Term: Yard Warehouse Number
Component: SCM-YL Yard Logistics
Definition: A Yard Warehouse Number in SAP Yard Logistics represents a logical warehouse entity that corresponds to a physical yard area where goods are temporarily stored, managed, and moved. It acts as an interface between the yard operations and the warehouse management system, enabling efficient tracking and control of materials within the yard.
How It’s Used: In real SAP projects, the Yard Warehouse Number is used to model and manage yard activities such as vehicle movements, container handling, and staging of goods before they enter or after they leave the main warehouse. It allows integration of yard operations with warehouse processes, ensuring visibility and control over inventory in the yard. For example, when trucks arrive at a manufacturing plant, the yard warehouse number helps track the unloading location and subsequent storage or transport steps.
