• SAP Tcode: LS51 - Create Batch Search Strategy - WM

  
  Overview:
  SAP transaction code LS51 is used to create a batch search strategy in the Warehouse Management (WM) module. This search strategy is used to determine the batch number for a material when it is received or issued from the warehouse. 
  
  Functionality: 
  The LS51 transaction code allows users to define the search strategy for a material in the warehouse. This includes defining the order in which batches are searched, as well as setting up criteria for selecting batches based on their attributes. The search strategy can be used to determine which batch should be used when receiving or issuing a material from the warehouse. 
  
  Step-by-step How to Use: 
  1. Enter transaction code LS51 in the SAP command field. 
  2. Select the material for which you want to create a batch search strategy. 
  3. Select the type of search strategy you want to create (e.g., FIFO, LIFO, etc.). 
  4. Enter any additional criteria for selecting batches (e.g., expiration date, storage location, etc.). 
  5. Save your changes and activate the search strategy. 
  
  Other Recommendations: 
  It is important to note that the batch search strategy created with LS51 will only be used when receiving or issuing materials from the warehouse. It will not be used when transferring materials between storage locations within the warehouse. Additionally, it is recommended that users test their batch search strategies before using them in production environments to ensure they are working as expected.
