dear gurus,

how the storage loc is going to determine,i understand that we assign the storage loc rule in del doc header, which gives options like MALA RETA, MARE.and the settings for these are given as MARA-shipping point/plant/situation,RETA-plant/situation/storage condition.and MARE-first MARA then RETA..but i would like to know wher the settings for these wil be done. is it like our shipping point determination?,and is it comes under SD or MM?.plz clarify.

points will be rewarded.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Storage location is determined at the delivery document by storage location rules viz MALA, RETA or MARE.

The most commonly used one is MALA.

One rule is defined against a Delivery type (ref: check in TC : 0VLK - Delivery type LF).

MALA is determined as below:

+STORAGE LOCATION = SHIPPING POINT + PLANT + STORAGE CONDITION+.

+RETA = PLANT + SITUATION + STORAGE CONDITION+

MARE = MALA then RETA (First MALA will be applicable failing to find this rule, system will trace for RETA).

Check which rule is applied to the delivery type.

So if MALA is used for storage location determination then based on the parameters defined for shipping point, plant and storage condition system will pick the storage location.

We set Storage location determination under Shipping >Picking>Determine Picking Location-->Assign Picking Locations.
