Methods of Product master upload in EWM

[chaitanya_naravane]

Hello all,

Can you please advice on following -

For data migration of product master from ECC to EWM, out of the following two options, which one is used in which scenario?

What is advantage and dis-advantage of each option?

1. Using CIF (Tcode: CFM1 and CFM2)

2. Downloading material master from ECC and uploading product master in EWM using Tcode: /scwm/mig_product

Regards,

Chaitanya

Hi,

only the second option is not enough. You first need to CIF.

The upload function is only to create a warehouse product with the WM data of the material in ERP. But the basic data you need to transfer via CIF.

So only the second thing is an option. The first thing is a must.

Dear Juergen,

Can you please see CK Reddy's reply? .

I am confused. Can you please look into your reply one more time?

Further, in Tcode: /N/SCWM/MIG_PRODUCT what is effect of following indicators-

- packaging specification

- Fixed bin assignment

- Packaging specification for WM UoM

Yes,

We need to use both methods...one is at global data level and other one for warehouse level.

Pack specs are other master data..if want to use ECC packaging instructions ,need to retrive from ECC and upload it in EWM.

fixed bin assignments we use the transaction /N/ SCWM/FBINASN in EWM

Hi Chaintanya,

If we use the CIF methodology , the product can be stored first global data level then it would required to maintain warehouse product data.

If we use the Transaction /N/SCWM/MIG_PRODUCT in EWM, directly we can migrate the data at the warehouse level.
