Item Dimension and Warehouse Process Groups
You can quickly review or change an item's dimension group or warehouse process group by using the Warehouse Speed Group Maintenance program (P4690). By changing the process groups for an item, you can change which movement instruction table that you use, which can change the putaway, picking, or replenishment location that you use during inventory movements.
You can use the Warehouse Speed Group Maintenance program in interactive or batch mode. If you run a batch version of the Warehouse Speed Group Maintenance program, ensure that the batch job has completely finished processing before you run the Location Selection Driver program (R46171). If you run the Location Selection Driver program before the batch job is finished processing, the results of the process selection might be inaccurate. To determine whether the batch job is finished, review the process groups on the Speed Group Maintenance form or in the Category Codes of the Item Branch application and verify whether the process groups have changed. If they have not changed, the batch job has not finished processing.
