I've activated the automatic pick HU assignment for 601 movement type. Now the pick HU's are automatically getting created in LH01 but I'm not able to understand how the packaging material is assigned to handling unit proposal in LH01.

Currently Packaging material "A" is assigned for packing proposal for all the handling units,

There is no active packaging instruction as well. Can someone please explain how to resolve this issue

Hello,

it is defined in SPRO>Logistics - General>Handling Unit Management>Basics>Warehouse Management-->Define Control for Automatic Creation of Pick HUs.

Define Control for Automatic Creation of Pick HUs
In this workstep, you can control whether a pick-handling unit is automatically created during transfer order creation.
If the quantity to pick should be repacked into the pick-handling unit, a pick-handling unit must be assigned to the transfer order at the latest when the transfer order is confirmed. You can assign pick-handling units as follows:
1. Automatic pick-HU creation using Customizing when transfer orders are created (see below for description).
2. Using transaction 'Assign Pick-HU to Transfer Order' (LH01).
3. On the initial screen for TO confirmation (LT12).
4. Using the IDoc 'WMPHID01'.
Automatic Pick-HU Creation When Transfer Orders Are Created
Depending on the storage types involved and the movement type within the transfer order, you can control pick-handling unit creation. If you always want to pick into a pick-HU for a certain combination of storage types with a certain packaging material type, enter the number of this particular packaging material in the 'Packaging Material' field.
If you do not enter a packaging material, the system attempts to find a common packaging material for all materials in the transfer order. Note that this has a negative effect on performance for transfer order creation.
You can use the 'Automatic Pick-HU Creation' field to control whether a handling unit with the relevant packaging material type is created immediately and is assigned to the transfer order. If you enter '1' in this field, only one handling unit is created for each transfer order.
If you enter '2' in this field, only the packaging material determined in the transfer order is determined. This can be useful, for example, if you want to send the transfer order to an external system, and to then inform this external system about the permitted packaging material.
If you activate the 'User Exit' field, the user exit 'BADI_HU_AUTOPACK' is called. This user exit enables the system to determine several pick-HUs for the transfer order. These HUs are then created and assigned to the transfer order.

Hi

It defaults through Packaging mat type/Pack Mat group config in SPRO & assignments in Material masters.

Thanks Ramesh....The problem I have is:

I have 3 packaging materials A,B and C with different packaging material type (X) and packaging material group (Y) and

finished product with packaging material group (Y) because it will not have assignment for packaging material type (X)

In LH01, the system is automatically defaulting to material A for all the finished products having packaging material group Y.

Can you please help
