• Key Concepts: 
  Zero Stock Check is a feature in SAP Warehouse Management (LE-WM) that allows users to check the availability of stock in a warehouse without actually reserving it. This feature is useful for planning purposes, as it allows users to determine if there is enough stock available to fulfill an order without having to reserve it. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use the Zero Stock Check feature, users must first set up the warehouse in SAP. This includes defining the storage types, storage sections, and storage bins. Once the warehouse is set up, users can then use the Zero Stock Check feature to check the availability of stock in a particular storage bin. The system will then display the quantity of stock available in that bin. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using the Zero Stock Check feature, it is important to remember that it does not actually reserve any stock. Therefore, if an order requires more stock than what is available in a particular bin, users must manually reserve the stock before it can be used.
