2 Step picking process

Hi All,
My understanding of the 2 step picking process is as follows ...Please validate if this can still be lean in terms of nos steps that need to be performed...
1. Create Wave Pick VL35 / VG01   create group / create from VL06O by selecting all the deliveries
    LT72 --Determine 2-step relevance
    LT73 --Display 2-step relevance
    LX39 --2-step picking monitor
    VL37 --- wave monitor ---Hit Picking progress for to it
*Removal part*
2. LT0E -- Creating removal TO with MvTyp 850
      One Removal TO created
      Now check TO with LT21 ....notably Dest Storage typ 200
      Now again check LX39 ---drill-down the tree structure of the Pick Section ....TO created ...not yet confirmed
                                   --- Allocation section --procedure not yet started
3. Now do LT12 ---for confirming the TO upon the physical PICK
       Then check LX39 ---Pick section is all green
Allocation Part
How to identify & assign which item in the 200 stg typ area belong to which Delivery...Plz enlighten
4. Now do LT42 for the group 20000***** --Start Multi Processing to create equal nos of TO for each deliveries in the group
    Confirm those TOs
    Have a look at LX39 again ---Allocate section will be Green
===============================================================================================
What are the two choices to carry out the second step ??
Choice 1.... You can start the multiple processing function to create transfer orders for the group and move them all at once using multiple processing to the appropriate goods issue area.
(TransOrder ® 2-step picking ® Allocation/Direct picking ® Start group)
Choice 2.... When you release the group, (TransOrder ® 2-step picking ® Allocation/Direct picking ® Release / Print) you can select Allocation or Direct separately in a dialog box to move the materials for the second step. You can also print from this option.
Can anybody explain these 2 Chioces please ?
Regards
Jamna

Report for field sammg and refnr in two step picking

Hello Experts,
I have configure two step picking which is working fine.
But my concern is when I create a group from deliveries using VL06P, an five digit number (23717) is generated. But while putting same group number in LT72 screen for analysis or doing LT0E, I am getting en error that "this group number is not existing in system.
Then I have to go to SE16 and search in table T311. Then I found that there are two group number in this table which technical name are REFNR and SAMMG. So I have to pass 23717 in SAMMG field and note down the number (17) from REFNR field and process with REFNR number.
So is there any report whether I can get the same (when I pass SAMMG number I will get REFNR number) because my business user don't have access to SE16 again it is not acceptable to business.
Or is there anyway by which I can assign same number to both SAMMG and REFNR, so that my client will refer only one number in stead of two number.
I am hereby attaching one test data. Kindly go through it and revert to me with your analysis.
Best Regards,
Raghu Nayak.

as an standard SAP you should be able to process the group number(23717) it seems there is some other setting / customization or you are following any additional steps in your system which generates the another number in Group (REFNR) field of T311 as in my case i am getting the same number in both the Group field

Two Steps Picking Process in SAP-WM

WM - Two Step Picking

Hi experts,
I have a problem with a program I'm creating.
In this program I'm doing a call transaction to LT03 for an outbound delivery.
When I do that, the message number L3 720 "2-step picking relevance will be removed since no relevant group" which is normally a Warning Message is appearing as an error message.
When I go through debugging, in the code, it also appears as a warning message, but when I execute it online it appears in red.
Does any one has an idea on that issue ?
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Remi

Hi,
Thanks for your reply.
All the materials go through a two step picking process in my business process.
So each time I create a picking process, It is put in customizing that the field "Relevant for 2 step picking" is marked by default.
The problem that I have is when I want to do a picking without the 2 step process.
It is a warning standard message, and It's working fine online but when I'm doing it through function module L_TO_CREATE_DN, instead of a warning message, the systems shows it as an error message and does not let me go through the rest of the process.
Moreover when I go through the debugging function the message is MESSAGE W720 where W is "Warning".
I don't understand why online, the system gives me a warning message and through function module, the system gives in the code a warning message that appears as an error message on screen.
I anyone has an idea it would help me.
Thanks.
Remi

Two step picking modification

Hi all,
Three simple questions on two step picking:
1) When I delete a pick TO inthe first step of two step picking process the status of pick step on the group still reamains completed and I cannot create pick TO again. How to sort out this?
2) If the pick TO is not created yet I'd like to add another TR to the group. But I didn't find a change group transactions. Once the group is created, it looks like no modification is possible but editing two step relevance on some group's item. How it is expected to do this?
3) How to set a storage type not relevant for two step picking? I've seen that only materials can be set as relevants for two step picking.
Best Regards

Hi
Let me explain how two step picking works
Within the 2-step picking process the first step can be repeated many
times because changes of the assigned deliveries may occur or the
requested quantities are not completely available the first time but
the 2nd step the actual picking is done once and marks the completion
of the process. This cannot be repeated for the reference number. If
there are individual delivery changes the TO can be created using LT03
but the multiple processing is no longer possible.
TO confirmation takes place only when the stock is completely moved.
It would not make sense to confirm the movement and then to the
allocation step. The two-step picking process is
1. Pick step (Where stock is picked from the source bin)
2. Allocation step (Where stock is allocated in the destination bin)
3. Confirmation (Where the picker confirms that the movement has been
completed)
You either carry out the first two steps seperately (2 -step picking)
or at the same time. Either way, the confirmation always takes place
last. Hope the above helps to clarify.
Regards,
Ramana

WM Replenishment and 2-step picking with storage units.

Dear Colleagues,
I am attempting to use SAP standard fixed bin replenishment and implement it as a 2-step picking process. Generally, the process goes as follows:
- Generate replenishment pick tasks
- Place the picked products onto storage units in an intermediate storage type
- Put the products away from storage units into the respective fixed bins
I have setup the necessary parameters to get standard replenishment to work. I can run LP21 and generate all TR's, and subsequently TO's. The product moves from respective reserve bins into the fixed bins based on strategies that I have setup.
The issue i am experiencing is when I try to introduce the intermediate storage type to place the product into, before it goes into the fixed bins. Additionally, the intermediate storage type needs to have SUM enabled, so that the product gets placed onto pallets. This way, the warehouse personnel will be able to track the physical product movements before it is put away.
Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Best Regards,
HK

Hi,
I'm not sure your scenario is viable in (standard) SAP.
As I understand (e.g.):
- source storage type: productA 10 pc, productB 20 pcs, productC 30 pc
- intermediate storage type: SU1 (productA 2 pc, productB 17 pcs, productC 10 pc), SU2 (productA 8 pc, productB 3 pcs, productC 20 pc)
- destination storage type: bin1: productA 2 pc, productB 17 pcs, productC 10 pc, bin2: productA 8 pc, productB 3 pcs, productC 20 pc
Please notice that SAP determines the to be removed quantities (~corresponding to SU1 & SU2 but not as SUs) when you remove the goods from the intermediate storage type ("allocation") and not when you place the goods into it.
Please also notice that automatically you cannot create storage units (palletize) with different products on it (I'm not sure this is requirement in your case or not).
Please check this link where it is explained where to carry out customizing for 2-step picking and how it works:

Hi Guys!!!!
Does anybody know some function or BAPI that confirm transfer orders with second step picking ? i found one that maybe could works fine "L_TO_CONFIRM_SU" .
I promise to Reward.

Hi Aktar,
I am looking to implement the 2 step picking process for my Production line. My warehouse is in a different building and i want to stage the materials/components for the production orders of the day in the morning.
I have activated the 2 step picking for the warehouse and also changed the material movement 850 to have a destination storage type as 200. But i am unable to complete the process.
Do you have a step by step guide which could help me do this?

2 Step pick procedure for Transfer Requirement

Hi Gurus,
Can I have 2 step picking process for TR's. For our internal WH movement I wanted to have 2 step picking to optimize physical movement of material. I cant have a delivery for doing this, therefore trying to with Transfer requirement. Is this possible.
thanks
G

You can use two-step picking to pick goods fo:
- deliveries
- production / process orders
in standrad system.
That's all.

2-step picking for production

I have a problem when setting up 2-step picking for production.
The process works like this:
Stage the materials in LP12
Create TR group via LT41
Perform first step via LT0E
Process TR via LB10 to create 2nd step TO
The issue is, that if I go to LB10 before creating the grouping, I can process the TRs directly and get a 1-step picking process. How can I avoid this? Basically LB10 should not show TR items that are relevant for 2-step picking and the 1st step has not been done yet.

Hi ASA,
Not clear if you want two step picking or two step confirmation for the TO (WM removal of material against production order)
Two step picking is used where same material in multiple deliveries required to pick in single movement by clubbing all required quantities in first (picking) TO and later this clubbed quantity gets distributed to all deliveries as per their requirement in second (distribution) TO.
Two step confirmation of TO involve where single TO quantity needs to pick and confirm in two different incidence. As like you mentioned the receiving location is far away from the sending location and stock removal and confirmation should not be done immediately.
Please confirm.

2 step picking

I have created number of Outbound delivery and also created a group number for them in tcode Vl060 via WM reference
But after the group step I am not aware of further tcode to complete process ...kind of missing the sequence of steps to complete 2 step picking
however I have given a try with tcode LX39 now here i get 2 option
a) picking
b) allocation
can you please suggest which one should i select first ....i did give a try to both of them but i get error that storage type 007 (pallet one) does not allow negative stock......i am wondering why this message comes since 200 is the storage type where the negative quant should be created ...anyways you guys can guide me thru.

Hi,Sap: IN :
Please check you have enough stock in 007 if the storage type is not allowed the negative stock.
2-step pick follow the below process:
1.The total quantities of materials needed are picked in the first step. Therefore, the removal for the individual requirements (deliveries and transfer requirements) is optimized in the warehouse. Since you can pick full storage units or larger quantities of materials from the storage bins,the total number of picks required is reduced.
2.Two-step picking makes it possible for you to optimize the stock removal by using a picking strategy that is based on quantity (strategy M).
3.Since removal and allocation are completely separate steps, you can also confirm them separately.
4.You can monitor each step of the 2-step picking process at any time in detail.

2 Step Picking in SU Managed Whse

Hi,
We are implementing SAP WM solution for AFS industry..
Currently we are planning to activate SU management in thw warehouse and I have questions related to 2 step picking (for out bound deliveries) in SU managed warehouse
Scenario is:
We would like to group multiple deliveries and have one combined pick list to minimise the travel time to bn locations multiple times. Since it wil be a SU pallet, we might even bring a whole pallet to pick the necessary qty and return the remaining qty.
Here are questions:
Do we need to implement 2 step picking for this scenario? If so.., then intermediate storage type is 200 (in which you can't activate the SU management) If I bbring the SU pallet into 200, will the SU be lost??
Can we use the Pick Point Storage type to simulate 2 step picking? In this case how can I group multiple deliveries into one group (with combined pick list)
Please advise

2-Step Picking without using Groups

Hi all,
Does anyone know if it is possible to implement a 2-step picking process that does not require creating and processing by groups?
I have a process which is not exactly 2-step picking, but the functionality supports it - except for the requirement to create groups for the TRs.
For my process, I want a one to one relationship between the removal TO and the picking to destination TO.
The reason I need two TOs is because during confirmation of the removal TO, I need to identify a specific bin where the stock will reside before the second TO picks it from there. There will always be a one to one relationship between the two transfer orders.
Any good ideas for a solution? I'm open to other suggestions.
Regards,
Mark.

The business process is as follows:
Production orders generate requirements to provide materials to production supply areas. Upon production order release we create TR in warehouse.
Stock is picked from various locations in the warehouse to a "train station" where is it loaded onto a train.
The train is then driven around the manufacturing site on a specific route and inventory is dropped off at each PSA until the train is empty.
There are several different train routes.
The requirement is for a train driver to know exactly what is on the train and to have a program which shows him what TO items are loaded and then sort those items by route/PSA sort sequence to send him on his way.
There is always a one to one relationship between the pick from warehouse inventory and the requirement at the PSA.
I was hoping to use two transfer orders - one picking to a storage type that allows you to change the destination bin manually, where the destination bin = the train carriage, which would be confirmed when the train driver loads his items. The second TO would then be triggered automatically to take the inventory from the Train carriage to the PSA.
I was then going to build a custom scanning program which would look at all the items located in the bins relevant to the train in question and find the TOs, then queue these TOs according to the route PSA sort sequence.

Config Steps for Pick process from warehouse number

Dear Gurus,
Need the config. steps for picking process with warehouse number assignments
Thanks

Hi,
You only need to assign a Warehouse number for the combination of Plant and Storage location in SPRO in assignment of organisational structures in Warehouse Mngt. If this is done, then picking will become mandatory and you can do picking either manually or automatically through LT03 or other transactions.
If this warehouse assignment is not done, then you can put the picking quantity directly in delivery and do PGI. If this assignment is done, then you will be able to do picking only through transactions like LT03, either in foreground or background. In this case, u will not be able to manually update the picking quantity in delivery.
Hope this helps.

TWo-Step Picking

Hi,
We have a requirement to perform two step pick - that is the system needs to create Two TO's
1. one for the picking material from the racks into a interim location in our case it would be Tub's - so the first part is confirmed when the material gets picked from the rack into tub.
2. Once the material is all picked the tub's are moved into Packing area -- where the material is once again verified and packed and in this process the user confirm the second leg. which moves it into the interim storage type of 916
3. After the two to's are confirmed they system should let the user perform the PGI.
I did check the documentation for Two-Step Picking on the SDN and have done the config accordingly but now the system is throuwing up error while converting the delivery into TO it says the grouping has not been done.
Not sure what am i missing - could you let me know the steps that need to followed to get this working.
Regards
Havish

Hi Sudhir,
Thanks for the reply, I did create a Group for type " K ".
The above error comes up while creating the TO (for stock Removal), but srprsingly when i run the LT72 it says the group does not exist.
I have done the following:
LE> WHM-> Activities->Transfers-> Set Up 2 Step picking --- put in the details for the WH as required
LE> WHM-> Interfaces--->Shipping ---> Two-Step picking -
put in the details for the WH as required
Created a Delivery --- VL10b
Created A group for the above delivery -
VG01
Now when I check for Group under LT72 is says the group does not exist
also when i try to create the TO for the group it throws up the as per my earlier post.
Could you guide me what is the mistake am doing
Regards
Havish

Warehouse Managment (Two-Step Picking)

Hi,
This is with reference to Two-Step picking procedure, which is not getting activated. Though we have done all customization required for TR and Deliverys as well, as referred in the documentation provided by the SAP. The settings done are as follows.
01)     Activation of Two-Step picking at WM Global level.
02)     Transfer Requirement control
03)     Transfer type control
04)     In article master, relevant for two step picking.
05)     At Storage type search level.
Now when try to initiate the process with transaction LT41 putting shipment type i.e. A (Stock Removal) system displays a message No data available for the specified criteria or if thru LT0E, system asks for a group in WM.
But when we go and try to create the single TO thru Delivery using t_code (LT03) system displays an information message, i.e. Two step picking relevancy will be lost.
Regards,
Aquil Husain

Hi Aquil
Have you set up Group processing for TR and Deliveries?
In order to manage 2-step picking you have to work with groups / collective picking
