Purpose
The order replenishment will be used in scenarios where the system will only calculate the replenishment for
materials with open warehouse request and not for other material (like planned replenishment).

Here, the replenishment will be triggered from the source bin when the existing stock in the Pick bin (from
where the delivery quantity will be picked) is less than the quantity demanded in the delivery.

Prerequisite
The material ( that needs to be replenish) must have an open warehouse request.
Have the xed bin with minimum and maximum qty set.

Con guration settings:

1) Storage type setting:
Under Fixed bin storage type for picking Bin

Keep Replenishment level as blank → STORAGE BIN LEVEL FOR FIXED BIN
Keep ‘use for rough bin determination’ check box as Blank.

Path : SPRO→ EWM → Master Data → Storage type

System will show the storage bin information that needs to be replenished along with the qty .

Note: Here, the system created two WT where rst the stock move from source storage bin to Interim
storage bin and then from Interim storage bin (IA71) to nal pick bin .You can map the ow to move the stock
directly from Source storage bin to nal Pick storage bin ( avoid LOSC).

Step 5: Go to warehouse monitor to check the warehouse task created during replenishment.

Tocde→ /n/SCWM/MON → Document→ Warehouse task

Con rm the warehouse task to move the material to destination bin (Fixed bin) and check the stock status

In case the Bin qty is greater than the qty mention in xed bin in that case we can rst bring the pallet to
Pick point and then create another HU to move the request qty to replenishment xed bin.

Stock status:

Step 6: Now con rm the delivery qty requested, since the qty is replenished to the xed storage bin from
where the order qty needs to be picked.

Go to → /n/SCWM/MON→ Outbound → Documents → Outbound delivery order

After Con rmation of open warehouse request (ODD), the xed bin left with total 280 pcs (original having
320 pcs)

Summary:
Order based replenishment (OBR) is used when we have an open warehouse request and the pick bin has
the quantity lesser then the qty demanded in outbound delivery.
OBR can be trigger either using batch job or manually.
Rough bin determination functionally is required to pick the source bin (even though th stock is not
available/su cient).
EWM checks the product master and minimum and maximum bin qty maintained , in order to execute
the replenishment .
