Step 1: GR Posting in IM (IM收货过账)
When posting GR (movement type 101), the system checks for each PO item:
Check
Result if YES
Is plant-SLoc assigned to a warehouse number?
WM tab page appears at item level in MIGO
Is GR posted to WM-managed SLoc?
Transfer requirement is auto-generated
Stock booked to interim storage area 902 (goods receiving zone)
📌The stock in the interim storage area is represented as a quant – the smallest unit of managed stock in WM.

Stock Status During Putaway
Phase
Stock Status in WM
After GR posting (before TO)
Stock in interim storage area 902 (quant)
After TO creation (before confirm)
Stock shown as both: removal from 902 + putaway at destination
After TO confirmation
Stock in final storage bin (e.g., rack storage area)
⚠️After TO is created but before confirmation, the stock is in transit. You cannot access these stocks until the putaway process is completed (TO confirmed).
