Floor stock

To reduce the number of transactions, you can define BOM material as floor stock; this decreases data growth and has a positive effect on performance.

To define a specific material as floor stock, select the Floor Stock check box in the Items - Warehousing (whwmd4500m000) session for that material. Floor stock items are delivered to the shop floor using Kanban, which reduces the number of transactions. To add the costs of floor stock, use surcharges.
