Production supply area question

Hi
I need to stage materials from WM storage location (0001) to production line.
Generally in WM, material staging happens by staging the materials to the PSA. So I create PSA and assign it to the workcenter.
Next step is to assign this PSA to the storage location. My question, is this storage location a different storage location or is it the same 0001 location?
Thx

hi ,
This should be a new storage type  and need not have to be a storage location.  You can use the same 0001 itself.
cheers

  • Difference between Production Supply Area and a Storage Location

    Hello Experts,
    Basic question but wanted to get more clarity on the concept as i never worked on the PSA
    Can someone tell me the exact difference between PSA and a SL. I understand PSA is a Kanban, WM and SL is an IM concept. Can a work center have a storage location assigned or just a PSA? Can a GI be done from PSA or just from a storage location.

    Hello
    The production supply area is a master data used by WM, while the storage location is used by MM-IM.
    Check this link for details:
    Production Supply Area - Warehouse Management System (WMS) - SAP Library
    The goods issue is done with reference to the storage location
    It is possible to assigne a storage location to a production supply area and assign the production supply area to the work center.

  • Production supply Area assigned to Mov Type 319

    Dear All,
    What is happening in background if we set production supply area to mov type 319(Replenish for production).
    Also please tell what is KANBAN Interface & why it is used.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Olet Malla

    Hi
    Yes you do not have WM-PP interface.
    With WM-PP Interface you can automate the entire process based on Production order status.
    For example when you confirm the Production order system will genearate TR automatically for all the components. This can be further automated to complete the warehouse operation by changing the status of Production order.

  • Production supply area (PSA)

    Hello,
    I would like to know how to define the production supply area in the material master record. It would be of much help and precise if anyone could mention the view in material master in which the Production supply areas could be assigned for a material.
    Thanks,
    Maxx.

    If you set this up on material master, it will always stage material to this area. You can achieve the same by maintaining a control cycle. With control cycle and leaving this field blank on material master, you can map it to the level of storage bin for production staging.

  • Errror : production supply area not available fieldin  work center .

    HI
       hi friends
            i want  to maintain production supply area in work centre...
            production supply area means storage location??
          i have a confusion between storage location and production supply area
    pls suggest me where i missed the setting
    with regards
    dinesh

    Production supply area is not a storage location. It is linked to one, but you may have more than one supply area per storage location.
    Supply areas are used in KANBAN processes, and I think that also in WM-PP interface.

  • Production supply area (PSA) and supply area

    Hi,
    Is there any difference between supply area and Production supply area. it woul be good if you could explain me the difference.
    Thanks,
    Maxx

    Both are same
    Production Supply Area is the link between Warehosue Management and Production function.
    Production supply areas (PSAs) are used for material replenishment and are situated directly on the shop floor in the production department. The supply area groups work centers near production storage bins based on the material staging methods. You need to enter the PSA in the work center master data.

    Hope this helps.
    An area on the shop floor where material is provided that can be directly used for production.
    The supply area is used, for example, in KANBAN production control and for material staging using Warehouse Management (WM).
    Proposed Supply Area in Material Master Record                                                                               
    The supply area is used as an interim storage area on the shop floor    
         which is used to provide materials directly at the production line.                                                                               
    The proposed supply area is mainly used for KANBAN materials that are   
         only or usually provided at one supply area in a plant. Here, this supply
         area can be easily saved in the system.                                                                               
    The proposed supply area is used, for example, to determine the supply  
         area for the dependent requirements of a material.                      
         The supply area in the dependent requirements of a material is required:
         o  to enable the system to calculate the KANBAN control cycles          
            automatically                                                        
         o  to enable you to select requirements in the pull list with reference 
            to a supply area

  • Material batches from Production Supply Area St. Type

    Hello Team,
    1.  User do LP12 for WM Staging [MvT 319]
    2.  He Goto LB11 and creates TO.
    3.  But when User creates TO for 319 MvT, system picks up batch from Production Supply Area.
    It should NOT pick up material batches from Production Supply Area.
    Please suggest at earliest..
    Thanks
    Tushar

    Hi,
    Check customizing settings
    check PK05, check if you have maintained the proper production supply area , WM storage loc. As I see it you are doing prod supply for release order parts. Also see cr02, basic data , see if you have assigned proper production supply area.
    check storage type 100 is properly defined , movement type 319  are created and their assignment made in WM.
    Also check if you have activated PP/WM interface.
    If all the settinsg are done , there should be no problems.

  • Replenishement directly from external supplier to production supply area

    Hi Experts
    I'm new in WM,
    We have a big tanks for oil which will be used by the production as a component during the production process, these tanks is in the PSA "Production supply Area" and the supplier provide the oil directly to PSA ( not throug the Warehouse) so these tanks are under the production control.
    we need to implement this process in SAP.
    we need the stept by step implementation of that request
    your support is highly recommanded for us
    Many thanks in advance

    There are many ways to do your requirement. One among them is, Implement KANBAN Process using External Replenishment.

  • Picking in WM for production supply area

    Dear expert,
    In my scenario when production order is released it will automatically create TR. Then convert to TO to move from fixed bin (source) to production supply (storage type 100). Now, i want to do picking this material from production supply (storage type 100) to supply area in work centre for production.
    How to do this?

    Hi BPO,
    Please define your requirement better. What causes problem to you?
    Are you speaking about raw materials or SFG that you get when you book confirmation against your PrdOrd?
    You can create storage bins under storage type 100 as well (to store your goods there) and you can define storage typr search (SPRO) and storage strategies (WM view in material master).
    You can define control cycles for your supply areas...
    What's your problem exactly?
    Thanks,
    Csaba

  • Production supply area w/Min Max

    Hello,
    I have a WM scenario that i want to prototype, and i would like to know the steps involved in this WM scenario.
    The scenario is :
    Production Area Supply w/ Min Max
    Illustrate the material replenishment to the PSA based on min/max levels for raw materials and intermediates; Min level based on requirements for 2 production runs, Max level based on requirements for 3 production runs.
    the material for the replenishment is taken from the storage types.
    pl. do mention the steps or how to carry out the scenario with the t codes involved in it.
    Thanks,
    Maxx

    I suggest you checking system by two ways:
    1) Set PSA to work center, now it works? If so please check BOM settings carefully.
    2) Don't use dynamic production bin, just try a physical bin. If it works please check control cycle settings.
    Note: You create the dynamic storage bin "production order" in the control cycle for pick parts. The system then stages all the materials for a specific production order in a dynamic storage bin with this production order number.
    When you system emit errors again please use LS24 to check if having a dynamic bin with a production order number.

  • Supply area assignment in Production order

    Hello All,
    Is there supply area available in production order? As per my understanding the storage locations ( either issue or receiving ) data is available in the BOM of the Production order. But is there any field for capturing the supply area in the production order. If so from where is this supply area picked, is it from the Default supply area in the production version maintained in Material master?And in which tab can i see this supply area information in the Production order.
    Regards
    Divya

    Divya,
    There is no field for supply area that can be found in production order. However this filed is available in Work center Master data. WC is displayed in the operation screen of production order.
    Supply area (SA) is used in the context of material replenishment area and is situated directly on the shop floor. Many work centers (WC) could be located within a single SA. This field is available in WC so that location of WC can be displayed easily on a large shopfloor.
    I am sure this helps. For more questions please come back.
    thanks,

  • How to realize assign mul storage location to one supply area

    senario description: in my project there two production plants A and B.and use the one serial work center which created under the plant A.At the same time ,raw material were stored the defferent storage location in every plant.and the storage location linked with WMS.my question is:
    1how to design the supply area,create one links many storage location or create one supply area for every storage location.
    2whether the TR can be created automatically when release the production order if the produciton order is in the plant B.

    Hi,
    1)how to design the supply area,create one links many storage location or create one supply area for every storage location.
    To design supply area one storage location can be assigned to several supply area however one supply area cannot be assigned to several storage locations.
    2whether the TR can be created automatically when release the production order if the produciton order is in the plant B.
    To create TR automatically you have to configure at movement type & storage type level.

  • Wm to production supply issue

    Hi gurus ,
    My question is simple but i am not getting the answer .  Pls guide me.
    In our system  Warehouse is not subjected to Production.
    Only packaging is done for the material & material despatch takes place.
    In short work flow is.
    TR>TO>Packaging -->TO confirm >TR( for dispach)>TO -->confirm TO
    Now i want to cleare the concept for production plant.( with PP module & without PP module)
      The material which are related to Bom I mean
    the Mtrl(for e.g. A,B,C,D) which we supply to Procuction supply (100 st.type) will be processed which will now form single finished(for e.g. F) componant. this mtrl now we want to Put in Final storage bin (from 100).
    Now my point is how the system will treate in WM point of view i.e. we know the material A,B,C,D is present in the 100 st. type & Finished componant F is not present in st type 100??
    pls.guide me.

    Hi,
    If you use mvt 201 for component consumption, the GI happens in IM and WM movement comes after that. /This scenario differs from material staging with production supply (storage type 100) where the WM-movements happens before GI (independently from GI)./
    In this scenario a negative quant comes to existence in 911 + bin (bin correspond to the cost center) and you fill up this negative quant form normal storage bin.
    GI > WM-movements is the sequence and GR can happen independently form this because there's no real order and this way there's no realcontrol.
    Disadvantage of this scenario is that you cannot control your component flow in WH if there are several "production order" in progress with reference to the same cost center - the same bin is used in 911.
    If you want to have stronger control you should implement PP modul.

  • Handling Unit Management and supply areas with WM/control cycles

    Dear all,
    has anyone come across the issue how to handle a replenishment process for production with supply area within WM and Handling Unit Management?
    Normally a supply area is being staged via control cycles. in the supply area, all storage units get lost (standard functionality as far as I know). When we post the GI, the components will be taken out of the supply area, backflushing is not allowed as far as I know.
    Now: what happens if HUM is switched on? Do we have to enter a HU for these GI's as well? Or does the supply area  keep the information of the SU/HU? I want to avoid that the users have to tell the system the HU no. for every screw they take/consume...
    Thanks & regards
    Christian

    Hi,
    (as already described,)
    it is possible to use handling unit management together with lean        
    warehouse management. You activate handling unit management independent  
    from storage unit management (that is only possible in case of full-WM   
    as far as I know).                                                       
    Only in case if storage location is full-WM- AND HU-managed the storage  
    unit management is always active and HU numbers are taken over as SU     
    numbers. In all other cases HUM and SUM are independent from each other  
    and number ranges must be set a way that they are not overlapping.

  • Text table for long text of product catalog area and product description

    Hi experts,

    1. Long text for product catalog area (t-code: COMM_PCAT_ADM; Product Catalog: PCSHOP)
    I found a  table named STXL(STXD SAPscript text file lines), maybe, it is related to the long text(product catalog area), but I can not get anything from the field CLUSTD of the table STXL as  its data type is RAW. Maybe, there is a text table in CRM to store these long text information, but I dont know, Could you please give me some ideas?
    2. Long text for product description (t-code: COMM_PCAT_ADM; Product Catalog: PCSHOP)
    I found a table named COMM_CFGLNGTXT(Long Texts for Different Objects),  I can find some long texts(product description) in this table, but some others, I can not find them. I dont know why? Maybe it is not a correct text table. Could you please give me some advices?
    Thank you very much.
