Production Flow

Is this the flow for production
1.Sales and Operations Planning SOP
2.Master Production Scheduling MPS
3.Material Requirement Planning MRP
4.Planned Order
5.Production Order(is Production order and Purchase order same?)
6.Purchasing (is this related to Material Management)
a.Requisition
b.Vendor Selection
c.PO sent
d.Goods receipt
e.Invoice Verification
f.Payment to Vendor
Correct me if iam wrong.

Dear Gopi,
follw these steps :
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.
Purchase and production both r different :
Purchase order refer to external procurement where as production order refers to in house procurement.

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.

Required Overlapping VS Continuos Flow Production

Hi SAP Experts,
I have a few questions regarding the overlapping indicator in routing as below:
1. What is the difference between "Required Overlapping" & "Continous Flow Production" indicator in routing? I have tested with both indicator but still cannot see the logic behind on how APO scheduled the orders based on these indicators.
2. Is it a must to maintain both "overlap time" & "Send ahead quantity" in the routing if I select either "Required Overlapping" or "Continous Flow Production"? Or, I can just maintain either of them?
3. If my planned order's quantity is less than the send ahead quantity set in the routing, there will be a gap between 0010 Produce End Time with 0020 Setup Start Time. Is this a APO standard behavior?
4. Refer to question (2), if the answer is yes, is there any way so that the APO will schedule the operation back to back if the planned order quantity is less than the send ahead quantity without any gap in between?
Thanks.

Hooi Chia

Hi Santosh.A,
Yes, overlaps in routing is integrated with APO. The changes on overlap indicator in ECC routing is reflecting in APO PDS. I have tested the overlap scenarios for both "Required Overlapping" & "Continous Production Flow" and both are working in APO. But, I do not understand the difference of these 2 indicator. Moreover, there is a gap between my 1st operation Produce End Time & 2nd operation setup start time if my order quantity is less than the send ahead quantity set in the routing.
Please help to clear my doubts.
Below are the examples of scheduling result for overlapping, overlapping set at operation 0010:

Product ID doesn't have leading zeros

Hi,
In the table CRMD_SRV_REFOBJ, some of the product ID has leading zeros and some of the product doesn't have leading zeros. Any idea why it is happening like that?

Hi,
Please check it the products base table COMM_PRODUCT. If you find similar set of values, then issue could be with programs creating Product IDs.
Usually Products flows from ECC, also possiblility to be created in CRM too. So, the check the Badi impli CRM_EQUI_LOAD for flow from ECC.
Hope this helps.

Inventory in production

Hi.
Can anybody help me by recommendation from your experience, how you have realized inventory of unfinished products.
Were you developing additional functionality based on Production Orders?

Eduard,
I think that your problem has nothing to do with SAP, but rather with the way you manage components on the shop floor.
I guess that at the moment the components are all over the place, and in different stages of assembly, and thats why you need to be able to count them from time to time, to correct the records to the fact (as you've said). Also, I guess that you backflush the components at the end of production.
Now, there is an alternative approach; you'll have to judge if you can use it in your shop. Instead of making the components available on the floor at all times and quantity, kit to order. It means that you have a closed storage of these components, and you issue them to production only based on production order reservation. This way the stock in the store is accurate at all times, and there's not really need to count anymore, since every order got exactly what it needs. This leads to tighter control of the components in the production flow.
If it doesn't make sense to work this way for all components, then you can have some common C parts as bulk material on the floor.
Another approach is to use KANBAN to supply components to the floor, and keep the backflushing concept. With KANBAN you just don't need to frequently count WIP, because the supply is not provided by MRP, thus not depending on accurate stock. Once in a while, for financial allignment, you "clean up" the floor (maybe once a year or quarter), and do "0" count (easy).

UUT flow control in manufactiring

Hello colleagues,
I would like to implement a system to control the UUT flow in the manufacturing.
I think some companies call it CIM or PCS.
For know, what I need is to certify that no untested units will be shipped. In addition, I would like to certify that all units of part number "A" will be tested in the test stattions "A1", "A2", "A3", in this sequence.
My test programs are creating a local file with the UUT test result. I need upload it in a database and to control the product flow.
My company is small size, so we don't have a CIM team to implement this control system (database, UI for tracking queries etc).
Please tell me if you know some software that implement this functions. Is there some open source software what implements it?
Regards
Marcio

I'm not aware of any open source software but I've never really looked for any. It sounds like TestStand might suit your needs.

Flowing Grouped objects

Hi All,
I am working on a product catalog in InDesign 6 and need some help flowing grouped objects (2 images and 1 text frame) through a 3 column 2 row layout. How do I set it up so when I add more products/grouped objects the current products flow to the next cell or even next page? I'm stuck! Any help on this would be greatly appreciated!

Use anchor object to anchor image to text, then when move text the image move with it.

Continuous production system

Hi,
i am working in a production environment where, production process is Continuous.
like there will not be batch wise production, production process keep on running and the component items will be consumed regularly and the finished goods will be produced on continuous basis.
being there is no planned qty for the finished goods, there will not be planning for components to be issued. it is a round the clock process, how to map this in B1

Hi Nagaraju,
Production Flow
1. Raw Material -> Production Order-> Production Order (Planned)
2. Production Order (Released)->Manual (Issue Component)->Issue for Production (Issue from stock).
3. Production Order (Released)->Report Completion->Receipt From Production (Enters in Stock)->Production Order (Closed).
4. If Raw Material is back flushed then -> Production Order (Released)->Report Completion->Back flush (Automatic Issue Component).
Production Order Process
1. Issue a production order.
By default the order opens with Planned status.
2. Create production orders either automatically from MRP Recommendations, or manually according to Sales Orders.
3. An authorized staff member changes the status of the production order to Release.
Once released, the production order is available to shop floor staff.
4. Release the child items (with a manual issue method) from inventory using the Issue for Production method.
Child items with a backflush issue method are issued automatically for the production order.
5. Report the completion of the parent item in the Receipt from Production Window.
6. Change the production order status to Closed.
You can do this at any time Planed Quantity Change of Production Order.
You can do this at any time Issue Quantity Change of Production Order as per your requirement.
May it will help you for further discussion.
Thanks,

Search data into ResultSets to genrate a complex report

Hi,
I am writing a report called "Product Flow". The report headings are follows
prodcode prod name opening qty purchase_qty sales_qty closing_qty
=============================================================
To achieve this, I need to know the products, their opening qty, their purchase qty, sales qty and finally I will I will calculate the closing stock.
All this information is into different tables. I want to create 4-5 resultsets and then take the prodcut's resultset and scroll into it, take product one by one and then search its details into other resultset of opening, purchase and sales resultsets
How can I do it with resultsets? can anyone guide me? I am very much new for Java.
Thanks
OMkar

Dear,
Evenif I use SQL join. While designing the report finally, do I not have to write some code to compare and search some data into various resultsets or some kind of collections?
For example, in the above report, when I want to display report on screen, I will have to take the list of product and then search its values into tables and display it on the screen. So for this, do I not have to take the resultset of product table (rs) which will give me a list of product.
use while (rs.next()) >
take each product code
search the values in other resultsets (to search these values in actual table may be time consuming becasue of huge size of table. If there are 500 products in the table, I will have to use the table for 500 times using SQL.
Finally display the report on screen.How can I get more information about the collection type of resultset as u mentioned in the first reply? I will read the tutorials on SQL joins as you suggested and see if I can use it for this report.
Thanks for the reply. I would high appreciate if you can guide me to achieve my aims of project I am doing my studies.

How to track the material in WIP stage

Hi all,
our product flows in differt stages from raw material to finished product. For example first it goes to Melting,than to foundry,than forging and lastly it goes to machine shop from where we get the finished product.
my requirement is I want a way to track the material in this WIP stage. where this material is datewise or if now i want to know at which stage (melting , foundry , forging, machine shop ) the material is, how can I find ?
Is there any std report for this?
Regards
Kumar

Hi,
Unfortunately no such report was available in SAP.
But SAP has introduced EHP4 to address the requirement.
Follow the link given,
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/20ff2779-f9d3-2b10-9dab-e9d84c5953c5?quicklink=index&overridelayout=true
You will have to activate the 'Work in Process Batches (WIP Batch)' functionality in EHP4.
Or else go for some develop report for the WIP.
Hope this helps you.

Campaign Optimization using RFM Analysis

I'm interested in the tools offered by BI for the RFM Marketing Analysis (Recency, Frequency, Monetary Value Analysis). I've read this information:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/c5/bd493b13bab710e10000000a11402f/frameset.htm
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_crm40/helpdata/en/d3/11b71b8182ed4995eaad3dc644c771/frameset.htm
I understand that the all process needs a CRM deployment as well as BI. However I'm wondering if this kind of scenario can be implemented without a full CRM installation. In particular I'd need to use an Internet Sales - BI landscape.
When calculating the Response Rate, I have to determine the Addressed Business Partners. One way to provide this data is using the ODS object Campaign/Target Group/Business partner Assignements
(<a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/36/df333bf1047532e10000000a114084/content.htm">0CRM_TGCT</a>). This object is filled by data from the CRM application. Is it possible to take data from Internet Sales instead?
Otherwise, can you briefly explain the Intelligent Web Analytics feature of Internet Sales? I know it requires BI. How are the two application integrated?
At http://www.sap.com/solutions/business-suite/crm/internetsales/featuresfunctions/index.epx I read:
Take advantage of a broad range of Web analytics that enable you to track online sales, capture customer behavior, analyze Web site metrics, and improve online sales performance.
What kind of customer behavior characterization is offered by these Web analytics?
Cheers, Davide

Prem
The PP/DS Optimiser has quite a few restrictions associated with it, and can cause unpredictable results if any of these restrictions are met. See SAP Note 712066 for full details as I am not sure of the exact conditions you are trying to optimise. The key one may be:
The campaign optimization is based on the bottleneck resources. There must be no direct or indirect time link (in the form of constraints or material dependencies) between the operations or orders that are planned on the bottleneck resources. In particular, bottleneck resources may be used only once in the production flow.
Hope this helps

Can I run adobe master collection in a windows partition on a basic mbp 13" with only the intel chipset?

can I run adobe master collection in a windows partition on a basic mbp 13" with only the intel chipset?
I want to install 16 gb ram but I don't think I can change the lack of video card. I wanted this basic machine because it has fairly long battery life. I don't need or want retina at this time. My model is the mid 2012 model. I am running the adobe collection for mac, I want to run the windows versions. Is it possible? What is the most ram I could access using something like fusion 5, assuming I could get fusion 5 to work? would it refuse to run because of the intel chipset and lack of video card?
If I'm wrong and there is a way to add a video card to this model, could some version of fusion and windows 7 access more than 2 gb operating ram?
What cost would I be incurring, and would it be cheaper to buy a windows laptop with more ram than I could access via a virtual machine?
I want to work on a client's work in the windows versions of the creative suite, with occasional usage of after effects for windows, and to use some web plug-ins only available in windows versions, and to try some windows-only video and audio software.
thanks for any suggestions. While many people have told me I can run everything on my macbook, I am concerned about what I think is a limited amount of ram that can be accessed over the virtual machine partition softwares, and I don't know if what I want to attempt is actually possible.
My mbp os is 10.8.2 on a 2.5 GHz intel core i5 4 gb 1600MHz DDR3 with 500 hard drive. the basic 13" mid 2012 machine.
I'm hoping to install 16 G of opertating ram to allow more adobe programs to run concurrently- just when I am working on the mac side.
also, off track but, for years I have wanted a small machine that is more easily portable than my 15" machines. I have only had this used machine for a few weeks, but already I have been very satisfied and used it for presentations at clients. I don't want an air because I really want the dvd burner and player. No matter what apple says about wireless, there are decades of legacy work stored on optical discs all over the world, and I don't want to be unable to open something at a client's office because I don't have a dvd drive. Additionally, I have very large files I want to transfer via ethernet or firewire so that the transfer will take less time and be more secure than wifi. I resist apple's trend to make every machine a disposable toy that is viable only a year or so. I have read reviews that label the mbp it a poor value compared to the air. If all you need to do is text and communicate via wifi, many devices will sufice, and an air is certainly the most elegant. But what about the cost of large ssd's and protecting the drive against damage from shock? I want to be able to move this thing around and the small size is much safer inside my padded bag when I sit in narrow airplane seats, crowded trains and other congested spaces. I am much more likely to be able to borrow a large screen in a client's office ( with the use of one of the three adapters I had to buy) than to be able to borrow a dvd drive that has drivers for mac os 10.8.2. I suspect this may be the last generation of machines that have optical drives and ethernet, and that was why I purchased it so that I could continue to do work into the next few years. I am impressed by the retina display, but I need long battery life. And as beautiful as the retina display is, it is even more of a problem when trying to cross platform with the windows world. I wish I could infuence apple to do a trial product flow for a machine designed to work with 80% of the business world that uses windows. How spectacular that would be. With all their expertise and adept hardware design, to create a machine that cross platforms better than a windows machine itself works? Now that would be an accomplishment. Instead of 8 or 9 percent of the total computer sales, why not aim for a higher percentage? Smart devices will keep moving toward portable computers in power, anyway.

Fusion should work on your machine and if you put 16 GB of RAM in (see http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/Apple_MacBook_MacBook_Pro/Upgrade/DDR3_160 0MHz_SDRAM), Fusion can access a good portion of that. Also, in a Virtual Machine, the guest OS is presented with Fusion's video card emulation, not what's in hardware on your Mac. Of course, finding Windows 7 now that Win 8 has been released could take some doing and the Win 8 Pro upgrade price is supposed to jump to $200 the end of the month. Add that to the price of Fusion and the extra RAM and you're beginning to get into the realm of low end real PC's.
As to cross platform, I assume you're aware of BootCamp (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1461).

Email account and Internet service not working after migration onto a new (upgraded 3rd party) 2012 MBP. Hardware or software issue.

I just purchased a refurb Mac Book Pro from the Apple on-line store. When I received the machine (serial number) I purchased 3rd party (OWC) parts. All of these were installed by the authorized, local Apple repair store I have had excellant results with past issues with my 2006 MBP. The parts installed are: 16 meg ram, 240 SSD and a 1 T installed replacing the optical drive.
Feeling ready now, I had the Apple store do the migration from my 2006 MacBook Pro (OS 10.6.8) over to the 2012.
When trying to get the new machine into the production flow, I cannot get email to work. It will launch but I cannot access accounts.
During the One to One, then moved over to the Genius Bar appointment, they reentered the account(s) data. Nothing.
Also at this time they noticed that the Internet connection was not working.
A new internet account was set up and it worked. They (Genius) launched email and the Internet connection crashed. This was repeated about 5 times.
The computer was left with Apple to reinstall the OS (10.8) - their best suggestion as a fix and I have now had a call to say that the install did not correct the problem. Now they are questioning the install of the 3rd party parts as the possible problem.
I'm to go back into the Apple store to discuss the next steps.
I would really, really appreciate anyones thoughts / suggestions on this problem. Is it software or hardware? Should I re-install the original ram and 500 m hard drive to start over with the migration? I'll be honest here and state - I'm not a technician in computers or this side of technology. That is why I have reliable parties do the install and trouble shoot. Not a comfortable feeling being at their mercy.
Advanced thanks to all who believe they have answers.

Back from the Apple store with my 2012 MacBook Pro.
After one re-install of the OS - no better - a clean install was performed - purging all of the data that they had migrated over from my 2006 MBP last week.
The belief is, that the migrated data from my 2006 MBP was too great of a leap for the new 10.8. My (a lot) software was too dated and there in was a "blip" of some sort in some / one of the programs.
So - all of the OWC parts and pieces that I had installed are not the issue - as they all show up on the About this Mac - and other things are functional. Yeah.
I now have my 2012 back (with upgrades) in the original form (OS and programs) and I will start a one by one migration of programs that I do need and use. Being cautious not to make one large transfer.... weeding out programs that will no longer be needed or will work on the OS 10.8. I will manually set up the email accounts one by one.
Fingers crossed.

Best program to monitor time spent on FCP, Motion, Soundtrack Pro?

I run a small company as a free lance doc-film maker and was wondering if anyone could recommend the best program for keeping track of time spent working on Final Cut Pro, Motion, and Soundtrack Pro projects for my clients.
I'd like a program that tracks how long I spend on each Final Cut Studio application, like that I can itemize my billing to clients...so many hours spent editing in FCP, doing effects in Motion, even internet research on Safari when looking for photographic/film archives.
Thanks very much in advance to anyone who can help me,
- Nicholas

In general I'd say a spreadsheet or text document and your own diligence are close enough to get an idea, as charging for the time spent in software isn't going to make you a lot of money.

Transfer liquidity status subsidiaries to Headquarter CM liquidity forecast

In headquarters we have SAP Cash management with liquidity forecast FF7B. In some subsidiaries we have also SAP Cash management with liquidity forecast, other subsidiaries have SAP ECC but without Cash Management active. I understand with customizing of the distributed landscape in both headquarteru2019s and subsidiariesu2019 SAP Cash management headquarters can receive the cash management data (inflows and outflows from purchase orders and payments for vendor invoices, sales orders and customer payments, some TRM product flows, bank account balances) via FI-ALE and idoc types CMSND CMRCV.
Are there other options for getting the liquidity status like: Treasury Workstation (is still this available in ECC 6.0?, where is the customizing, what are the user transaction codes?),
What are the options for transferring the liquidity status if doing the customizing of SAP Cash management liquidity forecast in the subsidiaries SAP system is not an option?
What are the options if the subsidiary does not have SAP ECC? For example manual data entry by subsidiary in a SAP portal made with BPS/IP/BPC?

Hi,
Treasury workstation is still available in ECC. However in treasury workstation also, the similar settings for transfer of data through ALE is only available. You do the settings in under distributed systems inside cash management. You push the details from the subsidiary system to the head office system. However I don't think the standard setup will support data entry other than SAP. If you are using liquidity planner (long term liquidity management solution), you can use data entry through BI individually in each of the subsidiaries.

Ravi
