The Putaway Rule (e.g., FEFO, addition to existing stock, empty bin) defined in the storage type controls the sequence in which bins within that storage type are selected during the putaway search. The storage type search sequence determines the order of storage types checked, but the Putaway Rule refines the selection within each type, making it critical for the described logic.

The Resource assignment within the Warehouse Order Creation Rule determines which resource (e.g., a forklift, a person, a staging area) is proposed to execute a warehouse task. If the wrong staging area is being assigned, the configuration linking the process type (e.g., picking) to a specific resource or resource group in this rule is the primary suspect.

An Inspection Rule is used to automatically trigger a quality inspection process for inbound deliveries based on criteria like material or vendor. Part of this rule’s configuration determines the destination storage type (e.g., quarantine) for the goods upon receipt before the inspection is carried out, fulfilling the requirement.

The correct process is to first post the difference (in this case, a removal of 15) to adjust the book inventory to the physical count. Subsequently, EWM allows for the creation of a follow-up document (like an internal transfer or scrapping) to formally document and investigate the reason for the discrepancy, maintaining audit trails.

In PI-based production integration, the Material Staging Scheduler (MSS) is the core PP component that determines the staging date and time based on the production order schedule and creates the corresponding staging request, which EWM then converts into a warehouse request/task. The warehouse task creation rule in EWM executes the request but does not initiate it.

The Packing Profile assigned to an outbound delivery item contains the critical setting ‘Pack Always’ (or similar). When this is active, the system will always create a new handling unit during the packing process for that item, regardless of existing HUs, which is essential for generating new SSCC labels for each shipment.

This is the most accurate analogy. A Warehouse Request (e.g., for picking a full delivery) represents the work requirement. The system then breaks this down into one or more executable Warehouse Tasks (e.g., pick material A from bin 01-01-01), which are the discrete steps assigned to a warehouse worker or resource for execution.

In a decentralized scenario, the goods receipt in ECC triggers an Inventory Change Message (ICM) to update stock. However, the creation of the inbound delivery document in EWM is triggered by an Inbound Delivery Message (IDM) from ECC. If the IDN is missing, the IDM queue in the EWM monitor (transaction /SCWM/MON) is the first place to check for errors or stuck messages.

The ‘Addition to Existing Stock’ putaway rule directs the system to search for a bin that already contains the same product and has available remaining capacity. This consolidates stock into fewer bins, maximizing the use of each bin’s capacity and is ideal for high-density storage like high-bay racking.

The Putaway Rule (e.g., FEFO, addition to existing stock, empty bin) defined in the storage type controls the sequence in which bins within that storage type are selected during the putaway search. The storage type search sequence determines the order of storage types checked, but the Putaway Rule refines the selection within each type, making it critical for the described logic.0
