon
This will create the count document and you will see the doc number at the foot of the screen.
The activation of the count does a number of things.
Firstly it places an X in the IA column; this means u2018Inventory Activeu2019 which is that there is an outstanding count that has not been completed.
It also u2018Blocksu2019 the bins that are being counted so that no movements can take place in or out of those bins until the count is completed.
Print the count document.
Transaction LI04
This transaction is where you print off the count document.
Ensure that the inventory record is the correct doc number and select u2018print immediatelyu2019 and press enter.
This is what the count doc looks like. This can then be handed to the operator that will carry out the count and they go to the specified bins and enter the count in to the space allowed.
Once this is done the count needs to be entered in to the system.
Entering the count.
Transaction LI11N
Ensure that you have the correct doc number and press enter.
The counted quantity can now be added in the field specified.
If the bin is empty then you enter 0 and tick the Z field to confirm that this is zero.
In this example I have entered one zero and two of the others are a loss and a gain.
Once you have entered the results press enter.
This is the line that was zero and the system is telling you that as far as it is concerned there should be something in the bin if you are happy that zero is what you wanted to enter then press enter to continue.
The system then moves on to the next count it does not agree with.
This is telling you that the system thinks that this count represents a loss compared to the book value which is the qty that SAP thinks it has. For the material that is over you will get a similar message but with a plus instead of a minus. Press enter each time to progress through the messages and then save.
The count is mow added.
You now have the option to carry out a recount.
Recount Transaction LI14
Ensure that you have the correct count doc number that you wish to recount and press enter.
SAP assumes that you wish to recount all lines that where not a match to SAP and so defaults in the tick. You can accept this or de allocate the ticks for lines you do not wish to recount. Once you have decided click on u2018start recountu2019
This will become count 2 > recount version 01.
To enter the count results the transaction is the same LI11N.
Ensure that you have the correct count number and make sure that you type in the recount version number and press enter and enter the counts as before. If the counts are the same as last time you will get the same warning again and press enter to go through them and save the count at the end.
We now need to clear the differences to put the stock right.
We have to do this in two transactions one for WM and one for IM.
Firstly WM
This is the stock situation for the 4 bins before we start to clear the differences.
WM Transaction LI20
Ensure that you have the correct count number and press enter
SAP will assume that you only want to clear the counts that are 100% correct so you need to select all of the lines.
Click on clear.
This will do three things.
1. It will make the bins that you counted correct to what count you entered
2. It will remove the u2018Xu2019 out of the IA field which will unblock the bins and allow you to now locate or pick stock from these bins and
3. It will move the differences in to Interim st type 999 with the st bin being the count doc number.
These are shown below.
The bin 01-01-01 has now disappeared; this is because we said there was zero stock in there.
Because in WM you are counting bins what you are actually saying when you count is that this is the qty in these bins. What you are not saying at this stage is that the stock is lost, just that they are not in these particular bins.
What WM does with this information is to say OK if there is less in the bin that I thought I will accept what you say and I will move the u2018differenceu2019 in to 999 and make the bin correct, however if there is more in the bin than I thought I will accept what you say but I need to find the extra stock from somewhere and so I will take it from the difference bin in 999 and as there is not any stock in the difference bin then I will create a minus as above.
In real terms the qty of stock as not changed as the changes in the bins are balanced by the differences in 999 and therefore we now have to clear the differences in IM which will clear 999.
Clear differences in IM Transaction LI21
St Type 999 is the ONLY st type from where you can clear differences.
Ensure that you have the warehouse number and st type 999 and execute.
In this transaction SAP assumes that you want to clear everything out of 999 and so defaults a tick in to all lines. The storage bin is the count doc number and therefore if you only want to clear count number 2 then you need to deselect the ticks from the other lines. Click on clear
This transaction will clear the differences out of 999 and adjust the stock in IM and produce accounting documents for the gains and losses
The box above shows the number of the accounting document that has been created and at the bottom of the screen you will see a message as below.
If there are error you go back to transaction LI20 and se which ones did not clear and investigate why.
In Transaction MB51 in IM you will see the following entries
All stock take movement types begin with 7 and no other movement types begin with 7.
711 is a stock loss and therefore shows as a GI which is a Goods Issue and 712 is a gain and therefore is a GR which is Goods Receipt.
The document number is the one that you created when clearing the differences.
This completes the process.
Thanks and regrds...

Which table contains the task related information in WMS

Hi I have a requirement in which I need to have taskID, employee wms id.. Please help me know the main table which contains tasks related information in WMS.
Thanks

Thanks for your reply,,
I came to know that task has status like unreleased, pending, queued, dispatched, active, loaded and completed.
What is the table name, If their is a specific table that can hold the status of all the status, if not what are all tables that are getting effected in this process.
for example:
order number has status and it is maintained in or_order_headers and oe_order_lines. as the process changes wsh_deliveries, wsh_delivery_details, wsh_delivery_assignments,... etc will get effected.
The similar way, in our case what is the main derived table like(order_headers, lines) and if their is a process what will be the underlined tables which are getting effected.
Thanks,

Want to pick perticular serial / Lot number from MSCA

Want to pick perticular serial / Lot number from MSCA for WMS enable organization. The problem, which I am facing, from MSCA it is automatic taking the first serial number. And when, I am running pick release with Auto Allocate as No , the corresponding WMS task is not getting created.
Any help will be appreciated.

I have a similar problem. I am trying update the lot for an existing serial number and it doesnt work. If you set the lot for a NEW serial number then it does work. But if that serial number ever existed in OSRI it doesn't seem to work

Decentralize WMS

Der all,
I have a question with regards to decentralize warehouse. Presently we have two sides which are setup as decentralize WMS. In another side A is using a SAP system (a third party logistic provider using their own SAP system), and side b is using a non-SAP system (also a 3rd party logistic provide but not using SAP).
Our SAP system has been setup with two Warehouse Numbers for these two sides.
Question:
1 - When checking in the system, I notice there is no TR nor TO document created for GR and GI activity, may I know why? is it these two WS, since setup as decentralize WMS, does not have TR nor TO document setup in place, is this standard SAP that no TR TO for decentralize WS?
2 - Further, there is no linkage between WS and Storage type setup in the SPRO, is this part of the requirement for setup a decentralize WMS?
3 - There is no "Check" on the "R/2 link Active" checkbox on the Warehouse definition in the SPRO ==> Logistic Execution ==> Warehouse Mgmt ==> Define Control Param for Warehouse Number. I though this field is require for setup a decentralize warehouse, why it is not ticked?
Thanks
Tuff

Dear all,
does anyone know my questions?

WMS Problem with 2 step picking

Hello Expert,
In WMS I activate the 2 step picking. I have created a group of delivery and make a trasfer order with the total quantity of the deliveries. I create the trasfer order on 2 picking phase and I trasfer the material on storage type 200 with movement type 850. I confirm the trasfer order and I see the stock on storage type 200. The problem is that i cannot create the individual trasfer order related each single delivery. I tried with VL37 wave pick monitor but I get no output from the program. Any idea on where is my mistake?
Thanks
Josy

Hi Josy
Sorry I can not answer your question since I met problem when creating TO for the group. Can you tell me which t-code you used to create group? I created the group via VL06P, from the menu - subsequent function - group and then create.(group type K). After that I go to LT0E for the first picking. But when I enter the group number, system notice me the group number is not exist in table T311. Do you know why?
thanks a lot.

Is FMS Unicast or Multicast? Pro/Con FMS vs WMS

Hello,
I have two questions:
Is FMS Unicast or Multicast?
What are the pros/cons with FMS vs WMS?
The reason for my questions is that my company has a Flash
Streaming Server and a Windows Media server and we would like
streaming video of conferences displayed on our Intranet. I have
setup the streaming service and am using flash media encoder.
However, we also stream other content to a windows media player and
the benefits of that is the ability to Multicast. I would like to
use FMS because I can customize the experience but I know I will
have to justify against a multicasting system
Thank you for your time

I had no idead that our 1000/40/ Unlimited would not be

I am looking at the adobe pricing here
http://www.adobe.com/products/flashmediaserver/productinfo/pricing/
and I have a question regarding your suggestion of the
150/unlimited. I was under the impression that concurrent meant
simultaneous and how could I meet my 800 user needs with only 150
concurrent connections?
The FMS pro license has 3 profiles. You can choose one
profile per server, and the profile you select applies to all
licenses installed on that server (you can stack up to 10 licenses
on a single server).
Assuming you configure the server with the 150/unlimited
profile, you can accomodate 150 users simultaneously on a single
license, and they can each consume as much bandwidth as they want
(limited by the physical server and the internet pipe/LAN
bandwidth, of course). If you were to buy two licenses and put them
on the same server, you could have 300 users with no bandwidth
limits, 450 users with 3 licenses, and so on.
In the case of the 40/1000 license profile, each license on
the server will give you 1000 connections, or 40mpbs of throughput.
As soon as either one of those limits is reached, the server will
reject new connections until both the number of connections and the
bandwidth usage are below license limits. If you were to install 2
licenses under the 40/1000 profile, you can have 2000 concurrent
users, or 80mpbs of bandwidth, whichever comes first.
So, assuming you want to serve good quality video to 800
users simultaneously, you'll need 6 licenses... which will run you
somewhere on the order of $27,000

Field for Picking Request number

Hi,
Are there any fields which captures the Picking request number and the user who is picking???, we are doing a delivery with no WMS...
Appreciate the help here.
Deepak

Dear Experts,
After delivery a picker will pick the material and put it for delivery but how do we capture the picker information if WM is not installed, the other question is - If such a functionality exist in standard SAP or not????
Thanks

WMS Min Max replenishment - Auto allocate and create wms task

We using Oracle WMS and want to implement Min Max planning for replenishing from bulk to pick. The Min max report creates the move order but its not allocated and we need to run the Move Order Pick Slip report to create the allocation and wms task. Is there no other way of doing this as we need to pass the move order number when running Move Order Pick Slip report and would like to automate the process.

Hi,
As you have mentioned :
Replenishment qty to 10
and the max bin qty is 40
min bin qty is 10
available stock is 40
System will still not generate any TR since your available qty is not less than min bin qty.
Reduce your available bin qty less than 10 then only it will generate TR.
Or keep min qty as 100 , Max qty as 1000 and replenishment qty as 100 and then check.
Please read the Program documentation for LP21 ( Blue icon on lp21 input screen) for calculation .
Minimum stock     =   10
Maximum stock     = 100
Replenishment qty =   40
Storage bin stock =    5
Since the storage bin stock has fallen below the minimum stock level defined in the material master, the system calculates a quantity to be supplied to this storage bin. The system attempts to increase the total quantity in the bin (5) by multiplying the replenishment quantity (40) as many times as possible to match the maximum quantity defined for the bin (100) without exceeding it. For the supply quantity, the system calculates 80 pieces (5 + 2 x 40 = 85 < 100).

Set storage unit number (SU)

Dear all,
I have a business scenario that barcode label is printed before goods receipt from production. The phyiscal cartons from production will be placed onto the pallet. Once the pallet label is full, the barcode code label is printed and scanned for confirmation of process order, and then following by goods receipt.
Since, I am using WM in particular Decentralized WMS, the system will generated TO automatically upon GR. As you know, storage unit number will be generated during TO creation. As we want to capture the barcode pallet label in the SAP system as our SU number. I wonder there is any user exits or other things that allow for setting the SU number from the barcode label number.
Ideas?
Thanks in advance.
Cheers.

Hi,
May I know if the question still exists or not? If so, please reply it. Thanks a lot.

Synchronize HU number with SU number

I'm trying to figure out the appropriate way to sync the HU number with the SU number. When I post HU managed stock into the warehouse, I want the SU number to match the HU number.
The notes say "If HUM is active in your system (which it is), all stocks within the WMS are managed in storage units. These storage units are created with the same number as the handling unit. Numbers are assigned in this case using the handling units and not using storage unit management. Therefore, in this case you do not need to set up number assignment for storage unit management. SAP recommends only activating length conversion for storage unit numbers.
If I understand this correctly, if I do not define and assign a storage unit number range, this will happen automatically? Currently, I have an SU number range defined and all SUs are being posted into the warehouse using the next available number in this SU number range.
Your help is greatly appreciated!

Hi,
As to synchronize HU number with SU number, If you use handling unit management in Warehouse Management, you must activate storage unit management for all storage types in which you want to
store handling units. During the putaway, the system creates a storage unit for each handling unit of the transfer orders reference document. This storage unit has the same identification number as its "handling unit sister". When there are nested handling units, the storage unit corresponds to the outer-most handling unit. When partial quantities are picked from such multi-level handling units, the system displays a screen asking you for the lower-level handling unit for the pick or complete stock pick.
The numbering of the storage units is controlled by the number assignment parameters that are set for the handling units during handling unit management and not by the number range(s) of Storage Unit Management. You must therefore activate the storage unit number length conversion in Storage Unit Management Customizing. You must use the same number of signs that is used in the identification numbers for the handling units. The setting applies to all clients (menu path in the Implementation Guide: Logistics Execution u2192 Warehouse Management u2192 Storage Units u2192 Master Data u2192 Define Number Ranges u2192 Conversion exit for storage unit number).
Good luck

WMS - pick and sort

Hi,
I am new to Oracle WMS. Needed some pointers on how can I model a picking flow path as below
1. Pallets in pallet storage have multiple standard casepack cartons. This area is accessible only in full pallets and cannot be handled in cases.
2. Sales orders are in such quantities that multiple orders can be fulfilled from a single pallet. Assumption: Each sales order is for different customer, hence different delivery.
3. Need to be able to create one pick task from pallet storage for picking a pallet to an intermediate location
4. From this intermediate location need separate tasks for moving required number of cases from this pallet to final staging location.
I have worked on other WMS, where this scenario can be easiliy modelled. I am confident that even in Oracle WMS, there should be some way out using the outbound operation plan and consolidation options. However, specific pointers would be highly appreciated.
Regards,
FMS
