Cross Docking with LE-WM - or - Reactivating Back Orders upon Goods Receipt

I have been reviewing the documentation for Opportunistic and Planned Cross Docking in LE-WM. The requirement is to release Back Orders upon receipt of a shipment to avoid putting them away and picking them right away from the bin. We want to release the Back Orders for picking in the GR area at the time of receipt.
So far it appears that Opportunistic Cross Docking depends on a Transfer Order already existing. The system then cancels the existing TO and replaces it with a TO to pick from the receipt Storage Type.
Planned Cross Docking appears to require an existing Outbound Delivery to the expected Inbound Delivery.
In the case of a Back Order, no Outbound Delivery or Transfer Order exist since there is no stock to release until the goods are received.
Is there a way to release Back Orders to be picked directly from Goods Receipt?
Thanks;
Jim

The problem is that all the information I found so far about it is over the process of external goods coming and sending they out without the need of storing in the warehouse. They go directly to the picking area (one step) or in two step process  going first from 902 (Good receive from external) to Cross docking Sorage type.and another movement  from Cross Docking Storage type to 916 Good issue Storage type.
I need to know if it is possible to implement a solution of Cross Docking for certain number of products having a factory and a warehouse. If so, would you give me a brief process flow?.
Thank You very much.
Al

  • Cross Docking with GATP

    I am considering ECC WM and / or EWM.  One of my requirements is an opportunistic cross dock that will assign goods at GR to an open sales order line item.  EWM opportunistic CD is synonomous with PFGR.  Does ECC WM provide any benefits over EWM in terms of cross docking with GATP?
    Many thanks.
    Michael

    Have you received any feedback from SAP or from third party consultants that the WM to EWM connection is feasilble? The benefits of EWM to GATP vs. ECC WM to GATP are very big, however , I am not even sure that WM to GATP is a real option. That is why I ask.

  • Cross-docking with external WM system

    Hello Gurus,
    We are trying to implement cross docking but we donu2019t have wm on the SAP ERP. We would like to know if this is possible. And this is possible, how can we manage this scenario for example: A delivery from PLANT A to a client that uses PLANT B as cross-docking plant. When the shipment leaves PLANT A what movement we need to do. When the materials of the delivery are received on PLANT B what movement should we do. When the shipment leaves PLANT B we make the goods issue?
    Is this correct? If this is correct you have to change the plant of the sales order and delivery from PLANT A to PLANT B.

  • Cross-Dock: No inbound docs have been selected for planning

    Hi everybody here,
    I am testing cross-docking function on our DEV environment. I set the warehouse 001 as one-step crossdocking and no opportunistic cross-docking allowed, not consider FIFO. The time ref. is delivery date & time, time window is set to 72H, release time is 2H and latest relase time is 1H.
    Then I set movement type 501 and 201 as cross-docking relevancy.
    I created 2 TRs with movement 501 and 201 with same material and same quantities. The 501 TR's planning time is 12:00, Aug 17 and The 201 TR is 23:00 Aug 17. However, when i run LXDCK to plan a cross docking with these 2 TRs, system prompts an error message "No inbound docs have been selected for planning".
    If you guys have implementation experience of cross-docking, please give me some advice, many thanks!

  • Transporttaion Cross Docking between EWM and ECC across company codes

    Seceanrio is as follows:
    We have an EWM managed site in GB, and an IM managed site in IE.
    We would like to use the transportation cross docking solution from within Service Parts Management to transfer goods from GB to IE, (ECC > EWM > ECC) across company codes.
    Is this possible within the standard SAP solution?
    Thanks in advance,
    Craig Bramhald

    Hi Hari
    Inter Company Purchase scenario works when the same material exists in both the company codes... I dont know how SAP would manage this in the case of Assets, when the Same Asset No is not existent in the other Co Code...
    However, Refer 1523976  PurchaseOrderERPRequest_In_V1:Asset account assignment fails
    This applies to EhP4 / EhP5 - But I dont know if you are using the enterprise service PurchaseOrderERPRequest_In_V1 ....
    If not, better create an OSS message to SAP and check with them mentioning the notes that you have mentioned in your message

  • WM cross docking and yard management

    Dear Gurus,
                        Any body here could explain me step by step configaration of WM--Cross docking and Yard Management.
    Any help will be rewarded.
    Regards,
    SAP.

    Hi,
    hum, this is a bit huge to reply.
    Yard is working as cross-docking with a single WM.
    Cross-dock needs :
    A WM configured
    WM movement types to be dedicated
    More tricky, it needs to have the Goods receipt sequence to be modified. The goods receipt must be setup to be done before the TO gets created
    Yard is more straight forward.
    Yard site related to WM
    Define the Yard map: The doors, parking spaces... (nota: Maintain the yard doors from the WM customizing. It is a WM location before all.)
    some vehicles (Material group, ...)
    Some master data. The trucks, the trailers...
    To keep in mind:
    a truck is an handling unit.
    The relation between a delivery and a truck is done with handling units.
    The relation between CD and Yard: At CD Decision time, a Yard scheduling activity will be created. Therefore a WM door will booked.
    Hope this provides a starting point to you

  • Back order item list from the STO

    Well I tried with ME2N, VL06O, VL10D, But did not get the expected result......

    Thanks in Advance

    Did you try V_V2 and checking the box Process stock transfer docs? You can read the documentation pertaining to this t.code by clicking the i button provided on the top. You can also read OSS Note 821739 - FAQ : Rescheduling Transaction (V_V2) in Purchasing.
    If you want to check for few materials, then MD04 itself shows the back order STO.

  • To fill in the material number with item category u201CBu201D for Framework Order.

    The use of framework orders (also referred to as blanket purchase orders)  enables you to procure a variety of materials or services from a vendor up to a predefined maximum value (the value limit).
    Instead of a specific delivery date, you specify a validity period for the order.
    Goods receipts or the entry and acceptance of services performed are not necessary in the case of a framework PO and limit items.
    The invoices are posted directly with reference to the purchase order, provided that the specified value limit is not exceeded. When the value limit of the PO is reached, or the validity period is exceeded, the system issues a warning message. It is possible to book the invoices, but these are blocked for payment.
    During the phase of service performance, the cumulative u201Cactual" values (for the services actually performed) are continually updated in the underlying purchase. This enables you to monitor the progress of a procurement project on an ongoing basis. By comparing the "actual" value with the total value, you can always obtain an overview of the degree to which a budget for unplanned services or materials has been exhausted (i.e. see whether predefined limits have been reached or nearly reached).
    So with the Framework Order type (FO) and item category u201CBu201D you get the error that it is not allowed to fill in the material number with item category u201CBu201D.
    Please suggest me the possible solution to fill in the material number with item category u201CBu201D for Framework Order.
    Best Regards,
    Harisha

    The Framework order type is specialy defined for lesser value procurements (ex: stationeries, cleaning services ....) which are all not worthy to create Material Master at all.
    If you are very sure to fill the Material number, then proceed with some other document type.
    In what circumstances you want to put material number in FO order?

  • Non valuated Goods Receipt for materials with multiple account assignments

    We have been using multiple a/c assignments for services on purchase orders for sometime with no issues.  Recently we used a multiple a/c assignment distribution for a material P/O.  this didn't work the same and the Goods Receipt was set as non valuated.
    This leaves the cost showing as a commitment and we do not get any actual costs charged at the GR point until we get and post the invoice.  This only happens with multiple account assignments, all material P/O goods receipts for single assignments get valuated.
    Were not sure why this happens, and want it treated the same.  Is there any way we can get these valuated the same way single assignment materials or multi assignment services are.
    The non valuated GR flag is getting set automatically, but we can't see where this is coming from for this scenario, so were a bit stuck.
    Any advice/direction would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks
    Graham

    Hi Deshamol, No the materials are all valuated, as mentioned, they all work fine when used as single a/c assignment.
    Anupam, Your answer doesn't make sense to me, this is 1 line on the P/O, therefore 1 material.  It can't be both valuated and none valuated for each a/c assignment. 
    I have read in a note there there is a business function that you can apply to get this working, has anybody tried it?
    Thanks

  • Goods receipt with mvt 103 and storage location

    Dear All,
    I have a requirement. I create a PO and make the GR with mvt 103. I have to use 103 because no accounting document shall be created at the time of goods receipt. Then i will approve it with mvt 105.
    Now, my client wants to see the storage location info at the time of GR with 103. But i cannot enter storage location if i use 103. Is there another mvt type that i can use storage location but no accounting document created ? I mean i want to enter storage location when i use 103. is it possible or any other mvt  types ?
    Thanks in advance..
    Best regards,

    SAP docu explains:
    To post all items of a purchase order into goods receipt blocked stock, proceed as described in the section Entering a Goods Receipt for a Purchase Order, but use movement type PO to blocked stock ( 103 ) instead of movement type PO to warehouse (101).
    All of the order items are posted into goods receipt blocked stock with movement type 103.
    Since the material is not to be added to the inventory yet, do not enter a storage location.
    Apart from these differences, you can follow the procedure described in the section Enter Goods Receipt for Purchase Order.
    regards,

  • Opportunistic Cross Docking Warehouse Task with status "B" - Waiting -

    Hi All,
    Does anyone have any experience with Opportunistic Cross Docking using SAP EWM 7.1?  We have successfully executed OCD and EWM creates a warehouse task to move goods directly from GR to GI Zones but somehow the task is marked as waiting (B) and can't be confirmed through RFUI or using the GUI.  Also this task is not assigned to a Warehouse order. 
    Looking forward to your inputs.
    Thanks.
