Sample Questions


1. The outbound delivery plant for each item is defined in the order. The system can
automatically determine the
outbound delivery plant. Identity the highest priority outbound delivery plant in descending priority
order?

a) Outbound delivery plant defined in material master, Outbound delivery plant defined in ship-to
party master
record, Outbound delivery plant defined in Customer material information master record

b) Outbound delivery plant defined in ship-to party master record, Outbound delivery plant
defined in Customer
material information master record, Outbound delivery plant defined in material master

c) Outbound delivery plant defined in Customer material information master record, Outbound
delivery plant defined
in ship-to party master record, Outbound delivery plant defined in material master

d) Outbound delivery plant defined in Customer material information master record, Outbound
delivery plant defined
in ship-to party master record, Outbound delivery plant defined in material master


Answer: d

Explanation:
1. The system locates a customer material information master record and an outbound delivery
plant is defined
there, this plant is proposed with the highest priority for the order item.

2. If no customer information master record exists or if no plant is maintained there, the system
determines the
outbound delivery plant from the ship-to-party master record.

3. If no plant is maintained in the ship-to-party master record either, the system accesses the
material master record.




The responsible shipping point is determined for each order item. The system automatically
proposes a shipping point
that you can change within given limits.

The shipping point depends on the following criteria:

1. The delivering plant that is determined for each order item (from the customer-material info
record, the ship-to-
party record, or the material master record).

2. The shipping requirements (for example, express) contained in the Shipping
Conditions field

3. The required loading equipment contained in the Loading Group field in the material
master.

The shipping condition is proposed from the sales document type if a shipping condition has been
assigned to it. If not,
the shipping condition is proposed from the master record of the sold-to-party.

An outbound delivery is always issued from one shipping point only. The shipping point cannot be
changed in the
outbound delivery. When an order processed for delivery by the shipping point, the system only
copies into the
outbound delivery those order items that are defined for this shipping point.

Order items with different shipping points are therefore not copied into the same outbound delivery.



2. What happens when no storage location for picking is specified in the order item? (more than
one option is
correct)

a) The system determines the storage location when it creates the outbound delivery and copies
it into the delivery
item.
b) The storage location entered in the order item is used in the outbound delivery
c) The system determines the storage location from plant
d) The storage location entered in the customer master is considered


Answer: a & b

Explanation:
If no storage location for picking is specified in the order item, the system determines the storage
location when it creates
the outbound delivery and copies it into the delivery item. Otherwise, the storage location entered in
the order item is
used in the outbound delivery.

The system determines the picking location bases on a rule defined in the delivery type. The
following rules are shipped
in the standard system:

MALA: The picking location is determined based on the shipping point, the delivering plant, and the
materials storage
condition defined in the material master.

RETA and MARA: These rules are mainly used in trade scenarios.
You can also use the customer exit in SAP enhancement V02V0002 to implement storage location
determination. The
picking location search is activated for each delivery item category.


Determining the Picking Location



3. What is the goods movement status of the outbound delivery after a goods issue has been
cancelled?

a) Cancelled
b) Restarted
c) Not yet started
d) Reversed - sign


Answer: c

Explanation:
If goods issue for an outbound delivery is canceled, the goods issue posting is reset. The system
copies the quantities
and values from the original goods issue document and carries out an inventory posting based on
these quantities and
values with a reversed +/- sign.

If you cancel goods issue, this affects the entire outbound delivery. The cancellation document
created during
cancellation is entered into the document flow for the outbound delivery.

After goods issue has been canceled, the goods movement status of the outbound delivery is reset
to Not yet
started. This allows you to further process the outbound delivery as usual. The delivery
requirements are also
recreated. Canceling goods issue comprises two steps if the outbound delivery has been fully or
partially billed. In this
case you must first cancel the billing document. Then you can cancel goods issue.

For each movement type in Inventory Management, you must define a reversal movement type in
Customizing. No
additional settings are required for the movement types used for goods issue posting in the standard
system.






4. You must always specify a batch before goods are issued. What is the solution if the delivery
quantities of an item
are to be taken from different batches? (more than one option is correct)

a) In Ware house Management
b) Manually in the batch split screen of the delivery item
c) Using automatic batch determination when creating the outbound delivery
d) Manually in the outbound delivery


Answer: a, b & c

Explanation:
You can specify a batch in the relevant detail screen for materials handled in batches (whether or
not a material is
handled in batches is indicated in the material master record in the Storage 1 and Purchasing
screens). When
delivering a sales order, this batch is copied to the outbound delivery. You cannot change it there.

If a batch has not been specified in the sales order, you can enter in the picking overview screen of
the outbound
delivery. You must specify a batch before goods are issued.

You have to use the batch split function if the delivery quantities of an item are to be taken from
different batches. You
carry out batch split as follows:

1. Manually in the batch split screen of the delivery item.
2. Using automatic batch determination when creating the outbound delivery (this function must
first be activated in
the delivery item category.
3. Through manually triggered batch determination in the batch split screen
4. In Warehouse Management





You can assign a unique serial number to each material. This allows you to monitor goods
movement for individual
materials; for example, when selling materials to a customer. Using serial numbers you can also
manage the
maintenance of individual materials more easily in the system, if equipment master record exists for
these materials. To
use serial numbers, enter serial number profiles in the master for the relevant materials. Serial
numbers are usually
specified in the delivery item. However, you can also define them in the order.

You can also have serial numbers assigned automatically by the system. You must specify all
serial numbers before
posting goods issue.





5. What is the requirement for the Purchase order items that are included when the inbound
delivery is created?

a) They should have material control key
b) They should have confirmation control key
c) Planned confirmation key
d) Order item confirmation key


Answer: b

Explanation:
Inbound deliveries can be created with reference to purchase orders. You can do this using several
purchase orders,
entire purchase orders, or just partial quantities of purchase order items. The inbound delivery then
serves as the basis
for further activities, such as transfer order creation, packing, and goods receipt posting. Inbound
shipments are planned
on the basis of inbound deliveries.






Purchase order items that are to be included when the inbound delivery is created must have
a confirmation control
key. The confirmation control key governs whether confirmations are relevant for goods receipt or
materials planning. If
a material document is to be created when the goods receipt posting for the inbound delivery is
carried out, then the
goods receipt assignment must be defined in the confirmation control.






6. Movements involving the Inventory Management system use storage areas that are defined
as storage types in
the Warehouse Management system and as storage locations in the IM system. The goods receipt
for a purchase order
is posted first in Inventory Management and the goods are then brought into the warehouse via a
storage area, the
goods receipt area. What are these storage areas called?

a) Storage sections
b) Interim storage area
c) Putaway
d) One storage


Answer: b

Explanation:
The interim storage area plays a special role and can be generally be recognized at first glance in
the standard system
by their key ( which starts with a 9). These storage areas form a sort of bridge to Inventory
Management. Good receipt
area and goods issue area are typical examples of interim storage areas.

An exception to this convention is the interim storage area 100, which is used to connect Warehouse
Management to
Production Control via the WW-PP interface. Every goods movement that affects both Warehouse
Management an
Inventory Management is processed using an interim storage area. An everyday example is a goods
receipt for a
purchase order, which is posted first in Inventory Management.

The goods are then brought into Warehouse Management via an interim storage area, the goods
receipt area. A master
record is assigned to each storage type in Customizing. This is where you make the settings to
control goods receipt and
goods issue processes for putaway and removal from storage.


Interim Storage Areas


7. Where can we find exact whereabouts of a material quantity in the warehouse?

a) Warehouse bins
b) Storage bins
c) Storage Sections
d) Bin Sort Locations


Answer: b

Explanation:
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.

Storage bins are always created within a storage section. You can also assign a picking area and
where necessary, a
fire-containment section for a hazardous goods management. Every storage bin is uniquely
identified by coordinates in
the storage type. Up to 10 characters are available for constructing the storage bin coordinates. You
can use
alphanumeric characters and a selection of other characters (such as hypens ) for the coordinates.

Storage bins can also be assigned to a storage bin type. Storage bin types are optional categories
that you define freely
in Customizing for Warehouse Management in order to roughly specify the dimensions of you
storage bins.
Storage bin types are particularly useful if storage bins of a particular storage type or storage section
within storage type
have different dimension.

Storage Bin Types


The system can use the storage bin types in the storage unit type check to determine whether the
load carriers intended
for the current putaway activity are suitable for the storage bin that was determined by the system,
based on the
Customizing settings or information that was entered manually by the user.

In Customizing, storage bin types (groups of storage bins) are assigned to groups of (permitted) load
carriers (storage
unit types) for this purpose.

You can also make optional entries for the maximum weight a storage bin can hold and its total
capacity. These entries
are only taken into account by the system if the capacity check has been activated at storage type
level with the
corresponding method.

If a storage bin has stock, this stock is displayed in detail in the storage bin master data record. You
can also tell from
the master record whether the storage bin inventory has already been counted in the current fiscal
year, and see the
results of the count.

You can block a storage bin for a putaway and/or stock removal directly from its master record.
However, if you want to
block a large number of storage bins, you can use a special transaction, Block/Unblock Several
Storage Bins
Simultaneously (transaction code LS06). The system cannot access blocked storage bins during
putaway, stock
removal, and posting change activities.





8. Some kinds of material; for example, certain fluids are not suited to interim storage in a goods
receipt area. They
are taken directly to the destination storage bin when they arrive (for example, in a road tanker). In
this case, the goods
receipt posting in the Inventory Management should not trigger the creation of transfer
requirement. How can we set
this?

a) Special Material Indicator
b) Bin putaway indicator
c) Special movement indicator
d) Special Storage indicator


Answer: c

Explanation:
The main purpose of special movement indicator is to deal with selected materials differently from
the majority of
materials during putaway, stock removal, or stock transfer. However, you can also set the indicator
independently of the
material for individual Inventory Management posting activities to control the process flow in the
warehouse in a special
way. Special treatment could include: for example, transfer order creation or putaway in a particular
storage type. The
indicator is always used to allow exceptions to the rule without having to enter the details manually.

The system steers a certain material toward its own goods receipt area during a goods receipt
posting for a purchase
order. With the help of the special movement indicator, which you either store in the material master
record or enter
during the goods receipt posting, the system determines a different Warehouse Management
movement type than the
one defined for the standard process. The movement type for this special processing is assigned to
a different interim
storage area than the standard movement type.

The special movement indicator can also cause immediate transfer order creation for certain
materials or for individual
activities. To do this, you add an entry with the special movement indicator in the table linking the
reference movement
type and the Warehouse Management movement. There is a description of this procedure later in
the lesson.



9. Sometimes a customer cancels an order at the last minute or wants to postpone the delivery
until a much later
time than planned. If the goods have already been picked and taken to the goods issue area, they
have to be returned
to storage. What is the transaction available and what are its functions?
a) Transaction LT0G
b) Transaction LTG1
c) You can return an entire delivery quantity to storage
d) You can return the quantity from individual transfer order items


Answer: a, c & d

Explanation:
We can use transaction LT0G which makes this easier. You can decide whether you want to return
an entire delivery
quantity to storage or only the quantity from individual transfer order items.


Return Transfer for Outbound Delivery






Regardless of whether you want to return all or some of the picked materials to storage, you can
choose between the
following options:

1. Return transfer of the picked quant to the picking bin
2. Putaway in another storage bin, possibly in another storage type

You can only put away the materials in another storage bin interactively (in the foreground) or let the
system do it (in the
background). If you choose background processing, the system searches for a storage type
according the settings for
the storage type search, and searches for a storge bin according to the putaway strategy that is valid
for the storage
type. If an error occurs, the system creates a log.



10. What are the transactions available to create a transfer order for moving partial stocks within
a warehouse
number? (more than one option is correct)

a) LT01
b) LT10
c) LT02
d) LT20


Answer: a & b

Explanation:
Two transactions are available to create a transfer order for moving partial stocks within a
warehouse number:

1. Create Transfer Order without Source Object (transaction code LT01)
2. Create Transfer Order from Stock List (transaction code LT10)

With the create transfer object without source object transaction, you can only move the stock from
one storage bin. If
you want to move the stock from entire storage section or picking sections in a storage type, or even
all of the stock in a
storage type, you should use the transaction Create Transfer Order from Stock List (RSL10034). In
this program, you
can select the quants you want to move and then enter the destination data. The system creates a
separate transfer
order for each quant.


Transfer order










You can use an inbound electronic data interchange (EDI) shipping notification from your vendor to
create an inbound
delivery. The message type for this is DESADV. You can create a delivery manually with reference
to a particular order.
You can use collective processing to deliver goods for all purchase orders that are due to be
shipped. In this case, the
system automatically creates multiple inbound deliveries. This can be done either online or in the
background.
