Create Control Cycle for WM
Application component: KANBAN
App type: SAP GUI
Description:  To carry out the material staging with EWM, the control cycle has been enhanced for production supply. You must now specify the source and the destination of the material to be staged in the control cycle.  Destination The system automatically determines the storage location and warehouse number for the destination from the production supply area for which you are creating the control cycle. If you work with embedded EWM, you can specify the destination bin directly in the control cycle. For more complex rules, you can leave the bin empty and use the navigation button Assign by Entitled/Product to edit the PSA bin assignment. You define the type of replenishment trigger with the help of the material provision indicator. You can choose between the following options: Pick part Material that is made available as components in the quantities needed according to the production order. The material must be made available in the production supply area on time and in the quantity specified in the production order.  Release order part Material needed as a component for several production orders. You request the material for several orders simultaneously. The material is likewise made available in the production supply area.  Crate part These materials are stored in crates or other standard containers and requested independently of existing production orders in the quantity defined in the control cycle.    Co-products and by-products  These materials are provided as co-products or by-products. Therefore, no explicit replenishment is triggered and no source storage location is required. The control cycle can define the destination bin.   Source In the case of an EWM control cycle, you need only specify the issuing storage location. The issuing plant is automatically stipulated by the system because the source storage location must be in the same plant as the destination storage location. The source storage location must be EWM-managed. In the case of an EWM-IM control cycle, the destination storage location is MM-IM-managed. In this case, the source is not suggested by the system. You must manually specify the source (issuing plant and issuing storage location) and the destination (receiving plant and receiving storage location).
