How to deactivate/disable auto TO print-out for Storage bins and storage type in WH?

Is there a way to deactivate auto printing of TO for some storage bins ? If yes then can you please tell me step by step configuration?
If no then how can we deactivate auto TO printing for the Storage type ?

Hello Manu,
As I know it works entirely at storage type level, not storage bin level in WM. This is standard SAP default behavior.
It is standard behaviour that printing settings in the warehouse are generally based on storage types and movement types
Please check the user exits for transfer parameters.
in RLVSDR40 -> MWMD0001 : EXIT_RLVSDR40_001
Print transfer orders (TOs)
Check user exits MWMD0001 or MWMD0002, a detailed documentation via Transaction SMOD.

How to clear stock from storage bin and delete bins?

Hi All
For the development of prototype we have made some dummy warehouse structure and made stock movements with dummy bins. Now we wanted to go for real implementation. Before we made actual configurations, we wanted clear all dummy data. Can anyone suggest the standard process for clearing the stock, storage bins?
Thanks
Sasidhar Gupta

Hi Sasidhar.
is it non production system.
If yes you can move all this stock in some other storage type as dummy with dummy name.
and you can use all built as actuals.
or do PI and remove all stock from system as not actual stock .
and if its non production system then why are u worrying about all this. Let it be and start building your system as you require.

Creation of New storage bins for storage type 007 in Production

Hi Gurus,
Coudl you please give me a clairty, storage bins can transport from Qaulity or we have to create seperately from server to server like Qulity and production.
thx
r

Hello,
As correctly mentioned storage bins never transported from one environment to other. You have to create through LS10 or LS01N.
The bin structure can get transposted from one environment to other & then you can open the structure & create bins in numbers.The bin structure can be seen through LS10 & created through same transaction.

Fixed "Default" Storage Bin per Storage Location

Hi all,
I have a Storage Location (1234) with only one Storage type (FIX) and one Storage Bin (FLOOR).
What I want is all materials should go (when receiving) to this Storage Bin.
I have configured the Putaway strategy for the Storage Type "F - Fixed bins"
But it's not working. The system is always considers the Next empty bin strategy.
I don't want to make the storage bin fixed per Movement type or per material...The same material can be maintained in different storage locations.
Thank you
Best regards,
Kifah Yacoub

Hi,
a storage location never has a storage type.
If you have a storage type and this has one one bin, why don't you use the strategy "Open storage". Then only that one bin is used. of course you need to allow "addition to stock" and "mixed storage" with all consequences.
If you used "fixed bins", you also have to assign the bin to all the materials.

After upgrading to 8.1 Pro from 8.0 Pro, my Storage Spaces and Storage Pool are all gone.

Under 8.0 I had three 4-terabyte drives set up as a Storage Pool in Storage Spaces. I had five storage-space drives using this pool I had
been using them for months with no problems. After upgrading to 8.1 ( which gave no errors ) the drives no longer exist. Going into "Storage Spaces" in the control panel, I do not see my existing storage pool or storage drives. I'm prompted
to create a new Pool and Storage Spaces. If I click the "Create Pool" it does not list the three drives I used previously as available to add.
Device Manager shows all three drives as present and OK.
Disk Management shows Disks 0,1,2,6. The gap in between 2 and 6 is where the 3,4,5 storage spaces drives were.
Nothing helpful in the event log or the services.
I've downloaded the ReclaiMe Storage Spaces recovery tool and it sees all of my logical drives with a "good" prognosis for recovery. I've not gone down that road yet though because it requires separate physical drives to copy everything to
and they want $299 for the privilege.
Does anyone have any ideas? I'm thinking of doing a fresh 8.1 install to another drive to see if it can see it or reinstalling 8.1 to the existing drive in the hope that it will just suddenly work. Or possibly going back to 8.0.
Thanks for your help!

Storage bin type and storage unit type.

Hi,
Can anyone explain what is the differnce between the staorage bin type which is maintaine for storage bins and the storage unit type which is maintained in material master.
Can any one correct me that My material storage unit type is maintained in TT and the storage bin for put awayis maintained in PC (storage bin type).
is this the right way to be adapted.
Sunil

Hi,
THe storage unit type is a description of how the material is stroed in the storage bin.
Some bins may not able to allow a full pallet due to height restrictions,but a half-pallet may fit.so warehouse can define a storage unit type that defines a half-pallet and qty of the material that can fit on that half-pallet.
Configuration menu path:IMG-logistics Execution-Warehouse Management-master data-material-define storage unit type.
where as storage bin is the lowest level of storage defined in the warehouse.

Storage unit types and storage bin types - Need

Hi,
i want to know what is the use of the storage unit type and storage bin type.
thanks,
Maxx

Dear Maxx,

Storage Bin:
A storage type generally contains several storage spaces or slots. These are called storage bins in Warehouse Management (WM). The storage bin is the smallest available unit of space in a warehouse. The storage bin therefore describes the position in the warehouse where the goods are or can be stored.
Since the address of a storage bin is frequently derived from a coordinate system, a storage bin is often referred to as a coordinate. The coordinate 01-02-03 for example, can refer to a storage bin in row 1, stack 2, and level 3.
You assign each storage bin to a specific warehouse number and storage type according to its location. You must also assign each storage bin to a storage section.
You can also define the following additional characteristics of a storage bin:
Maximum weight
Total capacity
Fire containment section
Storage bin type (for example, for small or large pallets)
With certain stock placement strategies, the storage bin type plays a significant role in optimizing the automatic search for a storage bin in connection with the pallet type. For example, you can define the WM putaway strategy to place large industrial pallets into a specific large bin type and smaller pallets into small bins.
Storage Unit:
In the system, a storage unit record consists of a header and at least one material data record (quant data record).
The header contains information which is relevant for the entire storage unit and includes the:
Storage unit number
Storage unit type (SUT) of the storage unit
Storage bin in which the storage unit is currently located
Status, which provides current information about the storage unit
Specific information about the stock contained in a storage unit is found in the material data record. The material record is already familiar to you in the existing system as a quant data record. For SU management, this information can be managed at the storage unit level.
The following graphics illustrate how WM handles storage bins with and without the use of storage unit management. For these examples, storage bins are displayed in which 200 boxes of red pencils and 50 boxes of blue pencils are stored. The stock is distributed on two pallets.
Hope this will help.

Naveen.

Dynamic destination bin with Mov. Type 311-312 and Storage type 001?

Hello WM experts,
I'm tryng to determine dynamic destination bin with mov. type 311, when trasfering handling units from IM to WM storages (VLMOVE). First 311 transfer to St. type 921, and then 312 transfer from 921 to St. type 001. I don´t want to use a Fixed destination storage bin in St.type 001, I'd like to configure this like movement type 601, that create a dynamic destination bin using outbound delivery. Can be this possible?
Another question I have: Is possible to crearte individivual items with Source target quantity in alternate unit equivalent to 1 unit, in LT03. For example, the item 10 of my outbound delivery says 3 ST of XYZ material. But I want to crear 3 items with Source target qty. 1 ST. Is this possible with customizing or using an enhancement? ...
Why I want to find a way to do any of these things above, because when I have indivial intes in the TO, I can confirm them in RF (LM61) just pressing one button, I don't need to declare any difference, and makes my picking process faster.
Best regads, and thanks for you time and help.

Storage type & Storage Bin determination in MB1B

Dear all,
I want to configure the system like this-In MB1B T-Code for movement type 301 system determine storage type and storage bin from where Stock has been transfer.How I achieve this?
Thanks & Regards
Dipayan Bose

Hi
This is possible in standard SAP once you save the Material document.. Make sure your Plant and storage location have warehouse assigned.
Do transfer posting in MB1B with Mvt type 301 with Plant and storage location.
Alos ensure your material master has been extended to WM 1 & 2 views.
Check in MB03 for the Item details there is button called WM parameterer click this to see the storage type & Bin
System has to create the Transfer Requirement document then only you can see the storage type & Storage bin and this is possible once you save the transfer posting document.
Hope it is clear.

Can any one tell me how can be this rectified - Is this a config related issue or data problem ?
Pls help me.

Hi all,
Thanks for your replies.
Manish: Where do I see that the storage bin is created with respect to storage type? I was checking LS03N where I can see that the storage bin is created for storage section and storage bin type. Configuraiton is like below:
Storage Bin search Strategy:
(1) By storage section: Not active
(2) By Stotage Bin type - Active and the storage bin type is assigned to a storage type.
I have one storage bin available (Bulk Storage) for the selected storage Bin type BUT it is not automatically searched by the process. Material master has WM view1 with storage type indicator and there is a config for storage type search which is working good. The only issue is searching storage bin while creating TO during Goods movement, in particular Put away. Also please note that the storage bin is not hardcodes in material master).
This error happens for all the scenarios (unrestricted, blokced or when WM stock is initial or when the materrial is created first time and subject the WM movements).
When I first started this question I thought that the error happens only for Blocked status. Actually it is happening for all the scenatios when the WM stock in initial.
Hope my scenarios are clear. Thanks in advance for your help again.
Best regards
Nagarajan

Difference between Storage Unit type and storage type

Hi,
I am confused with storage unit type and storage type.
Can anyone help me with real case examples.
I would like to know about Storage unit types and their uses in WM.

Hello!
Storage type is a storage area and Storage Unit Type is strategies are used in the warehouse process for creating transfer orders.
A storage type is a storage area, warehouse facility, or a warehouse zone that you define in Warehouse Management (WM) for a warehouse number. This is a physical or logical subdivision of a warehouse complex that is characterized by its warehouse technique, the space used, its organizational form, or its function. A storage type generally contains several storage spaces or slots. These are called storage bins in Warehouse Management (WM).

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_470/helpdata/en/c6/f838f94afa11d182b90000e829fbfe/content.htm
Storage Unit Type is putaway strategy, the system processes different storage unit types (for example, pallets) and allocates them to the appropriate section. Often, one storage bin is divided into several smaller sections. Typically, only the same storage unit types can be placed into a storage bin at one time.

Storage Unit & Storage Bin

Dear All,
How to make that one storage bin can have serveral storage unit?
Such as we want one storage bin can contain three pallets.
regards
Gang

Hi,
There is no restriction on using any no. of storage unit types for a storage bin. Storage unit types are defined at warehouse level. The path is Logistics Execution -> Warehouse Management -> Master Data -> Material -> Define Storage unit types.
You can define any no. of SUT for a warehouse. Now these SUTs are assigned to materials in material master WM view 2. And materials are linked to bins. SO, whatever materails you have for a bin the SUTs for those materials are all valid for that bin...
Hope this is of some help for you..

Noopur
