Storage Type +++ in Storage Type Search Sequence

Hi Everyone,
Can someone please explain me what a '++' signifies in the Storage type Search Sequence. Like for a warehouse, for a storage type indicator, for a stock category etc. one has defined storage type: '++' in the first storage type column. What does this mean. I understand '***' might imply all storage types are equal, try all. But what does +++ mean?

Hi VIk,
SAP help of the customizing node (sPRO > LE > WM > Strategies > Activate Storage type Search):
If you want the system to search through the entire warehouse number for stock pick, enter "***" (stands for strignent FIFO) as the storage type. The system then will search the entire warehouse for the oldest stock of the material. The entry "+ + +" means that the system branches to the user exit to the stringest FIFO process (MWMT0013).

Csaba

Transfer Order : Data for storage type search is not defined (A   )

Dear Experts ,
While trying to use the Transfer Order and trying to determine the storage type this error appears :
Data for storage type search is not defined (A   )
Message no. L3007
Diagnosis
Information on the storage type search has not been defined.
How ever , I have already configured the search and here is the Storage Type search's data in OMLY
1. Warehouse number : W10
2. Operation : A "Stock Removal"
3. Indicator :   E
4. Stock Category : Blank
5. Special Stock Category : Blank
6. Storage Location Ref :10
7. Storage Type : 10E
Please Advice

Hello,
The storage type in which you want to place the material or pick the material from has not been defined in the storage type search sequence.
You need to define the search sequence in customization so that storage type is determined automatically when the transfer order is created;
SPRO>>Logistics Execution>>Warehouse Management>>Strategies>>Activate Storage Type Search
In this go to determine search sequence and then
for warehouse number W10, operation as stock removal 'A' and in this maintained the relevant the storage type (10E) so that it is determined automatically.
I hope this helps.

Storage Type Search for Multiple Storage Types

Hello experts.
I have an issue that I cannot seem to resolve.
Background
- We are using kanban strategy 0006 in order to move materials from Plant A to Plant B. Plant A is warehouse-managed but Plant B is not.
- Within Plant A we have one wm-managed Storage Location with many Storage Types.
- Within Plant B we have two Storage Locations ( each one representing a separate, physical building ).
- A majority of the kanban materials in use only have one Supply Area assigned to them. However we have approximately 15 materials that have multiple Supply Areas assigned to them. This is because these materials are common parts across two different Storage Locations in Plant B. As a result, they also have two different Storage Types assigned to them in Plant A ( the source of the material ).
Problem
Because we have common materials in two different Storage Types, the Storage Type Search (defined in OMLY) does not always return the correct Storage Type for the Stock Removal Strategy.
I understand that this occurs because the Storage Type Search is defined based upon the Warehouse Number, Removal/Putaway Indicator and the Storage Strategy. Therefore both Storage Types will use the same Storage Type Search when determining the Destination Storage Type for the transfer order.
FYI, here's an example :
- Material 123ABC is defined in Plant A, Storage Location SL00, Warehouse WH1 with Storage Types ST1 and ST2.
- Material 123ABC is defined in Plant B, Storage Locations SL01 and SL02.
- Material 123ABC has Supply Area SA1 for Storage Location SL01 and Supply Area SA2 for Storage Location SL02 defined for kanban.
- Material 123ABC has Stock Removal Strategy 003 assigned in the WM1 view for Plant A, Storage Location SL00 and Warehouse WH1.
- The Storage Type Search sequence defined for Stock Removal Strategy 003 is Storage Location SL01 then Storage Location SL02.
- When I execute kanban for Material 123ABC for Supply Area SA2, the Destination Storage Type for the transfer order should be ST2. However because the Storage Type Search is based upon the Warehouse (and not the Storage Type level), the Destination Storage Type for the transfer order is ST1 because it is the first item in the Storage Type Search sequence.
So my question : does anybody know how I can resolve this issue? We don't want to adjust our master data for these materials or supply areas. Is there a USER_EXIT that we can implement that will account for this condition?

Hi Mathew,
Based on the storage location indicator you can maintan different storage types for picking and putaway. I think your scnario willl be addressed using this indicator.Please explore this option before going for User exits.

Storage Bin Type Search

This question relates to teh storage bin type search.
When a storage bin type is assigned to a number of different storage unit types, when the systen is trying to putaway a material, does it assign preferentially according to how storage unit types are listed in this table or when finding the next empty bin, does it simply check this table to make sure that the storage bin type is compatible with the storage unit type. For example, if the storage unit type is a half pallet and the next empty bin can hold both a full pallet and a half pallet, will the system try and find a half pallet space or will it simply place the SU into the full pallet space.

Hi,
It will work like this in the material master palletization data you will assign the Storage unit type and in OMM1 you will assign the storage unit type to the storage bin type (search criteria).
So if you have HP, then in the storage type it is next empty bin it fin the FP and then HP, system will place it in the HP only.
thanks,
JK

High Level Bin Search, before Storage Type Search

Hi,
Can anyone help me to guide, which user Exit/Badi, be used for searching Empty bins, before storage type search. I come to know from one of colleague below message.
"" if you want to check the quantities on a higher level (before storage type search ), you can use the user exit "+++".""
I am unable to understand which kind of user exit "+++".
Background: Want to do putaway with storage type 007: Our high rack is having space (Bins) with different capacity. One rack can have 4 type of racks.
We want to putaway material with different bin types in one storage type.
Regards,
Mainsh Gupta

Hi Vijay,
Thanks for your quick reply. I am trying user exit given by you. Once again I would like to submit my requirements here.
a) We have 98 racks in Warehouse.
b) Product is Ball Bearing.
c) Bearings are handeled in Ea, Issue and Stock unit is Ea
d) Alternate Unit of Measure is Box, i.e. per box quantity is mentioned into Material Master.
e) Each Rack is having 5 different type of bins.
f) We want to fill rack from bottom to top for first rack, and then next rack.
g) Once we do putaway for any material, each time system should pick Next empty bin, and each bin type is different.
Case 1) If going with Storage Type 007:
                i) Need to maintain palletization data in Material master WM view 2.
               ii) Can not maintain any capacity check for Capacity utilization in Material Master. Capacity is only Pallatization data.
              iii) While creating TO, System goes for placemet of material from bottom to Top in Rack, but give similar quantity for each bin, & these quantities are defined from Material Master from Palletization data.
              iv) In this case it is not checking bin capacity.
My query:
i) How can we split quantity during TO Creation based on Next Empty Bin avaialbe with certain capacity and all further bins with other capacity.
ii) Can we have different type of bins in one storage type if we are going for Storage type 007. or it is mandatory to have similar kind of bins.
Case 2) If going for Storage type 002:
              i) Not maintined Palletiztaion data in Material master.
             ii) Maintining capacity check in WM View 1.
            iii) Maintained Capacity check in Bin master.
            iv) WHile careting TO , system doesnot spilt quantity for next empty bins avaialbe, Only one line item comes for whole quantities. and system throw an error.
Message Number: Message no. L3068
Message Details: Maximum quantity for storage bin TR-15 will be exceeded by 740.000 PC
My query: How can we split TO quantity as per next empty bins available.

Hello,
Please check whether you have maintained storage type indicator in WM view for a material.
Also check whether you have maintaied storage type search, bin creation for the storage type.
Hope this will clear

Data for storage type search is not defined (E FC1 ) in WM module

Hi friends,
I m working in Ware house management.I have created material document and using the matertial document number in LT06.
I am getting the following error while creating transfer order for material document in T-code LT06.
Data for storage type search is not defined (E FC1 )
Message no. L3007
Diagnosis
Information on the storage type search has not been defined.
Procedure
Contact your system administrator. Note down the values that are within parentheses in the error message.
Please advise me how to solve this error.
Thanks in advance.

SAP does not know where to put the material.
You usually enable SAP by defining storage type indicators, that you maintain at the putaway and picking indicator fields in material master.
then you setup the storage type search based on this indicators.
SAP can then know in which storage type it shall search for a space to store your material.
As a first step check whether you missed to enter this indicator in your matrial master WM view

ID Point for Storage Type V.S. Value in Storage Type Search Table.

I am trying to perform a GR without PO (MVT 501) for material ABC into Plant 1000, Warehouse number 100, Storage Location 0100.
During creation of Transport Order, the Destinated Storage Type appeared
is 011 (ID point for st.ty.010). However, the desired Destinated Storage Type should be 015 (High Rack) instead of 011.
I have checked the following configuration:
1. At the SPRO->LE->WM->Master Data->Define Storage Type, the value set for Field: Assigned ID (Identification point) for storage type under the Stock Placement Control = 011 (ID point for st.ty.010).
2. At the Storage Type Search Strategy, 015 is put as the first Storage Type, followed by Storage Type 001 (high Rack Storage)
3. And I found out that using LX03 (Bin Status Report) that there is no
Storage Bin created for the combination of the following
Plant 1000, WN 100, SLOC 0100, Storage Type 015, Storage Section 001
Since we do not have any Storage Bin created for Storage Type 015, it will display 011 as the destinated storage type during TO creation.
My question
After I have manually created a Storage Bin 03-01-01 for storage type 015, during the TO Creation, system still suggests 011 as Destinated Storage Type instead of the 015 I put in the 1st column of the Storate Type Search.
I already have the Storage Bin created for Storage Type 015, why the system still fails to pick it but suggests 011 from Assigned ID (Identification point) for storage type.

Dear Karthik
You are right, I did activated Indicator: Activate Storage Unit Type Check for Stock Placement in SPRO->LE->WM->Master Data->Define Storage Type
The Indicator: Storage type with storage unit management was also ticked automatically by system when I selected Indicator: Activate Storaget Unit Type Check for Stock Placement.
Are you trying to say the ID Port defined in Storage Type will have higher priority over the Storage Type value I maintained in the Storage Type Search Table?
I have already maintained the Storage Bin and I still do not understand why system still go for ID port. As far as I know, system will suggest the Storage Type from ID Port ONLY if storage bin in this storage type as their destination are not maintained in first in the other setting.
Quoted from SAP HELP
Identification point for storage type
Identification point (storage type) of the current storage type.
All goods movements that do not have a specific storage bin in this storage type as their destination are first directed to the identification point.
Here the goods are identified and a transfer order is generated for the actual transfer of the goods into the storage type concerned.
Please help.

How change Storage bin search logic in WM ?

Hi All,
Standard process to find bin during putaway in WM is as follow :
First find storage type, then storage section and finally storage bin type.
Is it possible to change slightly this logic as follow :
Find storage type first, then with first storage bin type find a bin in storage section sequence, if not found try to found with second storage bin type within storage section sequence and so on.
It's a kind of mix bewtween storage bin type search and storage section search.
Thanks for advice !
Patrice

OK, so you want it to check all storage sections for available bin type "A" and only then loop back around and check for bin type "B" from the first storage section again.
Storage bin type check is relative to the allowed Storage unit types per bin based on my understanding. During put away the system will check the allowed SUT in sequence based on your entries in your storage bin type search so it would loop within first storage section until it sees no available bin type that fits the allowed bin types (sequential) and only check second storage section (again sequential) when none of the allowed bin types are found available, so if I understand the available config options what you want is not possible without customization....check exit MWMTO003 - Customer-defined putaway strategy to create your own strategy

Hi
In WM customizing Please check for your warehouse/Storage type combnation the storage section search is on and valid.
IMG>Logistics Execution>WM>Strategies>Storage section search
if there is no entry then maintain it. The nest error may be storage bin. Make sure that you create storage bin for whsno/storage type/storage section combination by using LS10 or LS01N)
Hope it helps

Problem over storage section search

Hi all .
Actually , I'm facing a strange problem . When , I came to storage section search option , I got noticed that one of my warehouse's storage type ( RES - reserve storage type ) pre- assigned with "Y" option while activating the storage section search option - that means storage section determination but no check ....
In storage type settings , I made " storage section check " option , remains unchecked . That's fine - but , the paradox , I did the same storage type setting for other storage type , and they showed as " blank " not Y ...
my question is why it shows as Y , instead of blank ?
thanks in advance ............
regards
arghya

As a part of the customizing and implementation of WM, you need to check this customizing step.
When you activate the storage section check, you ought to check this step too, to make sure your
ST's have this setting as required.
So, the default values for this indicator are the following:
* On check (in ST settings) => set to X
* On uncheck (in ST sett.) => Set to Blank
I don't know if there is an option to set the default values for the actions in ST settings, but I highly doubt there are. Also, it seems that in your case it didn't change it at all, so it definitely isn't standard behavior of the system.
You need to test a bit more.
E.g. set to blank, and then activate the check, go back and see what is the result.
Then set to Y manually, then uncheck it at ST level. Again, return to check the indicator.
Now, don't change manually, but go again to ST settings and activate. Return to see the indicator value.
You can try a few more similar tests if you like...
This will give you an idea of what are the rules behind the ST settings => section search indicator (X,Y,Blank).
I have tried at two system now, and both of them behave exactly like I stated before.
Whenever I check ST section search, indicator is set to X.
When I uncheck it, indicator is reset to Blank.

In version 3.x.x I used to be able to type search terms into the address bar and the page would load, similar to Google's "Feeling Lucky" button. Now it just brings up a Google search for the terms I typed in. How can I get this time saving feature back?

In version 3.x.x I used to be able to type search terms into the address bar and the page would load, similar to Google's "Feeling Lucky" button. Now it just brings up a Google search for the terms I typed in. How can I get this time saving feature back?

The change between Firefox 3.6.* and Firefox 4 is how location bar search works. In Firefox 3.6 it uses Google "Browse by name" search. With the browse by name search, it performs a Google search and if there is a clear match it will take you to the site, otherwise it shows the Google search result. With Firefox 4 it just performs a Google search if you type something which is not recognised as a URL.
To get the Firefox 3.6 behaviour on Firefox 4 you need to change a hidden preference.
# Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
# Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
# Locate the preference '''keyword.URL''', double-click on it and change its value to the link shown below

If you prefer, you can also do this by installing the Browse by Name extension - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/browse-by-name
