LSC warehouse and package management

Purpose

This page describes operational warehouse control in LSC with focus on package management and package-based movement activities.

Core principle

In LSC warehouse processing, not only quantities but concrete package units with status, content, and location are controlled.

Package management

Typical operational actions:

• create empty package,
• repack package content,
• change assignment,
• correct fill quantity,
• assign RFLT-ID.

Business rules

• Repacking only with business-compatible content.
• Structure changes only with plausible target hierarchy.
• If cause-code requirement is active, cause code must be captured.

Package activities

Activities control the physical process between source and destination.

Typical types:

• Warehouse to QA
• Warehouse to shipment
• Warehouse to production
• Movement

Key functions:

• Start activity
• Register activity
• Register activities with same origin
• Swap package (in allowed context)

Empties and special movements

For empties and special cases, dedicated posting paths may be required depending on location and master-data setup. Validate and document these flows per location.

Checkpoints

• clear open activities daily,
• align bin logic with physical process,
• detect blocked packages before downstream steps,
• document correction actions with clear reason.
