The Soft Link between IM Level Storage Location and WM level Storage Type?
In the plant NMDC, we defined two storage locations, 0001 and 0003. They share the same warehouse number NM1.
We hope to achieve the following results:
If the goods are received to the 0001 storage location, different materials can be put on the shelf to the storage type 001 / 002 / 003 / 005 / Z02 / z05 etc; If the goods are received to the 0003 storage location, all materials are put on the shelf to the storage type Z22.
This blog is used to show how to implement this requirement through the storage location reference.
1, Storage Location Reference configuration.
Define Storage location Control.
Click ‘Storage Loc.ref. ‘ configuration item, we got below screen,
We add a new entry for warehouse number1, and storage location ref 01.
Then goto below configuration item,
We assign the storage location ref 01 to the storage location 0003 of plant code NMDC.
2, Storage Type Search configuration.
When SAP search the storage type during put away or stock removal, if there is storage location ref 01, then the storage type ZZ2 will be proposed. Otherwise, the other storage types such as 001/002/003/004/005…/Z02/Z03 will be proposed.
