Storage location reference / change WM

attribute specific to plant storage
locations in case of multiple assignment
If multiple plant storage location combinations are assigned to one ware house and need to treat each
or some plant storage location differently from others, then it can be controlled via storage location
reference.
Ex: storage location 0051 and IB51 are assigned to one warehouse 300 and are not differentiated as
storage type level. Auto TO creation needs to activated for location 0051 and to be blocked for location
IB51, for movement type 311 (reference movement type 312).
Sol. this can be handled via storage location reference.
