Go to OPFA,click on basic data-then click on influencing,there you will get the contents field.take work cenetr category and check for efficiency rate whether it is mandatory or not.

How to create operations without entering a performing work center

How to create operations without entering a performing work center ? which control key should i select ?

Hi
QM01 is control key used for all the task lists of Quality.
there is no such a configuration associated with control key & usage of work center.
Work center is used for the activity capturing perpose & control key is to control operations.
I hope this is clear.
Entering a work center is totally depends on the scenario & not control key.

Production performance report against work center.

Hi PP Gurus,
There is a requirement to develop a production line (work center) performance report in BI which is comprising of Planned setup time, Actual setup time and their variance against a production plant and work center. Input parameters will be Material, Plant, Work center, Date/Week/Month. The scenario is PP Discrete Manufacturing.
Could anyone please tell me how to fetch data from different tables and how to interlink them?
Thanks & Regards,
Abu Arbab

Hi Brijesh,
Thanks for reply
As I told in my first post that I need tables,fields/infostructure that should contain Planned setup time, Actual setup time. I got some infostructure like S022, S024, S281, S282, but I'm not getting exact link between one of them related to input criteria.
If anybody worked on such requirement please reply

Buyer Work Center performance and persoanlizations

Hi All,
we are currently on R12.1.3 and we've few issues with the way the Buyer Work Center is working
1) The performance of BWC is very slow. Navigating from one field to another field takes at least 5seconds. For fields like project, task, org etc the form takes 10seconds also. Combining all this, creating a PO with 10 lines takes about 10-15mins for our users. Is this normal? Are there ways to improve the performance?
2) There are multiple screens to navgiate. First the users start off with header then to line summary and then to line details/schedules/distributions etc. Is there a simple way to make all information available in one single page so that the users do not have to spend time navigating from one screen to another screen? This will be really helpful for users creating POs with more than 10lines. I'm thinking of persoanlizing the PO line summary screen and make POET available there. Has anyone done any customizations to the PO line summary screen?
I'm sure you must have faced similar issues with your clients. Please let me know if you handled these issues.
Thanks,

Has anyone done any customizations to the PO line summary screen? Same question was asked by my client, I recommended them to go directly to the "Distributions" tab and search for the PO. Actually most of the key fields from the header, lines, shipments and distributions are available at the distribution tab and you can add many more fields by clicking on the "Add Another" field. Moreover, you can save the final view for future reference so that you don't need to add the same fields again.
Yes, it is a workaround, as you will see repeated lines for multi shipment and distribution scenarios but single shipment - distribution scenario will be OK.
Thanks,

CO11N: how to perform confirmation entry authorization per work center

During production order confirmation entry authorization per work center is required however the standard authorization object for the confirmation Is only per plant and order type

Hi,
Yes, you are correct..
There is no check for the workcenter, unlike for Network Orders..
But, you can use the User Exits:
CONFPP02 PP order conf.: Customer specific input checks 1
CONFPP03 PP order conf.: Cust. specific check after op. selection
CONFPP04 PP order conf.: Customer specific input checks 2
for your own chcks at the time of confirmation..
Take the help of your ABAPer..

Dyanmic work center selection in production order based on material

Hi ALL,
We’ve a business requirement to support the following functionality.
There are four similar type of milling machines say MILL1 MILL2, MILL3, MILL4, we create a single work center called MILLMC by specifying total capacity of four milling machines in the capacity header screen of work center with 4 individual capacities. And we mention work center MILLMC in the operation of routings for respective materials.
However, during production order creation, there needs to be provision for detailed planning of work centers as per the following requirements
In production order, some operations can be performed on any one of the machines MILL1 MILL2, MILL3, MILL4, so provision needs to be there to enter exact machine on which it is performed in the production order operation after the details are copied from respective routing during production order creation.
In production order, some operations can be performed on only MILL3, so system should select only MILL3 in the respective operation of the production order
In production order, some operations can be performed on either MILL1 or MILL2 or MILL4 and not on MILL3, so system should not select MILL3 in the respective operation of the production order.
Please provide your valuable feedback to support the above requirements.
Regards,
Satya.

Hi Satyanarayan,
Please do refer to the below document. I think the same concept can be used for work centers as it is used for resources in PI industry.

Block production work center during maintenance order

Dear Experts,
iam trying to do the integration between PM and PP, I want to block the production work center from any production order when there is any maintenance order opened for a certain equipment which is inside this work center ,
till now i did the following:
1) the production work center is now inside the equipment location tab
2) when i open any maintenance order i put system condition as zero
now what i only achieved ,
- in transaction CM25 the capacity is black for the period of the maintenance order
BUT the work center is not blocked and any production order can be created without any error
please help and much thanks in advance
Best Regards

Hi,
Till time you have performed right things to integrate PP-PM & system is also responding according to setting.
Showing block capicity in CM25 against the Maintenance Order.
If you want to block production order as well, you need to do one more setting.
go to t- code OIOI, selection Production order types (those you want to block) & in capacity Availabilty choose Collect conversion as 3 : No creation if there is insufficiant caacity.
i hope this will definately solve your problem.

Employee Responsible for a work center

Good Morning,
We use Project Systems in order to do project management within SAP. We use the work center to define the team structure. I know that there is a place to maintain the person responsible for a work center in the config, but the entry here is a text field. We are trying to link the owner of a workcenter back to the reporting structure that can be pulled from HRP1001, and a text field makes it more difficult to track this back to the HR side. We currently enter the name of a manager in this field, and if there is no other place to define the person responsible using a pernr, we'll have to start using this field to enter personnel number. This will allow ABAP to pull the pernr and trace it to a position number on HRP1001. I'd like to keep the manager name in this field if at all possible though. Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

How to use Assignment Enforcement(Work Center Maintenance)

I thought that I was not able to start SFC in the work center which Assignment Enforcement is set in Enforced.
However, SFC was able to be begun and to be completed by using POD in the following situations.
Is the mistake found in my way to use Assignment Enforcement?
Product A can use just resource RSC01 in operation PR001.
Resource RSC01 is assigned to work center WC001.
I set Assignment Enforcement in Enforced.
And No user assign to work center WC001.
I start SFC at operation PR001 and resource RSC01.

Yousuke,
Let me quote the guru of ME first:
"The Assignment Enforcement option only applies to the actual assignments made in SWA (Rich Supervisor Work Assignment). If any assignments were made in SWA, then those will be enforced as defined by this rule. There is still one validation that is performed no matter how this option is set: The operator must still be in the W/C to perform the work in the Rich POD. We donu2019t want users from WC1 working in WC2, ever. That is why we always make this validation, even if the rule is set to None."
So, in case you use Rich POD, SWA and Assignment Enforcement option, then you should see the error message caused by Assignment Enforcement.

PP-PM Integration (Work Center)

Hi all,
In my client place, they have 10 similar Production machines with equal capacities and perform same function.
So, as per the availability of any of those machines, production people will load the machine against Production Order. To do this, they have created only ONE workcenter with 10 Individual Capacities.
So, they have assigned that Work Center in the Routing and as per the availability of 10 individual Capacities, they can confirm and dispatch the P.O.
If we consider PM, 10 different Equipment nos have to be generated with the same work center. So if I block any of those 10 Equipments, that work center will get blocked and they can not dispatch the PO.
Please guide and give your inputs to how to proceed in this scenario.
Thnx in advance
Sam

hi,
u r correct. I am also looking for a rectification only.
In case of Process industry, this std scenario will work , as if any one of the machine gets stopped, all other machine can not run.
to put in a simple way, if output of one machine is the input of next machine, then we can accomodate ONE workcenter for all the machines in that chain/assembly/line.
in my case the requirement is, none of the machines' output is linked with others input.
If anybody could find any user exits/Badi or any other solution, please give ur valuable points.

Open Space as a work center

Hi Gurus,
My client is in fabrication work. Client has a huge open space where they perform the work. Now client want to do the capacity planning for the open space. Suppose has the space of 10000 sq meter. In that space can produced 3 finished products. If the fourth order order comes system should show the overloading? How can i do this scenario in sap?
Its an urgent.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Mayur

Hi Mayur,
For your requirement, below are some suggestions:
1. Create work center category as Free Space:
You can define the task list usability of the work center category by customizing transaction: OP40.
2. if required create the capacity category as "Free Space" by copying from 001/Machine.
Maintain all the other settings related to Work center like: Standard available capacity, shifts etc..
Whether to consider the capacity for 3 products or more is entirely depends on your work center formulas and standard values..
Hope this helps..
Revert for further discussion..

Siva

How to manage work center in Production order

Hi,
I am producing a material having one operation (suppose cutting), which I have mentioned in the routing. I have also mentioned the work center in routing on which cutting operation will be performed. When I make the Production order of 1000 pcs there comes only one work center. But practically, they are producing these 1000 pcs on two different work centers ( 500 on one and 500 on second). How to manage this in SAP.
Kindly help me.
Thanks and Regards,
Yogesh Singla

Dear ,
What is the individual capacacity of the Work Centre -CR02-Header -No of Individual Capacity ?
I think you must be using similar kind of work centre of 2 no 1000 pc .Now , when you are creating routing for this , you should hit Required Spilliting in Routing Operation -Select Operation line item and then Double click -Select Spilitting and enter splitting No 2.
At the same time in CR02-Work Center -Capacity Tab -Hit the Header -In the Bottom of the Detail Capacity Header -Avaialabile Capacity -Include 2 as Number of Inidvidaul Capacity and SAVE.
Now based on thr required spilittinga and invidual caapcity , it will consider the Work Centre Load .
Other wise , you can enter one more operation line in routing with similar Labor hrs , work center and control key in routung for production of 1000 pc .
Hope it clarifies

Pooled capacity, machine work center can have labour?

Dear All,
1) We have eg. a common pool of welders for Location A and Location B welding work centers. How do we setup the pooled capacity and assign to them?
2) We have eg. 2 CNC machining work centers (Vert and Horiz) but we have labour support to do machine setup, labour related jobs etc. If we need to perform labour capacity planning in this machine-based work center, is this done by maintaining a separate work center for this labour support and assigned to the same Cost Center? Or for machine-based work center, labour capacity planning is not required?
Thank you for contributing.

Dear
We have eg. a common pool of welders for Location A and Location B welding work centers. How do we setup the pooled capacity and assign to them?
There is no differnce between pooled capacity and available caapcity .Only thing is you can utilised this capacity pool for various work centre level.
To do that , Goto - SPRO-Production -BAsic Data-Work center-Capacity Planning-Define Capacity categories -Create Capacity Categoery for common pool of welders , Create Capacity in CR11 and assing them into Work cetre Capaicty tab-Pooled Capacity Catogeries and maintian No of indivuial caapcity in Capacity Header -Standard Available caapcity-Indivual Capacity ( Total Number of welders with working timing , utilisation ) .
Quest2 : To address this issue , you can select Setup , Labour and Machine in Defalut tab of same Work centre with proper Standard Value Key .Now , as they are all part of the Production activity , so you can keep the same Cost Centre ( Production Cost Centre ) in the Work centre tab with Formula Key of Labour ,Machine and setup .Goto CR02-Default Tab and Costing tab .
Hope this is clear
