Disallow putaway of the Inspection Lots without Usage Decision in SAP EWM

[rahulsharma_iitr]

Hello experts,

In our warehouse, the inspection is done retaining the stock in Storage Type 9010. So there is no POSC involved.

In a typical case, where the inspection lot is accepted after the QM inspections, the process goes like this->

Goods Receipt is posted -> Inspection Lot created in 9010-> Usage Decision Posted -> EWM Follow up action triggered -> Putaway of the Quality accepted stock.

However, users can technically already create the Putaway tasks even before the Usage Decision is posted. This way we get stock which is under Quality Inspection, and is also linked to an Inspection Lot moved from 9010 to its final putaway bin. However, as the quality inspection team needs special equipment for the quality inspection, this stock needs to be brought back from the final bin - practically to the 9010 Storage Type.

So, the requirement, is -> is there a way in SAP EWM to disallow the putaway of the Inspection Lots?

Thanks!

Hi rahulsharma.iitr

"However, users can technically already create the Putaway tasks even before the Usage Decision is posted. " -> Putaway tasks are created manually ?First level- As per my understanding, you could try to restrict put away WT creation which are quality stock type by using stock type/group (only use F2) in put away strategy so stock would stay on 9010 until decision made.Kind Regards,Ajit
