Function documentationCustomizing Settings for the Production Supply

 

BC Set /SCWM/PROD_SUPPLY contains the standard settings that you require to use an SAP Extended Warehouse Management (SAP EWM) system in connection with an SAP ERP system for storage and material staging of products and finished products. It contains:

  • New storage types Production Supply (1000), Production Supply GI (1005), and Goods Receipt Production Supply (9015) for the production supply, and entries that are dependent on these, such as storage sections and activity areas.

  • New stock types P2, P4, and P6 for stocks in production, and entries that are dependent on these, such as availability group 003.

    There are new stock types, which refer to availability group Stock in Production.

  • New availability group for Stock in Production, to separate the production supply stock from the stock in the warehouse. You can assign this availability group to a production storage location in the SAP ERP system, which is different from the SAP EWM production storage location, but managed in the SAP EWM system.

  • New warehouse process types 2100, 3100, 4100 and entries that are dependent on these.

Activities

Perform the following activities:

  • Define storage types for the production supply

    Storage type role K — Production Supply is available for storage types. You assign storage bins of this type to a production supply area (PSA). Depending on whether you are using a separate production storage location in SAP ERP, you assign the availability group Goods Compl. Available (002) or stock in Production (003) to the storage type. In the standard system, SAP delivers two storage types for the storage type role K — Production Supply:

    • Storage type 1000 for separate production storage locations in SAP ERP (with availability group 003)

    • Storage type 1005 for non-separate production storage locations in SAP ERP (with availability group 002)

    • For inbound deliveries for the production supply, SAP delivers the new inbound delivery staging area 9015, which serves as a separate staging area for the production supply.

  • Define stock types for the production storage location

    If you have a production storage location in SAP ERP, you must create or define new stock types for this production storage location on the SAP EWM side. The standard system uses the following stock types:

    • P2 (unrestricted-use stock for production)

    • P4 (quality inspection stock for production)

    • P6 (blocked stock for production)

    All three stock types use availability group 003 (stock in production).

    If you have defined the new stock types in the system, for example, by activating the BC Set, you must then assign availability group 003 to SAP ERP storage location in Customizing for SAP EWM.

  • Warehouse process types for the production supply

    SAP delivers three new warehouse process types for the production supply:

    • Warehouse process type 2100 for the production supply with outbound delivery (see also organizational model IM Managed Production Storage Location)

    • Warehouse process type 3100 for the production supply with internal goods movement

    • Warehouse process type 4100 for the production supply with posting change delivery

  • Assignment of PSAs

    You can replicate PSAs from the SAP ERP system.

    On the SAP Easy Access screen, choose Start of the navigation path Interfaces Next navigation step ERP Integration Next navigation step Replicate Production Supply Area (PSA) End of the navigation path (transaction /SCWM/PSA_REPLICATE)

    The system makes the assignment between the PSAs in the SAP ERP system and the PSAs in the SAP EWM system automatically. You make the assignment in the SAP Easy Access menu.
