Back flushing repetitive manufacturing

Hi,
I am using MFBF to backflush the components. Here when the coponents are backflushed the issuing storage location are not picked automatically.
The process here is repetitive and no planned orders or nothing used here.
WE use Work center, Routing and production version.
When I put finished good quantity in the screen and put other data, it is going to different screen to select for the storage location, why it is not automatically picking the storage location.
Where we need to do settings for that?
Please advice.
Thanks,

Dear PS,
Maintain the production storage location(from which the components should get issued) for all the components either in the BOM
of the header material or else in the material master of the components.
Once after saving the data,check in MFBF for assembly backflush whether the storage location are getting populated as
maintained in the BOM or else in the material master.
Check and revert back.

  • Repetitive manufacturing:backflush

    Dear experts,
                      At my client place , repetitive manufacturing scenario is there.
    While doing back flush, I am facing an error "Argument 1061 not contained in table T437D"
                                     "Message no. RM001"
    Please guide me where I am going wrong in customisation.
    Regards,
    Sameer

    Dear Sameer,
    check for this 2 settings,
    SPRO-Production-Repetitive Manufacturing-Planning-Define scheduling parameters for Planned orders (OPU5),Check
    *whether for order type * or for order type PE - Run Schedule*Quantity for Plant RA01 whether you have maintained the
    relevant required parameters.
    Then also in SPRO-Production-Repetitive Manufacturing-Planning - Planning Table-Maintain distribution for Planning
    table whether you maintained the setting for the plantRA01.
    Once after doing this setting,it gets updated in table T437D.

  • Repetitive manufacturing  Print outs

    Hello,
    I am new for the repetitive manufacturing.
    For the  repetitive manufacturing scenario I have some questions.
    At the time of Pull list (MF60) and MFBF-Confirmation (Back flush) I need print out for the shop floor use.
    For that which customizing needs to be maintained? And Print out will give me Which kind of information?
    Without any ABAP or BADI setting can it be possible?

  • MFBF Back flush

    Hi,
    Can anybody explain me what is assembly backflush, component backflush and activity backflush? and which radio button we should use and when?
    Jayesh

    Hi
    Activity back flush:
    Use:
    In make-to-stock repetitive manufacturing, the system posts the material costs to the product cost collector in the final backflush.
    Depending on the settings in Customizing, the system also automatically posts the planned production activities from the cost estimate to the product cost collector. If the actual production activities vary from the planned production activities, you can also enter the actual activities (actual times) in the final backflush.
    Prerequisites:
    Customizing:
    You must create a repetitive manufacturing profile which allows the creation of actual activities. To do this, you select Post activities in the Cost accounting section of the repetitive manufacturing profile. You can also choose whether you want to backflush using the data from the standard cost estimate for the material (multi-version) or using the data from the preliminary costing (version specific).
    Work centers:
    You must create a work center or a line hierarchy for the production line.
    Here, in the Basic data tab page, you must enter a standard value key which determines the composition of the various standard values, for example, for the setup time, the machine time or the teardown time.
    In the Cost centers tab page for the work centers, you must enter the cost center and assign the activity types to the standard values.
    Routing:
    You must assign a control key that allows backflushing and cost estimation to each operation in the routing. To do this, select Cost estimate in the control key and enter an indicator which allows backflushing in the Backflush field.
    Material master:
    In the MRP data for the material, you must enter the repetitive manufacturing profile you defined above.
    In the MRP data for the material, you must also create a production version containing the work center and the routing.
    You must select a repetitive manufacturing profile for the material that allows activities to be posted to a product cost collector.
    You must create a product cost collector.
    In the repetitive manufacturing profile, depending on your settings, you must carry out a standard cost estimate for the material or a cost estimate for the production version. You have to flag and release the standard cost estimate.
    Or alternatively, in the initial screen for backflushing, you must select the activity posting by choosing Details.
    Features:
    The posting of production activities is optional. The system calculates the production activities using the standard cost estimate for the material or the preliminary cost estimate for the product cost collector. When posting activities, the system uses the routing valid at the time of the cost estimate. When creating the cost estimate, the system creates a copy of the routing which it uses to determine the production activities.
    If the actual times differ from the planned times in the routing, you can also backflush these times. (For more information, see Correcting Activities.)
    Execution:
    Use
    If more (or less) activities are used to produce a material than you posted, you can use this function to repost the excess (or reduced) activities.
    It may be necessary to do this if a difference exists after backflushing the planned and actual activities. These differences have to be balanced.
    Procedure
    Starting from the initial screen for backflushing, choose Activity backflush.
    The system displays the screen for backflushing activities.
    Enter the appropriate plant and the assembly for which you want to backflush activities. If necessary, restrict your selection further.
    In the Reference quantity field , enter "0".
    This allows you to differentiate between posting a balance and posting a complete activity. When posting the complete activity, enter the appropriate reference quantity here.
    Choose Continue.
    The system proposes the operations, for which you can post a balance.
    Select the appropriate operations and confirm with Enter.
    Now enter the excess or reduced activities and save.
    I hope above three posts will help you understanding the concept and when to use it exactly.

  • Repetitive Manufacturing Scenario

    Dear All,
    I would appreciate it if you can provide me with a FLOW of REM, a walkthrough guide with transactions to test the REM scenario and pre-requisites of each transaction.
    Thank you

    Dear,
    Reporting Point Rem
    Steps are as,
    1)You must assign a suitable repetitive manufacturing profile in the material master record to be able to backflush a material using either the mandatory or the optional reporting point backflush function.
    2)You must set the optional or the mandatory reporting point backflush in the repetitive manufacturing profile.
    3)This type of backflushing corresponds to the milestone confirmation in make-to-order production. Therefore, in the routing, you must select a control key which has indicator 1 (= milestone confirmation) in the confirmation field.
    4)You must enter the routing in the production version of the material. The system first looks for the routing entered in the detailed planning section. If no entry exists here, the system then uses the routing from the rate-based planning section.
    5)You must carry out a version-specific or a standard cost estimate.
    6.You are recommended to use the version-specific cost estimate which can be carried out in shorter intervals than the standard cost estimate.
    Reporting point is a concept for REM. This is to be set up just like Milestone operation.
    Select the Control key which is relevent for Milestone confirmation like PP01
    or select a control key which is having the confirmtion selected as *1 - Milestone confirmation
    You need to select REM profile 003 or 004 from sttd REM profiles to have Reporting Point and in OP67 (Control key for Operations) you need to set confirmation to 1 - milestone confirmation .
    Please try and come back.

  • REM Back flush using firmed planned orders

    Dear Gurus,
        We are using REM manufacturing process in SAP , we are doing backflush for stage wise confirmation and final confirmation.while doing this we are not referring any planned orders as reference.
    if we update new part numbers in BOM the system asking for the availbilty of that particular new part numbers but physically we are having old materials .
    we want to consume that old materials how it possible in the MFBF t.code.
    if any one please help me ,  if I firmed a planned order with quatity or date then sytem will ask the old materials instead of new one.
    pls explain what is planned orders and their impact on MRP ?
    how we can firmed that planned, if i firmed what is the impact duirng backflushing?.
    Thanks & Regards

    Hi
    please compare the process when you create the production order manually in Co01 instead of creating the production order by converting the planned order.
    Here you are carrying out back flush with out refering the planned order.
    It is like creating the production order manually.
    In such case system will always look the BOM as of now.
    It will not refer any of the planned order & the components there in.
    If you want to consume the old parts instead of new parts , you can delete the new part numbers & add the old ones in MFBF. this will be allowed by system.
    In this case you are back flushing with out reference to planned orders.System will not ask for old components at all whether planned order is firmed or not.
    Once if planned order is firmed a star (*) mark will appear in MD04 near the planned order number.
    Once if the planned order is firmed, it will not be changed in subsequent MRP Run.
    Hope it is clear.
    Pl. award if it is clear else pl. update.

  • Back flushing??

    dear all,
    I still confuse with back flushing, what is backflushing? and maybe you can give some example of backflushing process?
    thank you

    Dear Marufat,
    Discrete Scenario:
    Backflush is nothing but the automatic Good's issue of the material at the time of order confirmation.
    It means consumption of the components has taken place in order to manufacture a product.
    261 movements happens for the backflushed component's,for this you have to set the indicator either in
    the material master (MRP 2 view or else in the work center or else in the routing).
    If you are using Discrete concept means then this setting has to be made manually in any one of these fields and in the case of
    REM scenario no need to set this indicator in either of the material master or else work center or else in rate routing.
    If you are not going for backflush concept means then you have to issue the matertials to the order
    manually using MB1A T Code.
    REM scenario:
    Again in REM scenario there are 3 types of backflush,
    1.Assembly backflush(normally GR,GI and activities are posted - 131,261 and activites are posted) or vice versa like 132,262.
    2.Component backflush(normally GI alone happens - 261/262 happens)
    3.Activity backflush(only the operations are posted)
    All these backflushes are performed using MFBF/MF42N.
    Check and revert back.

  • Scrap credit in back flush

    Hi,
    we are using back flush in our repetative manufacturing scenario.
    In our process we get the scrap in every stage and client is giving average % of scrap, and we will sell this scrap for kg 24 to customers. And client is asking reducing this from original cost. for this we have added a row in cost component structure as scrap credit.
    He want to calculate this scrap automatically.
    How to solve this issue. Please guide me step by step process.

  • Cost  of finished product repetitive manufacturing

    Hi,
    My clients produces 5 different finshed products always. I want to map the scenario in Repetitive manufacturing.
    Is it possible in REM to get the actual cost of production of 5 products separately?? fir example can i get cost of finished product 1 as Rs200, in the month of Jan2009 for 10 quantity, cost of finished product 2 in the month of Jan2009 for 5 quantity etc etc .
    Regards.

    Thanks to all for their valuable inputs.
    Dear Mangalraj: Its really a challenge for me to decide whether to go for REM or not. The reason why I am not going for discrete is :
    1. Client doesnt know how much of ( for example) fertilizers it issues for finished 1 or finished 2 . client says he  knows that in a month how much he has used  for example 100 kg of fertilizers in total, not on basis of finished goods. So, i think i will have problem during BOM creation and goods issue in particular.
    2. Since finished products are rose plants, jasmine plants etc, client says i dont how much to do Goods reciept. few plants may still be not ready to be able to do goods reciept.Client says its very difficult for me to count flower plants everyday and then say out of 1000, 10 are ready to be done Goods reciept and 15 are dead so these should be scrapped etc.
    These are the resons why i thought it to map to REM. But client also wants to know price of each plant , means whats the price of rose plant(per plant), price of jasmine plant( per plant).
    Request you all to throw some light on this..
    Regards.

  • Production Order in Repetitive Manufacturing

    Hi All,
    We are using REM scenarios. But we need to use the Production order for some material in the same plant where we are already using REM.
    Is it possible to use both Discrete and REM for the same material but at different periods? Using Discrete for some period and switching over to REM. Is there is anyway to use the above mentioned scenario.
    Kindly suggest.
    Regards,
    Sureshbabu G.

    Hi,
             As we know that In Repetitive Manufacturing, components are often staged at the production line without reference to a particular order.
    To create the demand program again for your production order, you must define the planning strategy for a product. Planning strategies represent the methods of production for planning and manufacturing or procuring a product. and run the scenario accordingly.

  • Batch managment and back flush

    Dears
    Some of my raw material is batch managment activated now i want it to be as back flush
    so pleae tell me what will be the imapct of doing the same'
    How system automatically issue the raw material from the old date batches
    AF

    Hi Abu Fathima,
    Batch Determination step as follows:
    For that you have to do five important steps or features you have to know OK.
    1) Batch number assignment: We use this function to assign a batch with a number that uniquely identifies it OK.
    2) Batch Specf: To describe each batch uniquely using like Characteristics and characteristic The values. are allocated in the material master.
    3) Batch status management: To indicate weather a batch is usable or unusable: We can set (a) Manually in the batch master record or at goods receipt and (b) Automatically in the usage dissension in quality management.
    4) Batch Determination: We can use this function for various criteria to search for batches that are in stock (a) movement type: When posting goods issues (b) When combining suitable components for order types.
    5) Where used list: The batch where used list shows the path of the batch from its procurement to its delivery to the customer.
    6) Active Ingredient Management: This function is to administrate and process materials with active ingredients that are to be handled in batches OK.
    Condition types: Say for x material if we want to determine the batch at the movement type/ plant/order type.
    Access Sequence: It will checks weather the batch determination is done with movement type/ plant/ material &
    order type/ plant/ material.
    Strategy type: We will assign here condition type and Access sequence and as well we have to maintain Class type: 023
    sort sequence, batch split
    Batch Search Procedure: Here we will define the search procedure and using the condition type here OK.
    Batch Search Procedure Allocation and Check Activation: Here we will assign the search procedure to the movement types and for order types as well
    HERE THE BELOW FOLLOWING DATA WILL GIVE YOU RIGHT UNDERSTANDING OK:
    a) It will looks for the search procedures.
    b) It searches through the strategy types in the search procedures for a valid search strategy.
    c) Characteristics from the selection class of the search strategy looks for batches with suitable specifications.
    d) Then it will looks for weather the batches are available.
    e) It sorts the batches that are available according to the sort rule from the search strategy.
    f) Then the system selects a proposed quantity with proposed quantity from the search strategy.
    Go -
    > Logistic General -
    > SPRO -
    > Batch Management you can find every thing there it self.
    Any questions revert me back please.

  • WIP FOR REPETITIVE MANUFACTURING WITH VALUATED SALES ORDER

    Dear All,
    We are in the process of implementing Repetitive manufacturing with valuated sales order(MTO). I want to clarify whether in this scenario WIP will be generated.
    Since, at the time of final backflushing, what ever GR done for finished goods, the GI for its components will be done automatically. The components will be issued based on the BOM. I think in this scenario WIP will not be there.
    Please tell me whether i am correct.
    regards
    ranga

    Thanks. I have another scenario. My client wants to transfer all cost of HR,Admin, finance etc and other indirect production cost center cost to production cost center. I mean they want to charge on the product. I have to production cost center. Client will give me the basis for allocating the cost. I have to do assessment and distribution for cost allocation
    But, I want to clarify how do i include the admin, hr or finance and indirect production cost center cost in cost component structure if i do the above process.
    How to do the cost splitting.

  • In Process Inspection for Repetitive Manufacturing

    Hi All,
    I'm trying to perform in-process inspection for repetitive manufacturing. I have a semi finished material which has the inspection type 13 activated in the material master. Rate routing for it has also been created. Characteristics have been assigned to its operation and the routing is attached to a production version. When I o to MFPR to create a lot, I specify the material, plant and production version with QM active (tried the other 2 options as well) but when I execute, nothing shows up in the list. When I click on create inspection lot, it says, "either select versions or place cursor on versions now" but there's nothing in the list?
    Regards,
    Bilal

    Hi,
    Please check whether the repetitive manufacturing check box and REM profile is defined in the MRP4 of material master.
    Please define that and try to run the transaction MFPR.
    It should solve your problem
