Hi ananth,

Execute the bin sorting with t code /SCWM/SBST, if still you are getting the error, check the stock removal strategy aginst the WPT 2010.

one more thing, check the optimisation settings for stock removal process , it is under stock removal stategy.

Dear Mr CK Reddy

thank you for your response

I did the bin sorting in /SCWM/SBST

The issue is still not solved

In the warehouse task screen as shown below i am not able to get the source bin assigned automatically

So i manually assign the source and close the transaction.

Thank you

Hi,

if you want help, you need to show the complete log, which you get by selecting the log icon after closing the pop-up. Only the pop-up does not give enough information.

"I did the bin sorting in /SCWM/SBST

The issue is still not solved"

Of course the issue is not solved by this. I do not know why C K always make people sort bins, but that does never solve this problem.

Hi Jurgen,

Hi,

I would not know why the sorting of bins should ever be a problem when creating the warehouse task. The assignment of bins to an activity area is not necessary. And so also the sorting is something which is not required. The activity area is for the warehouse order creation rule. And if you want to consider the activity area then the sorting must be done. But in the WT it does not have any function.OK, the queue can be determined using the activity area and this happens in the WT. So it is read in the WT. But it can never influence IMHO if bins are found or not.

Hello Juergen,

Just a small thing to add, sorting is used to sort bins while creating WT. It influences which bin to pick first, priority alike.

But like you said, if you don't use sorting, standard program still sorts available bins alphabetically, that's why you don't see any difference if you use alphabetically sorted pick path.

Just sayin

Hi,

"sorting is used to sort bins while creating WT. It influences which bin to pick first, priority alike"

Yes, but only if you use the activity CLSP for sorting, not pick or anything else. And still it should never give you an error message.

But yes, it means it can have some influence on the WT.

Friends,

The answer to above question is dont maintain stock removal indicator in storage type search for stock removal. Only maintain Warehouse number, WPT, Storage type search sequence and stock removal rule. I faced the error mentioned and after few testing could create picking WT.

Hope this will help all.

Thanks

Hi Ananth (and all),

Did you ever resolve this without manually assigning the source storage bin in the WT?

I am having a similar error:

M product is assigned to stock removal control indicator PI04.

My configuration assigns storage type search sequence PI04 to stock removal control indicator PI04.

SRCI PI04 with Warehouse Process Type ZD01 drives it to storage type search sequence PI04 with Removal Rule ZSHE.

I have stock in Storage Type GA01 for this product. 

The only thing I can see that looks odd to me on the log are the rule is ZSHE which is for shelf life expiration and this product should not be subject the SLED (it is a packaging material).  There is no expiration date against which to check, so I wonder if that is why it is not finding anything.

I am also not sure if the message text "Storage Type search fully defined: no entry found" should not produce a 'no entry found'.

Let me preface my questions also - I am working with the end users to determine why this is not selecting the storage bin because their EWM consultants are very busy and this is a lower priority, so I offered to jump in and try to figure it out. I have a background in ECC WM, but not EWM - trying to learn a little as I go along here. So, thanks for your patience if my question is a little obvious.

Thanks! Jocelyn

Hello Jocelyn,

This does not cause an error. This is only relevant if VFDAT is not initial. Your storage type search looks fine.

You said you have removal indicator in product. Does it also have storage section defined? You may have stocks in storage type. But if they are not in preferred storage section, all other stocks will be filtered out.

May not be the case, but make sure stocks are relevant for your document stock type(i.e. available stock F2 = document stock type F2).

If you need further help, please post physical stocks screenshot.

Best regards

Hi!

1. Check block indicator for st. bin - removal or inve

2. Check that characteristics of quant were same as in outbound delivery:

     - stock type

     - STOCK_DOCCAT

     - owner

     - Ent.of Dispose

3. Check batch (if use)

BR, Alex.
