How to set up the automatic storage type search and storage bin search?

Answer:

In OMLY T-code, select Determine Search Sequence. Then select your Warehouse Number.

The basic logic of storage type search used by system (SAP) during putaway and picking of materials are as follows:

1) First system looks the storage type ind. assigned to material master.

2) System also check whether any fixed bin assigned to material master or not.

3) Based on the above information, control goes to storage search table and it search the storage type based on following parameters:

a) System checks the material category 
b) System checks mvt type references
c) System check storage classes also
d) WPC classes also checked 
e) System also check storage type ind..

Based on the above information defined in search table, system proposed the correct storage type based on the sequence defined for putaway and picking movement.

Once the storage type is selected, then system search the correct bin according to the putaway and picking strategy defined for the storage type also system check following setting before proposing the bins.

1) Storage type linked to storage unit type

2) Storage unit type linked to storage bin type
