In this step, you specify whether the automatic creation of storage location data is allowed for automatic goods movements.
This is advisable for goods movements via Shipping or when you post physical inventory differences, for example.
You have to allow automatic creation per plant first of all. You then have to explicitly allow the creation of storage location data for each movement type.
The storage location data is only created if the quantity is posted to 'standard' storage location stock. It is not created for receipts into a special stock (for example, into sales order stock).
The standard system is set in such a way that the storage location data is created automatically for all types of receipts (goods receipt with/ without reference, stock transfers, intial entry of stock balances, reversal of goods issues, etc.).
