I have a request from the business to create a program to automate the changing of a batch/material after a quality inspection has been completed.
It is important to note that we use SAP Public Cloud so our options are limited to exposed API’s.
The functional description is that once a material has been tested in QM, depending on the content of certain elements, the classification of the material could change (i.e.. Mixed Metals to Copper if it has a high Copper content which means we can sell it for more).
I know this can be done in the Warehouse Monitor by selecting the physical stock and using the worklist dropdown, use “Change Product or Batch”.
Since there are many steps in the process, the business wants this automated. I have figured out all the steps up to this point but I cannot find any API methods to perform the same function.
I noticed when I do the transaction online, I see a Warehouse Task is created which is NOT tied to a Warehouse Order. I’ve tried to get the details of the Warehouse Task via the Warehouse Order/Task API but it cannot find the Task. I was hoping to get the details of what was created online so I could create my own Task via the API.
I investigated all options available with the Warehouse Order/Task and Handling Unit APIs but I’ve found nothing that allows me to change the material/batch.
Does anyone know if there is an API to perform the material/batch change on an EWM Handling Unit?
