Dear Friends,
While creating a site in WB01. Does it normally take us to customer creation after the Site data is saved?
If so what is the data to be filled for the customer ?

Hi Jove,
In SAP IS Retail, Whenever Site is created its corresponding Customer and Vendor (only for DCs) will also get created. So once you complete the Site general data, SAP will prompt for creating a customer. Please note the below points which are to be followed to create a Site-Customer.
This will create Customer for your site. Please note if you are creating a DC (depending on the Site profile you are using), it will also prompt for vendor record.
For your second query of activating a company code for material management please follow the given steps:
SPRO: Logistics - General -> Material Management -> Basic Settings -> Maintain Company Codes for Materials Management
Here, you need to maintain the company code for which you want to execute the MM processes.
Please note you also need to maintain Site parameters for Inventory management.
Let me know if you need any other information.
Regards,
Amit

Hello Amit,
While creating an article , can we give the Distribution Center or store details on the initial screen? I give the store and DC details , it gives as error in Green tick mark stating that Company code not setup for Materials Management. I am not sure of the Procedure about how to fix it. The path which you provided leads me to some page where there is no option to set it up for Materials Management.
SPRO: Logistics - General -> Material Management -> Basic Settings -> Maintain Company Codes for Materials Management.
Another Query ! Base unit is EA on Basic Data view but as m following IRT310 Course, the question is to put the alternative UOM as cartons and pallets with different set of Values. What is this about? For what purpose do we put the unit of Order as Carton?

Hi Jove,
Depending upon the business scenario we will use different unit of measure..for example when we create purchase order,Vendor will agreed to deliver the article in Cartoon or in boxes..so in the article master record under the AUoM, we will maintain the ordering unit as carton specifying one CAR is equal to 100EA or 50 PC..The same will be maintained for the delivering unit..The same order unit of measure will get updated the purchase info record that maintained for the vendor-rticle.

Thank you for your reply. Trying to understand it further..So here is an example. Is this Correct and what does each AuoM mean here?

Hi Jove,
Your screenshot is correct...
Here the base unit of measure is EACH'es
The order unit of measure is CARTON...ie..equal to 24 EACH'es
You have maintained PAL..but not assigned any variable to it...
Here your distribution unit and sales unit is maintained as EACH'es
You can maintain different unit of measure as per the customer requirement.
Thanks

What do we mean by 'You have maintained PAL..but not assigned any variable to it...'? Variable . Does that mean to choose from those radio buttons?
Thanks

Hi Jovit,
From your screenshot, it means that the AUoM PAL can either be marked as the distribution unit of measure or sales unit of measure,
Thanks
