Putaways from the Production Plant to the IM 

Purpose

Entry of goods receipts for production orders.

This function can be used to speed up stock placement from the production plant. This is made possible by preplanning goods receipts by means of the production order.

Prerequisites

The standard IDOC WMMBID01 is used in this case as well. The barcoded stickers must be generated in accordance with individual requirements.

Activities carried out in the warehouse (generating transfer orders, physical transfer etc.) are independent of this as it is the Inventory Management system that is interfaced in this case.

Process Flow

An example of a possible process can be seen below assuming that the goods are sent to the warehouse from the production plant once the manufacturing process has been completed.

  1. The production order number, material and quantity are marked on stickers which are attached to the appropriate pallet before the goods leave the production plant.
  2. The data is read in via barcode scanners in the goods receipt zone and sent to the SAP system where it is then posted.
