You use this type of storage control to map complex putaways, stock removals, and warehouse-internal movements. In doing so, you combine your storage process steps into one storage process. You can also trace the status of the individual process steps.
Note
Process-oriented storage control only operates with handling units.
For information about integration, see Storage Control.
For information about the prerequisites, see Storage Control.
You define the process steps for your complex storage process.
A process step is, for example, unloading, counting, or deconsolidating. SAP Extended Warehouse Management (SAP EWM) recognizes internal process steps predefined by SAP and external steps that you can define yourself. Your external process steps can base themselves on internal ones.
In addition, internal or external process steps can be simple, such as unloading, or combined, such as deconsolidating.
For more information, see Direct and Combined Storage Control (Putaway).
The process steps for the Counting
and Deconsolidating
processes predefined by SAP can be dynamic.
