LT10 — List of Transfer Requirements in Classic WM

LT10 is the classic Warehouse Management report that lists open Transfer Requirements (TRs) for a warehouse number, filtered by movement type, plant, storage type or requirement type. It is a monitoring and selection tool, not a creation transaction: TOs are still generated separately via LT01, LT04, LT06 or LT09, or from within the LT10 list itself as a follow-on action.

This page covers LT10, the classic WM transaction for displaying open Transfer Requirements before they are converted into Transfer Orders. It focuses on the selection logic, the header and item tables written by TR creation, and the diagnostic checks for TRs that appear stuck, missing, or already converted but still showing as open.

Purpose

LT10 opens a selection screen and produces a list of Transfer Requirements (TRs) that exist for a warehouse number, restricted by criteria such as TR number, movement type, plant, storage location, or requirement type. The structural fact that causes most confusion: LT10 does not create anything. A TR is a demand document generated upstream by a delivery, a production order, or a manual posting; LT10 only surfaces TRs that already exist in the system and shows whether a Transfer Order has been created against them yet. The actual TO creation, when triggered from this list, calls the same underlying logic as LT01/LT04/LT06/LT09 - LT10 is the worklist, not the engine.

When it is used

LT10 is used when TRs are piling up without corresponding TOs - typically flagged by a warehouse supervisor checking backlog before a shift, or by a consultant investigating why stock movements requested by production or sales are not physically happening in the warehouse. It sits between demand creation (delivery save, production order release, inventory posting) and physical execution (TO confirmation). Consultants reach for LT10 instead of LT22 (TO list) specifically when the question is 'why hasn't this requirement turned into a task yet', not 'where is this task now'. There is no Fiori equivalent in classic WM; the transaction is used as-is on both ECC and decentralized WM on S/4HANA.

How to use it in practice

  • Call LT10 and enter the warehouse number - this field is mandatory and the single most common source of an empty or wrong result set
  • Restrict by TR number range, movement type, plant, storage location or requirement type as needed for the investigation
  • Choose the status filter - open TRs only, or all TRs including those already converted to a TO
  • Execute and review the list; each line shows the TR, its movement type, and whether a TO reference exists
  • From the list, select one or more lines and use the menu function to trigger TO creation, or double-click to drill into the TR detail for line-item inspection

Key data objects

  • LTBK - Transfer Requirement header: warehouse number, TR number, movement type, requirement type, status of whether a TO has been created
  • LTBP - Transfer Requirement item: material, quantity, storage type, plant/storage location that generated the requirement line
  • LTAK - Transfer Order header, populated only once a TO has been created against the TR shown in the list
  • LTAP - Transfer Order item, holds the source/destination bin data once the TR line has been converted

How to prove it in the data

In SE16 or SE16N, open the Transfer Requirement header table for the warehouse number and TR number in question and check the status indicator that records whether a TO has already been created for it. Cross-reference by TR number against the Transfer Order header table to see if a TO number is populated; if it is not, the TR is genuinely open and the gap is upstream (delivery, production order, or manual TR not yet worked) rather than in LT10 itself. If a TO number is populated but LT10 still lists the TR as open, the selection filter on the report, not the data, is the problem.

ECC vs S/4HANA

Where S/4HANA still runs classic or decentralized Warehouse Management, LT10 behaves the same as on ECC with no functional change. In an embedded EWM implementation, the Transfer Requirement concept as used by classic WM does not carry over in the same form - EWM works with warehouse requests and warehouse tasks generated directly from the outbound/inbound delivery, and LT10 is not part of that stack. There is no direct Fiori replacement for LT10; the nearest EWM equivalent is the warehouse task and warehouse request monitoring apps, which are structurally different objects, not a one-to-one substitute.

Common pitfalls and how to diagnose them

  • Empty or wrong result set - the warehouse number field was left blank, wrong, or the selection range on TR number/movement type is too narrow; always widen the selection before concluding a TR does not exist
  • TR shows as open but a TO already exists - the status filter was set to display all TRs rather than open only, or the TO was created but not yet confirmed and the report's open/closed logic did not update as expected; check the TO header status directly rather than trusting the list filter
  • TR never appears at all - the upstream document (delivery, production order) either was never saved with a WM-relevant movement type, or the movement type is not configured to generate a TR for that storage type; this is a configuration problem in movement type control, not an LT10 problem, and belongs with the WM configuration consultant
  • TO creation from the list fails or produces partial results - capacity check failures, blocked storage bins, or missing storage type control settings stop TO creation silently; read the application log or the return messages from the batch creation function rather than re-running the same selection expecting a different result
  • User sees fewer TRs than expected - authorization restricting the user to specific storage types or plants hides TRs that genuinely exist; confirm with a broader-authorization user before treating this as a data gap

Whose problem this is

Functional WM/logistics execution consultant territory in nearly all cases. ABAP involvement is only needed if a custom variant or report wraps LT10's selection logic. Basis is not involved unless the TO creation batch job scheduled from this list is failing to run. A good handover includes the warehouse number, the exact selection criteria used, the TR number affected, and whether the TR's source document (delivery, order) was confirmed to exist and be WM-relevant.
