Availability check at Warehouse level.

[Former Member]

We are creating Automatic Delivery and Pick Transfer Order from the Sales Order. Now when availability check is run at IM level stock is present.

But, In Warehouse some bins are blocked for stock removal .

So, Transfer Order is getting created for only stock available in WH.

Question: Can I create a storage type (maybe interim) that stores the returned and blocked stock and such that this stock would not be considered for Availability check?

Please advise.

Thanks, Rohit.

Hi

The simple answer is NO because wherever you put the stock in WM the availability check only looks at IM and if it is available you will not have a problem until you come to pick it.

There are two options I can think of to prevent this.

1. Create another St Location and transfer the stock that you cannot use to this st location - however this can be very messy.

2. The easiest way is if there is stock that you cannot pick in WM because it is Genuinely unavailable then 'Block' the stock and place it on Status 'S' in both IM and WM and then the availability check will not see it.

If however the stock is ok and it is only the block on the bin that is stopping you picking it then either remove the block or move the stock somewhere else.

I hope that this helps
