3) i want Process FLow in SOP scenario
4)what is  Planning Strategy =40

Answer 1

Raj,
1.
With T-Code C223, you can create production versions for each routing. That will have different lot sizes and validity dates.
With respect to each production version routing will be selected.
2.
Order type Dependent parameters controls the following things.
                                     a. Selection of PV: (0-Automatic, 1-Manual)
                                     b. Routing (Selection ID, Routing Selection, TL Type)
                                     c. BOM Application (PP01)
                                     d. Inspection Type
                                     e. Missing part List
                                     f. Documentation Goods movements
                                     g. Controlling data such as costing data and Result analysis Key.

Process flow for SOP ( Consolidated from different blogs and libraries)
   a. Maintain self defined information structure----MC21
                 Sales department in discussion with planning department prepares the sales plan for different product range or for
  different product groups.
   b. Create planning type----MC8A
                 Act as a template to maintain data for specific information structure. It is a customized view of planning table. You may  have one view for sales planner and another view for production planner. There is no restriction on number of planning type per info structure.
   c. Create planning hierarchy---MC61
               It is a combination of characteristics value. It provides framework for planning in flexible planning.
   d. Create product group---MC84
              A product group combines other product groups and materials according to whatever criteria best meet the needs of enterprise. Product groups are classified according to whether they are multi-level or single-level. A product group is multi-level if it contains other product groups. However, the lowest level in a product group hierarchy always consists of materials.
   e. Resources---CR01
             Resource or work center is the standard essential master data in PP module.
   f. Rough-cut planning profile---MC35
             It is a kind of resource leveling tool. One can have a visibility of target in terms of resource required to meet them. This gives the input to fine tune the target and optimize the use of resource.                                                                                Example: a product has to undergo processing in four machines. Machine three is a bottleneck operation. It is essential to check the capacity of this resource to the planned quantity. Then rough cut planning profile will be created to this resource and evaluated for capacity.
    g. Create plan in inactive version---MC81
            Sales department in discussion with planning department prepares the sales plan for different product range or for
different product groups.
   h. Disaggregate product group plan and check capacity---MC76
            Planning is done at the product group level at highest level. Now it is required to disaggregate the plan to plan the down level product group and finally the material.
   i. Version management---MC78
           "Presently the plan is available in inactive version. With this version, capacity situation is verified. If it is found
satisfactory, it may be transferred to A00 as a Active version.
    j. Transfer product group to planning---MC75
             Transferring disaggregate sales plan in to planned independent requirements i.e. planning table.
4.  
Planning Strategy 40 (Planning with Final Assembly)
This is a Make to Stock strategy.
This strategy is preferable where quantities of the finished product can be predicted.
In this strategy, existing stock is considered and sales order will consume PIRs
Following fields need to be maintained in MRP 3 view along with use of 40 strategy .
a. Consumption Mode
b. Bwd Consumption Period
c. Fwd Consumption Period
