Storage locations - Should we delete or option to be blocked?

Hi All,
Our client has some project site where central warehosue willdeliver the material. These project sites can be created as storage location sfor delivery address purpose. After the project is completed nobdo should pick this storage location as delivery address. What options do we have ?
1) Delete the storage location OR
2) We have any option of blocking this location for delivery?
Please help in that.
Thanks in advance,
KHAN

Hi Shamsul,
You should not really delete the storage location as this will effect existing material documents etc that refer to the location
You probably want to change the description to 'Do not use' and then see if you can restrict further access via the use of Authorisation objects

In Stock Transfer PO, storage location should be RECP

Hi,
We have a requirement that when we make the Stock transfer PO, Order type is UB....then storage location should be RECP by default.
Means in every STPO storage location should be RECP. They should go through RECP location and this should be not changeable..
Please guide..

Thanks dear...
Our motto is not fulfilled from entering the storage location in material master MRP view in field "storage location EP". For this we have to maintain the Storage Location manually when creating STPO.
But our requirement is that when we select the Stock Transfer Order - UB option in ME21N, storage location comes by default RECP and non changeable. We don't want change Storage location in any cost.
Plz. guide....

How storage location should assign automatically in confirmation-goods

Dear Gurus,
When I confirming first operation then click Goods movement screen there is one column to be filled storage location.My points is that how that storage location should automatically assign to that screen as per material master settings.
Thanks
Alok

Hi Alok Kumar,
As MARIO said there are number of ways are as he said. If it is a production storage location
1) In MRP4 view you can maintain then it will be carried out through out the process till the goods receipt.
2) If you haven't maintained in the MRP4 view then go to Production Order go to Components you can assign there these two are the most important fields for production it will be carried to Conformation Order go to Goods Movement----there you can find the Storage location OK.
I hope it will help, any questions, please pop me again.

Deletion and Creation of storage location.

Dear Experts,
Plz advise how can we un-assign any storage location from any material & how can we create the new storage location.
Regards
Sumit Kalyan

Hi Sumit,
System will allow the stock posting to storage location for which u have set Deletion until it has been achieved.
You can block the storage location of a material without affecting the rest of the location using the same material.
1.Create a Physical Inventory document for the storage location with transaction MI01 by Selecting the Posting Block checkbox.
This would prevent transactions from occuring until you either post or delete the physical inventory document.
or
2. U can create & delete the stoarge loaction at OX09. This will affect the all the material which has assigned to same storage lacation. Normally MM will do this,

Stock determination finds deleted storage location

Hello gurus,
we are using stock determination in MIGO for goods receipts to automatically determine the correct storage location for delivered goods.
Now we deleted one storage location and moved all materials stored there to another one.
But still, for certain materials, the stock determination gives the old location. Then, when we try to post the receipt, there is (of course) an error because the storage location has been deleted.
We use only one very simple stock determination strategy with just one item:
Special stock indicator: F (unrestricted-use stock)
Priority indicator: 1
Any ideas, why the old location could be found?
Thanks
Alicia

Hi Jürgen,
no, I did not remove that item, because it was not even there in the first place.
As I wrote in my OP, there is only one item with
Special stock indicator: F (unrestricted-use stock)
Priority indicator: 1
The storage location is blank!
I never used stock determination before and I know it is normally used for goods issue only, but in this system, there definately is an button called "stock determination" in MIGO for goods receipts. And when I click on it, the system determines a storage location where the material is stored. This works perfectly, except for the materials with blocked locations.

hi AK Marwadi ,
Thanks for your response, they need storage location for reference in QA32 to keep a track otherwise they are not checking those documents at all . they should go to purchasing document for storage location . Please let me know apart from development anything can be done in standard.

Check your entries in following options in SPRO path:
IMG - MM - Purchasing - Purchase Order - Set Up Stock Transport Order - Setup Stock Transfer b/w Storage Location - Setup Storage-Location-Specific Shipping Point Determination
Option 1: Define Rule for Determination of Shipping Point
Option 2: Assign Shipping Points According to Storage Location (this should be there, if in Option 1 Determin. Rule; Shipping Point is L: Storage-Location-Specific Shipping Point )

Default Storage location from PO to GR

Dear All,
How i can made storage location from to come automatic while i am doing the GR through MIGO movement type 101, but it should be changeable but main thing it should appear from PO while i am doing GR.
regards,
qsm sap

Hi,
First Storage location should be extended in Material master.
Then you can include this Storage location in PR . If you are creating PO based on PR then it will copy to PO.
While doing GR in MIGO with respect to PO the system will default this Storage location & stock will be posted to that Storage location.
If you extended in Material master but not inputed in PR/PO system will not default in MIGO.
One other option is In IMG settings if you set the checkbox set storage location automatically.
Then in MIGO you can directly choose any storage location which is created for your plant.(Make sure the str loc should be part of Plant)
No matter if you extended in material master/PR/PO

Storage Location Control and ATP

Hello Experts,
I have activated the storage location control for the putaway process and is working fine for MM and WM perspective. The following are happening without any problem:
1. Doing a GR to the virtual Storage Location and this storage location is blank in TR.
2. The stock from the virtual storage location is considered in MRP while planning.
3. TO creation from TR and doing putaway in real storage bin and Transfer posting 311 at IM level.
The requirement is: The stock from the virtual storage location should not be considered in the ATP while creating a sales order. At the moment, ATP is considering this stock as available and confirming to a date immediately but in reality it should not up until the putaway is complete. And I think this is the sole purpose of having Storage Location Control in place.
I did my research in this fourm and looked at the Warehouse Management Guide and it says "This means that for the duration of the putaway process, the stock for putaway is either not visible at all or clearly visible as stock that can not be picked, depending on the configuration of the availability check."
Can someone help me understand what to check or uncheck in ATP? Or should I post this question in the ERP-SD forum?
Appreciate you help.
Regards
Narottam

Hi,
I believe your mistake is here:
"800 K15 0800 8001 411 check box is checked "
The combination should read
800 902 0800 8001
The storage type is the interim storage type, that is where the posting shall happen. And if you leave out the check box it happens automatically.
But why movement type 411? This usually should be 311.
Best regards
Juergen

Hi Nagesh,
Thank you for the input. I am receiving Stock from vendor and while creating Inbound delivery i created the Handling Unit and also packed it and i could also post it (PG Receipt). Now when i am creating TO i have that error message. The Storage Location where i am receiving is 9001and i have also maintained the partner Storage location,,, its like this Plant(1000)-SLoc(9001)-Partner SLoc(9002).... now the Storage Location 9002 is not HU managed,, the reason i gave this Storage location is, initially i gave 9001, but system said "Storage Location 9001 and 9001 must have different management systems". So now kindly tell me what is the purpose of the partner Storage location and which storage location should i give, as my partner Storage location across "1000-9001-????" thank you again for ur inputs.
Regards,
Samuel

How do I exempt a storage location and all its materials from MRP run.
I am creating a new storage location and this should not be considered for MRP and no idoc should be generated if a purchase order or a delivery is created from this storage location( should we stop entering this storage location in BD64 filters or anything more to prevent triggering of the idoc).
Can somebody please through some light on these issues.

Excluding storage location from MRP run in Long Term Planning

Hi,friends,
In my scenario , i want to exclude storage location from MRP run in long term planning.When i set storage location MRP indicator "2" in SPRO and SLoc MRP indicator "1" MRP4 in material master, i can exclude the storage location after run MRP with MD01/MD02,and i can see the expected result in MD04.But in Long Term Planning scenario the storage location can not be excluded after run MRP with MS01/MS02,and the requirements list in MS04 include the stock in the storage location i want to exclude. i dont know if i miss something.Plz give me some advice.
Regards
Joey

Hi,
Refer the OSS Note 208017 - LTP: Long-term planning and storage locations
==========================================================================
Symptom
In long-term planning (Transactions MSBT / MS01 / MS02 / MS03), the MRP indicator of a storage location for a material is not taken into account (material master, view MRP 2 [up to and including Release 3.1I] or MRP 4 [as of Release 4.0A]).
The storage locations excluded by MRP or planned separately are also planned in the plant segment.
Additional key words
LTP, MM01, MM02, MM03, master data, MRP indicator, LGORT ...
Cause and prerequisites
The MRP indicator for a certain storage location of a material is only taken into account in operative planning (requirements planning, MRP).
The long-term planning occurs exclusively at plant level.
Solution
This is no error. The system works as intended.
The individual storage locations should not be distinguished in the long-term planning, in order to perform a comprehensive long-term planning.
This is important, for example, within the kanban processing where the storage locations with kanban MRP are excluded from the MRP, but in spite of that should be included in the long-term planning.
==========================================================================

How can I include the minimum stock of storage location in the mrp run.

Hi all,
I have in plant 1030 storage location 1001 and 1006.
MRP1 Lot Size = EX
           MRP type = PD
           Reorder Point = 5
MRP2 Safety Stock = 5
MRP4 for 1001 is not filled
MRP4 for 1006 Sloc MRP Ind = 2
                         Reorder point = 2
                         Replenishment qty = 3
If no stock and I run the mrp I get
a PurRqs for 8 with a automatic MtlRes of 3 going to storage loc 1006
If I create a reservation in 1006 for 10 units and run the MRP again
a PurRqs for 15 with a MtlRes of 10 going to storage loc 1006.
I want the result to be PurRqs for 18 with a MtlRes of 13 going to storage loc 1006.
10 for the reservation and 3 to fill storage loc 1006 with the replenishment qty.
How can I acheive this?
Best Regards!
Curtis

Hello Curtins
Please observe what is stated on question 6 of FAQ note 550954, regarding storage locations planned separately:
6. Question:
    A storage location should be planned separately. Is it possible to
    consider external requirements?
    Answer:
    No. The storage location MRP is a very simple reorder point planning
    procedure, during which only reorder point and replenishment
    quantity are defined. More complex settings can be implemented via
    storage location MRP areas.
Therefore, I'd suggest you to use MRP areas to map this scenario.

Storage Location Error duing GR of Subcontarct for The Sales Order Stock.

HI ,
Is there any settings to avoid individual entry of Storage Location field for the child components during the Goods Receipt from Subcontractor for the Sales Order Stock.
As per SAP standard , I have created Separate storage location for Sales order stock components as the Stock provided to vendor . While receiving the header component , System showing error to enter storage location for all the BOM component s . My Requirement is , Storage location should come automatically for the child component while receiving the Header Component.
Yogesh.K.

Hi Jurgen,
He's right, the posting is not a bug.
In case of MTO scenario, if components are managed in the sales order / project stock system withdraw them from storage location.
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/EN/4d/2b90b043ad11d189410000e829fbbd/frameset.htm
The subcontracting orders are account-assigned to a sales order or a WBS element. Thus, the components are not transferred (using a transfer posting) to the "stock of material provided to vendor" but are directly withdrawn from the sales order stock or the project stock at the time of the goods receipt.
Since the components are not transferred to the "stock of material provided to vendor", we recommend that you use a transfer posting to transfer the provided components to a new storage location (for example, 9999). This enables you to obtain an overview of those stocks that are physically located at the subcontractor. This information is particularly important when you carry out a physical inventory of the sales order stocks and project stocks.
