Refer to the below scenario

 

Site settings 

(Refer Image 1)

 

 Reserve material (Automatic reservation) 

The material reservation has been done from the stock which doesn’t have a handling unit. 

Even though the highest priority of inventory automatic reservation is given to ‘Earliest Expiration Data’ as in the first image, the system doesn’t reserve quantity from the inventory having the earliest expiration date. 

The system reserves from the stock having no HU. 

 (Refer Image 2)

 

However, when the ‘Handling Unit Optimization’ is unchecked in the site setting, the application behaves as intended. 

Why does the system reserve from stock with no HU when the settings are as above?

Hi Kamani,

 

When the Handling Unit Optimization is active, the automatic reservation will always try to reserve parts in complete handling units first regardless of the priority setting. In other words, your expiry date rules will not apply in this case, because the system overrides the priority settings.

The Handling Unit optimization is designed in a way that is easy to pick without breaking any packed handling unit. That is why the system picks an unpacked stock. (With no HU) first.

Hope this explanation is clear.

 

Best regards,

Ushan
