Work center Hierarchy

Dear Gurus,
How can I use work center Hierarchy for Capacity Planning.
I have 5 Lathe machines. How can I use Work Center Hierarchy?
I also need  Work Center Wise confirmation.
Please guide me. Also let me know how should I maintain data in work center as well as in routing.
Thanks in advance
RG

Create a new WC (in CR01) as category 0004. This will be the top level WC in your hierarchy. <BR sab="44">Create a hierarchy (in CR21). <BR sab="46">Add your 5 lathes and the newly created top level WC to the hierarchy (in CR22). This can be tricky: the WC you just created must be the top level, the other 5 must be under it. <BR sab="50">Pull the capacity data (in CM01) for the hierarchy: go to settings, hierarchy, check the cumulation of requirements and capacities and type the hierarchy name. <BR sab="54">Route things as before, to the original 5 lathes.

  • Capacity cumulation in work center hierarchy

    Hello
    Does anyone uses workcenter hierarchies to cumulate capacity requirements ?
    I've created a hierarchy but in the capacity evaluation transaction cm01,
    the capacity requirements are not cumulated from the underlying work center.
    Instead a capacity requirement of zero is shown on the hierarchy work center.
    Is there any specifics to cumulate the capacity requirement to work center hierarchy header
    Best regards
    Pascal

    Hi,
      In the transaction CM01, choose the pull-down menu Settings-> General. In the pop-up screen, under the "Herarchy" tab, select the check boxes "Cumulation of reqmts" and "Dyn. capacity cumulation", choose the "Hierarchy" and "Plant" and click on "Continue".
    Now the "Available Capacity" will be as per hierarchy setup and Rem. avail cap = Reqmts-Available capacity.
    Hope this solves the requirement.

  • Work Center Hierarchy and Routing

    Hi,
    I would like to know what exactly Work Center hierarchy mean?. Where is it used. In Routing, we maintain Sequence of operation along with workcenter where this operations are performed . Would like to know does work center hierarchy is linked to sequence maintained in Routing?. Thanks

    Hi,
    Any one can explain me the use of Workcenter Hierarchy?. In Routing, we maintain the sequence of operations. Does Routing and Workcenter Hierarchy has relation?. If Yes, what is the relation between these 2.
    Thanks in advance

  • Capacity planning at Work center Hierarchy level

    Hi,
    I have created Work center Hierarchy, now want to see the cumulative capacity of subordinate work centers at Superior Work center level, but using cm01- std overview, i can't see.
    Can anybody tell me , what-ever is missing?
    with thanks,

    HI Mangalraj,
    Thanks for your reply. I had tried that , even though there is no cummulation done.
    System is showing same error ,as 'There are no capacity requirements for the
    selection and settings'.
    what i have given input is Superior Work Center, Plant and Planner group.
    I didn't mentioned the capacity at superior WC.
    PLEASE HELP.

  • Work Center Hierarchy and Capacity

    Hello SAP friends,
    Can someone please help me with the following scenario?
    I have 3 Work Centers
    MAQ00 - (Capacity 10:00 x 2)
    MAQ01 - 8:00 -- 18:00 (Capacity 10:00)
    MAQ02 - 8:00 -- 18:00 (Capacity 10:00)
    I have a hierarchy
    HICY01
    MAQ00 - Root of hierarchy
    |_ MAQ01
    |_ MAQ02
    Then, I have a routing
    10 - PP01 - MAQ00 - 1H
    20 - PP01 - MAQ00 - 2H
    If I go to CM01 for Work Center MAQ00 I can see the capacity and requirement, where:
    Capacity: 10:00 x 2
    Requirement: 3:00
    But if I go to transaction CM21 for Work Center MAQ00 the capacity and requirement is not correct. Can someone please help me with this?
    Thanks in advance,
    Adelmo Silva

    Hi,
       CM01 will give the cumulative requirement as 3 hrs but CM21(Gradhical View) shows the individual spread of oprn. 10 and 20 as 1H and 2 H resp.
    Does the above help you?

  • Upload/ download Work Center Hierarchy

    Hello All,
    I need your help with this one. Therefore thanks in Advace:
    Is there a way to download and upload work center hierarchies?
    The idea ist to download a complex hierarchy to a file and then upload it to another system/ client.
    Thanx
    Raf

    Hi Daniele,
    I just tried  the way you suggested:
    - RCRAPDX1 downloaded a txt to presentation server with data.
    - changed only the plant in file.
    - run RCRAPDX2
    unfortunately result is that ths system try to maintain the work centers within the file,
    (which are already maintained).
    The hierarchy structure won't be maintained.
    So what I look for is a manner to transport the complete hierarchy structure...
    regards

  • Regarding work center hierarchy

    Hi all,
    I have 2 work centers liked to a superior work center in a hirarchy.
    Is it possible to do capacity planning at the superior work center level.
    The scenario is like this - I will get planned order at a superior work center level. I will  convert the planned order into 2 production orders with child work centers in respective order.
    Now I want that, when I see the capacity overview for the superior work center, it should be full. That means I want to link the capacities of the child work centers to the parent work center. 
    Please let me know if it is possible ?
    Regards,
    Yogesh

    Hi,
    Work center hierarchies are used in capacity planning to cumulate available capacity and capacity requirements. You can cumulate available capacities from subordinate work centers to a superior work center level in order to determine the total available capacity for the superior work center.
    In your situation, I think you need to create two planned orders with the two work centers and after this you will be able to see the capacity requirements cumulated at the superior WC.

  • Work center hierarch cumulation problem

    hi
      I am trying to cumulate capacity requirement from 3 work centers...I created a work center hierarchy as below steps but I cann't see the cumulate result..it prompt no available capacity requirement or work center exist..anyone knows what I should do next?I can do capacity leveling/evaluation,so I think my IMG setting is good..i searched the SDN forum but no workable solution for me..
    thanks.
    Create a new WC (in CR01) as category 0004. This will be the top level WC in your hierarchy.
    Create a hierarchy (in CR21).
    Add your 5 lathes and the newly created top level WC to the hierarchy (in CR22). This can be tricky: the WC you just created must be the top level, the other 5 must be under it.
    Pull the capacity data (in CM01) for the hierarchy: go to settings, hierarchy, check the cumulation of requirements and capacities and type the hierarchy name.
    Route things as before, to the original 5 lathes.

    Hi ,
    Dispatching is used to allocate or schedule the planned orders in the work center/resource.
    We can use CM25 transaction-Graphical planning board for dispatching.
    Planner can assign /dispatch the planned orders manually here. He can see graphically the planned orders overload work center which are dispatched with other.
    Using cm21 you can do capacity levelling graphically or using cm22 can do cap levelling using tabular column.I feel using this would be easy.

  • Main Work center ?

    Dear All,
    Can you please explain,
    How to create main work centre & work center.
    How can we differentiate the two after creation.
    What is the use of work center hierarchy.
    AR

    Hi Amit,
    About Work Center : Work Center is a person, a group of persons, a machine or a group of machines.
    Just understand the above lines. this is the basic defination of work center independent from any PP or PM work center.
    Now, if work center is created to perform Maintenance tasks with * work center category 0005 * those work centers are called maintenance work centers.
    ( Generally persons or group of persons are created as work center in PM)
    If work center is created to perform Production tasks with * work center category 0002 * those work centers are called PP work centers.
    (Generally Machines or group of machines are created as work centers in PP)
    In Plant maintenance, work centers can be defined in Hierarchy i.e. work center heirarchy is possible.
    take an example: you have created a work center with a group of people. you need to define who would be person responsible for this group & also you can define the persons heirarchy with the integration of HR.( e.g. Manager-Senior Engineer- Engineer-Associate Engineer- Senior Fitter- Fitter)
    The difference in one word is : Both are work centers but having different category & being used to perform different kind of tasks.
    For the trasaction : i would only like to say that while creating from PM nodes by t-code IR01, system give you default work center category 0005.
    I hope i am able to solve ur query for some extent.
    Thanks,

  • Why time-dependent not work for cost center and profit center hierarchy

    Has anybody been able to successfully turn on time-dependent for cost center hierarchy? Looks like the R/3 datasource 0COSTCENTER_0101_HIER is defaulted to be NOT time-dependent, and I don’t know how to change the R/3 configuration to enable time-dependent for this datasource.
    Here is what I found. If you go to RSA2 in R/3 and enter datasource 0COSTCENTER_0101_HIER, and then select "Hierarchy Info", you will see that all the time-dependent properties are unchecked by default. By comparison, Cons Unit datasource 0CS_UNIT_CSCU_HIER has “Version Dependent Hierarchy” as selected, and we are able to load Cons Unit hierarchy as time-dependent, but have no luck so far with the Cost Center hierarchy.
    Can any BI guru tell me how I can make time-dependent work for the cost center hierarchy?
    Thanks a bunch!

    Check SETLEAF and SETNODE.
    Basically CO Master data groups dont have seperate tables. They will be available in above tables. Choose proper Set class to filter the results

  • Cost Center, Work Center and Profit Center

    Hi ALL,
    Can any one please explain me the concept of Cost Center, Work Center and Profit Center.
    And where and when do I assign the cost center???
    Amit

    Hi Check the following "
    Cost centers represent areas of responsibility where costs are incurred or where responsibility for costs may be assigned.  They represent the smallest unit of responsibility within the organizational structure of an enterprise.
    A cost center can be pictured as a ‘cost bucket’ such as a department, product line, production stage or geographical area. 
    An unlimited number of cost centers may be created.
    All cost centers within on controlling area have to be assigned to a cost center hierarchy (standard hierarchy).
    Costs originally posted to one cost center may be distributed and assessed to one or more other cost centers using allocations.
    How are costs assigned/posted to a cost center?
    External financial accounting documents created in FI, AM or MM that post to a G/L expense account can be configured to require a cost center assignment be entered at the time of transaction entry.  The system automatically creates a parallel CO document that posts to the indicated cost center.
    Cost elements master records can be configured to be posted to a certain cost center (automatic account assignment).
    In addition, other non-financial activity (i.e., direct labor hours) may be posted directly to cost centers from within CO or via other modules such as PP  or HR

  • Work Center Hierchy

    Dear All,
    I created a workcenter hierarchy UNIT - 1 and into that assign A1 , A2 , A3 work center now going for a CM01 Transaction to see a available cumulative capacity for that make setting in general tab like
    Hierarchy , Plant and check tick box Cumulation of requirement , Cumulation of capacity
    and execute the transaction but system gives message like "There are no capacity requirements for the current selection and settings "
    Guide me accordingly

    Dear Canan ,
    Thanks for your reply I created a new profile as u say and go to transaction CM01 and select the option profile as you said but i recieved the system msg like "The hierarchy  does not exist in plant 1001" but i already created a hierarchy in that plan
    Pls guide me accordingly

  • Structure view "Profit center hierarchy" for Information system

    Hi Experts
    The structure view "Profit center hierarchy" is not available in standard system. I have created a new key with assignement of PS Hierarchy type '2'.
    But iam getting below message when I use this new structure view:
    Alternative hierarchy could not be determined
    Message no. OK032
    Diagnosis
    You attempted to structure your project elements according to an alternative hierarchy (profit center, cost center or summarization hierarchy). The alternative hierarchy could not be read.
    System Response
    The system uses the "Work breakdown structure" view.
    Any suggestion?
    warm regards
    ramSiva

    Ok lets start from basics
    go to CN41 and enter a project with std PS info profile 000000000000001
    if you click o the DB profile you will have basic setting 000000000000001 etc
    this gives us the project structure
    Now in transaction OPUR create a view for PC hierarchy
    Z00000000001 - whatever description
    select PS hier type 2 - Profit Ctr via set
    I think you have done this
    In this configuration there is a group name - you need to enter the profit centre hierarchy group name from your system
    this group must exist in your system check using transaction KCH3 to display group - if this is not entered correctly you will get the exact error you have got - I have been able to replicate in my system
    Now run CN41 change DB profile project view from 00000000001 to Z0000000001
