Allowing multiple stock points for handling unit template - examplesAllowing multiple stock point details for one or more of the node levels of a handling unit template impacts the handling unit structures created based on the handling unit template. To allow multiple stock points, the Allow multiple stock points for shipping check box in the Handling Unit Templates (whwmd4160m000) session is selected for a node level. Multiple stock points not allowed in any node
level In this handling unit template, multiple stock points are not allowed in any of the node levels:
For a shipment line, these stock point details are present in the Shipment Line Stock Point Details (whinh4133m000) session:
Creating handling units for this situation results in the following handling unit structure: Because multiple stock points are not allowed for any of the node levels, multiple pallets and crates are required to contain the items of the shipment line. Multiple stock points excluded from bottom
level A more compact handling unit structure can be accomplished if for the same template, only the bottom level handling units are excluded from multiple stock points:
This templates results in the following handling unit structure if created for the shipment line of the previous example: In this structure only one pallet is created, and HU002 of type Crate contains both lots. The second crate, HU005, was created because a crate cannot contain more than two boxes in this template. Multiple stock points allowed in all node
levels In this handling unit template, multiple stock points are allowed in all node levels:
For a shipment line, these stock point details are present in the Shipment Line Stock Point Details (whinh4133m000) session:
For this template and these lot quantities, the following handling unit structure is created: In this structure, only one pallet and one crate are needed to contain the items of the shipment line. Two boxes are required, because in this example the maximum capacity of a box is 10 pcs. Multiple handling unit stock point details are created for handling unit HU003. For handling unit HU003, the lot code is not displayed because multiple lots are present. Consolidate stock points in shipment line not
allowed If the Consolidate Stock Points in one Shipment Line check box in the Inventory Handling Parameters (whinh0100m000) session is cleared, and an outbound order line includes two lots, a separate shipment line is created for each lot:
To create handling units for the shipment lines, this template is used:
This results in the following handling unit structure for the shipment: The upper levels can contain all of the shipment stock points. The bottom level handling units can contain stock points from an individual shipment line. Therefore, a separate handling unit of type Box is created to contain the stock point of each shipment line, even though a bottom level handling unit has sufficient capacity to contain all of the stock points.
