Can MRP be carried out for one particular level of a bom ( Level code : 0001/0002 etc).
Yes it can be done by running for specific materials (Single Material Single Level)
How Requiements( PIR,Sles Order, Customer Requirement) are reduced after they are produced?
Reqmts are reduced automatically after Delivery is made to the Particular Order(In case of Strategy 11, the PIRs are consumed after the GR for Production Order)
Can’t one material be assigned to more than one operation in a routing?
One material from a BOM CANNOT be assigned to different Operations.It can be done by defining the material for so many times as required in the BOM
How to insert an inspection checkpoint at the end of an operation?
If in process sample is to be defined, assign inspection type 03 in the Material Master.Then create MICs and assign them in the Routings.System automatically generates the Inspection Lots
Where we have to specify the teardown time in one operation?
Teardown time can be defined as one of the Standard Parameters…
How the process time is calculated in a WC when both labour, Machine categories exist?
Scheduling is done based on the Capacity Category we define in the Workcenter
How to create opbject dependencies in a BOM FOR A CONFIGURABLE MATERIAL?
Go to Extras -> Object Dependency -> AssignFor this U need to create Characteristics and Class (of Class Type 300) earlier
Can any body explain me why work scheduling view is required for semi finished and finished products?(Because we’ll mention all details in MRP views)
A) We need to maintain working scheduling view in order to make that finished or semi finished goods available for production as we assign production scheduler and production scheduler profile in this view, if not maintained conversion of planned order to production will not be possible.
What is a Product Hierarchy?
A) In SAP, a product hierarchy is used for pricing. A product hierarchy is an alphanumeric character string which consists of 18 characters at the most. Product hierarchy thus define the product and its composition. To take an example, a product hierarchy could be 00010002000300040005. The first four characters 0001 could indicate that the product is a car. The next four characters could indicate 0002 the plant in which the car has been manaufactured. The third set of characters could indicate the color of the car. The next set may determine its engine capacity and so on. Thus, the product hierarchy helps in defining the product composition.
How to configure the planning calendar for the ATP calculation where goods are shipped every other working day?
A)Use Transaction MD25 and define calculation rule for every other working day.Check the lot size settings in OMI4 and maintain relevant data in MMR.
What is the difference between by-product and co-product and how do you differentiate them in a BOM?
A)In case of Co-product costs are settled with a apportionment structure. In case of By-product the price of this by-product is credited to the order or the materialstock account of the lead material being manufactured.Co-Product as well as by-product are defined as BOM Components/Items. Both of them have negative quantities. ( Not all negative quantity items fall under these categories!). When BOM is created for FERT , you can see one indicator in COMPONENT DETAILS screen for co-product. You need to define the co-products with this special indicator .
