To get an overview of all configuration steps necessary for the selected reserved material scenario, navigate to Reservation on technician storage location, SD Reserved material, DC reserved material or MM reserved material
Specify movement types relevant for specific reserved material/unplanned consumption scenarios. The movement types are defined at the company/service order level.
Field usage in the context of reserved material scenarios
Material consumption
A relevant movement type for material consumption is determined based on the type of the material’s warehouse (idoc field ‘WAREHOUSE’). If the warehouse is a special stock, special stock type is considered as well.

* Indicated by the first character of the warehouse ID in the good receipt idoc.
** Determined based on transaction /PACG/ECM_WRHSP - Special Stock, field ‘Special Stock type’. Relevant only for Special Stock warehouses (starting with character ‘P’).
Take to own stock
A relevant movement type for stock transfer is determined based on the type of the material’s source warehouse (idoc field ‘FROMWAREHOUSE’) and/or the type of the target warehouse (idoc field ‘TOWAREHOUSE’). If the warehouse is a special stock, special stock type is considered as well.
LONG LABEL Long labels are used in view cluster service call type definition transactions (e.g. /PACG/ECM_VSCTD), in tab “Materials settings”.

Res. Mat. Text | LONG LABEL Comp. receip. to filter ResMat creation | Enter a free text to filter service order components from sending as reserved material. You have to put the same text to field "Goods Recipient" in service order component that it is sent as reserved material to cloud. |
(S4)PACG 200 SP07 ReservedDisp | LONG LABEL Res. Mat. sent only for dispatched oper | When enabled, reserved materials and batches will be sent to FSM together with service calls only if any FSM-relevant operation in that service order is dispatched (has a technician assigned). FSM-relevant means:
This helps avoid unnecessary idoc traffic. (S4)PACG 200 SP08 If reserved materials are created on activity level (field ResMat on Act in transaction /PACG/ECM_VSCTD – Service Call types definition is enabled), only the operation to which a component is assigned will be checked, not all of them. If that specific operation has no technician assigned, its reserved materials won’t be transferred to FSM. |
Dummy material | LONG LABEL Dummy mat. used if cons. mat. not found | If it's not possible to recognize a reserved material number from an inbound IDOC, it is possible to set a dummy material. A document will be posted with this dummy material, together with the quantity from the IDOC. |
Mat. determin. | If a special procedure for material document posting is needed, it is possible to insert this procedure to reserved material process (example: use material X but material Y will be posted) |
