WM transfer order: confirm different batch than proposed by system

Posted on 16th Feb 2014 by admin

Hi folks,

following scenario: we have a full WM with mixed batch numbers allowed in storage type / bin. We create a transfer order with reference to an outbound delivery of a material which is handled in batches. In standard, the system proposes the batch number to be picked at the time of transfer order creation.

In real life, the bin contains many different batch numbers of the same material. So let's say the user does not want to search the bin for the batch number proposed on the transfer order, but grabs any of the items and would like to confirm the batch number he actually picked.

Now my question: Is there any way to confirm a different batch number than proposed in the transfer order? Or generally, is it possible to create a transfer order without batch number proposed and let the user decide at time of confirmation, which batch number actually was picked?

I have tried function module L_TO_CONFIRM with a batch split, but no success.

Thank you very much for your time
