Define Default Sales Facility and Warehouse

This document explains how you define a default sales warehouse and a default sales facility for a procurement group or an item. This setting is optional.

Outcome

You have created a default facility and warehouse. These are proposed in 'Delivery Schedule. Connect Items' (RSS101).

Default warehouse and facility are used when you create a delivery schedule and connect items to this delivery schedule. These items are then issued from default facility/warehouse.

Default facility is stored in the ORSFAC table.

If you do not define a default facility, the facility in (RSS101) will be retrieved from:

  • 'Settings - Batch Orders' (OIS278)
  • 'Customer. Open' (CRS610)
  • 'Item. Connect Warehouse' (MMS002)

Default warehouse is stored in the MITNWH table.

If you do not define a default warehouse, the warehouse in (RSS101) will be retrieved from:

  • 'Customer. Open' (CRS610)
  • 'Item. Connect Facility' (MMS003) (Main warehouse)
  • 'User. Access per Company Division' (MNS151)
  • 'User. Open' (MNS150)
  • 'Company. Connect Division' (MNS100)
