WM: Automatic Creation of Transfer Orders in the IM System

Description

When posting material documents in the system, it is now possible to initiate the automatic creation of transfer orders . The material document is created as before and the corresponding requirements and posting change notices are subsequently created in the WM system. After the material document is posted in the IM system, the definition of the WM movement type determines whether the system will automatically create transfer orders from the transfer requirements and posting change notices. This process takes place in the background. If there are errors, the system can send an express mail message to the user. The user can then process the error from within the message.

Change system parameters in customizing

You must activate this function and define which user is to receive notification for each movement type separately using the Customizing application.

Set up system for automatic creation of transfer orders

Further notes

If movement types both "with" and "without" automatic transfer order creation should appear in a material document, after the material document is posted the system goes directly to the screen to "create transfer orders for a material document".
