Use MES-driven staging to create detailed plans for fulfilling staging requirements for a manufacturing order. The plans are represented by a document from the MES, the staging request, which is mapped to a warehouse request of the internal stock transfer type in Extended Warehouse Management (EWM).
EWM uses a staging report to check the capacity of the bin at the production supply area (PSA) and to create reasonable numbers of staging warehouse tasks. These staging warehouse tasks can be organized, for example, by applying process-oriented storage control (POSC) or waves.
The staging process is transparent from beginning to end. It's possible to see the status of the staging process in both EWM and the MES. For example, you can see whether a staging request is being planned or has already been executed, or what quantity of a component is requested, in-transit, or staged.
