Handling Unit history query.

Hi,
Does ayone knows if there is way to see a history of packing / unpacking of a Handling Unit (HU)? For example, if the operator packed the HU with an incorrect qty, he then unpacked and re-packed it again, how can I see which was the amount packaged for the first time?
Thank you,

Handling Unit Query:

Hi,
can anyone tell how does the automic control of Pick HU in SPRO influences the source and destination HU on TO confirmation.
Avinash

Hello,
automatic Pick-HU creation influence only destination HU. You do not need to create manually pick HU in transaction 'Assign Pick-HU to Transfer Order' (LH01).
I assume that you ask about: Handling Unit Management>Basics>Warehouse Management-->Define Control for Automatic Creation of Pick HUs?

Goods Receipt of co-product (handling unit)

Hi everybody,
I wonder if it is possible to make goods receipt of co-product using standard transaction (like COWBHUWE)?
I can pack co-product with reference to an order, but when I try to post packed HU (with COWBHUWE or function module) material/co-product inside HU is switched with material defined in production order header (main material).
I can post GR of co-product with MIGO (or FM equvialent) and pack co-product later; but in that case HU has no reference to production order.
Is there any way (standard transaction or function module) to post GR of co-product HU with reference to production order?
Thank you for your answers.

In case we posted goods receipts of co-product using MIGO, we have to create/pack handling units afterwards.
Is it possible to create HU with reference to production order (VEKP-VPOBJ = '09') or somehow regularly insert data about production order number into 'free' HU (VEKP-VPOBJ = '12') history?
There is an option to fill this data (production order number) into field of VEKP, but this seems not to be the optimal way.
Thank you for your help.

Handling Unit Number against each PO Number/Sales Order

Dear All,
I have a query regarding identification of Handling Unit/s Number/s (Handling Unit Management) against each PO Number in Sales Order. E.g. I created 2 Sales Order with 5 and 7 line items respectively. Now I combine them into one Delivery which becomes as 12 Line items. Now against each PO Number/Sales Order line items I have done multilevel packing, similarly I have done this for 2nd PO Number/Sales Order line items while creating Outbound Delivery.
As per my client's requirement, he wants to print the Handling Unit Number as per Sales Order PO Number. I have checked VEKP and VEPO where I am not able to segregate the Handling Unit Number against each Sales Order/PO Number. Please find below Screen Shot.
Please help me out.
Regards:
Abhishek

Hello,
I'm not sure to understand completely your requirement.
Anyway in VBFA you should have the complete flow of the documents:
enter in VBFA with
"Follow-on doc." (VBELN) = your HU number
"Subs.doc.categ." (VBTYP_N) = 'X - Handling unit
"Prec.doc.categ." (VBTYP_V) = 'J - Delivery"
In this way for each Handling Unit you'll get the delivery number and item, and from that you can branch to the corresponding Sales Order item number and get the customer's PO number.
On top of that, in table VEPO you have the reference to Delivery number and item. The only thing you need is one more step using VBFA again, to get from the delivery and item numer, the corresponding Sales Order number and item.
Best regards,
Andrea

Hi
Handling Unit Management
Purpose
You can use Handling Unit Management (HUM) to reflect packing-based logistics structures in the SAP System. Using this method, you track the movements of entire handling units and the materials they contain rather than tracking each material individually.
When you base logistics processes on handling units, goods movements processing is made easier, which in turn optimizes all logistics operations. This simplified processing includes the existing packing function in shipping and warehouse processing in the Warehouse Management system, which is expanded here.
Features
In the system, the handling unit (HU) expands on the shipping unit. Handling units can be nested, which means that you can create new handling units from several handling units as often as you like. At the material item level, HUs contain the complete material identification, the quantity, and, in the case of serial numbers, the respective object list. Handling units have unique, scannable identification numbers that can be developed according to standards such as EAN 128 or SSCC.
Handling units contain all inventory management information of the materials they contain that are maintained in Inventory Management. There are also status messages that you can call up at any time that indicate whether a handling unit is only planned or if the ship-to party has been notified of the arrival of this handling unit, or whether it is in the warehouse or has already been posted to goods issue. The integrated history function also records each business process in the life cycle of each handling unit, meaning that you can track the handling unitu2019s path and development at any time.
In HU-managed storage locations, all goods movements are executed through the specification of the respective HUs, and Inventory Management is performed through the handling units. If you are not working with HU-managed storage locations, you can use handling units (without stock information) as before in the delivery and in the shipment.
In HU-managed storage locations, materials can be managed in HUs only. Mixed stock (stock made up of packed and non-packed materials within the same storage location) is not supported. HUs can also be managed in interim storage types. Unpacking a material from an HU means that the stock of the material is posted to a storage location that is not HU-managed.
If you call up normal material movements in connection with an HU-managed storage location, a delivery is created, rather than a direct material posting, which has been the procedure up to this point.
Handling units are unique at client level in at least one system. Using an indicator at client level (see Unique Identification of Handling Units), you can control whether you are going to work with the HU functions. Since the handling unit is a physical unit, the central logistics processes are controlled through the input of the handling unit identification. These processes include putaway, picking, and stock transfers, as well as goods receipts and goods issues.
A handling unitu2019s mobility can be limited if quality checks are active. Changes in the stock category caused by a quality inspection are made using a posting change in the handling unit.
There is also a report available that you can use to find and display handling units using different selection criteria such as material, packing instruction, or storage location.
Although the handling unit is basically a unit that remains constant in the system, you can change it by repacking the materials it contains. All the packing functions, such as packing, repacking, and unpacking, are completely supported by the handling unit function. In this way, handling units can be created in production, during goods receipt, or in the packing areas of the warehouse. If you have automatic packing, the handling unit is created from the packing proposals defined in the system (from the packing instructions, for example).

SAP Handling Unit Managment

Can any one help me.

SAP HU - SAP Handling Unit Management (HUM)
The SAP HU is used for tracking the handling units used by the materials. Some common handling units are packagings materials like cartons, pallets etc.
In the SAP system, the handling unit (HU) expands on the shipping unit. Handling units can be nested and you can also create new handling units from several handling units as often as you like. At the material item level, HUs contain the complete material identification, the quantity, and, in the case of serial numbers, the respective object list. Handling units have unique,

If you are working without HU-managed storage locations, you can work with handling units (without stock information) as before in the delivery and in the shipment.

Please note that if you want to use 311 to move the material already in stock, but in a non HUM Storage Location and you want to transfer those materials into a HUM Storage Location 304. If this is the case you can use the transaction VLMOVE with the destination plant and storage location. Before that you have to create the HU with the transaction code HU02 Storage location: where the material is and the status: in stock.

Hi,
Sometime back Allabaqsh Patil has forwarded me this material for my question on packaging. I did it and it worked well.
You can follow the same procedure and do it. It will work for you. The details are given below.
hi,
before creating the packaging material you have to go to:
IMG-Logistics Execution-Shipping -Packing.
1. Define packaging material types- it can be anything like boxes crates, etc. in this you have to maintain the output determination procedure, output type, plant determination, packaging material category, generate delivery items, number assignment. you can copy from standard also.
2. Then go to define material group for packaging materials - here you maintain the four digit code and the description. Actually, this group is nothing but similar products which require similar packing products. For Ex. Nokia Phones all types they are basically packed first into a polythene bag. So here nokia phones can become a material group for packaging materials and polythene bag can become the packaging material type which can include different sizes and types of polythene bags.
3. Define Allowed Packaging Materials - Here you assign the shipping group for packaging materials to the packaging material type. This is related to your mterial master data of the packaging material which you create.
4. Now go to MM01 to create a packaging material. use material type as Packaging material then inside the system will take the item category group as VERP. Then in the Basic Data1 screen you have the material group for packaging material (MGPM). Slect the proper one. Now in the Sales:General/ Plant screen you have to maintain data regarding the packaging. you select the MGPM same as the basic data 1 screen, then select the packaging material type, the allowed pkh weight, allowed pkg volume. This is important because if the weight of your finished item is 2 KG and in the allowed pkg weight you enter only 1.5 KG, then while you carry out the packing process in delivery, the system will give you error," packaging weight exceeded." The assignment in the IMG creen for Define allowed packaging materials should be same as u mention in the material master. Then save your material master for packaging material.
5. VA01 create the order, save it.
6. VL01N enter shipping point, go to edit - pack- you will face a screen with 2 parts. In the top part you select your packaging material in which you want to pack your finished item, enter the system will assign a number to that material. Now select the Material in the top part and the finished one in the lower part and click on the Icon Pack. Here one thing has to be taken care of. Suppose if you want to pack only one finished item in one packaging material, then in the lower part of the screen you have a field for partial quantity here you chnge it to 1. system will prompt quantity changed. now you select the material in the top part and the one in the lower part and click on the PER PART. QTY ICON. In this way the system will pack only one finished item in a single packaging material. Packing is done go back, select the picking and do the PGI. save the delivery and create the invoice.
HANDLING UNITS.
Basically handling units come into picture when you want to carry out multi level packing. suppose you want to pack Nokia phone first into a polythene bag, then this polythene bag is again packed in to box. like that. then this box will become a handling unit. For this go to :
IMG - Logistics General - Handling Unit Mangement - Basics.
1. In basics you do the same thing as you did in the packing in logistics execution. like you create the packaging material type, then MGPm and their assignment.
2. Then go to External Identification - and maintain the number ranges forthe handling units that you want and assign the same to your pckaging material type.
3. Now that you have done everything, create the order, save it, in VL01N, enter shipping point, go to edit - pack - do the same thing as i ahve told you in the step no. 6 (above). now after doing select the PACK HUs TAB . NOW IN THIS SCREEN IN THE TOP PART YOU WILL SEE THE ALREADY PACKED MATERIAL. In that same part again select your next packaging material that is BOX. enter the system will assign the number to the BOX.
4. Now select the material which you have just entered and the materials which were already packed in the lower part of the screen and click on the ICON PACK.
This is what I know about the packing process and the handling unit. you have many things in the handling unit management whichcan be very useful for automatic packing.
HOPE I AHVE ANSWERED YOUR QUERY.
PLEASE REWARD VALUABLE POINTS IF SOLUTION FOUND USEFUL.

Scrapping parts of a Handling Unit

Hi,
we sometimes face the situation that we have to scrap ONLY PARTS of a handling unitwhat was created by a production order (COWBPACK and COWBHUWE). Therefore we didn't find a functionality in SAP. So we move the whole HU via VLMOVE to a Non-HU storage location. Scrap the bad part of the HU via MIGO. Adapt the HU via HU02 and post the HU back to the HU-managed storage location via VLMOVE. This process is quite complicated for an enduser and contains also a lot of error potential.
Is there a better standard procedure for this process (Transaction?). In the company it is standard to scrap on a internal order (what is also not possible within the HU-Transaction)?
Can someone tell me the function-calls I have to use, when I want to create a program for this functionality? So far I tried to use HU_CREATE_GOODS_MOVEMENT to post the goods to the Non-HU-managed warehouse. I also used MB_CREATE_GOODS_MOVEMENT for scrapping but now I'm facing the problem, that I don't know the function calls to bring back the goods to the HU-managed warehouse.
Thanks for your help in advance

You can go to the table VBFA and enter the HU document number in succeeding document no. and give the preceding document category as 'J'. This will give you the corresponding delivery document for the HU document.
To see the document details, go to transaction HU03, input you HU document number in the tabular column and hit execute. This will take you to the handling unit details screen. In the history tab, the delivery number is displayed in the Object Key column.

Provide information about handling units

Plz provide information about handling units. Explain all the paths and information about HU.

Hi,

Handling units were changed. Cancellation no longer possible

HI All
Iam trying to reverse goods movement using VL09 transaction code.
System shows an error "Handling units were changed. Cancellation no longer possible".
Following is the history
Ii have a purchase order, outbound del with HU, inbound delivery with HU.
Due to some reason I have unassigned HU in inbound delivery and inb del has been deleted from system.
Then i tried to reverse the PGI doc for outbound del with tcode VL09
Please advice
regards
satyaprasad

Hi
As per your advice i tried steps(below) mentioned in SAPnotes but still Iam getting same error.
Please advice
1. Call transaction VL32N for processing inbound deliveries and search for the inbound delivery that is assigned to the outbound delivery which is to be reversed. For this purpose, use the search help E external delivery number of the vendor and enter "*<delivery number>" as the search criterion (the placeholder * is required because the delivery number has leading zeros).
2. If the delivery contains handling units, go to the packaging screen. The next steps depend on whether handling unit management is active:
If handling unit management is inactive, delete the handling units of the inbound delivery.
If handling unit management is active, delete the assignment of the handling unit to the inbound delivery using the corresponding function. The handling units are then assigned again to the previous outbound delivery.
3. Delete the inbound delivery.
