Differrence Between Process Order & Production Order

What is differrence between Process Order & Production order apart from that process order is used in process industry & other one in discrete mfg ??

Hi
there isn't really any difference. The main difference is in master data: Routing vs. Recipe.
as you have mentioned, prodn. orders are used for discrete, repetitive & virtual mfg scenarios whereas process orders are used for process industries (chemicals, pharmaceuticals etc.,) where the prodn. is non-stop.
You can use production order or process order for the same scenario even when you are in a process industry. It is your decision to use either one, but you have to know that process order is more appropriate when you have more machine integrations and interfaces. Process order, as well, requires more master data than production order since you are clubbing both BOM & Routing in the master recipe.
also Process Order can handle batch management and joint production scenario in a better way in comparison to the production order. Also in process order you can maintain the inprocess instructions and special control paramters for production via the process instruction key and control recipe which is not there in a prodcution order.
hope it helps

Can we obtain Inspection lots against a Process Order / Production Order

Can we obtain Inspection lots against a Process Order / Production Order on time basis i.e hourly or day wise against the same order

HI
i think there is no this option.Like Plant maintenance ther is no scheduling tool.
or you have to go with stability studies...

External subcontracting processing in production orders

Hi Everybody, We are facing a following situation...while using external subcontracting processing in production orders..
Finance wants all costs settled off of production orders with receipts against them at period end to accurately capture costs for the period. This is because of our companys financial policy i.e. we have to settle the exact costs by every month end instead of using GR/IR postings for partially confirmed quantities.. Any production orders with receipts against them must be able to be settled at period end. This includes partially received production orders, (it means when the total production order quantity is 10 PCS and if Subcon vendor sends 5pcs in this month end and sends the remaining 5 in the next month).
Currently we have not been able to settle partially received production orders in our testing. SAP is requiring the production order to be in TECO (Technically Complete) status before it can be settled. It is not feasible for PP to have production orders that have not been fully received in TECO status because they loose visibility to them in their reporting and tracking.
does any body dealth with this situation? any userexits, functional specs etc..
Your guidance will be very helpful,,
srikanth

Did you try using in order type/settlement profile the radio button which indicates can be settled and the not one which corresponds to 100% settlement. Hope this helps.

Disabling GATP for planned orders/production orders

Hi,
We have a scenario where we need to disable ATP check for production orders happening through GATP. That is, ATP check for production order materials should happen in SAP R/3. This is a problem because we have activated ATP check in integration models for sales orders and it is happening through GATP. Production Planning is happeninig in R/3 and we dont have either PP/DS or SNP in APO. ..only GATP.
any pointers on how the ATP check for planned orders/production orders can be blocked in GATP for the same materials which are active for sales order GATP check?
Thanks.

hi Pawan /Prasun /vikas
Thanks for your helpful answers
@Pawan : Since we have recently gone live with production planning and its in the process of stabilizing we do not want to enable ATP check for production orders in GATP yet. Also since we are also using batch-determination with ATP check in production orders we still have to check how the system responds with the combination. Therefore,as of now, we dont intend to switch on ATP for production orders in GATP.
@ Prasun : I understand there would be a user exit (EXIT_SAPLATPC_001) which would help in doing GATP check based on order type/business event. However my concern is if the order does not belong to any of the order types will the system do a normal standard ATP check in APO or it will do a ATP check in R3 ? Our programmers are still looking how to tweak it but any pointers based on your experience will be helpful
Thanks

MRP: how to avoid Purchase orders/ Production orders generation

Hello,
I would like to know how can I avoid the generation of purchase orders / production orders for MRP execution. I am interested in knowing which are going to be my future needs for a material running the MRP, but I am not interested in generating any new Purchase order / Production order.
I've been changing some parameters in the MRP 2 tab: procurement type, but I think that it is also related with MRP type or MRP group or both. With the procurement type I've only been able to change the purchase requisitions to planned orders and viceversa.
Any suggestions?
Thank you

Hi Cristian,
W/o MRP run you cannot get the requirements at lower level.
Please understand:
FG - Stock 10, IndReq 20; Halb - Stock 5; RM - Stock 2
> MRP run >
FG - Stock 10, IndReq 20, PldOrd 10
Halb - Stock 5, DepReq 5, PldOrd 5
RM - Stock 2, DepReq 3, PurReq 3
So, via MRP run the requirements are calculated with planning proposals together. As I told you this is material requirement planning, this is the very purpose of MRP.
If you only want to display the stocks and requirements, create a query / riport for this purpose and use the appropriate filter.
Csaba
(sorry, refresh button helps only if you change the PO, PrdOrd, etc > one level under the material you can see the effect)

PLEASE NOTICE THAT W/O MRP-generated-PldOrd YOU WON'T GET THE DepReq.

Availability Check in planned Order & Production Order

Dear All,
How can I achieve the same Availability Check (missing Parts ) output in Planned Order & Production Order.
Currently in Availability check in Planned Order is bit different in the sense, I have the Component in Stock without any reservation. But in Planned Order it shows in Missing part.
But if I convert this Planned Order to Production Order, it is not visible in Missing parts which is correct.
I want to have the same missing part report for both Planned Order & Production Order.
Thanks
Regards'
Raghu

Dear Brahmankar,
Thanks for replay.
Now i did, the said possibility, in OPJK is different from my Regular material master rule.
When i see, availability in MD12 it shows the material available, and same as in Production Order check as well.
But when, I use MDVP, for check. the same planned order shows the same component as missing.
am i on the right track?
Please suggest.
Thanks

Sales order / production order

Hi
In sales order / Production order when they run KKAK - RA there are 5 orders that is not showing up but when they reconcile it to GL there is a difference in the amount of these 5 orders are showing up as negative and these 5 orders are in WIP. what could be the reason for not showing the 5 orders in the report.
Thank you.

Regarding Goods Reversal and Goods Issue process for Production orders

Hi,
I have a issue regarding Goods Reversal and Goods Issue process for Production orders.
Actually I am having a Z - Function Module in that i am passing production order number other details to
make the Goods Reversal happen.
The code for the above is as below:
 i_mvtit-material = wa_mdfa-matnr.
 i_mvtit-plant = i_resb-werks.
 i_mvtit-spec_stock = 'Q'. "New
 i_mvtit-stge_loc = 'ZWIP'.
 i_mvtit-stge_type = i_resb-lgtyp. "New
 i_mvtit-batch = i_resb-charg. "New
 i_mvtit-orderid = i_resb-aufnr.
 i_mvtit-spec_stock = i_resb-sobkz.
 i_mvtit-entry_qnt = i_resb-enmng.
 i_mvtit-entry_uom = i_resb-erfme.
 i_mvtit-entry_uom_iso = i_resb-meins. "New
 i_mvtit-wbs_elem = v_frwbs.
 i_mvtit-move_type = '262'.
 i_mvtit-xstob = 'X'.
 i_mvtit-gr_rcpt = i_resb-aufnr. "New
 i_mvtit-reserv_no = i_resb-rsnum.
 i_mvtit-res_item = i_resb-rspos.
 APPEND i_mvtit.
* HEADER ELEMENTS
 k_gmvt_code-gm_code = '03'.
 k_gmvt_head-pstng_date = sy-datum.
 k_gmvt_head-doc_date = sy-datum.
* CREATE GOODS MOVEMENTS
 CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE'
 EXPORTING
 goodsmvt_header = k_gmvt_head
 goodsmvt_code = k_gmvt_code
 TABLES
 goodsmvt_item = i_mvtit
 return = i_return.
The Above code does the Goods Reversal but then i will update one Z Table with fields like
Production Order Number[AUFNR], Number of Reservation[RSNUM], Item Number of Reservation [RSPOS], Material Number [MATNR], Requirement Quantity [BDMNG], WBS element[PSPNR] etc. If Above BAPI runs sucessfully.
That is happening correctly.
But Then actual issue is i have do Goods Issue for those Z-Table records.
There i will give Production order Number's & Storage Location in Selection-Criteria.
Then i need to do Goods Issue for that order.
The code i had written as follows.
* POPULATE VALUES FOR BAPI CALL
 i_mvtit-material = i_zpsi7603_01-matnr.
 i_mvtit-plant = i_resb-werks.
 i_mvtit-spec_stock = 'Q'. "New
 i_mvtit-stge_loc = p_sloc.
 i_mvtit-stge_type = i_resb-lgtyp. "New
 i_mvtit-batch = i_resb-charg.
 i_mvtit-orderid = i_resb-aufnr.
 i_mvtit-spec_stock = i_resb-sobkz.
 i_mvtit-entry_qnt = i_resb-enmng.
 i_mvtit-entry_uom = i_resb-erfme.
 i_mvtit-entry_uom_iso = i_resb-meins. "New
 i_mvtit-wbs_elem = v_frwbs.
 i_mvtit-move_type = c_261.
 i_mvtit-mvt_ind = 'F'. "New
 i_mvtit-xstob = c_x.
 i_mvtit-gr_rcpt = i_resb-aufnr. "New
 i_mvtit-reserv_no = i_resb-rsnum.
 i_mvtit-res_item = i_resb-rspos.
 APPEND i_mvtit.
* HEADER ELEMENTS
 k_gmvt_code-gm_code = c_03.
 k_gmvt_head-pstng_date = sy-datum.
 k_gmvt_head-doc_date = sy-datum.
* CREATE GOODS MOVEMENTS
 CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE'
 EXPORTING
 goodsmvt_header = k_gmvt_head
 goodsmvt_code = k_gmvt_code
 TABLES
 goodsmvt_item = i_mvtit
 return = i_return.
 CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT'
 EXPORTING
 wait = c_x.
 READ TABLE i_return INDEX 1.
 IF i_return-type EQ c_s.
 DELETE FROM zpsi7603_01 WHERE aufnr = i_resb-aufnr AND
 rsnum = i_resb-rsnum AND
 rspos = i_resb-rspos.
 ENDIF.
If i run above code for Goods Issue it is giving error can anybody tell me what changes i need to do to make it work.
The Error Message i am getting is as below:
Qty and / or "delivery completed" ind. or final issue ind. are missing
Error Number for the above is : 264.
Can anybody solve my issue.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks & Regards,
Rayeez.

Hi,
Thanks boss.
It is working now correctly.
The issue is the i_mvtit-XSTOB should be equal space in case of Goods issue while incase of Reversal it should be equal to X.
Thanks for ur efforts.
I had awarded you points.
Thanks a lot.
Thanks & Regards,
Rayeez.

System status for IDOC creation and processing for production orders

All
I am creating IDOCs for production orders to send requirements to an external WM system for kitting execution.
I need to know whether there are any system statuses to notify me when an IDOC has been created,failed and processed. If not, how do I go about creating user defined statuses for these statuses.
Second question, which idocs should I use to confirm, teco and cancel the production orders from an external system?
Thanks
Evan

HI Evan
u can use the standard program - RBDMOIND scheduled in back ground to update the Idoc staus ,
this helps to update the IDoc Status from
'03 Data passed to port OK ' to
'12 Dispatch OK'
status 03 indicates the IDoc is successfully transmitted to Communication Layer and the Status 12 helps to confirm the data dispatch to the receiving port.

SUBCONTRACT PROCESSING AGAINST PRODUCTION ORDER

DEAR GURUS,
SCENARIO - PRODUCTION ORDER HAS 10 OPERATIONS OUT OF WHICH OPERATION
10 TO 20 - IN HOUSE
20 TO 40 - EXTERNAL
40 TO 50 - IN HOUSE
60 - EXTERNAL
70 TO 100 IN HOUSE. PLEASE LET ME KNOW THE ENTIRE PROCESS WITH REGARD TO CREATION OF BOM, SUBCONTRACT PROCESS, MATERIAL MOVEMENT WITH RESPECT TO EXCISE ETC.,

Robert,
For the problematic order, you are having the order material which is having a different valuation class deriving the GL account/Cost Element.
I think the problem is because, system is deriving a Cost Element(Through GL account) during GR posting and that cost element is defined to "Revenue" posting. Please change the cost element category or use a correct cost element with right category. Please work with your FICO person on this.
I think in your case the cost element category is "11", you need to have the derivation to a cost element which is having category "1"
Regards,
Prasobh

Process in production order

What is the process for the Production Order?

Hi,
Step 1: Material Master
Logistics > Production > Master Data > Material Master > Material > Create General > Immediately MM01
Step 2: BOM creation
Logistics > Production > Master Data > Bills of Material > Bills of Material > Material BOM > Create CS01
Step 3: Work Center creation
Logistics > Production > Master Data > Work Center > ( New Screen ) Work Center > Create CR01
Step 4: Route creation
Logistics > Production > Master Data > Routings > Routings > Routing > Create CA01
Step 5: PIR Generation
Logistics> Production>production planning>demand management>PIR>Create MD61
Step 6: MRP Run
Logistics>Materials Management>Material planning>MRP>MRP>Total Planning>Online MD01
or
Logistics > Production > MRP > MRP > Sng-Item, Multi-Level MD02
Step 7: Evaluation through MRP list and Stock requirement list
Logistics>Materials Management>Materials Planning>MRP>Evaluations>MRP List>Individual Display MD05
Logistics>Materials Management>Materials Planning>MRP>Evaluations>Stock Requirements List MD04
Step 8: Conversion of Planned order to Production order
Logistics > Production > Production control > Order > Create > With a planned order CO40
or
Logistics >Production > Production control >Order > Create >With material CO01(For creating production order Without planned order)
Step 9: Order management
Logistics >Production > Production control >Order > Change >With material CO02
Step10: Confirmations
Logistics >Production >Production control >Confirmation >Enter >For order CO15
or
Logistics >Production >Production control >Confirmation >Enter >For Operation >For time ticket CO11N
Step11: Goods issue
1. Logistics >Production >Production Control >Environment >Goods Movement >Goods Issue
2. Logistics >Materials Management >Inventory Management >Goods Movement >Goods Issue MB1A--261Movement type
Step12: Goods receipt
Logistics > Production > Production Order > Environment > Material Movement > Post Mat to Stock
or
Logistics > Materials Management > Inventory Management > Goods Movement > Good Receipt > For Order MB31
Step13: Techo Or Close Order.
This can be done from Prd. Order Header menu.

Waiver process during Production order

Hi,
My client has a requirement whic is called as waiver process, whereby a part could be replaced by another alternative part during production order process, however the whole process need to be integrated with ECM and workflow for seemless communication and approval.
Has anyone come across manufacturing waiver process and can this process be designed within ECC60 or is it better to look for MES or MII tool to address the business requirement?
Appreciate any response concerning this topic.
Thanks and regards,
Bhaskar

I resolved this issue by using the process in SAP ME and ECC, using WIP processing in MES.
