A warehouse number is an organizational unit in Logistics, which organizes the company from the perspective of Warehouse Management.

In the Warehouse Management System, you can define a variety of control parameters at warehouse number level.

Procedure

1. Access the activity using one of the following navigation options:

 Picking  Shipping  Logistic Execution IMG Menu IMG Define control parameters and number ranges for the warehouse numberLean WM Define control parameters and number ranges for warehouse no.(double click)

1.2.2 Defining Storage Type

Use

A warehouse number is subdivided into a variety of storage types. A storage type is defined by its physical or organizational features (for example, high rack storage area, bulk storage, and goods receipt areas).

A storage type has a short description rather than an address.

Before you can implement Lean WM, you must configure the following settings:

1. Assign a (newly defined) storage location to a warehouse number.(This step is defined by step 3.12 Control Plant / Storage Location / Warehouse Number Assignment

2. You should set up at least three storage types:

a storage type (that will be used as a source storage type) with one or several fixed storage bins

a goods issue area (as destination storage type) for deliveries

an interim storage area for differences

Procedure

1. Access the activity using one of the following navigation options:

1.4 Manual Activity

1.4.1 Maintaining Number Range Intervals for Transfer Order

Use

Maintain number range intervals for transfer order

Procedure

In this step, you define that, the Number range for Transfer order as 01 and Group number as 01, now you should tell the system how the number range would like for 01 as transfer order and 01 for the group number, for both number range, you may define you own number range, the following information just for reference:

Access the activity using one of the following navigation options:

 Logistic Execution IMG Menu IMG Define control parameters and number ranges for Lean WM  Picking Shipping Maintain number range intervals for transfer ordersthe warehouse number (double click)

Transaction Code LN02

Check if the internal number range 01 (0000000001-1000000000) has been defined

Once you have defined your number ranges, it is extremely difficult to change them afterwards when the objects concerned are filled with data.

Bear in mind that you will be entering data on a long-term basis. Create your number range intervals accordingly.

1.4.2 Maintaining Number Range Intervals for Reference Numbers

Use

Reference number range has the following meanings:

This number identifies a number range to be used for the assignment of sequential numbers for WM reference numbers. Reference numbers are used to create or print a group of transfer orders at one time.

A sequential number generated by the system for the purpose of multiple processing of transfer requirements and delivery notes.

The reference number can also be used to print the resulting transfer orders at a later time.

Procedure

In this step, you define that, the Number range for Transfer order as 01 and Group number as 01, now you should tell the system how the number range would like for 01 as transfer order and 01 for the group number, for both number range, you may define you own number range, the following information just for reference:

Access the activity using one of the following navigation options:

IMG Menu IMG Define control parameters Lean WM  Picking  Shipping Logistic Execution Maintain number range intervals forand number ranges for the warehouse number Reference Numbers( double click)

Transaction Code LN06

Check if the internal number range 01 (5000000000 - 5999999999) has been defined

Once you have defined your number ranges, it is extremely difficult to change them afterwards when the objects concerned are filled with data.

Bear in mind that you will be entering data on a long-term basis. Create your number range intervals accordingly.
