Strategies

In the

Warehouse Management system (LE-WM) you support strategies in order to receive proposals from the SAP System

• regarding which storage bins the goods are to be put away

• from which storage bins goods are to be picked.

There are two basic strategies in the system:

• putaway strategies

• picking strategies

With the help of these strategies, the SAP system can use the available transfer and warehouse capacity optimally.

For each storage type , you must define a putaway and a picking strategy.

Recommendation

To be able to take a closer look at the processes involved in the storage bin search (that is, processes that involve interaction between the material master data and the data from the system configuration menu in Warehouse Management), you can use the function "Log Bin Search".
You can call up this function from the preparation screens for stock placements and stock removals and from the single item screen for creating transfer orders (menu option "Environment").
This bin search log supports, on the one hand, the work of the project team in the implementation phase and, on the other hand, the analysis of Customizing errors during productive operation.
