Fixed bin (F)

Bin from the material master WH2 on storage type level


Near picking bin (K)

Near the fixed bin


Next empty bin (L)

The first empty bin faced (random storage)


Addition to existing stock (I)

Where material already exists


Storage unit type (P)

Different kind of materials into different storage units


Open storage (C)

First available storage bin in the storage section


Bulk storage (B)

Customer specific

13

Picking strategies = From where the material is removed by default

1. Partial quantities first (A)


Number of storage units with partial quantity reduced
2. Large/Small quantity (M)
Large qtys from high rack, small qtys from fixed bin
Cascadable through quantity rounding
3. Picking from fixed bins (F)
Fixed bin from material master even though it would be
empty
4. Shelf life expiration date (H)
Fewest day remaining before expiration date

Fixed bin replenishment

Fixed bin defined in material master


Control limits set in material master
System is checking control limits
System creates transfer requirements with background program to maintain appropriate
stock level
RLAUTA10 creates transfer orders from transfer requirements

Line replenishment and reel verification

Production backflushing components from line buffers


Fixed bins for materials in the line buffers
IHUB is feeding line buffers with fix bin replenishments
Reel verification is taking a reel from line buffer to the line
