Create Posting Changes
Application component: Warehouse Order Processing
App type: SAP GUI
Key features:  Delivery Documents for Posting Changes You can plan a posting change by creating an outbound delivery in Logistics Execution or a posting change delivery in EWM. For posting change deliveries, you cannot trigger the goods movement manually. The system always posts the posting change automatically, either when the posting change delivery is created or when the warehouse task is confirmed. For more information about posting change deliveries in EWM, see Warehouse Request of the Posting Change Type.  Goods Movement Document for Posting Changes A goods movement document is a document similar to a warehouse task except that it always contains two items for each posting change – one item for the source stock key and one item for the destination stock key. You can display goods movement documents for posting changes in the warehouse management monitor under Documents  Warehouse Task or Documents  All Movements for Product. Goods movement documents have the warehouse process category 7. Note The warehouse management monitor node Documents  Posting Changes displays the posting change deliveries. It does not display the goods movement documents for posting changes.  Posting Change with Immediate Goods Movement If a quant is not moved to another bin for the posting change, the posting change can be posted immediately without creating a warehouse task. However this is only possible if the system is able to find the quant. For example, the system cannot find a quant under the following conditions:   The bin is not specified in the posting change delivery and several quants exist   The available quantities are managed at bin level or are batch-neutral   If the system cannot find the quant, you must create warehouse tasks for the posting change.  Mixed Storage after a Posting Change If a posting change with immediate goods movement affects only a partial quantity in a handling unit (HU) or in a bin, it results in two quants on the bin or on the HU. This means that you must allow mixed storage in the storage type. If you do not want to store different products or different batches on the same bin or HU, you can allow a more specific mixed storage like the mixed storage of different stock types of the same product or batch. It you do not allow mixed storage on a storage type, you must create warehouse tasks for the posting change and post the posting change when the warehouse task is confirmed, that is, goods movement after warehouse task.  Posting Change with Warehouse Task You can create warehouse tasks to move the changed stock to another bin. For example, you use different storage types for unrestricted-use stock and quality-inspection stock or for vendor-consignment stock and own stock. In this case, the system creates the following documents:   A warehouse task to move the stock   A goods movement document for the posting change   Depending on the process type settings, the goods movement for the posting change can be posted before or after the warehouse task. Note The system cannot post a posting change after the warehouse task for warehouse tasks created without posting change deliveries with transaction Create Posting Changes. In this transaction, the system always posts the posting change first.For posting change deliveries, the posting change can be posted before or after the warehouse task. However the system can post a posting change before the warehouse task only if the system can find the stock. If the system cannot find the stock, you must create the warehouse tasks first. If you use warehouse tasks to execute posting changes, all warehouse task functions, such as the use of warehouse orders, radio frequency, or warehouse task printing, are available.  Automatic Posting Change upon Warehouse Task Confirmation In some EWM processes, the system automatically triggers posting changes when a warehouse task is confirmed. In this case, the posting change always takes place after the warehouse task is confirmed.  Business Add-Ins for Posting Change You can implement the following Business Add-Ins (BAdIs):   BAdI: Stock Checks for Goods Movement (/SCWM/EX_CORE_GM_STOCK) Allows you to prevent some posting changes in your warehouse, for example, you do not allow a change of product number in your warehouse.   Stock Type Determination for Transfer Postings (/SCWM/EX_CORE_GM_CAT) Allows you to determine the destination stock type in the case of automatic posting change upon warehouse task confirmation.   Delivery-specific BAdIs that allow you to implement checks for warehouse requests of the posting change type
