Two Batch in a Single Bin_ Specific requirement

[Former Member]

Dear Team,

Its a specific requirement.

A whole pallet of 1000 kg will be placed into a Single Bin. One Pallet may contain different batches totaling 1000 Kg

1. Batch 'A' - 1200 kg, Batch 'B' - 1400 Kg, Batch ' C' - 1600 Kg.

St Bin placement should be

Bin B1 - 1000 Kg of Batch 'A'

Bin B2 - 200 Kg of batch 'A' + 800 Kg of Batch 'B'

Bin B3 - 600 Kg of Batch 'B' + 400 Kg of Batch 'C'.

Could you please suggest how to configure such requiremnt?

Thanks a lot

OK so set the st type to allow mixed storage and set a 1000kg maximum weight capacity on your bins

You can do a mass change to your bins using LS11

I hope that this helps

Hi Frenchy, thanks for your response.

Actually St Type already marked for "Mixed Storage" and set "Max. Weight" for a bin.

But system keeps on posting qty into next bin. It does not mis up batch to tottal up 1000 kg.

Any suggestion?

Thanks

Hi Sam,

As requested, it can be configured using Storage Unit management because you the requirement is to place multiple batches in one bin. The below steps need to follow

Configuration:

1.Define self storage type

2.Active SU management in the storage type

3.Active Mixed storage

4.Define and assign further configuration settings like section, indicators, bins etc.,

5.Define Strategy for Pallets

Master data:

Maintain storage unit capacity for the material in WM2 view.

Process:

While taking GR system will allow you take different batches for a material in single storage unit, because you activated mixed storage at storage type level and also you maintain bin capacity.

I think I answered you question.

Hi Madhu,

Thanks a lot for your valuable input

Current I have below settings

1. Putaway strat : P - St Unit Type

2. Mixed Storage: X

3. Add to Exist St. : X

4. SU Managment : Activated

5. SUT check : Active

6. Capacity method: 1 - as per max. weight

7. material master: Palletization maintained as 1000 kg per PAL

8. Bin: Bin type mainatined with max. weight 1000 kg

9. Define Strategy for Pallet is configured: Bin Section and assignement to SUT is done

STILL this config is NOT ABLE to fulfill my requiremnt

I tried permutation and combination..but failed.

Could anyone suggest a solution..?

Thanks

Sam

Hello Sameer,

It is hard to determine with few information why one bin isn't chosen. Then I suggest you to find out

via debugging when another bin is chosen. I can give you the tip on where in source code the putaway

strategy and bin determination happens:

Set a breakpoint in the strategy chosen to find out why:

- SAPLL03A

- LL03AF0D

- FORM STRATEGIEN

...

perform nachdaten_ermitteln.

Then you can check why the storage bins is chosen through the following code:

- SAPLL03A

- LL03AF1X

- FORM_NACHPLATZ_ERMITELN

I hope it helps, sometimes the only way to really understand is checking customization along with the operation analysis.

Best Regards,

I am not sure that I understand your requirement

Are you saying that you want one batch per bin?

If this is the case you would have to break down the pallet to 4 seperate pallets to seperste the stock and then in the st type config try setting Mixed storage not allowed (leave the field blank)and it would put one batch in one bin

I hope that this helps
