Predefined kanban signals

Predefined kanban signals are manually entered without using a mask.

You can implement the use of predefined kanban signals by logistic company or by site.

If the use of predefined kanban signals is implemented, these rules apply:

  • You cannot use masks to define the layout of kanban signals.
  • Kanban signals cannot be created automatically.
  • In the Kanban Signals (whwmd2111m000) session, the Add Signaloption is unavailable. You must click New in the toolbar and manually enter a new signal in the Kanban Signal ID field.
  • In the Generate Orders (Kanban) (whinh2200m000) session, you cannot specify a new kanban signal, you must select existing kanban signals with the In Stockstatus.
  • If you increase the number of kanban signals in the Number of Signals field in the Item Data by Warehouse (whwmd2110s000) session, no new kanban signals are generated. Only the inactive signals that are present are activated.
