Logical Warehouse Management System

Dear All,
I want to know the concept of 'Logical Warehouse System' in SAP.
Are all steps of Warehouse Management Syst Implementation to be followed?
Can the stock in Warehouse be considered in MRP?
Where in SPRO can I get exact steps for LOGICAL warehouse Management Syst Implementation.

Oracle Warehouse Management System system implementaion concepts.

Hello, we are using an old version of Oracle Warehouse Management System(back in Retek time). Anyways I think the concepts remaon the same. Can someone please point me to some implementation details document please. Hoping for docs that explain, for example how the concentric putaway logic is implemented in the system. That is, the inner workings of the system. I had an issue report for a bug(4896266) that explains the old logic Oracle used and the new logic they are pursuing for concentric putaway. It was clearly explained. I am unable to attach the doc, but hoping for that kind of docs or a place where to find them.

Hi,
Ah I see. I'm afraid it's highly unlikely that sort of documentation is available; I've certainly never found anything that useful. I've often had to resort to going through the PL/SQL of various packages to gain an understanding of what the system is doing. Obviously that's a terrible substitute to proper documentation.
I suppose if you were desperate you could take a look at the operations guide for a more recent version and use this as a starting point for further investigation?...
I've just had a quick search of the v13 RDM docs and it has the following to say:
Directed Movement
When merchandise is putaway, RWMS uses the product location attributes and configurable putaway plan to suggest the location that best conserves space in the reserve locations, or it inquires opportunities such as zone, location type, and status (for example, Different SKU, Same SKU, Empty Loc). The number of storage preferences associated with a particular plan is virtually unlimited, providing significant control over the storage strategy for the overall facility. Inventory Control uses three putaway methods: cube, capacity, and unit.
Cube – Dimension derived from the length, width, and height
Capacity – Capacity measured in units
Unit – Capacity in number of units
All merchandise in the DC is system-directed whether it is for putaway, processing, or picking goods.
Concentric Putaway allows for putaway plan creation that suggests reserve storage locations closest to an item picking location. This is done using XYZ coordinates to measure the distance of storage locations from the pick face. This functionality is controlled for each item within a putaway plan.
Thanks,
Dave

External warehouse management system

Hello Professionals,
When Transfer Order (TO) data is forwarded to an External Warehouse
management system, does it mean the picking is done by the
system and the update of picking result will be entered in
to SAP automatically via some kind of interface?
regards
Pascal

you can use ES for creating goods movement in SAP ( see the esoa sample apps on sdn) or you can make your won service published using BAPI .
I am not catching you in the use of BADI , elaborate more about that.

Hi Friends,
Please share the meatilink note id for Warehouse Management System Testcase/ Testscripts Repository.
Thanks and Regards,

if you have open transactions, such as deliveries, then you may not be able to process them further.
But do you really close all transactions in a test system?
It will not have any harm to new created documents

About warehouse management system

Hi All,
I want to make a small system managing our stocks in warehouse, but I don't know how to make a warehouse system, what table should I have?
I think I need to have at least:
. items
. inventory
and if one supplier sent some items to us, you know, the warehouse system is like a double record system, since stocks didn't get reased, it just moved from one place to another.
Any clue?
thanks.

Hi all,
I have created the following simple example for my problem, hope this will help you better understanding my situation, a little bit of explanation:
the business process is like this:
We have a warehouse which will hold all materials(items), some items we produced from raw material, some items we buy from suppliers, so I created an 'items' table for all the items we have. and then I created a 'stocks' table for current stock qty of each items, then I have created a 'stock_in' table, which will handle the input of stocks, maybe I can seperate that in type of table in different areas, like, for items purchased from outside, I will have a table purchase_stock_in table, which will against a table of purchase_orders, that is, if one supplier sent 100 item a, then stocks will increase by 100, and the purchase_orders related to that transcation will decrease by 100, if the purchase order qty is total 200, the we have a stock of 100, and remain 100 undelivered by our supplier. that is just an example, for items we produced by ourself, we can have another in type of table, let's say it is called an manufacturing_stock_in table, wich will against our production orders, if we have a production order total qty 300 for item b, make by work center A ( or dept A), then if they sent 100 in stocks, then stocks of b increased by 100, and production order related decreased by 100, the we have item b stock qty 100, and still 200 under production.
so the situation is stocks table, stock_in transactions( goods receipt), stock_out(goods_issue), simple enough. so I created the following tables:
CREATE TABLE "ITEMS"
   (     "ITEM_ID" NUMBER(6,0) NOT NULL ENABLE,
     "ITEM_NO" VARCHAR2(30) NOT NULL ENABLE,
     "ITEM_NAME" VARCHAR2(100) NOT NULL ENABLE,
     "COLUMN1" VARCHAR2(20),
      CONSTRAINT "ITEMS_PK" PRIMARY KEY ("ITEM_ID") ENABLE,
      CONSTRAINT "ITEMS_ITEM_NO_UK1" UNIQUE ("ITEM_NO") ENABLE
CREATE TABLE "STOCKS"
   (     "STOCK_ID" NUMBER(6,0) NOT NULL ENABLE,
     "ITEM_NO" VARCHAR2(30) NOT NULL ENABLE,
     "QTY" NUMBER(6,2),
     "UNIT" VARCHAR2(10),
     "LAST_UPDATE" DATE,
     "UPDATE_BY" VARCHAR2(30),
      CONSTRAINT "STOCKS_PK" PRIMARY KEY ("STOCK_ID") ENABLE,
      CONSTRAINT "STOCKS_ITEM_NO_UK1" UNIQUE ("ITEM_NO") ENABLE
CREATE TABLE "STOCK_INS"
   (     "IN_DOC_ID" NUMBER(6,0) NOT NULL ENABLE,
     "ITEM_NO" VARCHAR2(30),
     "REF_DOC_NO" VARCHAR2(30),
     "QTY" NUMBER(6,2),
     "IN_DATE" DATE,
      CONSTRAINT "STOCK_INS_PK" PRIMARY KEY ("IN_DOC_ID") ENABLE,
      CONSTRAINT "STOCK_INS_UK1" UNIQUE ("ITEM_NO", "REF_DOC_NO", "IN_DATE") ENABLE
CREATE TABLE "STOCK_OUTS"
   (     "OUT_DOC_ID" NUMBER(6,0) NOT NULL ENABLE,
     "ITEM_NO" VARCHAR2(30),
     "REF_DOC_NO" VARCHAR2(30),
     "QTY" NUMBER(6,2),
     "OUT_DATE" DATE,
      CONSTRAINT "STOCK_OUTS_PK" PRIMARY KEY ("OUT_DOC_ID") ENABLE,
      CONSTRAINT "STOCK_OUTS_UK1" UNIQUE ("ITEM_NO", "REF_DOC_NO", "OUT_DATE") ENABLE
ALTER TABLE "STOCKS" ADD CONSTRAINT "STOCKS_ITEM_NO_FK1" FOREIGN KEY ("ITEM_NO")
       REFERENCES "ITEMS" ("ITEM_NO") ENABLE;ALTER TABLE "STOCK_INS" ADD CONSTRAINT "STOCK_INS_ITEM_NO_FK1" FOREIGN KEY ("ITEM_NO")
       REFERENCES "ITEMS" ("ITEM_NO") ENABLE;my question is how to show the current stock_qty? that is, if I input 100 stocks, should I use a trigger deduct the purchase_order_qty, and increase the stocks qty?
how to do it? how to update the tables.
if there's one transaction, if I don't use any means of updating the underlying tables, let's say we have 3 tables in paper ledgers, then I will have to input this data manually in two places, that is for purchasing, I will have to input a transaction deducting the purchase_orders table. and then I input a record of this transaction by increasing the stocks table?
it is like you are transfering your money from account A to account B, any kind of software like Quicken will enable you to input in one place, then it will automatically showup in another place to, also true for deleting, updating, etc.
Should I use triggers or procedures implementing the insert/update/delete transactions of related two tables? how?
any clue?
Thanks!

Re-configure 'Stock Category' in the Warehouse Management system

Hi Gurus,
As we all know, it is possible to see which batch/material is in blocked status because the system highlights it with stock category indicator "S". With this, I would just like to know if it is feasible to modify the configuration in the system so that it assigns the Stock Category (labelled as 'C' in transaction LS26) as follows:
S : blocked without a usage decision
R : batches which are blocked because they were rejected (there was actually a usage decision)
Please let me know your thoughts regarding this matter.
Hope you can help me on this one. Thanks in advance.

Hello Francis,
I think it is not good idea to change the standard SAP settings becuase we are not sure where our changes will impact. However, the SAP system is behaving in the same way you want, the only thing is you need to do relevent transaction at inventory level and subsequently carry out posting change in Warehouse System.
Quality stock with stock indiacator 'Q'
Blocked stock with Stock indicator 'S'
Return stock with stock indicator 'R'
Hope this helps.

T-codes for warehouse management

hi.
can anybody gives the mostly used t-codes for warehouse management

SAP WMS - Decentralized Warehouse Management System Integration Setup
You can operate the SAP Warehouse Management System (WMS) as a stand-alone decentralized system that is independent of a central Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) System.
You make the necessary settings for the ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) system within the WMS component (Warehouse Management System).
The steps are set up as a checklist and guide you through the process of configuring the system parameters.
Checklist (For those with the Table Views used transaction code SM30).
1. Customizing for "Enterprise Structure"
- Create storage location in OX09 (if necessary).
- Define warehouse number in Views V_T3001.
(you should not copy the warehouse number in the ERP system)
Activities within a warehouse, like goods movements and physical inventory, are assigned to a specific
warehouse number.
The physical warehouse where these activities take place is identified by the warehouse number.
- Assign plant/storage location to warehouse number in Views V_T320.
(Valid if the component MM-IM (Inventory Management) is implemented.)
Fields : Plant + Sloc + WhN
2. Customizing for "Decentralized WMS integration", section "Central processing" -> Application
- Activate decentralized WMS in Views V_T340DM.
- Define interface to Inventory Management in Views :-
V_156S_WM - Assign WM movement type references to IM movement types
V_T3211 - Delivery-Relevant Parameters for Reference Movement Type
V_T340DL - Delivery-Relevant Data for Warehouse Number
- Exclude stock in decentralized WMS in Views V_T321B
(if the decentralized WMS is not an SAP R/3 system)
- Finally do a consistency check for decentralised WMS in transaction OL20.
3. Customizing for "Application Link Enabling (ALE)", section "Basis Components"
Maintaining Logical Systems in Views V_TBDLS.
Assign logical system to client in Views T000.
4. Make basic settings for RFC in transaction BD97.(if necessary)
5. Customizing for "Application Link Enabling (ALE)", section "Maintain Distribution Model"
You can define the Reduce message types and Activate message types in transaction BD53.
SAP recommends that you use message types :
"MATMAS" (material master tables) and
"DEBMAS" (customer master) as a template.
Be aware that only those fields that are absolutely necessary are transferred from the master data tables in
the ERP system to the decentralized WMS.
6. Customizing for "Decentralized WMS integration", section "Central processing" -> Distribution
Use transaction OL19 to generate distribution model. As far as the application is concerned, when the model
is generated, application-specific Customizing parameters are modified or set (for example, activate
decentralized WMS).
Display or check distribution model
Generate partner profile in transaction BD82.
(you can also perform this activity using ALE Customizing)
Distribute distribution model in transaction BD64 (model view) using menu item "Edit"
If both the ERP system and the decentralized WMS are SAP R/3 systems, the distribution model should be
distributed on a central basis only, that is, via the ERP system.
7. Customizing for "Application Link Enabling (ALE)", section "Maintain Distribution Model" (transaction BD64)
Activate the change pointers for master data distribution using transactin BD61.
If necessary, reduce the message types concerned with transaction BD53.
8. Customizing for
"Logistics - General" - "Material Master" - "Tools" - "Data Transfer : Material Master" -
-> "Define required-field check for ALE/Direct Input" (Views V_T130S)
Define whether an error message should be generated in the receiving system for required fields
from the material master.
Reward points if useful.

Decentralize warehouse management

Dear Friends,
This is the question related to warehouse management system.
My requirement is that we are going to set decentralize management. Presently we are having CWM in our present system. At another place there is local ERP , we want to replace it and need to go for decentralise WM there.
Then this decentralised WMS and my present WM willl communicate with each other.
Could you please let me know what will be it process ? Transaction cycles ? and its configuration?
Regrads,
Mahesh

Dear All ,
I got some information I am sharing with you and closing this ticket.
1) Process :
rocesses Between the SAP System as ERP System and as WM System
Purpose The variant for the SAP System as an enterprise resource planning (ERP) system and as a Warehouse Management (WM) system describes the link-up of an external warehouse management system to an SAP System. The stand-alone system that executes all warehouse management functions is an SAP System. Prerequisites Two systems are involved in this scenario. The first system is an ERP system that performs inventory management, purchasing and sales tasks and distributes existing master data and movement data to the Warehouse Management system (WMS). The second system is a WMS that performs warehouse management tasks such as putaway/picking and goods receipt/goods issue and is responsible for carrying out the physical material transfers. Process and Data Flow General inventory postings: If the decentralized scenario is used, inventory postings are not directly processed in Inventory Management (IM). If a goods movement is created in IM, the system generates inbound or outbound deliveries and distributes them to the WMS. In the WMS, the goods are put away or picked based on the existing delivery. As a result of the goods movement posting in the WMS delivery, the system sends the completion verification to the ERP system and then uses the delivery to post the actual goods receipt or goods issue in inventory management. Deliveries with a purchase order or a sales order as a source document are handled in the same way. Goods receipts based on purchase orders: You use the ERP system to create purchase orders and send them to the vendors. To give notification of the delivery that is due, the vendor returns a shipping notification that is recorded in the ERP system as an inbound delivery. The inbound delivery is distributed to the WMS using a Business Application Programming Interface (BAPI). In the WM system, the inbound delivery is a request to put away or pick goods. When the vendor physically delivers the goods, a transfer order is generated in the WMS which is used to place the goods into stock. After the transfer order is confirmed, goods receipt is posted for the inbound delivery. This clears the interim storage bin. As a result, the completion confirmation is sent to the ERP system and the goods receipt is processed in inventory management. An inbound delivery based on a purchase order can be created in different ways, depending on the confirmation control key in purchasing. If the vendor usually sends a shipping notification, the inbound delivery is created when the shipping notification is recorded in the system. In all other cases, you have the option of creating inbound deliveries automatically using collective processing. Process for goods receipts based on a purchase order: Creating the purchase order in the ERP system Generating the inbound delivery (automatically/manually) Distributing the inbound delivery from the ERP system to the WM system using BAPI method "InboundDelivery.SaveReplica" (this process is automatically executed in the background) Physically receiving the goods into the warehouse (WMS) Creating the transfer order Putting the goods away Confirming the transfer order Posting goods receipt for the inbound delivery (as a result, a completion verification is sent to the ERP system using BAPI method "InboundDelivery.ConfirmDecentral") Goods receipt for the inbound delivery is automatically posted in the ERP system (in inventory management) when the verification is recorded. Quality management in decentralized WMS using handling units (HUs) Quality management is also available in the goods receipt process in the decentralized warehouse. In this scenario, the quality management function is in the central system. If there are handling units in the inbound delivery for which an inspection lot has been created, the inspection lot number is copied into the decentralized WMS and stored in the quants there. The inspection lot does not exist in the decentralized system. You make the usage decision for the inspection lot in the central system, which triggers the system to create a posting change delivery and distribute it to the decentralized system. Then, the stock that belongs to this inspection lot is found in the warehouse and the corresponding posting change is made. From this point on, the procedure is the same as that of a posting change (see below). Other goods receipts: All other goods receipts are recorded in the ERP system. When the document is saved, the system creates an inbound delivery and sends it to the WM system using a BAPI. The inbound delivery is then processed in the WM system as described above. When the verification for the inbound delivery is sent to the ERP system, the goods receipt posting is automatically initiated in inventory management. Stock transfers: A stock transfer usually involves two storage locations (plants): the issuing storage location for picking and the receiving storage location for putaway. If the stock transfer is recorded in the ERP system as a two-step procedure and if one of the storage locations involved is a WMS-relevant storage location, the system creates a delivery for this posting and sends it to the WMS. Both storage locations involved are copied into the delivery to allow the actual posting to be executed after the verification is received from the WMS. One-step stock transfers using a WMS-relevant storage location are only possible if a storage location that is not WM-relevant is involved in the posting change. Process for stock transfers: Entering the goods movement in the system Automatically creating the delivery Distributing the delivery from the ERP system to the WM system using BAPI method "InboundDelivery.SaveReplica" (this process is automatically executed in the background) Physically receiving the goods into the warehouse or removing the goods from the warehouse (WMS). Creating the transfer order Putting away or picking the goods Confirming the transfer order Posting goods receipt for the inbound delivery (as a result, a completion verification is sent to the ERP system using BAPI method "InboundDelivery.ConfirmDecentral") or posting goods issue for the outbound delivery (as a result, a completion verification is sent to the ERP system using BAPI method "OutboundDelivery.ConfirmDecentral"). Goods receipt for the inbound delivery or goods issue for the outbound delivery is automatically posted in the ERP system (in inventory management) when the verification is recorded. When the goods receipt or goods issue is posted in the ERP system, the stock transfer is simultaneously posted in inventory management. Goods issues based on sales orders: The system uses sales orders to generate deliveries in the ERP system. The deliveries are then sent to the WMS. You use the WMS to create the transfer order, pick the goods and confirm the transfer order. When goods issue is posted, the picking quantities are passed on to the delivery of the ERP system. Process for goods issues based on deliveries: Creating the sales order Creating the outbound delivery Distributing the delivery to the WMS Creating the transfer order for outbound delivery Physically picking the goods in the warehouse Confirming the transfer order Printing the shipping documents, if appropriate Posting goods issue for the outbound delivery (as a result, a completion verification is sent to the ERP system using BAPI method "OutboundDelivery.ConfirmDecentral") Goods issue for the outbound delivery is automatically posted in the ERP system (in inventory management) when the completion confirmation is recorded. Posting changes You can also initiate transfer postings in the central system, in which case the stock change will be compared with the stock in the decentralized system and adjusted, if necessary. If you use inventory management to make posting changes in the central system, the system first generates a delivery. This delivery is technically a request for the decentralized system to make a transfer posting for the stock involved. The central system does not create material documents or make any changes in stock at this point. The delivery is transmitted to the decentralized system and, as of this point, can only be changed there. You can make settings in the decentralized system so that the system automatically creates a transfer order that corresponds to this delivery that does not require confirmation. You can also set the system to make the appropriate transfer posting in the WM stock automatically at the end of the process. The transfer posting in the decentralized system simultaneously verifies the appropriate quantities to the central system. When the central system receives this verification, it automatically makes the stock change and creates a material document. You can display the material document in the delivery’s document flow. Production supply If the decentralized warehouse is also responsible for production supply, the following two methods of material staging are available in the system: Production staging by switching storage locations Production stock is managed in a storage location that is located somewhere other than in the decentralized warehouse. In this case, the production storage location is not managed in the decentralized warehouse. If you switch the storage location in the central system, the system generates a delivery, for which you can then pick and post goods issue in the decentralized system. At this point, the stock that has been staged using this method can be used in a manufacturing order in the central system. Goods issue posting for a manufacturing order In this scenario, the raw materials are taken directly from the decentralized warehouse’s storage location and used in the manufacturing order. If goods issue is posted for the manufacturing order in the central system, the system creates a delivery that is sent to the decentralized system. The rest of the process is the same as regular goods issue processing. Note the following distinctions with regard to reservations: Delivery does not trigger request generation If the goods issue posting that generates the delivery refers to a reservation, the reservation number is copied into the delivery. In this case, the delivery does not check for availability and no requirements are generated, since that was already done in the manufacturing order. The reservation is canceled when the actual goods issue posting is made. Changes disappear after the delivery is distributed Keep in mind that if the reservation is changed in the meantime (if the production quantity has changed, for example), this change will not affect the delivery. Similarly, a change in the delivery will not result in a change in the reservation. The WM/PP interface, which you can use for production supply in an integrated system, is not supported for decentralized warehouse processing. This function is not available decentrally because the WM/PP interface is based on the assumption that WM and PP are running in the same system, which is not the case in a decentralized system. Goods receipt for a manufacturing order You can process goods receipts from manufacturing orders in the decentralized WM system. For goods receipt postings, the central system first creates an inbound delivery for the manufacturing order and distributes it to the decentralized system. In the decentralized system, the inbound delivery serves as a basis for putaway in WM. You can correct quantity differences here. Once you have confirmed the putaway transfer orders, goods receipt is posted in the decentralized system. The decentralized system then reports the quantity that was posted back to the central system. This verification automatically makes the actual goods receipt posting for the manufacturing order, along with the material document, in the central system.

1.2.2 Defining Storage Type
Use
A warehouse number is subdivided into a variety of storage types. A storage type is defined by its physical or organizational features (for example, high rack storage area, bulk storage, and goods receipt areas).
A storage type has a short description rather than an address.
Before you can implement Lean WM, you must configure the following settings:
1. Assign a (newly defined) storage location to a warehouse number.(This step is defined by step 3.12 Control Plant / Storage Location / Warehouse Number Assignment
2. You should set up at least three storage types:
a storage type (that will be used as a source storage type) with one or several fixed storage bins
a goods issue area (as destination storage type) for deliveries
an interim storage area for differences

1.4.1 Maintaining Number Range Intervals for Transfer Order
Use
Maintain number range intervals for transfer order
Procedure
In this step, you define that, the Number range for Transfer order as 01 and Group number as 01, now you should tell the system how the number range would like for 01 as transfer order and 01 for the group number, for both number range, you may define you own number range, the following information just for reference:
Access the activity using one of the following navigation options:
 Logistic Execution IMG Menu IMG   Define control parameters and number ranges for Lean WM  Picking Shipping   Maintain number range intervals for transfer ordersthe warehouse number (double click)
Transaction Code LN02
Check if the internal number range 01 (0000000001-1000000000) has been defined
Once you have defined your number ranges, it is extremely difficult to change them afterwards when the objects concerned are filled with data.
Bear in mind that you will be entering data on a long-term basis. Create your number range intervals accordingly.
1.4.2 Maintaining Number Range Intervals for Reference Numbers
Use
Reference number range has the following meanings:
This number identifies a number range to be used for the assignment of sequential numbers for WM reference numbers. Reference numbers are used to create or print a group of transfer orders at one time.
A sequential number generated by the system for the purpose of multiple processing of transfer requirements and delivery notes.
The reference number can also be used to print the resulting transfer orders at a later time.
Procedure
In this step, you define that, the Number range for Transfer order as 01 and Group number as 01, now you should tell the system how the number range would like for 01 as transfer order and 01 for the group number, for both number range, you may define you own number range, the following information just for reference:
Access the activity using one of the following navigation options:
IMG Menu IMG Define control parameters Lean WM  Picking  Shipping Logistic Execution   Maintain number range intervals forand number ranges for the warehouse number Reference Numbers( double click)
Transaction Code LN06
Check if the internal number range 01 (5000000000 - 5999999999) has been defined
Once you have defined your number ranges, it is extremely difficult to change them afterwards when the objects concerned are filled with data.
Bear in mind that you will be entering data on a long-term basis. Create your number range intervals accordingly.
