Question regarding Phantom assembly

Hi
I need to raise a rpoduction order for a material A . I need to supply B and C to produce A which in turn are In House produced materials.Do I make B and C as phantom assembly and instead of raising 3 production orders i can only raise 1

1. Hi In your case you cannot make the same since B&C are not phantom,
2. The are real materials -  you need to procure them or prodcue them to have the C produced.
For example - in case before you make A you assemble B + C as X and then you do some operation to get A..
in such case your X becomes a logical grouping so you can make X as phantmo material . So when you create the demand for A the requirement will be directly passed on to B and C.
3. Only in such condition you need to make phantom..
i have the strucuture below.
Parent -Mat A
intemittennt =X
comp1=MatB
Comp2=MatC

  • Problem with Phantom Assembly

    Hi expert,
    I have question with BOM and production process. In packaging industry, At start we have 8 components for finish goods. but recently, 2 component 0020 and 0030 (example bottle cap and sticker) will issue from warehouse for assembly process before return to warehouse. then re-issue to use for finish goods.
    usually component 0020 and 0030 will convert to another component or change to semi-finish goods.i must create this BOM , Routing , and Open Production Order.and change component in finish goods, 
    if i not create BOM , Routing , and open Production Order. but create new component as semi-finish goods for item from assembly process to use in finish goods BOM as phantom assembly.
    how is my resolution, possible or impossible? , will be any problem in the future. any advise is good.
    regards,
    kittisak.

    Hi,
    There are 2 possibilities in this case.
    If you do not want to make stock of your HALB then make this as Phantom and include the assembly operations (manufacturing operations) in the header level material so that the activities will be captured at the Time of FERT confirmations.
    If you want to make a track of the stock for re issue from Warehouse then no other way.
    You should maintain it as HALB with BOM nad Routing, Pl. Order and Production Order route to capture the stocks and issue it to FERT production.
    Hope this clarifies..

  • Collective Orders with Phantom assembly

    HI experts,
    Required clarity on following scenario urgently.
    Material                                                Proc Type                             Special Proc
    A                                                                 E
    B(BOM item for A)                                       E                                             52
    C(BOM item for B)                                        E                                              50(phantom)
    C1(BOM item for c)                                        E                                             52
    When we are creating the production order for A,respective production orders for B and C1 is genrated.
    Now when we are confirming the production order for C1,GI of c1 to B is happening and also for C! production order it is giving the DLV status.Up to this the scenario working fine.
    But when we are confirming the production order for B,the GI for production order A and DLV status for production order B has to happen,BUt it is not happening.
    Can anyone throw some light on this. Expecting reply at the earliest.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi
    ritesh,
    It is not the question of control key.
    But the error is coming at the time of goods movement,we can see the description of it in "cogi".
    "ERROR IN DEPENDENT GOODS MOVEMENT."
    Because For 'c1',After confirming the order for 'C1',it will do the GR for 'C1'and GI of 'C1'to 'B' production order.
    Up to this it is working fine.But the same when I am trying for 'B'production order,After confirmation the GR for'B'is not happning And the Issue of B to 'A' production order is not happening.
    And in COGI the above error is coming.
    I want to know weather this problem occuring because of phantom assembly with collective order.
    Hope this will clear the problem understanding.

  • Phantom assembly quantity change in production order

    Hello experts,
    We are producing 1 type of goods, but for 2 different customers. each of them has their own specification for packaging. as per system it was decided to not create another finished goods partnumber with additional BOM, but instead we created 2 phantom assemblies in 1 BOM. 1 of them is the main (for customer 1), another one is alternative (for customer 2).
    Now the idea was that whenever Purchasing is maintaining materials in production orders they were supposed to switch quantity from main phantom assembly to alternative phantom assembly whenever goods were required for customer 2.
    We quickly tested the possibility of quantity change on our test server, but not entirely. the thing is, that for some reason you can change phantom assembly required quantity only if it's already has required quantity higher than 0. otherwise the item is greyed out and you can't perform any changes in it.Same happens if you simply reduce required quantity of phantom assembly item to 0. once you do so - the item becomes greyed out as well.
    So, the question is - is it some kind of settings in BOM\MMD that prevents user from changing quantities for phantom assemblies (and if it is - where exactly you can change it), or it's something else (like i dunno, maybe user authorization issue or something).
    Any help will be appreciated.
    P.S. - i know that you can still simply remove entire item from production order and put it back with quantities and etc., but that way of work has higher risk of making a mistake.

    Dear ,
    Couple of points on this issue which may help you understand the problem  : Bom Explosion With Phantom Assemblies will happen based on the following set up .
    1. You need to maintain the special procurement key-50 for the phantom Assembly
    in the MRP 2 View of the material master
    2. We can override the Phantom Assembly Setting by defining in SPRO --->
    Define Explosion Types so that MRP Creates Procurement Propasals for the
    Phantom Assembly itself.ie We can Swith off the Phantom Assembly Settings.
    This settting need to be defined in the BOM Item details screen in the Basic
    Data Tab Page under MRP Area.
    So check in your Bom whether switch off phantom assembly is defined.Make the Explosion Type-Blank
    3.Run MRP Single Item - Multi level - Transaction MD02 with Planning Mode 2 : 'Re-explode BOM and Routing'. The Phantom Item will now get exploded correctly in the Planned Order.
    4.Check the Validity of the BOM  and planning date
    5.Check the MRP4 set up in FG where you have kept the BOM/Routing selection
    6.Check wether dependent requirement  material master -MRP4 view -MRP  for Depent Requ should be blank .
    Check the above points and come back

  • Phantom assembly confirmation

    if I have an Product, and in its BOM there is a phantom assembly item which has its own routing. Question is, can i confirm also the operations for that phantom assembly? How is confirmation done, when there is only one production order (which is for the Product itself)

    Hello,
    Yes it's same, you have to move all the operations of the phantom material routing to the header material, then only those operations are used for scheduling, costing puposes.
    Even in costing system will not consider the phantom routing for the cost calculation when co is doing with qty. struc.
    They will encounter problem.
    so make sure that there is no routing for the phaantom materials and all the operations are moved to the header material.
    Regards,
    Manick.

  • Pull list for the component of the phantom assembly

    Hi
    I am in rem process. while doing the pull list for the fianl product using Entry with bom explosion.
    i did not get the components (level 3)for 1 assembly(level 2 ) which is phantom one under the final product (level 1) BOM.
    i also maintained the production stor loc for the components and the phantom assmy.
    i check the stock in the production storage location . no stock is there in the location.
    what is the problem . how to get the component of the phantom in the pull list.

    Dear Raj,
    If your FERT contains a HALB and inturn this HALB contains say HALB1 which is a phantom assembly
    and and another 2 raw materials means,when you execute MF60 For HALB,you will get the 2 raw
    materials along with the component's of phantom assembly.
    Check and revert back.

  • Phantom assembly

    I want to understand phantom assembly concept..
    I have gone through sdn and find this answer to be understandable..
    Phantom Assembly:
    A logical grouping of materials.
    A phantom assembly is created in engineering to describe a number of components and manage them
    as a whole. The components in a phantom assembly are immediately placed in the superior assembly.
    Components in an assembly are first assembled to produce the header material. Then header material
    is placed in the superior assembly.
    Example
    The phantom assembly "set of wheels" contains the components "front wheel" and "rear wheel." The front and rear wheels are immediately placed in the "bicycle" assembly. The "light" assembly contains the materials "bulb" and "reflector." The light components are first assembled and then the light is attached to the bicycle.
    Settings to be done:
    For configurations settings goto OPPQ for maintaining the values of special.key
    Special procurement key value 50 must be set in the MRP2 view of the material master.
    For the materials for which sp.procurement value 50 is set the system creates the planned orders and
    purchase requisitions for the components of the phantom assembly.
    Regards
    Mangalraj.S
    But can anybody tell me, In the above where should we maintain the sp prc key 50.. In the fron wheel or in the rear wheel...
    Pls explain me..

    Hi,
    "In the above where should we maintain the sp prc key 50.. In the fron wheel or in the rear wheel..."
    For this you need to create an logican assy new mat no in MMR.ex: xxxxx for which components are rear wheel  - Rxxx, front wheel  - Fxxx ..
    Assign 50 in mrp 2 view of assy xxxxx material .
    now this xxxxx material is phantom assy.
    when you run MRP for FG this phantom assy will get explode and dependent req will be created for Rxxx and Fxxx directly with out creating planned order for xxxxx mat..
    come back futher if you have any doubt.
    regards

  • Phantom Assembly Reporting Point Backflush - Not able to backflush

    We are unable to generate a backflush of the assembly components of a phantom assembly.  The backflush indicator in the operation have been activated and the components involved are production relevant.
    In the material master, i believe the REM Profile has been set correctly to allow for backflushing of the asseblies.
    Am I overlooking something to have this work properly? 
    Any thoughts are much appreciated!
    Thanks All!

    Dear suntevea,
    Generally Production confirmation is not made for phantom assemblies either in Discrete or REM scenario.
    So once when you do the confirmation for the upper level assembly where this phantom assembly is used
    as a component,then at this point the good's issue(backflush) will be happening for the component's of the
    phantom assembly.
    Eg : Material A is a phantom assembly which is made up of components say B & C.
    Again material A is a component for making another assembly say X,so when you do the backflushing in
    MFBF for material X,you can see the components B & C are getting issued,which means Good's issue will
    be happening for B & C,261 movement.
    I hope you will be clear with the concept.
    Revert back if you need any further assistance.

  • Phantom, Assembly, Reference Operation Set

    Hi All,
            I am always having a little confusion with follwoings, so could you please help me to understand clearly will be grateful.
    What is Phantom ?
    What is Assembly ?
    What is the difference between Phantom & Assembly ?
    What is Reference Operation Set ?
    What is the difference between Routing and Reference Operation Set ?
    At which situation Reference Operation Set is used instead of Routing in SAP?
    Thanks in Advance

    Hi Madhan,
    Phantom
    Phantom assembly is a logical grouping of material.
    Design point of view it is assembled.
    Physically not assembled, but logically it is assembled.
    Ex: CAR
    BOM Header: CAR
    Item: ENGINE
    For ENGINE: Items are cylinder, piston, crankshaft....Here engine is phantom... while manufacturing car, engine is mandatory so if u assign engine as phantom it won't create planned order for engine. We can direct issue the materials (such as cylinder, Piston, CS) to car; by that time it reduces the work of issue and receiving goods to engine assembly.
    But if u want engine as spare parts that time u can create planned independent requirement for engine and u can stock as ordinary processes...
    In material master of MRP 2 view spl. procurement key - 50.
    or Assign in BOM item - make tick mark in phantom assmbly.
    If you create in material master wherever the material, system consider as a phantom.
    If you mark in BOM, only that particular BOM, system consider as a phantom.
    There is no stocking of phantom material

  • Planning at Phantom Assembly Level (59)

    SAP help says that backflush of components should be enabled and flushed together.e.g in 1st operation.

  • Phantom assembly backflush

    If my header material is phantom assembly then can we backflush the phantom aeembly , not the components of that specific assembly?

    Hi,
    Why this situation arises?
    If the header material is directly flowing into the next level asembly then we can go with Phantom Material concept. The convrsion activities can be included in the higher level assembly for the phantom.
    If you want to backflush the Phantom then you need to keep the stock of it..
    If that is the case then, it is not a Phantom.
    One more thing is it is not logical to have Routing for the Phatom Matrial.
    But, in SAP, you can do what you want..(either with Customizing or source code change).
    I hope the implications are clear to you..

  • Mrp for phantom assembly

    Dear Gurus
    My main item is a phantom assembly the sales order comes for the phantom assembly only.I have got a multilevel bom for this phantom assembly .The bom of the phantom assembly contains the semifinished item. And the bom of the semifinished item contain raw materials.Now while running MRP I dont want any planned orders to be generated for phantom assembly the system should create planned order for semifinished item and purchase requisition for raw material.How can it be done.

  • Phantom Assembly Planned Order in APO

    Sub : Incorrect quantity and Bucket for component in scenario of Phantom Assembly
    Hi Gents,
    I am using the Optimizer planning run for a scenario with Phantom assembly.
    The master data has been used below
    Material u2013 862700 (Finished goods)
                    1091895 (Phantom assembly maintained for above FG)
    Location - 8501
    Planning Book - ZAL_SNP_PB_BG
    Data View - ZAL_SNP_DV_BGF
    Optimizer profile - ZAL_OPT_01
    I have entered a demand for above FG on 22.02.2012 and running a optimizer by selecting both FG and Phantom assembly. As a result the optimizer has created the planned order for FG from 18th to 22nd Dec. 2012. The advancement of the planned order is due to production capacity constraint.  When i analysed System has created  planned order for phantom assembly in last two buckets of the planning book and heneceforth  the component requirement it is appearing only on last 2 buckets of the planning book. The date for this dependent demand is 28th and 29th Feb.2012 and the quantity is also wrong for the components as per the BOM.
    The result I am expecting as system should create the planned order and dependent demand for the component maintain below phantom assembly should be same FG planed order date and quantity of component should also give the right requirement as per the BOM.     
    Thanks in advance,
    Regards,

    HI Ipsita,
    Did you try running it form SE38.
    SE38 because in SE37 it is not necessary to give all the parameters..
    But in SE38 you need to pass all the values required & Check form there.
    Also you can check the details in PLAF-Table.

  • Planned order is not creating for a phantom assembly

    Dear experts
    My fert having two semi finished components
    first semifinished is assigned with a raw material
    And second semifinished is assigned with two different raw material
    in material master of second semifinished mrp2 view Special procurement=50
    and after running mrp, second semifinished is not getting any planned order or dep requirement all the raw material under this getting planned order
    But in my understanding of phantom second semifinished in should not get any planned order?
    Am  i correct?
    Pls advise me where i need to check
    Abu Fathiam

    Hi,
    Phantom assembly will generate planned order for its component when you will maintain:
    Procurement type: E
    Special procurement type: 50
    Also in SPRO: OPPQ BOM explosion
    Also check in BOM In basic data tab
    In MRP Data screen, check explosion type- are you maintained phantom assembly off? Check it if you want planned order.
    If you don't want system generated planned order for your phantom assembly component you should not maintain this indicator.

  • Phantom Assembly not exploding in production order

    We are using phantom assembly as a BOM component.
    When we create a planed order from MD03 or MD02 and try to convert this planed order to production order the components of Phantom assembly are not explode in production order. When I tried with read PP master data option it get explode.
    Can you please let me know the reason?
