4/9/13 Default Storage Location In Sales Order

Default Storage Location In Sales Order

Where to maintain settings if we want to make storage location appear by default at the time of creating the
sales order?

There is No storage location determination at Sales order level.. Only we can enter manually.

Storage location will be determined at Delivery level only..

System does not determine storage location at sales order level. User has to indicate it at time of creating sales order. The
storage location entered in the order item is copied into the outbound delivery. If no storage location for picking is
specified in the order item, the system determines the storage location when it creates the outbound delivery and copies it
into the delivery item. The system determines the picking location based on a MALA, RETA, MARA rule defined in the
delivery type.

This functionality is not available in the standard SAP. If you want the system to check the stock at a specific storage
location, the storage location has to be entered manually at item level or you have to go for development so that it will be
defaulted under the specific conditions specified. You have to create a Z-table and maintain the table with data under
which that specific storage location has to be determined.

A userexit has to be used so that it will default the appropriate storage location after checking the table.

Storage loction determination in Sales order is only possible via a user exit. You cannot configure storage location into
sales order: you need to use user
exit MV45AFZB USEREXIT_SOURCE_DETERMIN

or

You can use userexit_save_document

Userexit_save_document_prepare

or

The relevant forms to be used are:

USEREXIT_MOVE_FIELD_TO_VBAK -- to default in Header.

USEREXIT_MOVE_FIELD_TO_VBAP -- to default in item.

User exit: MV45AFZZ

---

Standard SAP can't determine storage location at sales order level. If required to give manually. But at deliver it'll
determine automatic.

Do the proper settings at Delivery level:

SPRO --> LOGISTICS EXECUTION --> SHIPPING --> PICKING --> DETERMINE PICKING LOCATION -->
Define Rules for Picking Location Determination.
