PRODUCTION FLOW FOR MANUFACTURING COMPANY

Hi All experts,could you please share with me the production flow from raw material to profitability?I am 1st level support in my company and would like to know more about the business process for a production company.Please help and thanks in advance.

Dear,
Manufacturing is the transformation of raw materials into finished goods for sale, or intermediate processes involving the production or finishing of semi-manufactures. It is a large branch of industry and of secondary production. Some industries, like semiconductor and steel manufactureres use the term fabrication.
Production
Formal activity that adds value to goods and services, including creation, transport, and warehousing until used. Production is an organized process with specific goals.

BPM process for manufacturing company-PBL code.

I am very new to Oracle BPM and I'm currently using Oracle BPM 10g. I have done the expense report tutorial once.
And now I'm designing a process in a manufacturing company. I have a group,'items' with attributes name, pricePerItem, Quantity and Total. here Total is the product of pricePerItem and Quantity. the PBL program i wrote for it is :
amt as Decimal(3)
for each item in items do
amt = item.pricePerItem * item.quantity
     end
     return amt
I have another attribute grossamt which is the sum of the every item's total value. the PBL program for this is:
amount as Decimal(3)
amount = 0
for each item in items do
amount = amount + item.total
end
return amount
However after I run the project, the 'total' field doesnt get calculated or populated which in turn leaves the grossamt field empty. Without this my process cannot proceed.
Please let me know if there is any error in the code i wrote above.
Or if there is any other work around for the same.
Thanks a lot in advance.

There's a trick you can employ that should make this easy. When you open an attribute, notice that you have a "Virtual" checkbox. After checking this, you'll notice that under the attribute in the Project Navigator tab that there will be "read" and "write" method.
For your line item total attribute inside the group add this logic to the read() method associated with the virtual attribute:
// this sets the line item “itemTotal” attribute of a Group.
//   (defined as Virtual). This code is in the Read Access
//    method for the itemTotal attribute and
//    “pricePerItem” and “quantity” are attributes in the group
return pricePerItem * quantityFor the overall total of the order that is based on the sum of the indiviidual order item lines in the group, add this logic in the virtual "grossAmount" attribute's read() method. The logic shown below assumes that your group's name is "items" and your order line item attribute inside the group is called "total".
// this is in a Virtual attribute’s Read Access code (the sum
// of all the order line items in a group is the order’s total)
return items[ ].total.sum( )Dan

or are there any restrictions in implementing CRM leasing with OEMS?
any help here is highly appreciated.
Thanks

Additional question, In case of Operating Lease why do we split Repayment amount during Term period of the contract, in this case the lessee is not buying the Asset right, he will return the Asset to the Lessor anyways.

Need Rework flow for following manufacturing Process

Hello Experts,
i am New to PP
in one Production process, we are having 7stages. at the end of the 7th stage. we are getting finish product.
and at the end of the Each stage, we are doing Quality Inspection.
but at the end of the 4th stage, we are having major quality inspection. at that stage (Drying stage), QA Team decide, This Product able to meet all characteristics and Convert in to the powder form. if its rejected from here (Stage 4) than all mixture of liquid added in to Next batch of the production Process from Stage 3 (condensing stage).
and if possible than can you Explain me Whole work flow for this rework process ? i mean what steps should i follow to complete ths rework?
Thank you
NP

Hi,
As rightly said by Mr. Alok, you can directly add 1 more operation for Rework. Yo can directly insert operation automatically through Trigger point in production order.
For more information about Trigger point for Rework, you can check the following link.

PP/PI (PP-PI (Production Planning for Process)with Repetative Manufacturing

Hi All,
Can anybody explain what is PP-PI (Production Planning for Process Industries) - Repetative manfacturing. What is BW Developers role in this and wht types of Cubes, Extractros etc.
Please suggest me.
Thanks,
KN

Thanks for your replay.
No really I don't like to make the batch mandatory, during the good issue is not feasible inform the batch due to it is not managed in the Process Control System. Due to the behavior of PI_CONS if for batch managed materials the batch is not informed in the message or in the reservation an error is trigger. In the reservation snot feasible inform the batch because in that moment is unknown.
My question is if it is feasible some how have like FIFO batch determination when the process message is processed without creating a custom message.
Thanks in advance

Uploading Production Requirements For Finished Goods From External System To Run MRP For Components in SAP.

Hello Production Planning experts,
I'm looking to solve the current business problem:
The company bought a third party software (JD Edwards) to calculate production requirements instead of using SAP's standard Production Planning or a tool like SAP's APO. They run a batch job to query Sales Orders, Deliveries, available stock, stock in transit, etc. from sap and feed/upload it to the third party software so it can calculate the Finished Goods Production Requirements for them. They love the third party software, so replacing it is not an option. Since the third party software is already taking into account Sales Orders, Deliveries, available stock, stock in transit, etc. from SAP, it just outputs a "Finished Goods Production Schedule" by week.
My questions are:
1) What's the best way to upload something like that in SAP in the form of Planned Orders or something of that nature?
After i get that schedule in SAP:
2) Is there any way to calculate components' requirements for that "Finished Goods Production Schedule" alone? The company would like to IGNORE existing stock AND expected-goods-issues in the future (sales orders, deliveries, etc) for Finished Goods ONLY. The components calculations would work the standard MRP way, taking into account existing stock and AND expected-goods-issues in the future (sales orders, deliveries, etc)
I started looking into Master Production Schedule (MPS), but I don't know if that's the right approach since I'm not very familiar with it.
Thanks in Advance! I will gladly reward points for helpful/correct answers.

Hello Oscar
I suggest you to upload your production plan in the for of "Planned Independent Requirements" using BAPI BAPI_REQUIREMENTS_CREATE. Later, MRP will create planned orders to cover the PIRs.
If you don't want to consider the existing stock of the finished product, you should use the planning strategy 11 to create your PIRs. Take a look on the following link for more details about this planning strategy:
Gross Requirements Planning (11) - Demand Management (PP-MP-DEM) - SAP Library
Here you will find the following information:
The make-to-stock strategy gross requirements planning is particularly useful in mass production environments; it is often combined with repetitive manufacturing. This strategy is particularly useful if you need to produce, regardless of whether you have stock or not. For instance, steel or cement producers might want to use this strategy because they cannot shut down production; a blast furnace or a cement factory must continue to produce, even if this means having to produce to stock.
This strategy is also frequently used if there is a Material Requirements Planning system in a legacy system that needs to be linked to an SAP system which serves as a production execution system. The legacy system calculates a specific production plan, which has to be executed, regardless of the stock situation in the SAP system
It looks like this planning strategy is exactly what you are looking for.

Recognizing external production costs for production order

Hi Experts,
Our company is new to SAP and one issue we have not resolved is whether it is possible to attach costs to an Inspection Plan, and ultimately have these costs flow with the production order to Cost of Goods Sold (COGS).
The objective is to enable us to analyze which specific customers/products require us to incur these additional costs. Any advice you have to accomplice our objective would be appreciated.
We are a Process Industry, and many materials are sent out for external testing. These costs are significant and some customers and/or products require more testing. We currently have Inspection Plans set up for each Material that requires testing, but have not found a way to burden the material with the appropriate COGS for the external testing.
For example, if a product must be tested for the following characteristics, and each test cost is known, how do we get the test costs attached to the production order for the total of $200?
Product 1 Inspection Plan
Salmonella $70
EColi $59
Coliform $25
Yeast/Mold $46
Thank you!

Richard,
Are you able to advise which forum is the proper one for this question?
Thank you,
Esther

Wht is Process Flow for 3rd Party Sales

wht is Process Flow for 3rd Party Sales

Customize the third party sales in summary:
1. Create Vendor XK01
2. Create Material u2013 Material Type as "Trading Goods". Item category group as "BANS".
3. Assign Item Category TAS to Order type that you are going to use.
4. A sale order is created and when saved a PR is generated at the background
5. With reference to SO a PO is created (ME21N). The company raises PO to the vendor.
6. Vendor delivers the goods and raises bill to company. MM receives the invoice MIRO
7. Goods receipt MIGO
8. Goods issue
9. The item cat TAS or Schedule line cat CS is not relevant for delivery which is evident from the config and,   therefore, there is no delivery process attached in the whole process of Third party sales.
10. Billing      *-- Seema Dhar

Looking for a company to write Labview compatible software

Extech Instruments is a manufacturer of hand held test instruments (www.extech.com) . Along with our proprietary products we also import and private label a number of instruments from the far east. Many of these instruments have custom RS232 software available that allow them to communicate with a Windows XP compatible PC via the serial port.
We are looking at being able to offer these instruments with LabView compatible software/drivers? that would allow our users to integrate the instruments into their data acquisition systems.
We are looking for a company that would be able to take the existing instrument and software and do the programming so that we can offer a finished product with a LabView Compatib
le �label� on it.
If you know of such a company please let me know.
Thanks.

Hi Scott,
I am the National Manager of Neo Vista Systems Integrators Pty Ltd, a National Instruments Alliance Member. We have extensive experience in providing "LabVIEW compatible" drivers for several companies in the same position as yours - developing a package that your customers can use to communicate with custom hardware, and have a great deal of experience with liasing with National Instruments in the creation of fully compatible code and licensing. All of the technical specialists that work on driver development are National Instruments Certified LabVIEW Developers (see here for more information of the CLD qualification), so they know LabVIEW back-to-front, and as they use LabVIEW drivers themselves, they know what structures and functionality that your customers are after. I'd like to hear more about you and your application.

Are Oracle Finanicals suitable for Insurance company????

Hi,There,
I'm working for an Insurance company, now
we want to purchase accounting system,including
AP,AR,Asset,GL,HRM,CRM,I know many companies
in the manufacture or buying offices fields purchase
the Oracle Financials, so I wonder if Oracle Financials
are suitable for our company's daily operation? if
Oracle Financials are suitable for our company?
what's more, can we just purchase Financials modules?
Pls revert me,thanks a lot!
New Groupie for Oracle APP.

I'm running it in production, and have run into some issues where I recommended to management to just spring the few hundred bucks for SE.
The basic problem is it has the bugs of a first release. For my system, a few have been minor, but there has been an extreme growth of the sysaux tablespace. For me, it wound up being simplest to just make a gold backup and restore that whenever the problem manifests, but I can only do that because I can reload all new data. I have to make more gold when DDL changes.
I think the lack of bugfixes turns XE from a great idea to a bad one. It's supposed to be appropriate for environments with no DBA, but that is just plain wrong.
YMMV.

Can it be a seperate cost component structure for each company code?

Company Code No 1 Setting:
Company Code XXXX with Chart of accounts X(Quantity + Value updation in material type)
In the existing company code(XXXX) ,Cost component structure is defined as
All company code---->All Plants----> All Costing Variants -
>Cost component Structure AA
Company Code No 2 Setting:
Scenario:
Now I am creating a new company Code YYYY) which is is allowed for quantity updation alone and trying to create a product cost collector to carry out Production confirmation through Repetetive manufacturing (."Error = Cost object component split costed with Value of Zero"
Can it be possible to have a seperate cost component structure for each company Code?
Company Code YYYY with Chart of accounts Y which is different from Company code 1(Quantity alone in material type)
If possible ,Can anybody provide a procedure to do the configuration of Cost Component structure

Hello,
As I understand your question, All the thing which are releted to costing are done only at the controlling area level not at company code.
As your req diffrent cost componenet for diffrent company code is depend up on how you define the controlling area.
Hope it will clear you

Available QTY is not shown in Production Order for SemiFinished Product?

Hi
In Production Order Available Qty value is not shown for SemiFinished product ( Stock is there), but it showing the Available for other rawmaterials in same Prdn. ordr..
The SemiFinished product is manufactured and its having lot of stocks ..while i am calling this SemiFinished product in other Production order the available qty is not shown.. so how come the end user comes to know that availlable..
Giri

Hi Jey
I will explain clearly so u can come what is hapening For Ex: Item ABC having child item A,B & C.
when calling the BOM of ABC in Prodn.order its showing the available of A, B & C... But after the production over for the Semifinished product it increases the stock.
When i am calling this Semifinished Product in other Produciton Order For Ex: Item AZ having Child item ABC & XYZ.
In this Scenerio it has to show the Available of item ABC whic is semifinished product its not showing,but in the same Production order it showing the available for Other item XYZ which is purchased one .. So this is the nature of SAP or i am doing any wrong....
