  • What causes this issue?

    Within the respective document, an item was entered that contains the
    material &V1& and points to plant &V4&.
    From the combination plant / storage location, the system has determined
    the warehouse number &V2&.

    For this warehouse, the Customizing setting for Warehouse Management is
    "Standard management of bin stocks".

    This means that the planned picking area is derived from the storage
    data for the material (Warehouse Management view in the material
    master).
    The required planned storage type is also derived from the storage data
    for the material. For the combination material / warehouse number &V1&/
    &V2&, planned storage type &V3& was found.
    For the combination material / warehouse number / storage type, the
    system attempted to read the storage data to derive the planned picking
    area. However, no entry was found in the respective table.

    System Response

    The workload data is updated with the initial value for the feature
    'planned picking area'.

    How to fix this error?

    If the combination &V1&/&V2&/&V3& is appropriate from the Warehouse
    Management view and the rough workload forecast, you should create the
    respective segment for Warehouse Management using the master data
    maintenance.
