The handling unit inventory is only designed for storage locations that are managed using handling units. For all other storage locations you must use a conventional Inventory Management physical inventory or the WM inventory.
From the SAP menu, select
In the
Handling Unit Selection
area, enter at least the
Plant
and a
Storage Location
that is HU-managed.
Restrict the selection of handling units further, since a selection restricted simply to plant and storage location can require a long time, depending on the number of existing handling units.
The other selection criteria are:
Handling unit
Packaging materials
Material
In the
Add. Entries for Creating Inv. Documents
area, you can enter the following additional information as selection criteria for creating physical inventory documents:
Only HUs that have never been inventoried
You decide whether the selection should select handling units that have already been inventoried.
Block HUs (set inventory status)
You decide whether the
In Inventory
status should be set for the handling units that are included in a physical inventory document.
Number of HUs for each inventory document
You can specify that handling units planned for inventory document creation are distributed to several inventory documents. You can choose between
a maximum number of HUs per inventory document – the system creates as many inventory documents as are needed to inventory all HUs. Each inventory document only contains a certain number of HUs.
a predefined, fixed number of inventory documents – the selected handling units are distributed equally to the given number of inventory documents.
Physical inventory description – Text that is copied into the physical inventory to create
You can define a default inventory description to group together several inventory documents. This is not the number of the inventory document. It is a text field that can be used in a later selection.
Select the type of display you would like for the selected handling units. These are the same options you have in the HU monitor.
Select the required handling units and choose
.The system creates one inventory document for the selected handling units.
