The SAP Warehouse Management system (WM) provides flexible, automated support in processing all goods movements and in managing stocks in your warehouse complex.
An instruction to move materials from a source storage bin to a destination storage bin in a warehouse complex at a specified time.
Storage bins In Warehouse Management, Storage bins are master data created either from the application menu or in Customizing. Based on this master data, the stock overview in Warehouse Management shows the exact whereabouts of a material quantity in the warehouse.
- LT01
- LT10
Two transactions are available to create a transfer order for moving partial stocks within a warehouse number:

SPRO->Logistics Execution->Warehouse Management ->Strategies ->Define Put away Strategies and Logistics Execution->Warehouse Management ->Strategies ->Define Stock Removal Strategies.
Warehouse structure contains a Warehouse number, Storage types, Storage sections, storage bins and finally quant.
For Rack, Open and shelf storage types the picking strategy is FIFO. Put way strategy for Rack, Open, Shelf, CRD and Fixed Bin is Next empty bin, Open storage, open storage, open storage and fixed bin respectively.
PO, Inbound Delivery, Transfer Requirement, Shipment and TO.
Control to confirm TO for Put away and Picking can be configured at Warehouse, Storage types and Movement types levels.
Each and every storage type and storage section contains a row of storage spaces which are known as storage bins in WMS. The coordinates of the storage bins can tell us the position in the warehouse where goods are stored.
Quant is the stock of any material with similiar features in one storage bin. Different batches of a material are managed by system into various different quants. Quant quantity can be increased by an addition to existing stock. The quants can only be created or deleted via goods movements.
A storage unit is a logical group of single or multiple amount of material like pallet or a container which can be managed within a warehouse as a unit that belongs together. Storage unit (SU) management in the Warehouse Management (WM) allow us to optimize warehouse capacity and control material flow with the help of storage units within the warehouse.

There are two types of Storage units :
- Homogeneous Storage units which contains only one material item

A posting change generally refers to a bookkeeping change – a change in information – about a particular material. For most posting changes, such as changing a batch number or releasing blocked stock, the goods themselves remain in the same physical location.
Reasons for Making Posting Changes Posting changes are made for several reasons.
These include:
- Releasing stock from inspection into available stock
- Converting blocked stock to inspection stock
- Designating available material as inspection stock
- Changing a Material Number
- Splitting available materials into two or more batches
- Converting special stock, such as consignment stock or returned stock, into the companys own stock
- Changing ownership of stock in the same warehouse from one plant to another

Yes, it is in the Purchase Order. One of the primary ERP modules developed by SAP, SAP SD helps manage shipping, billing, selling, and transportation of products and services of an organization. This module is basically used to store customer and product data of an organization.
