• The Intermediate Storage LOA, is primarily used for identification purpose in the warehouse. Since the stock in this LOA is considered for planning, system will pick stock from this LOA however system throws warning.
• This warning message indicates that the proposed Logistics Area (LOA) is not recommended for shipping.
• However, since the stock in this LOA is considered for planning, the system will not give a hard stop but provides the flexibility to confirm and proceed further.
• For this reason, the Logistics Area with Intermediate Storage usage is displayed in yellow in the Source Logistics Area value help.

• If a logistic area (LOA) is considered for planning, the system cannot restrict stock from being picked from that area. As a result, the stock in this LOA will be used by the system either for supply to production, shipping, or other processes.
• Currently there is no functionality available in the system which considers LOA for only planning but not for shipping.
• Register the requirement for this feature in the Customer Influence Forum, at https://influence.sap.com/sap/ino/#/campaign/886.
