Creating Interim Bins with Predefined Coordinates

Storage bins in interim storage areas must be created the same as bins in other storage types in Warehouse Management. Generally, interim storage bins are created when WM is installed (see Generate interim storage bins under Start of the navigation path Interfaces Next navigation step Inventory management End of the navigation path in the Warehouse Management IMG documentation). Later, when you define new movement types to which you want to assign interim storage bins, you can create these bins either manually (see Creating Storage Bins ) or you can set up WM to create them automatically. In the latter case, carry out the following procedure.

  1. Choose Start of the navigation path Logistics Next navigation step Logistics Next navigation step Execution Next navigation step Master Data Next navigation step Warehouse Next navigation step Storage Bin Next navigation step Create Next navigation step For Interim Storage End of the navigation path from the SAP menu.

  2. Enter a warehouse number and choose Start of the navigation path Program Next navigation step Execute. End of the navigation path

  3. The system checks all movement types in which you have defined an interim storage type and displays two lists. The first list contains storage bins that have not yet been created in WM. The second list contains storage bins that have already been created in WM.

  4. Choose Create bins .
