Mobile Data Entry for KANBAN (SAP Library

Mobile Data Entry for KANBAN

Use

It is possible to process kanban signals that have been entered into the system by a barcode scanner, using an instrument with both a barcode scanner and a display. This allows you to process errors on site, for example, if you encounter errors when setting a status.

For this purpose, existing screens in the KANBAN component have been changed into character screens with the SAPConsole, so that they can be displayed on a data entry instrument. This means that it is not necessary to use external middleware to convert the screen.

For additional information see Mobile Data Entry.

Integration

You make the settings for using this solution in Customizing for Logistics Execution.

The screen is converted to a character screen using the SAPConsole. For information about the SAPConsole and how it is used, see the SAP Service Marketplace under the alias SCM. Here, choose Solution Details ® Cross-Industry Solutions ® mySAP Supply Chain Management ® Execution ® Info Center SAP LES ® Presentations ® Ratio Frequency to access the User Guide for the SAPConsole.

Prerequisites

In Customizing for Logistics Execution under Mobile data entry ® Define menu management you have defined a main menu for KANBAN or you use the SAP KANBAN menu, which is under the warehouse number.

In Customizing for Logistics Execution under Mobile Data Entry ® RF Queue Management ® Assign User to Queues you have assigned your users the dynamic main menu for KANBAN or your self-defined main menu.

Caution

In the field Status, set the indicator so that the user is active for mobile data entry.

The warehouse number used in menu management must match the warehouse number used for assigning the user to queues. This is simply necessary for technical reasons; the warehouse number does not have any other significance for KANBAN in this process. You can fill the field Queue, as you like, as it is unimportant for the KANBAN process.

Actions

On the Logon Screen select a display format and then choose F1-Save.

This takes you to the screen RF Menu.

All processes run, just as if you were not using an instrument for mobile data entry.

To log off, choose F8-L.off
