Transfers proposal from production storrage to shipping storrage.

Question

  Dear all,
I work for the shipping department in my company and I would like to do some change in our
procedure.
Here is the structure of SLoc: We have a main shipping storage (Lean WM) which one is the
number 2000 and we have many production storages (MM) 2001, 2002, 2003, etc.
From time to time we have requirement for goods are located in MM stock (ex: 2001) these
MM stock are not manage by my team and are located somewhere else in our different
buildings.
I would like that every requirements are made for our shipping storage 2000 and that
the system propose transfers stock from MM stock to shipping stock to cover the
needs in shipping stock 2000. Ex: 2001 à 2000.
Do you know any solutions to do it? I know the transaction MF60 that analyse the need in
stock X and show the Qty missing in this stock X. Then you can propose transfer
from stock Y to stock X.
This transaction would be perfect for me, but it only analyse the need for
Production order, but don’t check the need for Transfer Order.
My English is not perfect so I hope that you have understood my problem.
If anyone know a solution, please let me know.
Thank you.
Best regards

Hi Vincent,
You may try with LP22 transaction.
This transaction basically is used for replenishing based on outbound deliveries in shipping.
Here as well, it is a Fixed Bin replenishment.
You are only to provide Fixed Bin details along with Fixed Bin storage type and it would check the bin situation. I may advise you to create a storage type near MM storage location which would be acting as PSA (Production supply area).
LP22 Transaction
Short text
Replenishment Planning for Fixed Bins
Purpose
You can use this report to create transfer requirements for the replenishment of fixed bins in which stock removals based on relevant deliveries are taken into consideration before picking takes place.
The report only considers fixed storage bins and planned picks for these in addition to the current stock situation. The number of deliveries that are considered to initiate these stock removals can be limited based on various selection criteria. The system considers transfer requirements that have already been created for replenishment as future stock.
You can use this report, for example, at the end of the workday to create replenishment transfer requirements to supply fixed bins for the following day. This way, you can retrieve an overview of the planned replenishments.
This report does not resolve any exact time planning or control of replenishments. You must still organize and carry out the physical replenishment. To post the replenishment in the system, you must create a transfer order for the transfer requirement and confirm it once the replenishment has taken place.
A goods movement from one source storage type to a fixed bin in a fixed bin storage type is considered to be a fixed bin replenishment. You enter the fixed bin storage type into the selection screen of the report. As far as this report is concerned, the source storage type is irrelevant; the source storage type is not determined until the transfer order is created for the transfer requirement using the material-dependent stock removal indicator.
You can use two customer exits to change the way the system processes data to match your needs.
In the first customer exit ((EXIT_RLLNACH2_001, enhancement MWMRP001) you can change the internal table of relevant delivery items. For example, you can add or delete items or change the quantities of the items.
In the second customer exit (EXIT_RLLNACH2_002, enhancement MWMRP002) you can change the internal table of material items with data such as total quantity for replenishment, material quantity and number of transfer requests.
