A “Pilferable” Material
which means the Material possibly requires special storage in a secure storage type/section within the warehouse.
Periodically, we may run the Slotting Process to ensure that Products are stored in the correct location in the warehouse.
The correct location means the best bins for efficient putaway and picking.
Products that are pilferable (which identifies these products as likely to be stolen) should always be stored in storage type 0020.
In the SCM NWBC,
goto Maintain Product

select Global Data
click Display
Click here, on drop-down list

Party Entitled to Dispose is an Organization unit, defined as a business partner, that is entitled to dispose of stock. Usually this is the PLANT in which the stocks are planned, and in which the ATP check is performed.
Goto Warehouse Data TAB
Enter Product Type Determination Indicator “80” (Labor Management Active)
The system uses this indicator as one of the criteria to determine a Warehouse Process Type. The use of this indicator is optional.
A Warehouse process type is used to define the activity or movement of each process in a warehouse. It deals with each warehouse process like packing, good receipt, good issue and is assigned to each warehouse task document.
Assign the following:
Putaway Control indicator PUTW
Stock Removal Control indicator PICK
press ENTER
and SAVE
You can use Putaway Control indicators to control that during putaway, specific products are put away into specific storage types/storage type groups with priority. You can also assign a storage type search sequence to the putaway control indicator. This storage type search sequence is used, for example, by slotting.
The opposite is for the Stock Removal Control indicator.
Packaging Specification is another important Master data in EWM. It is used to specify how to pack a product for putaway or for transportation.
It is “similar” to the Palletization data of the ERP WMS system but EWM extends the feature further for necessary levels of packing for a product and its related packing materials (without using HUM)
This topic is very extensive and should be dealt in a separate posts.
