Introduction:

AS a consultant we may come across few scenarios where customer or client ask us to upload the initial stock to EWM with
multi level Handling Units with respective products and batches. As you know every consultant must have know that we
upload through /SCWM/ISU transaction but we feel some discomfort in filling up the Upload CSV file format .

In this blog I will show the format and how to fill and upload to the system.

For this we will go with one example like One HU ( nested HU) is having multiple HUs in it and that individual Hus having
the product with respective batch in it.

Nested HU - 900000100

Individual Hus in above Nested HU are - 300000100

300000200

300000300

To achieve this we have to go with following steps :
