It is possible to individually specify per warehouse location whether receipt, reservation, or issue is allowed, so that inventory can be securely locked without blocking the entire warehouse. This article describes how to block warehouse locations for certain actions.

Within Warehouse Management, a picklist can be utilized. Available production order material lines are placed on a summary that is subsequently used to manage the warehouse process. This includes the actual removal of goods from the warehouse.

The Warehouse Management module contains the functionalities to perform a number of logistical operations. The focus here is on the material handling of production orders.

The logistical action 'Return from Production' is used to return the excess material that has been issued to a production order. Returning always results in an increase in inventory.

The advantage of a picklist is the control and oversight over the inventory situation. By not issuing material lines directly, an additional step is necessary, where it is checked whether the stock is actually available. As a result, a picklist must be reported back.
