Initial Stock Transfers From IM To WM

How to take stock in warehouse?
we already have a plant and storage location which is under operational and also stock is maintained under IM. Now we have planned to go for the new warehouse creation, if we configure the warehouse settings and all. Now how to take the stock which is already there in IM to WM.  Whether do I have to create a TR or the TO directly?

Solution:

As you have already existing stocks at storage location level, so you don't need to go for any initial upload.  Now assuming that you have done all the required WM configuration to have WM functional. Here you don't need to create any TR. 

Rather you may go for direct TO creation. Your stock must be lying in the interim storage location, which you need to move the particular storage bins.
Here your interim bin would be a source and the desired bin would be your destination for entering that in to TO.

You may follow the following steps to do it:

1) Logistics - Logistics Execution - Inbound Process - Goods Receipt for Purchase Order, Order, Other Transactions - Putaway - Create Transfer Order For Material (T-CODE: LB11).

Fill in the mandatory entries like warehouse number, Material number etc. 

OR

Directly LT03 can be used with reference to the delivery.

2) Click TO in foreground.

3) Click Putaway foreground (F5).

4) Depending upon the putaway strategy the destination bin would be suggested or user need to do the manual entry.

5) Save / Post (Ctrl+S), which would give a Transfer Order (TO) number.

6) To display the TO created:
Logistics - Logistics Execution - Inbound Process - Goods Receipt for Inbound Delivery - Putaway - Display Transfer Order - Single Document (T-CODE: LT21).

The list would show red indicator against the particular TO, which means it is yet to be confirmed. 

7) To confirm the TO:
Logistics - Logistics Execution - Inbound Process - Goods Receipt for Inbound Delivery - Putaway - Confirm Transfer Order - Single Document - In One Step (T-CODE: LT12).

8) Choose Standard.

9) Select the line item and choose Confirm internally.

10) Save / Post (Ctrl+S). System issues a message for confirmation of TO.

11) To check the correctness of stock in Bin:
Logistics - Logistics Execution - Internal Whse Processes - Bins and Stock Display - Single Displays - Storage Bin (T-CODE: LS03N).

12) Enter Ware house number, Storage type and storage bin. This would give the material stock available in that particular bin.
