What Is Material Staging

Material staging involves transferring materials from a main storage location to a production storage location before production. In SAP, this process is called material staging. A production order is created and released, which then determines the material staging type and production storage bins. Either automatic or manual material staging can then take place, with manual requiring creating transfer requirements. A pull list is used to withdraw components from the main storage to the issue storage location, which is the production storage location, in order to control the flow of materials for in-house manufacturing. The pull list takes dependent requirements from planned orders and checks stock quantities to calculate missing parts for transfer via material staging.

What Is Material Staging

Material staging is nothing but transferring the material from your main store to
production location. Before production we have to transfer the material. In SAP it is
called material staging. It’s not necessary to use material staging EM only. You can
use this for describe also i.e. with respect to production orders.

You stage material you need for production at a certain time, in a particular quantity,
and in a particular production storage bin, via the WM-PP interface.

Process Flow:

1. You create a production order

2. Release the production order

3. The system determines the material staging type on the basis of the control cycle
and determines the production storage bins, in which the components should be staged

4. Automatic material staging is active in the standard system

You can also create transfer requirements for material staging manually.

Pull list is used to withdraw the components from Main storage location to the issue
storage location. Issue storage location is Prod. storage location.

Pull list used to control the flow of components required for in-house manufacturing.

It is assumed that the components required are already ( procured or produced ) made
available in the Main storage location and to be transferred now to production storage
location.

Pull list takes into account the dependent requirements generated from the planned
orders of the parent parts and stocks of the child component is checked at the
production storage location.

Pull list calculates the quantities of the missing parts.

The Process of executing the Pull list and getting the material is known as Material
staging.

Prerequisite for Pull list -


The issue storage location should come from the master data to the dependent
requirement which has come from the planned order. Issue storage location needs to
be maintained in BOM or Material master.

The Tcode for Pull list is MF60.
