  • SAP Tcode: OMM5 - Storage Type Definition
    
    Overview:
    The SAP transaction code OMM5 is used to define storage types in the SAP system. It is used to create, change, and display storage types. Storage types are used to define the characteristics of a storage location, such as the type of material that can be stored in it, the size of the storage location, and the type of storage bin. 
    
    Functionality: 
    The OMM5 transaction code allows users to define storage types in the SAP system. This includes creating new storage types, changing existing storage types, and displaying existing storage types. The characteristics of a storage type can be defined, such as the type of material that can be stored in it, the size of the storage location, and the type of storage bin. 
    
    Step-by-step How to Use: 
    1. Enter transaction code OMM5 in the command field. 
    2. Enter a name for the new storage type in the “Storage Type” field. 
    3. Enter a description for the new storage type in the “Description” field. 
    4. Enter a size for the new storage type in the “Size” field. 
    5. Select a type of material that can be stored in this storage type from the “Material Type” dropdown menu. 
    6. Select a type of storage bin from the “Storage Bin Type” dropdown menu. 
    7. Click “Save” to save your changes and create your new storage type. 
    
    Other Recommendations: 
    It is important to note that when creating or changing a storage type, all fields must be filled out correctly or else an error message will appear and your changes will not be saved. Additionally, it is important to ensure that all materials stored in this storage type are compatible with each other and with the size and type of bin specified for this storage type.
