Definition

Means that, for this table entry, the system will use the storage type indicator of the material currently being transferred to access the storage type search table.

Use

When storage type indicators are used for storage type search and several materials with different stock categories (such as special stock) exist, the number of entries in the storage type search table can become very large. In order to decrease the number of these entries, you can define an access strategy for the storage type search table.

First, the system attempts to read the entire table for storage type search. If a required entry cannot be found, the system then searches the access strategy table in an attempt to find a valid entry.

The following example clarifies how this works:

Storage Type Search Table
                                           --- Storage Types ---
    WhN  E/A  TypIn C  S  Class  WPC  Ref   1    2    3    4 ...
    001   E                       0    0   001  002
    001   E            K          0    0   005
    001   E     A                 0    0   002  001
    001   E         Q             0    0   003
Access Strategy Table
    WhN  CrNo TypIn  C  S  Class  WPC  Ref
    001  010         X  X
    001  020    X

For example, using the tables above, if you place a material into storage with type indicator "A" and stock category "R" (returned stock), the system finds no entry in the storage type search table. Next, the system goes to the access strategy table and looks in the first line which has no type indicators to look for stock category 'R' and special stock " " (blank). Since the system initially has no success in reading the table, it then looks in the second line for storage type indicator "A" without a stock category. The system then uses the entry found for the storage type search. In this case, the system uses the third line in the storage type search table.
