Warehouse Monitor: Determine Critical Stocks in Production

Purpose

This report is a warehouse activity monitor report that determines all critical stocks in production storage bins for the warehouse number specified on the selection screen for which an inconsistency exists between the transfer requirements and the transfer requirement quantities in the associated reservations.

Whenever the report is run, the database table of critical stocks in production storage types is reorganised: the report deletes all stocks from this table that are no longer critical as the inconsistency between the transfer requirements and the transfer requirement quantities in the associated reservations has been resolved. The system does not archive the records.

You should execute this report as part of a batch job that is run at fixed intervals (for example, once or twice a day). This report is also called up by the warehouse activity monitor (transaction LL01, Warehouse Management screen: Environment -> Warehouse activity monitor), if you are on the warehouse activity monitor overview screen, place your cursor on the Critical stocks for production supply object, and choose Edit -> Determine data again.

Prerequisites

The system will only determine critical stocks for production supply for a warehouse number if you have activated the Critical stocks for production supply object in Customizing for the warehouse number entered on the report selection screen.

Output

The report will store all determined critical stocks in production storage types in database table LL05. All bin stocks contained in this table will be displayed as critical stocks for production supply by the warehouse activity monitor (transaction LL01) if they still exist at the time the warehouse activity monitor is called up.
