Smart SAP Assistant

• Key Concepts: 
  Transfer order split is a feature in SAP Warehouse Management (LE-WM) that allows users to split a transfer order into multiple parts. This feature is useful when the user needs to move a large quantity of material from one storage location to another, but the target storage location does not have enough capacity to accommodate the entire quantity. By splitting the transfer order, the user can move the material in smaller batches and thus reduce the risk of overloading the target storage location. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use transfer order split, the user must first create a transfer order in LE-WM. Once the transfer order is created, the user can select the “Split” option from the menu. This will open a dialog box where the user can specify how many parts they want to split the transfer order into. The user can then specify how much material should be moved in each part of the transfer order. Once all of this information is entered, the user can save and activate the split transfer order. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using transfer order split, it is important to ensure that all parts of the split transfer order are activated at the same time. This will ensure that all parts of the transfer order are processed in a timely manner and that no material is left behind in one storage location while other parts of the transfer order are being processed.
