Recovery (SAP Library - Warehouse Management System (WMS))

Recovery

Use

Where the RF connection between your RF device and the SAP system has been interrupted, the recovery function enables you to resume the last activity without losing data. Operations you have saved are immediately updated in the system database. If there is a link failure, the system automatically proposes processing at the point where you last saved data.

In the case of two-step confirmation transfer orders (TOs), logging on via the Logon screen and choosing Save takes you to the destination screen for the TO items that were partially confirmed.

Prerequisites

You have defined two-step confirmation for TOs in Customizing for Logistics Execution → Warehouse Management → Activities → Confirmation.

Features

If there is a link failure after the first step of a TO (the pick step), the data saved last is retrieved again by the system. After you log on using the same username, the system automatically displays the destination data screen.

A different user can continue processing a TO that could not be finished due to link failure by choosing a transaction identified by the TO number, such as Putaway by Transfer Order. A warning message informs the user that the TO is being processed by another user.

If only certain items were saved during the pick step, you can confirm the second step (the transfer step) for the respective items and continue processing the other items.

You can also use transactions LM03 (Putaway by TO) and LM05 (Picking by TO) to enter the source screen of the specific TO, add additional TO items to the list and only then move to the destination screen.
