Mixed Pallets

Hi guys
Please does anyone know of any standard SAP configuration that allows MORE THAN ONE material to be packed/ place on ONE pallet?
Thanks in anticipation of your prompt response.

Please does anyone know of any standard SAP configuration that allows MORE THAN ONE material to be packed/ place on ONE pallet?
"Packed" or "placed"?
Both placing two material onto a pallet and packing them into the same HU are possible if your settings are proper.
1. Packing is in connection with HUM > if the packaging material is defined (allowed) for both material, you can pack them into one HU.
2. You can use "Mixed storage without restrictions" setting for your storage type (SPRO > LE > WM > Master Data > Define Storage Types, V_T3010-MISCH). However, this doesn't mean that you can make SAP to automatically create mixed SUs - you can do this only manually...

KP02 Mixed Pallet Configuration

Hi
I am trying to understand the KP00 & KP02 condition types for Standard SAP Pallet discounts.
1) KP00 - Full pallet Discount.
2) KP02 - Mixed Pallet Discount( Group Condition & Full pallet discount).
When i define this condition type in Pricing procedure similar to standard SAP "RVA001" it is like below
805 1 kp00
805 2 Kp02
( how does this counter 1 & 2 work in Pricing procedure).
Now i create a condition record for both the condition records .
Create sales order.
Both the condition applied for a Material if it reaches 1 Pallet.
I suppose only ONE Should work and give discount? How does this work?
Any help is highly appreciated.
Thanks

they work together because there is no condition exclusion between them.

ROberto

Putaway strategy for mixed pallets

Hi guys,
I need your suggestion to determine the correct putaway strategy. This is the scenario: We have a rack which will stock mixed pallets (more than one material) in the same bin. We want the same behavior of the putaway strategy I u201CAddition to existing stocku201D. In order to control the capacity of the bins Iu2019ve configure the Capacity check method 4 u201CUsage check based on materialu201D and try to control the capacity by volume, however, this measure is not realistic because in a pallet exist a lot of space that will not be consume by the material (in this case, books).
Example:
1 Pallet = 1.000 CM3
1 Book = 1 CM3
Consume of material = 1
Bin capacity = 1000
In this case, de capacity check will let stock 1.000 UN of material in the bin, but the true is that one pallet could only contain 700 UN.
I try to get the consume materialu2019s amount dividing the bin capacity by the total quantity of a pallet (Consume of material = 1000 / 700) but this could only works for NOT mixed palletsu2026
A possible solution is the Pallet strategy, but I have the same error. You define the pallet quantity at material level, so I have the same problem for the mixed pallets. Can I indicate the system which materials will go together before the TO creation?
Any suggestion will be really appreciated!
Sebas

Hi Hein
yes, creating seperate storage type for racking and floor is a solution.
but if we want to keep it as whole room as One Storage type.
what you think about putaway strategy "P" Pallet putaway strategy. if we consider floor as speerate BIN TYPE and define BIN TYPE and SUT permitted . And Allowed SU in that BIN TYPE.
your opnion please.
thanks & best regards

Limiting "mixed pallet" on sales orders?

We are trying to determine how to limit the number of "mixed pallets" a customer can order. We have the pallet qty by sku set up on the material master. We'd like to have the system calculate when an order reaches 5 mixed pallets and not allow any more. For example, the customer might order 16 skus that configured together, reach the 5 mixed rule, or they might order 25 depending on the different pallet configurations. How would we go about setting up this rule by customer or customer type? I am not an SAP expert but it seems those who in the company are aren't familiar any way to do this. Any help to get us moving in the right direction would be helpful.

Fernando,
Let me restate your requirement so that I understand your question:
A Sales order is created 'today' with a requested delivery date of 'today'.
There exists adequate material in Stock to confirm the order.
You want the confirmed date to be 'some-amount-of-time-later-than-now"
(say 18 hours or so)
Which confirmed date in the sales order are you talking about?
Confirmed Material Availability date?
Confirmed Loading date?
Confirmed Transportation planning date?
Confirmed Goods Issue date?
Confirmed Delivery Date?
Many people with this requirement use 'delivery scheduling', and add a half day or so in pick/pack processing time. This means that you are recognizing that it takes a bit of time to create the delivery notice, print the shipping papers, pick and pack the parts, and get them ready for the carrier to ship. So, for an order entered 'now', it wouldn't be due to ship from your warehouse until 'a half day from now'.
To enable Delivery scheduling IMG>SD>Basic Functions>Delivery scheduling and transportation scheduling>Define scheduling by sales document type. Select the relevant ordertypes, tick delivery scheduling.
If this is already selected, then you can increase the pick/pack processing time of the shipping point in IMG transaction OVLZ. It can be set to a fraction of a day (2 decimal points).

Mixed Pallet Discount (KP02)

I want to configure the Mixed pallet discount.
Question:
How should I maintain data in Material Master Record for following materials
Material M1 and M2 (both material must be of same material group)
Whole Unit of measure : 50units = 1 Pallet
Thanks in advance for your reply.

SAP WM: Mixed pallet with putaway strategy "P"

Dear Experts,
I am using putaway strategy P for a storage type and I have given X for Mixed storage field.
I am not able to put multiple batches of same material in one bin, is it possible with putaway strategy P
I am not using SU management.
Thanks in advance,
Amit Kumar

This is from a WM colleague:
First it will always look at same bin as a material is stored
with put away strategy “I”.
This scenario is completely wrong, if I understand it right.
He/she needs to look at the bin strategy for the SU types
defined in the LE qty. / SUT types for bin type.
Strategy “I” is for addition to stock like they said.
Capacity check 2 only works if it is SUT active, which they say it is
not. Not the check flag, but the SUT.
The strategy for SUT type allowed to bin type only works if it
is SUT managed, which they say it is not.
The strategy just doesn’t seem right. If they do not use
SU’s, the only capacity check that works is max from the material master (WM-1
view) weight “1”.
The bin type / SUT strategy will not work unless they are using
SUT’s for storage. Not just the LE qty. in the SUT defined.
If they aren’t using SUTs for storage, it is only a quant.
Noting is configurable for strategy of quant to storage bin type.

Wm picking mix pallet from production & staging in high rack storage.

High rack storage is SU managed. I want that if I receceive 3 different material from 3 different production order how can I club them in one pallet & store them in high rack. We have activated wm pp interfaceso that TO is getting created for finished material.

It's difficult to offer logical advice without having a better picture of your operations...As Manish mentioned the stock can be pulled directly form 901 and moved into high rack on same SU as per your requirement. If you are using a dynamic bin for the GR destination bin (bin number can be your production work order number). You could easily use that bin number as your reference to move the specific qty of material into the specific bin you want to move it too.
If using some reference to determine the correct stock to pull from 901 is not a good solution and having the stock placed in a unique storage type/bin for each separate production line is a requirement then yes, automating the TR/TO and "create one new storage type & one bin for every production line. With user exit in TO creation I will decide to which bin TO should get created." sounds like a good solution. With that method the stock placement from GR will be very accurate and it will be aligned with the physical location of the stock.

Pick Mixed Handling Units

I have a scenario with regards to picking mixed pallets (pallets with more than one quant in it). I have a pallet containing multiple quants. I create a delivery that contains these same materials with matching quantities. Is there a way that SAP can propose the source HU as the destination HU when picking the delivery. Currently no matter what config I maintain (HU picking control at both the storage type level and movement type level, or in Define Control for Automatic Creation of Pick HU's) I either have to create the PickHU in a dialogue session or the system creates a PickHU.
Is there a solution for this scenario?
Thanks
Nick

I assume you use the ECC solution; in this case the storage determination/HU takeover is limited by the fact the standard logic is bound the a single item line. I am not aware if a BAdI has been added in you version of platform, so the logic can be enhanced across line items. However, last time I had the issue was in 4.7, which required a small customer enhancement from SAP.

Creating mix storage unit at id point

how can I create mix storage unit at id point. When I do gr of purchase order TO is created & confirmed automatically for id point. so I want to create mix pallet at id point. How can I create it . I checked LT09 but there only one storage unit I can enter in initial screen.

is this pallet number known into the system (is the warehouse HU managed) ?
if it is a SU managed
As per standard SAP flow the stock first comes to 902 storage type and then it goes to physical bin location.
in your case since there are 10 different material document are there 10 different TR will be there and against each TR you are supposed to create the TO now another complexity is that physically all the material is on the same SU whereas none of the TO is confirmed yet so the SU number is still in runtime. at least one TO should get confirmed so that you can use the top up logic by using the same SU
Looking at the complexity and other operational issue (during picking) I don't suggest that you should go with this approach however you are free to design the system based on your business requirement by taking into consideration of all the pros and cons of system as well as physical operation

Hi query in pricing any one please help needed

our project requirement
EX: if I am dealing with all the customers for material 1, material2 material3.......up to 50 materials. If I would like to check minimum order quantity only for few materials (let us say material1 minimum 5 quantity and material 2 minimum 5 quantity and <b>material1 +material2 combines 10 quantity</b> is also Ok) and if any customer not buying in this category automatically $10 fee(surcharge?) has to apply for this order.

Hi sai,
Pls check out for condition type kp00 to kp04.I am not sure whcin ctype it is.It for calculating mixed pallet surcharge .Where a surcharge will be levid on the customer .If he doesnt order for the goods in full pallet.ie if pallet can hold 100 qty and if u order only 50 pcs.then u can get a surcharge from the customer.
I think by going thro this conditions and making slight modificationss u can meet u'r requirement.Details about these conditions are avbl in SAP library under special pricing conditions.
I am not confident whether its right.Guru's pls point out if i am wrong.

LT12: how to manipulate the handling unit

Dear all,
This is my first message on this forum and I've seen many bright lights on this forum so I have high hopes of your response to my question : )
When I want to confirm a transfer order with trx LT12, 2 Handling Units (HU) are assigned (which can be seen in the lower part of the screen). I have 2 items in my active worklist (different storage units) and can modify some fields, including the HU. For some reason both items have the same HU (the upper one of the assigned HU). I would like the first item to have the first HU and the second item to have the second HU.
My question is simple (and I had thought this would be possible but I've tried a LOT and did not succeed, hence my cry for help here): is there a possibility to manipulate the Handling Unit before it is shown on the screen? I did not seem to find a suitable BADI/user exit.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your efforts!
With kind regards,
Roel van den Berge

Dear Roel van den Berge
if iam not wrong you can achieve the same by TO split
Transfer Order Split
Use
To optimize processes in the warehouse, it often makes sense to split up putaways and stock removals into smaller packets according to certain criteria. In doing so, it is important, for example, to:
     Distribute the workload equally amongst the warehouse workers
     Optimize stock movements in the warehouse according to certain criteria.
The transfer order (TO) represents a work package and determines the actual workload for a putaway or stock removal. It can therefore make sense to split a single, extensive transfer order into several smaller transfer orders. During the TO split, the system creates several smaller packets from one large one.
During the TO split, the TO items are divided up between one or more TOs. A TO split does not however mean that the system divides individual items of a TO into smaller TO items.
Prerequisites
1.     You define the criteria according to which the TO split is to occur in the Customizing for Warehouse Management under Activities  Transfers  Processing Performance Data/TO Split  Define Profiles.
a.     To define a TO sort profile, choose Sort profile for TO splitting.
In the sort profile for the TO, you define the criteria according to which you want to sort the items in a transfer order before the actual split.
For each of these sort criteria, you define whether the system is to sort the transfer order items in ascending or descending order.
Before the actual dynamic TO split, you must sort the corresponding TO according to certain criteria. By sorting the TO items, you ensure that the TO split is sensibly executed and that no nonsensical TO splits occur.
b.     To define a TO split profile, choose Profile for Transfer Order Splitting.
c.     You assign your sort profile to the TO split profile by entering it in the field Sort profile.
2.     You determine when the TO split should take place in the Customizing for warehouse management under Activities  Transfers  Processing Performance Data/TO Split  Control for Performance Data Processing/Define TO Split.
You also assign a key to the TO split profile, consisting of a warehouse number, movement type, source storage type and destination storage type.
Features
Standard Sorting of TO Items
Control of the TO split occurs on the basis of the sort. The system defines the sequence of the items in the transfer order before the actual TO split via the sort, so that the sequence of the TO items corresponds to an optimal sort sequence for later processing.
Since the system always executes the forced split of the transfer order items according to the forced split criteria, the system always sorts the TO items in the standard sort in accordance with the forced split criteria in the order that the forced split criteria are processed.
Forced Split
Even if you have not set any user-defined criteria for the TO split, the system always executes a TO split according to the following forced split criteria:
     Planned data is required
The TO split first divides the TO items for which planned data creation is required, from the TO items for which planned data creation is not required.
The TO split also causes a further division for all TO items with planned data creation, according to the source storage type and destination storage area criteria.
     Per split profile
As soon as TO items differ from one another in the split profile to which they are assigned, a TO split occurs according to the split profile criterion.
     Per performance data profile
As soon as TO items differ from one another in the performance data profile to which they are assigned, a TO split occurs according to the performance data profile criterion.
     Per staging area
The TO split divides the TO items according to the staging zone to which they are assigned.
     According to mixed pallets
The TO split then separates the TO items containing mixed pallets from those containing no mixed pallets.
The TO split also creates a further division of all TO items with mixed pallets according to the storage unit that is to be moved.
     According to queue
The TO split divides the TO items according to the queue that these TO items are assigned to.
If you work with queues, you can assign each work area to its own printer. That way, all materials that are to be processed in a specific area can be combined in one list and printed on the assigned printer.
     According to handling unit items
The TO split then separates the TO items containing handling units from those containing no handling units.
     Separate confirmation of the withdrawal step and the transfer step is necessary
The TO split divides the TO items with split confirmation from TO items for which split confirmation is not planned.
The system transfers the information on the forced split to the header via the transfer orders, which are created as a result of the TO split.
The forced split criteria are obligatory. You cannot influence the forced split via the user exit. The system does not adopt any changes to the forced split criteria.
Dynamic Sorting
Before you can execute a dynamic TO split controlled via the Customizing settings, the TO items should be sorted according to the split criteria. In doing so, you ensure that the TO split is sensibly executed and that no nonsensical TO splits occur.
You can define the sequence of all the storage bins in the warehouse based on a specific sequence and sort the TO items according to this sequence. The system sorts according to the Sequence indicator in the warehouse master data.
Dynamic Split
You can define several criteria for the TO split in the Customizing for Warehouse Management.
     Split according to movement unit
On the basis of this split criterion, you create a new TO for each movement unit. In doing so, you create TOs with one item for exactly one movement unit.
You use this split, for example, during goods receipt when a whole pallet is moved from the GR area into the warehouse.
You define the split according to movement unit in the Customizing for Warehouse Management under Activities  Transfers  Processing Performance Data/TO Split  Define Profiles  Profile for performance data with the indicator Split single TO.
     Split according to picking area
You divide up the items to be picked according to the areas of responsibility of the picker.
     Split according to target times in the TO
You determine, for example, how long the picking for a transfer order is allowed to take.
     Split according to scope (weight or volume)
You determine the total weight or volume that a transfer order can cover for putaway or stock removal.
Note that the volume is calculated based on the alternative unit of measure. A box with 10 bottles, for example, can have a different volume than 10 times the volume of one bottle. If the volume for the alternative unit of measure has not been defined in the material master record, the system uses the volume from the base unit of measure for its calculation.
Activities
Note that you have no influence over the TO split according to forced split criteria.
You can, however, define your own criteria for a dynamic TO split via user exit MWMTO012. For more information, see the system documentation on this user exit

Which SAP module for static location control in warehouse management ?

Hello,
can someone please help me answering this question:
One of our warehouses is managed with location. One item can be stocked in more than one location, but the user decides which location he puts the item in. We do not need dynamic location control.
Do you think we can manage this with the modules we plan to implement (MM, SD, PP, FI, CO), or do we absolutely need a new module (WM) ?
Thanks in advance for yourr help.
Regis

Dear Regis,
If using the Warehouse Management System, a storage location can be further defined down to the bin level.
Although it is possible for you to manage warehouse inventories using the Inventory Management (IM) application component, the primary difference between managing stock in WM and in IM is that in IM, the system can only display the total stock of a material for a storage location. If a warehouse is small and easily manageable, then the use of IM may be sufficient to fulfill your needs.
WM, on the other hand, offers the capability to manage stock quantities in each individual storage bin in highly complex storage facilities. This means that, with WM, you can optimize the use of all storage bins, mix pallets belonging to several owners in randomly slotted warehouses and know exactly where a particular material is located in the warehousing complex at all times.
The bottom line is it all depends on various facrors including budget, complexity etc.
Regards,
Naveen.

Condition types and scale basis

Hi
Can any one tell me for conditions types and scale basis for maintaining condition records
thanx in adv

dear
Scales in nothing but a range of order quantity, according to the pricing element depending upon the range of quantity prices way be increased/decreased, higher discounts, low freight changes can be offered.
Ex: when per one item is 100/- if customer placed the order for
Range          price
100/-
95/-
90/-
Check --value:
We can specify the changing rule for scale rates as ascending or descending.
Scale type:
This indicator controls the validity of the scale value or percentage from certain quantities or value up to certain quantity or value, alternatively it is possible to work with internal scales that must be stored in the condition type that is the scale type the interval scale cant be change in the condition record due to technical reasons ex: condition type PR02 graduated scale.
Scale formula:
We can specify the formula for determining the scale base value; we can provide formulas that has not been provided in the standard system. Ex: condition type KP003 to support mixed pallet surcharges can be used
Condition scales:
We can maintain scales for each and every condition type so that we can determine pricing condition value depending upon the range of order quantity.
Ex: If we maintain condition record for PR00 for material one as a Rs.1000/- for one material then we can maintain scale for this material like below.
     Quantity          Price
0-10     1000.00
11-20     999.00
21-30     998.00
31-40     997.00
Configuration settings:
Go to VK11; maintain condition record for PR00,
Select line item and click on scale icon on the application tool bar &
Maintain scale rates accordingly, save it & exit.
Got to VA01 and raise scales order, validity periods to scale. Check the condition value

Query in multithread in one connection

May be answer in docs - but I didn't find.
1) May I use a lot of queries in one connection ( only SELECT) in threads ? Or it impossible?
2) Is it faster?
3) What does a thread make during waiting for
result? Will it block all another threads ( include without queries) or it behaves like "sleep"?
