Rate routing in REM

Question

Hi all,
I am working on REM and I am bit confused about scheduling and capacity data to be entered in workcenter (production line)
Specially the formulas to be entered in both the tab for REM.
1.I want to capture only Machine and labour time . suggest  the std actvity type , std value key and the formulas related to activity type for both scheduling and capacity defined for REM in the system
2. my second doubt is unlike in std routing I cant define all the operation in Rate Routing I have to define one operation for one production line. but how to define the so many operations used in one production line.
3. can I use any control key or is there any specfic control key is there for REM
4. How user will withdraw the material from store for production . like in discrete we have GI.
Regards
Mona

Answer 1

Dear Monalisa,
1.First understand how a formula works during capacity and scheduling by checking the formula in the work center,for some
base quantity,operation quantity and processing time and then choose the relevant one.
2.normally PP01 is used for inhouse produced operations.
3.In a REM scenario if required the materials(raw materials or the components) will be staged using T.Code -MF60(to
accumulate the stock in the production storage location from which the components should get backflushed).Using this the
system creates a stock transfer reservation for 311 movement for the missing parts.
Input can be the planned orders or production orders or else directly for the BOM explosion with the required quantity of the
header material.Once the stock transfer reservation is done,the same can transferred using MF65.
