Warehouses (whwmd2500m000)

Use this session to view and maintain warehouses.

You can only use this session to view and maintain the warehouses that are defined for the current logistic company.

Every company must have at least one warehouse, otherwise orders cannot be processed.

 

Warehouse

The warehouse code.

Site

A business location of an enterprise that can maintain its own logistical data. It includes a collection of warehouses, departments and assembly lines at the same location. Sites are used to model the supply chain in a multisite environment.

These restrictions apply to sites:

  • A site cannot cross countries. The warehouses and departments of the site must be in the same country as the site.
  • A site is linked to one planning cluster. Consequently, all warehouses and work centers of a site must belong to the same planning cluster.
  • A site is linked to one logistic company.

You can link a site to an enterprise unit or an enterprise unit to a site.

If an enterprise unit is linked to a site, the entities of the site belong to the enterprise unit. Conversely, if a site is linked to an enterprise unit, the entities of the enterprise unit belong to the site.

Enterprise Unit

The enterprise unit to which the warehouse belongs.

Use Site Settings

In the current session, various settings are defaulted from the Warehousing Settings by Site (whwmd2101m000) session. If this check box is selected, settings updated from the Warehousing Settings by Site (whwmd2101m000) session cannot be adjusted in the current session.

The default Extra Intrastat Info set for warehouse transfer orders from this warehouse.

For other warehouse orders, the default extra Intrastat information set is the extra Intrastat information set you specified for the sales office or purchase office in the Departments (tcmcs0165s000) session. You can change the extra Intrastat information set on the warehouse order lines.

Kanban Signal ID Mask

The mask that is used to generate kanban signal identification numbers in the Item Data by Warehouse (whwmd2110s000) session.

If you do not specify a kanban signal ID mask, LN uses the kanban signal ID mask specified in the ID Mask field in the Warehouse Master Data Parameters (whwmd0100s000) session.

If you do not specify a kanban ID mask in the current field session nor in the Warehouse Master Data Parameters (whwmd0100s000) session, you cannot use kanban signals.

Reuse Kanban Signals

If this check box is selected, kanban signals are reused after the supply orders are processed.

The setting of this check box is defaulted from the Reuse Kanban Signals in the Warehouse Master Data Parameters (whwmd0100s000) session.

You cannot clear this check box if inactive kanban signals are present for the current warehouse.

Note

Supply system kanban is unavailable for financial warehouses.

Related topics

The number of copies is defaulted to the Print Label Layouts (whwmd5420m000) session.

Related topics

Project

The project with which the warehouse is associated.

Project WIP Warehouse

If this check box is selected, the warehouse can be used to ship project-related deliverables to a business partner.

Use Project Deliverables (tppdm7100m000) session to ship project-related deliverables:

  • From the project WIP warehouse to the business partner.
  • From the project location via project WIP warehouse to the business partner.
Note
  • If this check box is selected, the Inventory Valuation Method is set to Fixed Transfer Price (FTP).
  • If this check box is selected, the project-related inventory is financially accounted as part of the reconciliation group project (TP) WIP.

General
Locations

If this check box is selected, the warehouse uses locations. A warehouse can contain multiple inventory locations.

WMS Controlled

If this check box is selected, the warehouse is controlled by an external warehouse management system integrated with LN. Note that a financial warehouse cannot be WMS controlled.

Zero Receipt Allowed

If this check box is selected, you can confirm zero receipts.

If this check box is cleared, you can only confirm zero receipts if the following conditions are met:

  • You already received goods for the order line
  • The receipt line is a final receipt

To make a final receipt line, select the Final Receipt check box on the Warehouse Receipt (whinh3512m000) session.

Confirm Receipt as Final

If this check box is selected, the Final Receipt check box is automatically selected for all receipt lines of a purchase order line receipt after the last receipt line is confirmed. For the receipt lines, the Final Receipt check box is made read-only.

The setting of this check box applies to the current warehouse. The default value is taken from the Confirm Receipt as Final field in the Inventory Handling Parameters (whinh0100m000) session.

If this check box is selected, end users are not required to (re-) check the received items while confirming receipts and manually select the Final Receipt check box. This will speed up the receipt procedure, which can be important if large numbers of receipt transactions are involved. As an additional result, the possible situation that back orders are not created because a user forgot to select the Final Receipt check box is prevented. On the other hand, if checking the received items while confirming receipts is required for the current warehouse, you must clear this check box.

The only way to undo the automatic selection of the Final Receipt check box for an individual receipt is to adjust the receipt quantities in the Receipt Correction (whinh3121s000) session. This session requires specific authorization.

Note
  • If this check box is selected, and receipt confirmation must be blocked if the received quantities are not fulfilled according to the receipt tolerances, you must redefine the receipt tolerances either by changing the Warn value to Block, or by adjusting the quantities.
  • You can define receipt tolerances and blockings in the Receiving group box of the Items - Purchase Business Partner (tdipu0110m000) session.
Confirm on Scan

If this check box is selected, the receipt of the goods listed on an order line or handling unit is automatically confirmed when the order line or handling unit is linked to a receipt record. To link a handling unit or order line to a receipt record, use the Receive command in the Warehouse Receipt (whinh3512m000) session. For more information, refer to Receive - easy entry.

LN enables integrations with software supporting bar code reading devices. If such configurations are in place, a receipt line is automatically created, linked to a receipt, and confirmed by scanning a handling unit label in the warehouse.

Note

You cannot change the contents of a receipt line, such as the received quantities, after it has been confirmed. Therefore, it is recommended not to select this check box if changes to receipt lines may be required.

Include in Enterprise Planning

If this check box is selected, the transactions recorded for this warehouse are taken into account in the Generate Master Planning (cprmp1202m000) session and the Generate Order Planning (cprrp1210m000) session in Enterprise Planning.

If this check box is cleared, any inventory on hand and planned warehouse transactions recorded for this warehouse will be ignored in the planning process. The inventory in this warehouse is also ignored when the ATP is checked upon entry of sales orders and quotations. You can use such a warehouse to store, for example, quarantine items, and other inventory that is not subject to Enterprise Planning.

Note
  • This check box is cleared and cannot be changed if the Warehouse Type field is set to:

    • Project
    • Service Customer Owned
    • Service Reject
    • Consignment (Owned)
  • If you change this check box from cleared to selected, the transactions recorded for this warehouse are included in the next regenerative run. A net-change run does not take this warehouse's transactions into account, because LN does not select the Net Change check box.
  • Before you can clear this check box, you must first delete any existing planned order recorded for this warehouse. No plan item must use this warehouse as its default warehouse in the Items - Planning (cprpd1100m000) session or the Items - Planning Defaults (cprpd1110m000) session.
  • If you select this check box for a warehouse of type Service, the effects are:

    • The order-planning process takes the service requirements into account.
    • Planned production orders can consume the inventory in the warehouse.

    The first effect is usually intended, the second effect can be an undesired side effect. To avoid that planned production orders consume inventory in a service warehouse, you can assign the service warehouse and the production warehouse to two different clusters.

Default value

If the Warehouse Type field is Normal, Shop Floor, or Consignment (Not Owned), the check box is selected by default. If the Warehouse Type field is Service, the check box is cleared by default.

Quarantine Inventory

If this check box is selected, LN stores quarantine inventory in the warehouse. If the warehouse is location controlled, you must also specify a quarantine location. If a reject location exists, LN stores quarantined goods in the quarantine location.

The rejected goods are stored in the warehouse or in the quarantine location at the moment of rejection.

If this check box is cleared, LN removes rejected goods from inventory. As a result, the rejected goods no longer exist. The rejected goods are removed from inventory at the moment of rejection.

If the current check box is selected and rejected inventory is stored in the warehouse, the check box is read-only.

Quarantine Warehouse

The default quarantine warehouse of the current warehouse for items rejected during production.

Use Handling Units in Quarantine Inventory

If this check box is selected, you can move handling units to quarantine inventory.

To use handling units in quarantine inventory, for the relevant warehouses also select the Quarantine Inventory check box.

An occupied location is one at which inventory has been registered or at which capacity has been allocated as a result of inbound movement (advised or manually created).

Ignore Expected Decrease of Location Occupation

If this check box is selected, LN ignores the expected occupation decrease of the locations of the current warehouse when determining the available storage capacity. LN determines the storage capacity while generating inbound advice. If this check box is cleared, LN adds the expected occupation decrease to the available storage capacity when generating inbound advice.

The expected occupation decrease of a location is the quantity, weight, floor space and/or volume by which a location’s occupation is expected to be decreased based on the outbound advice generated for the location.

The expected occupation decreases when outbound advice is generated. The actual occupation decreases when the outbound advice is released or the picking list is confirmed. The expected occupation decrease is displayed in the Warehouse - Location - Capacity (whwmd3101s000) session.

Use Free (Unfixed) Locations

If this check box is selected, all locations are considered when generating inbound advice in the Generate Inbound Advice (whinh3201m000) session. If this check box is cleared, LN only takes fixed locations into consideration for advice.

Note

In the Fixed Locations (whwmd3502m000) session, you can record whether a location is a fixed or a free (that is, non-fixed) location for the item.

Allow Other Items

If this check box is selected, for every location-controlled warehouse you can define a default value in the Allow Other Items field in the Warehouse - Locations (whwmd3500m000) session.

You can define a fixed location for an item in the Fixed Locations (whwmd3502m000) session. A fixed location can be a multi-item location with different items and for each item, the location is defined as fixed location. The fixed locations are used for inbound advice and replenishment location matrix.

When an inbound advice is generated, LN checks for a fixed location for the item:

  • If found, LN generates an inbound advice from receiving location to the fixed location.
  • If not found, LN generates an inbound advice from receiving location to a free (non-fixed) location.
Note
  • LN defaults the value only when you define a multi-item location as a fixed location for an item in the Fixed Locations (whwmd3502m000) session.
  • LN allows you to generate an inbound advice to a fixed multi-item location which is not defined as a fixed location for the item.

Shipment Handling Unit Mask

The mask that is used to generate a code for a handling unit to be shipped.

Shipment Handling Unit Mask according to SSCC Standard

If this check box is selected, the outbound handling unit mask is according to the serial-shipping container code (SSCC) standards.

An SSCC consists of 18 digits which are subdivided in the following way:

  • Position 1 : packaging indicator (usually 3)
  • Position 2-8 : company prefix number (according to EAN standards)
  • Position 9-17: serial number (allocated by the company coding the unit)
  • Position 18 : check digit (according to EAN standards)

According to the above mentioned subdivision, you can create a mask for SSCC with the following mask segments:

  • Segment 1: segment type = Alphanumeric and segment length = 1
  • Segment 2: segment type = Alphanumeric and segment length = 7
  • Segment 3: segment type = Sequence and segment length = 9

Segment 4, check digit, with segment type Alphanumeric and segment length 1 is not modeled by the user. LN checks if the mask has 17 positions, and adds the 18th digit when creating a handling unit identification code.

You can create masks in the Masks (tcibd4102m000) session. You can create mask segments in the Mask Segment (tcibd4103s000) session.

Shipments
Generate Shipments
Shipment through Warehouse

Items issued from the current warehouse are shipped from the warehouse selected in this field.

The warehouse selected in this field is the main warehouse of the current warehouse. The current warehouse is a sub warehouse of the selected main warehouse.

Note
  • Warehouses that are themselves linked to a main warehouse are unavailable.
  • This field is unavailable if the current warehouse is defined as a main warehouse for one or more other warehouses.
  • This field is only available for warehouses of type Normal.

If the same main warehouse is also selected for other sub warehouses, the items issued from these warehouses are shipped from the main warehouse. The shipment lines created for the issued items can be consolidated into one shipment.

Generate Shipments

This field determines the way the time interval of a shipment is set when a new shipment is created. The shipment's time interval is the time between the dates and times in the Shipment Date Interval field and the Shipment Date To field in the Shipments (whinh4130m000) session.

Based on the time interval:

  • LN automatically adds outbound-order lines to the shipment.
  • You can manually add outbound-order lines to the shipment.

When shipments are generated, LN determines the default values for the Shipment Date Interval and Shipment Date To fields based on the value of the current field.

Within Time IntervalShipment Date From = Shipment Creation Date - Minimum Shipment Interval (in hours or calendar days)Shipment Date To = Shipment Creation Date + Maximum Shipment Interval (in hours or calendar days)

 

Within Time Interval

The Within Time Interval option is unavailable for financial warehouses.

If the Unique Shipment Reference per Shipment criteria is selected in the Warehousing Order Types (whinh0110m000) session, the shipment interval is set based on the earliest planned delivery date and the latest planned delivery date of the corresponding outbound order lines, which contain the unique reference. This criteria overrules all the other criteria, including the shipment interval.

You can add shipment lines for the same customer to a shipment that already exists on a staging location if the status of the shipment is not Frozen or Confirmed.

If the time interval is expressed in calendar days, the shipment dates must be rounded off to entire calendar days, starting at 00:00:00 AM and ending at 23:59:59 PM.

Note

This field is unavailable if a main warehouse is selected for the current warehouse in the Shipment through Warehouse field. The values specified for the main warehouse apply to the current warehouse. For more information, refer to Multiwarehouse shipments.

Add Orders Based On

The shipment selection criteria based on which the new shipments are linked to already existing shipments. When new orders are picked, LN must determine if the orders fall within the shipment interval. You can set the criteria based on which the shipment interval can be matched against the planned delivery date of the order or against the time of picking of the order. The orders that fall within this shipment interval can be added to an existing shipment.

You can select from the following available criteria:

  • Time of Picking

    If the time when the picking list is confirmed falls within the shipment interval, the order line is linked to the existing shipment. Otherwise, a new shipment is created.

  • Planned Delivery Date

    If the planned delivery date falls within the shipment interval, the order line is linked to the existing shipment. Otherwise, a new shipment is created.

Note
  • The field is available if the Within Time Interval option is selected.

Update Shipping Material Account during
Update Shipping Material Account during

The field determines the stage in the supply process at which the packaging-item related transactions are updated in the shipping material accounts by LN in case of a logistical service provider (LSP) scenario. The field is enabled only for VMI warehouses in which warehouse management is not carried out by own company. The packaging-item related transactions can be updated by LN at the following points in the process:

  • Shipment to VMI Warehouse

    The shipping material account must be updated during shipment of (packaging) items from the normal warehouse to the VMI warehouse.

  • Consumption by Customer

    The shipping material account must be updated during shipment of (packaging) items from the VMI warehouse (Logistical Service Provider (LSP) warehouse) to the customer/OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer).

  • Not Applicable

    LN assigns this value for warehouses in which the own company is carrying out inventory management. To record the packaging item transactions, you must select the Extended Packaging Item Registration check box in the Warehouse Master Data Parameters (whwmd0100s000) session.

This field is unavailable if a main warehouse is selected for the current warehouse in the Shipment through Warehouse field. The values specified for the main warehouse apply to the current warehouse. For more information, refer to Multiwarehouse shipments.

Shipment Building
Single Picking Mission per Shipment

If this check box is selected, LN generates a separate shipment for each new picking mission if no suitable existing shipment can be found.

Note

The Single Picking Mission per Shipment option:

  • Does not apply in case of financial warehouse.

  • Does not apply in case of composing a shipment or load.

Single load for the same Ship-from Address, Carrier and Route

The shipment building engine combines multiple shipments into the same load in case the Ship-from Address, the Carrier, and the Route on these shipments are identical. This implies that no new loads are created in case the ship-to address of the (additional) shipment differs.

Note

In case the Unique Shipment Reference per Shipment criteria is selected in the Warehousing Order Types (whinh0110m000) session, the shipment interval is set based on the earliest planned delivery date and the latest planned delivery date of the corresponding outbound order lines (containing the unique reference). This criteria overrules all the other criteria, including the Single Picking Mission per Shipment, because it cannot create multiple shipments with the same shipment reference.
