WM putaway bin search

Hi all,
Hope you guys can help me out with this issue.
I have 3 level racks and at the 1st level all the bins should allocate a specific material say I have 5 bins and materials A, B, C, D, E, should be placed in there in that order say 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 that means material A cant be placed in bin 2, 3, 4 nor 5 only in bin 1 and material B only in bin 2... and so on
The problem if I use putaway strategy F "Fixed bin" say for material A is that when bin 1 is full, the strategy "turns" to next empty bin, and if bin 2 is available then it will go to bin 2, and this is wrong because in bin 2 there should be only material B
If the "fixed" bin is full the system should go and look for some other bin but in the 2nd or 3rd level not in the first "fixed" level
I can allow addition to stock neither mixed storage, therefore if there is material in one bin no matter if it is full or not (we are checking bin capacity) system should try to find other empty bin
Is there a way to exclude some bins from the putaway search strategy, or to define a range of bins on which the system should look for putaway?
Please advise on how to solve this issue
Regards

I think this can be accomplished by using storage sections

Bin search for putaway

Hello, experts!
Could someone give advice on following situation:
1) the storage type (high rack) has put away strategy P- storage unit type, mixed storage is set A- Several homogeneous storage units per bin, the mixed storage has value X - Addition to existing stock permitted.
2) material master has mark Addition to existing stock allowed.
When creating TO to move some returned quantities to stock, system is not searching for bin with existing stock. It adds the quantity to first available bin, where storage unit is allowed.
Is it possible to set system first add to existing stock without using strategy " I ", since mixed storage is not allowed for this strategy?
Thanx in advance!
WBR,
Brucke

Hi Brucke,
It is hard to diagnose without full information however you can try to find out which strategy it is executing by setting a
break point in the include LL03AF0B in the line PERFORM STRATEGIEN. Then try to trace LTAP-VLPLA: Source storage bin when you get into LL03AF1F you will see then the bin search strategy and why was that.
I hope to have helped you.

Stor bin search log

Hi
I was wondering if someone can help me or improve my understanding plse.
When creating my Transfer order the Storage bin search log is greyed out (unselectable). Meaning I cannot check the sequence in which the system is deriving the putaway bin.
menu > Environment >Stor bin search log (here SAP gives a detailed description how it executes the defined strategy.)
I am using an ID point and handling unit management.
The process
Receipt into the ID point (MT101) then use LT09 create transfer order for storage unit. It is at this point I want to review the storage bin search log. It is unavaible.
Is this related to fact I am using an ID point? If so is there some other mechanism to display how the system has executed its logic? (Rather than going to Spro which users will be unable to access?)
Many thanks,
Adam.

Thanks for the response but LT01 is not applicable in this instance. (Create TO)
We are using handling units and I want to put away using the putaway sequence which is still held while using ID points. This is picked up via LT09.

WM bin search strategy

Hi experts:
I am facing a WM bin search issue, we have customise the stock removal search sequence from storage type 200,210, according this sequence firstly stock will remove from 200 then 210, now for 210 we have a specific Bin XXX for special purpose, we want to when search 210, this bin xxx stock will the last one should be removed, can anyone guide me, thanks!

Hi Karthik,
But this material is stroage in several Bins under storage type 200, My purpose just want to the material in this Bin XXX will be the last removed,if I set the stock removal indicator in master data(warehouse1 view) then all related Bin with this material will effect.
Let's say: material A storage in BIN XXX,YYYY, I assign removal indicator "1" in mater data, but system still don't know which bin stock should be the last te be removed, from XXX or YYY.

Sort bin search for picking

Hello,
I have storage type X with multiple pallets for material A. I configured SLED picking strategy but I also need to sort the bin search by quantity.
For various reasons there are pallets smaller then the standard size in this storage type (there shouldn't be but... life is life), and I need to ship the standard pallets before the anomalous ones. Is there a standard exit where I can do this? (or a standard way to do this)
Thank you

Hi Joao,
In Standard we have picking Strategy Strategy A: Partial Quantities First,
you can have a look on that if that is not meeting the requirement then you can write the piece of code in user exit EXIT_SAPLL03A_005,
Please refer solution proposed in one of the existing SCN thread
Using 'Partial Quantities Management Strategy-A' without Storage Unit Management

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.
If you will give me your contact number, I can speak to you over phone and eleborate in more details for your clear understanding my issue.

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

Difference between open storage & Bulk storage PUTAWAY STRATEGY

Dear all,
What is main difference between open storage & Bulk storage PUTAWAY STRATEGY ?
Thanks & Regards,
Olet Malla

Hi,
Open storage is a type of warehouse organization in which you define a single storage bin for a storage section. Normally if it a large area with one (or more) storage sections.
Materials that occur in large quantities and generally take up a lot of space in storage are often stored in bulk storage. Mainly it is used for Reduced need for physical storage bins, Fast access to the trading units, Clear structuring of the warehouse (into blocks and rows)
This putaway strategy searches for storage bins in bulk storage.
Thank you

Combine putaway for goods reciept in WM

For material A, the LE palletization QTY is 300 in material material data/WM2 view,for material B,the LE palletization QTY is 200 in material material data/WM2 view.
There are one delivery No. like below
delivery No.   delivery item     material    QTY
101             1                  A         100
101             2                  A         200
101             3                  A         100
101             4                  B         100
101             5                  B         100
101             6                  B         100
we need below three kind of solution
solution 1
The TR is generated when we post GR based on the delivery automatically
The TR doc is like below format, the TR QTY is consilidated
TR No.   TR Item No.         Material         QTY
1          1                            A              400(100200100)
1          2                            B              300(100100100)
So when the TO is generated automatically based on the TR 1 in system, the TO QTY in every TO item are filled by the "LE Palletization QTY" in material master, the left QTY will occupy one TO item.
TO No.   TO Item No.         Material         Source bin QTY   destination bin QTY    destination bin
1            1                         A                  300                          300                      01-01
1            2                         A                  100                          100                      01-02
1            3                         B                  200                          200                      01-03
1            4                         B                  100                          100                      01-04
So we can save two bin comparing we put one bin for one delivery item in this solution(there are 6 delivery item and only there are 4 TO item ).
Solution 2
The TR is generated when we post GR based on the delivery
the TR doc like is below format, the TR QTY is not consilidated

1             3                           A             100
1             4                           B             100
1             5                           B             100
1             6                           B             100
But when the TO is generated automatically based on the TR 1 in system, the TO QTY in every TO item are filled by the "LE Palletization QTY" in material master, the left QTY will occupy one TO item.
TO No.   TO Item No.         Material         Source bin QTY   destination bin QTY    destination bin
1            1                         A                  300                      300                          01-01
1            2                         A                  100                      100                          01-02
1            3                         B                  200                      200                          01-03

So we can save two bin comparing we put one bin for one TR item in this solution(there are 6 delivery/TR item and only there are 4 TO distination bin). solution 3 maybe can be achieved by set add-on stock in storage type setting, but it need testing.
Altogether, We prefer the solution 1 and 2 because solution 1 and 2 are more consistent to actual business(user do consolidation to one pallet in GR area and not in "putaway bin" area). Could you help find the achievement method in SAP system for solution 1/2/3?
Tks very much

Hi,
To achieve this please do the following.
1.Maintain storage type indicator in Material master in WM view1.
2.Maintain palletization data in WM view2
3.Define your storage type search strategy with storage type indicator.
4.Create bins for storage type.
Please refer WM config guide to setup warehouse set up.
By doing all the above activities you can able to achieve the solution mentioned in question.
Hope I have answered your question.Please let me know if any details required.

Prashant

Automated storage type and bin

hi
thanks for givining reply
i extened the mmo1 and while doing the lt06 this storage type is coming in the destination place but the bin not coming error is coming there is no bins in the storage type
can u tell me is there any setting required in storage type .
fixed bin means which u mentiones in wm2 view i had given only some bin which created in the storage type .is it correct.i will not activated the storage section check in storage type .
can u tell me step by step .

System not abel to find storage bin .

hI All ,
I am trying to do goods reciept in storage locatrion which is warehouse managed.
required storage type indicator is assigned to material master .
Storage type config is :
Putaway strategy : I (addition to existing stock)
Mixed storage:X (Mixed storage without limitations)
Addn to stock:X (Addition to existing stock permitted.)
ENough storage bins are created in system.
When i am tryng to do GR , system not abel to find the storage bin .
note: Each bin is having some stock of some other material. But we have "Mixed storage" indicator on. so it should not have given error.
Also if i create a new empty bin , then system pulls that bin in storage bin search to put the stock there.
Please guide why system is not abel to find correct storage bin. Is there any OSS note to be applied here .
Regards
Rohit Chavan

With addition to stock strategy, SAP is looking for a bin having stock of the same material. If that is not the case then it switches to strategy "next empty bin".
Mixed storage is not allowed in this strategy.

Logic for finding Bin

Hello all
can any one help me in knowing how does system searches storage bin
when I create TO systen finds Storage bin automaticaly . How does excately system reaches to find this Storage bin.
Like in case or Pricing procedure
once system find Pricising procedure
it goes to condition type , this condition type have access Sequence and in turn Assess have condition table and in this condition table we have condition record
if system finds and condition recod it gives that valu to that condition type
and the process is repeted for otehr condition type
in the same way i will like to know how system finds storage bin while creating TO.
Thanks for ur help in advance

For Fixed bin strategy:
You have to maintain the Fixed bin information in your material master. Stock placement and stock removal strategies must be updated in the material master. It means, the system always look this bin for putaway and picking process.
The following config must be in place:
SPRO > LE > WM > Strategies > Putaway strategies > Define strategy for Fixed bins.
If it is dynamic bin search: (Finding the next bin, if the first bin is not available) the prober search strategy must be defined here.
SPRO>LE>WM>Strategies>Putaway Strategies
SPRO>LE>WM>Strategies>Placement Strategies

So i read that the Database is OK, but the Index is broken somewhow ?
I`ve read somewhere that i should delete the GUID Folder and restart the Hostcontroller service, can somebody explain HOW to do this ? where can i Find the GUID Folder ? Is it the correct way to solve this problem ?
thx in advance!

Hi,
after i removed the suggested Folder, i disabled both "Microsoft Exchange Search service and Microsoft Exchange Search Host Controller service, than i restarted the Exchange Server.
After that i restarted both services.
Sadly nothing has changed, hostcontroller.exe is still crashing:
The Microsoft Exchange Search Host Controller service terminated unexpectedly. It has done this 153 time(s). The following corrective action will be taken in 30 milliseconds: Restart the service.
The sequence is like this:
First the Search controller starts:
Search HostController Starts: Service started successfully.
After that the hostcontroller crashes:
.NET Runtime: Application: hostcontrollerservice.exe
Framework Version: v4.0.30319
Description: The process was terminated due to an unhandled exception.
Exception Info: Microsoft.Ceres.HostController.Controller.HostControllerException

   at System.Threading.ExecutionContext.Run(System.Threading.ExecutionContext, System.Threading.ContextCallback, System.Object)
   at System.Threading.ThreadHelper.ThreadStart()
Than we get this Application Error:

Editing Form Field color and search field

I am designing a website - nextmedian.com and I am having
some trouble changing the background color of the some form fields
for "Your Full Name" and "Your E-mail" from yellow to dark blue.
The link is
http://www.nextmedian.com/contacts.html
The Contacts webpage html code is:
[CODE]
<form name="formmail"
action="/cgi-bin/formmail/formmail.cgi" method="post">
<input type=hidden name="recipient"
value="[email protected]">
<table width="300" border="0" cellspacing="0"
cellpadding="0">
<tr>
<td valign="top" width="76" align="right"
height="25"><br style="line-height:3px ">Your Full
Name:</td>
<td valign="top"><input type=text name="realname"
size="15" value=""></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td valign="top" align="right" height="25"><br
style="line-height:3px ">Your E-mail:</td>
<td valign="top"><input type=text name="email"
size="35" value=""></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td valign="top" align="right" height="50"><br
style="line-height:3px ">Message:</td>
<td valign="top"><textarea name="body" cols="4"
rows="2" wrap="virtual"
id="message"></textarea></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td> </td>
<td valign="top" align="right"><input type="submit"

value="Reset" size="1" style="width:42px; height:20px">
</tr>
</table>
</form> </td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
[/CODE]
(ii) I have a problem with formatting the search field -
http://nextmedian.com/cgi-bin/search.pl
to have the same look and feel as my website.

They look dark blue to me. Disable your Google toolbar.

Wm-fixed bin storage

hi all,
Each time a goods receipt is posted for material ABC, you want to move the material directly to
the fixed storage bin FIX-ABC in storage type 005 of warehouse number 001 without creating a
transfer requirement or transfer order. To do this, you need to set up the system as follows:
1. Create the fixed storage bin FIX-ABC in storage type 005 that is defined in the standard
system using the fixed bin search strategy. (See Stock Placement Strategy F: Fixed Storage
Bin [Page 359])
2. Create a special movement indicator for your warehouse number.
3. Add the special movement indicator and the fixed storage bin FIX-ABC to the material master
for material ABC. (Be sure to enter storage type 005 in the organizational level dialog box
when creating the material master).
4. Create a new WM movement type to move materials directly into fixed storage bins without
creating transfer orders or transfer requirements.
5. In the reference movement type table, create a new entry that links an appropriate IM
movement type to the new movement type using the special movement indicator.
i follow the above all the steps but the stock not moved to my fixed bin (005),instead of that its moved to shelf storage bin(002) . plz,try to solve my problem.
Appreciate your help as always.
regards
muthuraman.d

Hi
In the configuration for st type search strategies you can create a st type indicator (maybe FIX)
In the placement (E) you can add this indicator to your warehouse and in the table add 005 st type only which means if the system sees this indicator it has to go to 005
Finally in the WM1 view of the material master add the FIX in the stock placement field and then every time the material arrives it should look at the FIX nd then go to the search strategy and see that it goes to 005.
If you have lots of material for this strategy then when you have done the config use MM17 to update all of the materials with FIX.
I hope that this helps
Frenchy.
