Glossary中给的定义就是:

A logical grouping of one or several amounts of material that can be managed in a warehouse as a unit.

Each storage unit has a storage unit (SU) number.

那么storage unit是因什么样的业务而产生的?或者说应用了storage unit后所产生的作用是什么?
另,storage unit是在流程中哪步动作产生的?它是作为一个master data还是一个organization unit?
不好意思,问了一些初级的问题,我刚接触WM,正在学习其中的概念,我觉得概念清晰了,后续的学习能更深刻

storage unit,中文可翻译为“存储单元”,简单地讲,它可是小至一个托盘、仓储笼、零件盒,大至集装箱、容器罐。它是仓位(storage bin)下的一个细分,每个存储单元。复杂地讲,!%¥#·—……#*—#·%!
我看你英文也不错,不如你自己看HELP吧。

Purpose

Storage unit (SU) management in Warehouse Management (WM) enables you to optimize warehouse capacity and control material flow by utilizing storage units within the warehouse.

A storage unit is a logical grouping of one or several amounts of material such as a pallet or a container that can be managed within a warehouse as a unit that belongs together. Storage units can be either homogeneous (containing one material item only) or mixed (containing two or more material items).

All storage units, whether the materials are stored on standard pallets, wire baskets or other containers, are assigned an identifier — a number — which is maintained in the system as the storage unit number. Therefore, it is possible at any given time to know where each storage unit is located in the warehouse complex, the amount of material contained in it, and which operations have been processed or planned for it.

This graphic is explained in the accompanying text

When SU management is not active in a storage type, all stock is managed as separate quants at the storage bin level. With SU management, stock is managed at the pallet or storage unit level. A storage bin can have one or more storage units. Similarly, each storage unit can consist of one or more quants.

Selection Criteria

Storage unit management is generally activated in the warehouse for the following reasons:

  • Movement of mixed pallets (with more than one material) as a single unit within the warehouse
  • Identification and management of materials using storage unit numbers assigned internally or externally
  • WM can communicate with fork lift control systems via an interface without having to maintain material data in the external system.

Prerequisites

Before using storage unit management, you must first set up the default values for your warehouse. This initial configuration is accomplished using the customizing function.

For information on how to configure WM for Storage Unit Management, see the Implementation Guide (IMG) for Warehouse Management.

Note

It is only possible to deactivate SU Management in the warehouse number record if it has first been deactivated in the subordinate storage types.

Features

In addition to the capabilities already available in WM, the activation of storage unit management in your system enables you to access several functions that are specifically designed for working with storage units.

Using SU management, you can

  • Create homogeneous and mixed storage units
  • Place materials into storage using an identification (ID) point
  • Create transfer orders and confirm stock movements for storage units
  • Transfer whole storage units internally
  • Add stock to existing storage units
  • Display the contents of storage units
  • Print documents to accompany storage units
  • Plan goods issues, for example, to stage materials in replenishment storage bins in production

All storage unit management functions are fully integrated with WM.

可不可以理解为:SU是为表示若干个相同特征的Quants而产生的概念?

to baiboyd,

在什么样的场景下,不同的物料可以有相同的SU号?

to Baiboyd again,

Any ideas???

HI ,你好,我的理解是SU是个物理概念,不要考虑那么多,根据那个仁兄提供的结构图看就行了,他就是一个从大到小的存储单位的细分,就好象公斤下还有斤,斤下还有两,两下还有克。但每个存储单位的容量是有限的。

存储单位不是一般意义上的单位,比如说一单位(瓶)水等。存储单位可以理解为一个小的存储地点,每个地点都有唯一编号,比如一座楼房里的房间号。有的房间只能装一种东西,有的可以混着装。

还是翻译为“存储单元”比较贴切。

多个storage bin的组合

SU是多个Quant(份)的组合,并不是多个Bin的组合。在WM系统中,SU只能存放在一个Bin中,SU可以包含多个物料,或者同一个物料的多个批次,不过是不可以涵盖几个仓位的。
