handling Unit

[Former Member]

Can you please let me know how to manage following scenarios:

1. In case of STO, the same Handling Unit number must be copied from Supplying plant (A) into receiving plant (B). In this case how to Set-up HU number ranges and Packaging material type to make this work

2. In Case of STO, if the supplying plant (A) Shipping Storage location(A) is HU and WM-SUM managed (A), and receiving plant's (B) receiving storage location (B) is HU and WM-SUM managed (B), In thie Case how to Set-up the SU number range to make it work in receiving plant (B).

3. For few preferred vendors, if vendors are capable to provide information regarding the pallet ID being shipped to plant, How to Set-up the HU number range to make this situation work ?

4.What is the recommendation to Set-up Storage locations:

Receiving/Raw materials- HU Managed+SUM

Shipping/Finished products-HU Managed+SUM (or) only HUM

Thanks in advance

Hi Amar

For point 1: You can maintain the HU No range in transactions HUEX, or if you require with SSCC maintain no range for HU in SNRO, SNUM, and you can maintain the Pack Matrl type in VHAR tcode & assign to MMR in Sales view.. And also you can maintain all these through SPRO>LG>HUM.

So when you issue material from issuing plant with HU packed, you can receive the same material with same HU at receiving plants.

For points 2 to 4, could you pls provide bit more clarity.

Hi,

As far as SUs are concerned, same numbers can be used as they are Warehouse Specific. And for HUs, there is a config setting to set HU identification as Unique across the system. That flag should not be set , for you receive HUs from another Warehouse.

Hope that helps

Thanks
