Process Order For continuous manufacturing

Hello friends;
I am implementing SAP in a process industry where manufacturing is a continuous process without any batch. We dont have any intermediate product.Raw material is continuously provided without any break . Production stops when all raw material finsh i.e. after 6 to 7 months.Raw material passes through different phases and we get finished product.It is not possible to trace the material.Phase has specific process prameters.Parameters changes
acc.to quality of raw material.we have to maitain all parameters constant by adding chemical or supplying heat.
I am going to create single process order for whole production.So, how can map these process parameters?Is it useful to create one PI sheet for whole production period?All process parameters have to maintain constant through out production,then what is the use of PI sheet?
Please guide me.
Thanks!!!!

Hi,
You have only one stage process wright, so is there any GMP (good manufacturing practices or ISO ) if you are maintaining this quality management systems , differently you need to maintain a batch management, so that it is easy to traceable the material.
your process there is a different Phases better to go PI sheets it will be helpful only at Yelids and Inprocess controls.
If you share the more inforamtion on the process so we can able to give some more suggestions.
Thanks and regards

In house prod. time for continuous manufacturing

Hello friends,
I want to enter in house production time in matarial master for continuous manufacturing process.I am using Base Unit Of Measure "Quintal".It is not possible to calculate In house production time. So how can I define it?
Thanks!!

Hi,
In-house production time is lot size independent it use to schedule the order with basic date only, but when we do the lead time scheduling or create production order then system take the values from routing as it is lot size dependent.
It is not possible to calculate In house production time?
So pls maintain the approx time in material master then schedule the routing ca02extrascheduling--schedule after that click on scheduling result and update material master.
Then go to CA96 and update the result in to material master and check the time in material master--work scheduling view.
Hope it will clear your doubt.

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

BAPI function module to get process orders for certain material

Dear experts ,
kindly , I need my vb application to get all CRD , but not DLV Process orders for Material X.
Into SAP , I use the COIO , then set material to X , then display flag CRTD included , and Exclude DLV.
Question now , What is the function module that does this. what is the table name , and how to set search parameters.
my code will be like this
theFunc = functionCtrl.Add("BAPI_PO_GETDETAIL") ' get po data
   theFunc.exports("purchaseorder") = t.Text
             returnFunc = theFunc.call
        returnParam = theFunc.imports("po_header")
        retTab = theFunc.tables("po_items")
        For Each rr In retTab.Rows
            tt1.Text &= (rr("MATERIAL")) & vbTab
        next
Thanks

Hi,
Check if the below helps:
1. BAPI_SALESORDER_GETLIST for VA05
2. BAPI_QUOTATION_GETDETAILBOS for VA25.

Should we use only one process order for each CO-product?

Dear All,
We have process orders. One process order opens per day.
Now we need to use CO-products and calculate actual cost of goods manufactured for them.
Suppose we have 30 process orders. We have specified Apportionment Structure in Material Master.
Then when we create process order we define actual Apportionment Structure in setllement rule as well.
After we have setlled all process orders would Material Ledger/ Actual costing run consider this Apportionment Structures from all 30 process orders?
I heard opinion from Consultant from SAP that it will not work.
Has anyone heard anything?
Best regards,
Kamila.

Hi Evgeniy,
Thanks for response
But we use process orders, not CO-production orders.
We open process order each day because management wants to have information about KPI of each schift.
We have defined in material master apportionment structure, When we create process order we define apportionment structure in settlement rule as well.
When we settle process orders our cost distributes to finished good and CO-product according with this apportionment structure.
But when we run ckmlcp ML/actual costing doesn't distribute raw material's price differences and Semifinished good's price differences according with this apportionment structure.
What can we do here?
Best regards,
Kamila.

Storage location not getting copied in process order for components

Dear PP Gurus,
While making a production /process order the storage location of component materials is not getting copied from material master into the process order, it is showing any default storage location.
What couls be the reason for it..
For all components it is defaulting the same storage location.
Please throw some light on the issue what could be the reasoon for it..

Dear,
System determine issue storage location from the material master, the value of the storage location of the BOM item, or the storage location from the supply area.
Check in BOM component details storage location you have defined.
Check production storage location from the plant segment of the component is taken into account for the use of MRP areas also. When planned order is being created for the superior assembly in a MRP area?
Also check the Material requirements planning (PP-MRP)
--> planning process
--> BOM explosion and dependent requirements determination
--> storage location determination for BOM explosion

How to review all process order for a month.

Hi,
I need advice to review all process order in a month in order to ensure Actual quantity usage for product (BOM) is correct without missing the quantity?
Thank you.
Br. Hadi

Hi Hadi,
Use report COOISPI with list as Components and input as process order numbers. In the output layout you can see the Requirement qty field which is qty as per process order BOM and Qty withdrawn which is the actual issue qty. From the layout you also select Pegged requirement field which display the components parent material.
You also check MB24 - Reservation List against the process order number which also display the required qty, issued qty and difference.
Thanks & Regards,

Standard costing in Process order for external operation

Hi SAP - PP gurus,
Need your expert suggestion on the current scenario. We are having a sequence of operations in a process order. One specific operation is used to trigger subcontracting activity for completion of some services.
while calculating the total planned & actual costs & variance costs for the process order as a whole , we are not getting the desired results.
The planned cost is not getting calculated or variance is not populated correctly. what might be the problem or is there any alternate solution to approaching this scenario.

I do not have an 'expert' response for you - but I can share my experience and maybe both of us will learn the 'truth' before too long.
In the external processing - indicator in the control key for a phase/operation in a recipe - when it is set, the system requires that either a Purchasing Information Record or an Outline Agreement # and Outline Agreement line item # be entered. If I enter a PIR, the data from the PIR is loaded into the external op fully. This results in a proper cost roll-up and proper processing.
If I use an Outline Agreement + Item # - the system expects me to copy all this detailed information into the remaining General Data fields (that were populated automatically when I used the PIR). I don't have to enter anything except the OA + Item numbers. But if I do not enter a price - then I, like you, get less than acceptable pricing because this operation is NOT priced (I do get a warning - this leads me to believe that SAP will not be populating these fields - the warning is to remind ME to do it --- I want the system to do it since I am specifying the OA + item numbers).
I have searched help and now have posted an OSS note for the answer to this: The PIR does what I want (it has to be created prior to application of course), but because External processing is merely a service and can't be specified by Material # and it only works per Material Group # - then I only have the chance to enter one price per Material Group - and that is insufficient in my situation (I have about 50 materials per each group and each item can have a different price). So I have to use OAs - and not having them able to trigger auto copying into the external op phase - this causes a lot of extra work and risk of data inaccuracy (mis-keying the price, etc.). There does not seem to be a fix - so I think the manual application in the ext op will be your recourse.
Let me know if you have learned more.

List of process order for particular raw material

Dear PP Gurus,
Suppose we have one raw material said - X and this is used to create finished product A, B, C an D.
Now I would like to know, In particular period how many process order is created for raw material X?
Ex. for one month only 2 process order usind raw material X are created. 1(finished product - A and 2 (finished product- B)
I tried COOISPI but not getting success.
Through MB51 I can get report of process order against which material is issued. (261 is done)
But my basic req. is to know the process order created.
I am from MM side so no much more idea in PP area.As working for SAP support we have to look little bit in PP ara.
Thanks all
Rajan

Hi Rajan,
You can use COOISPI and select Documented Goods Movement and give the Basic Start date range as you want and execute.
You can use filters in Movement types and get your desired result. 261 is for Goods issue of the components and 101 is for Goods Receipt of the header material.
Hope it clears your doubts.

Suri

Configuration for Process order for Forms

Hi,
I want to develop a layout for Process Order.
Where we will do configure Print Program & Layout for Process Order like
what we do in NACE for SD&MM related layouts!
Will this Process Order supports both SAP Script & SMART Forms!
Can anybody clarify!
Thanks,
Deep.

Hi ,
In Process order transaction ,in output options declare the form name and output type. In TNAPR table in SE11 create on row with the above o/p type and form name. I think both forms will be possible.
Actually where ever script form possible means there you can create smartform also.
Thanks.
Suma.

Process Order for Job work

BOM Explosion for Multiple Process Orders

Hi,
I hope someone can assist me with the following: Is there a report I can run or transaction I can do to have BOM explosion for multiple Process Orders? I would like to input process orders for a week and see the BOM details per PO.
Thanks

Dear Sukendar,
1.For this requirement you have to go for a Z report and you can give the Functional Spec's to prepare
this report to your ABAP consultant.Prepare the input format,logic of the program and the output format.
In the logic part you can make use of this Functional Modules's CSAP_MAT_BOM_READ or
CSEP_MAT_BOM_READ or CS_BOM_EXPLOSION or CS_BOM_EXPL_MAT_V2 .
2.Using CEWB helps you to identify all the material that's having the BOM,but here the report does not
shows you the level by level by BOM for a FERT.
Check and revert back.
