SAP EWM pack nested HU /Pack nested content

 There are scenarios during outbound where the Source HU is picked from the warehouse and put it in Pick HU. These Pick HU’s are the load HU that is used to carry the product/source HU from pick location and bring up to packing stations to Pack the product in Shipping HU.

In some scenarios only the Source HU is packed into Ship HU whereas the pick HU has only role to transfer the product/Pick HU to destination location and gets deleted, in other scenarios, only the content of Source HU is packed in to Ship HU whereas the Source HU and Pick HU is deleted.

In SAP EWM we have options to pick and pack the product under different scenarios like: –

1. Pick HU/Load HU is consider as Destination HU packed in Ship HU.
2. Only the source HU content will be packed under Destination/Ship HU
3. Source HU will be packed under Destination /Ship HU and Pick/Load carrier will be deleted.

In this blog we will discuss only on point -3.

The nested HU and nested content can be achieved using “Control for Pick HU concept”.

The control for Pick HU can be configured at Warehouse process type level or at storage type level. In storage type level we have an option where the warehouse process type settings (for Control HU) will be given preference over storage type. Activating the control Pick HU at WPT level is more flexible and more process oriented as compared to configuring at storage type level and make system more location dependent.

Now for scenario where the Source HU will be packed under Destination /Ship HU and Pick/Load carrier will be deleted. We will be using option as ‘BLANK.”

So, we have a source HU picked from the warehouse and while confirming we place the Source HU in to PICKHU.
