Repetitive manufacturing

I have a knowledge question regarding collective entry of confirmations using repetitive manufacturing u2013 transaction MF42N.
Is there an option to get data from planning table (MF50) pre-selected to simplify final backflushing such as:
Preselect all planned orders (PE) of a defined plant for a pre-selected planned production date or all materials with planned orders for a defined planned production date shall be pre-selected.
I donu2019t see an option to preselect open planned orders for backflushing .
I only see the option to manually enter either material or planned order for each single planned quantity from planning table.
It is vital for the central kitchen food production process to be as simple as possible.
Whatever can be pre-selected improves usability of this process for Retailers significantly.

Hi,
Your thought of having pre-select data like Planned Orders (PE) for a particular period in MF42N is really a good one... but I don't see any user exit/anything available for this.
But this could be achieved by developing a custom report, in which you can first fetch data like Planned Orders for a particular period and then provide those details to MF42N through a BAPI.
Again not sure how feasible it would be...

Can we use batch management in repetitive manufacturing?

Can we use batch management in repetitive manufacturing?
If not, can we use classification or something else?
or what else options we have.
Thnx!

why not?

Cost of finished product repetitive manufacturing

Hi,
My clients produces 5 different finshed products always. I want to map the scenario in Repetitive manufacturing.
Is it possible in REM to get the actual cost of production of 5 products separately?? fir example can i get cost of finished product 1 as Rs200, in the month of Jan2009 for 10 quantity, cost of finished product 2 in the month of Jan2009 for 5 quantity etc etc .
Regards.

Thanks to all for their valuable inputs.
Dear Mangalraj: Its really a challenge for me to decide whether to go for REM or not. The reason why I am not going for discrete is :
1. Client doesnt know how much of ( for example) fertilizers it issues for finished 1 or finished 2 . client says he knows that in a month how much he has used for example 100 kg of fertilizers in total, not on basis of finished goods. So, i think i will have problem during BOM creation and goods issue in particular.
2. Since finished products are rose plants, jasmine plants etc, client says i dont how much to do Goods reciept. few plants may still be not ready to be able to do goods reciept.Client says its very difficult for me to count flower plants everyday and then say out of 1000, 10 are ready to be done Goods reciept and 15 are dead so these should be scrapped etc.
These are the resons why i thought it to map to REM. But client also wants to know price of each plant , means whats the price of rose plant(per plant), price of jasmine plant( per plant).
Request you all to throw some light on this..
Regards.

Production Order in Repetitive Manufacturing

Hi All,
We are using REM scenarios. But we need to use the Production order for some material in the same plant where we are already using REM.
Is it possible to use both Discrete and REM for the same material but at different periods? Using Discrete for some period and switching over to REM. Is there is anyway to use the above mentioned scenario.
Kindly suggest.
Regards,
Sureshbabu G.

Hi,
As we know that In Repetitive Manufacturing, components are often staged at the production line without reference to a particular order.
To create the demand program again for your production order, you must define the planning strategy for a product. Planning strategies represent the methods of production for planning and manufacturing or procuring a product. and run the scenario accordingly.

WIP FOR REPETITIVE MANUFACTURING WITH VALUATED SALES ORDER

Dear All,
We are in the process of implementing Repetitive manufacturing with valuated sales order(MTO). I want to clarify whether in this scenario WIP will be generated.
Since, at the time of final backflushing, what ever GR done for finished goods, the GI for its components will be done automatically. The components will be issued based on the BOM. I think in this scenario WIP will not be there.
Please tell me whether i am correct.
regards
ranga

Thanks. I have another scenario. My client wants to transfer all cost of HR,Admin, finance etc and other indirect production cost center cost to production cost center. I mean they want to charge on the product. I have to production cost center. Client will give me the basis for allocating the cost. I have to do assessment and distribution for cost allocation
But, I want to clarify how do i include the admin, hr or finance and indirect production cost center cost in cost component structure if i do the above process.
How to do the cost splitting.

In Process Inspection for Repetitive Manufacturing

Hi All,
I'm trying to perform in-process inspection for repetitive manufacturing. I have a semi finished material which has the inspection type 13 activated in the material master. Rate routing for it has also been created. Characteristics have been assigned to its operation and the routing is attached to a production version. When I o to MFPR to create a lot, I specify the material, plant and production version with QM active (tried the other 2 options as well) but when I execute, nothing shows up in the list. When I click on create inspection lot, it says, "either select versions or place cursor on versions now" but there's nothing in the list?

Bilal

Hi,
Please check whether the repetitive manufacturing check box and REM profile is defined in the MRP4 of material master.
Please define that and try to run the transaction MFPR.
It should solve your problem

Repetitive Manufacturing Scenario

Dear All,
I would appreciate it if you can provide me with a FLOW of REM, a walkthrough guide with transactions to test the REM scenario and pre-requisites of each transaction.
Thank you

Dear,
Reporting Point Rem
Steps are as,
1)You must assign a suitable repetitive manufacturing profile in the material master record to be able to backflush a material using either the mandatory or the optional reporting point backflush function.
2)You must set the optional or the mandatory reporting point backflush in the repetitive manufacturing profile.
3)This type of backflushing corresponds to the milestone confirmation in make-to-order production. Therefore, in the routing, you must select a control key which has indicator 1 (= milestone confirmation) in the confirmation field.
4)You must enter the routing in the production version of the material. The system first looks for the routing entered in the detailed planning section. If no entry exists here, the system then uses the routing from the rate-based planning section.
5)You must carry out a version-specific or a standard cost estimate.
6.You are recommended to use the version-specific cost estimate which can be carried out in shorter intervals than the standard cost estimate.
Reporting point is a concept for REM. This is to be set up just like Milestone operation.
Select the Control key which is relevent for Milestone confirmation like PP01
or select a control key which is having the confirmtion selected as *1 - Milestone confirmation
You need to select REM profile 003 or 004 from sttd REM profiles to have Reporting Point and in OP67 (Control key for Operations) you need to set confirmation to 1 - milestone confirmation .
Please try and come back.

Repetitive manufacturing:backflush

Dear experts,
At my client place , repetitive manufacturing scenario is there.
While doing back flush, I am facing an error "Argument 1061 not contained in table T437D"
"Message no. RM001"
Please guide me where I am going wrong in customisation.
Regards,
Sameer

Dear Sameer,
check for this 2 settings,
SPRO-Production-Repetitive Manufacturing-Planning-Define scheduling parameters for Planned orders (OPU5),Check
*whether for order type * or for order type PE - Run Schedule*Quantity for Plant RA01 whether you have maintained the
relevant required parameters.
Then also in SPRO-Production-Repetitive Manufacturing-Planning - Planning Table-Maintain distribution for Planning
table whether you maintained the setting for the plantRA01.
Once after doing this setting,it gets updated in table T437D.

Repetitive Manufacturing - Backflushing

Hi Gurus,
I am new to Repetitive manufacturing Scenario, I have created a planned order and then done the required steps of Backflushing and GR and completed that.
After which I found that the components are not correctly consumed during backflushing. One of the component was consumed in less. Now I want to charge this remaining qty to that order.
But when I try to do this using the same tcodes like MB1A, MIGO with 261 movement against that order, Error message "Internal Order..................."
is displayed,
Please let me know on how this problem can be solved, this may look silly, but being new to this scenario Can any one please help me.

Hi,
If you want to correct then you have only option to reverse the backflush from MF41 and perform the fresh confirmation (backflush) like same in production order confirmation cancellation and then re-confirmation.
While reversing syetem updates the stock for components and for finished part its create planned order for reverse quantity (depends on rem profile settings).
If any question then please inform.

Repetitive manufacturing:subcontracting

Dear experts
              In repetitive manufacturing scenario, I have subcontracted my 4 of operations.
           Now the requirement is I want to create Automatic PR for those operations.
          So please guide me what are the necessary settings to be done.
Regards,
Sameer

Dear Sameer,
I doubt whether operation sub-contratcing is possible in REM scenario,i have not tried this,but in my understanding if you are
using a reporting point backflush this may be achieved.
In one of my project in REM scenario we used direct sub-contracting where this is possible.
Also refer this thread to explore more,
Re: Subcontracting in REM
Correct me if I'm wrong.

Repetitive Manufacturing Profiles

Hi Experts,
i have a question about REM profile:
in the repetitive manufacturing profile (REM profile) that we want to post activities,
what was the difference beetwen standard cost estimate for material and preliminary cost estimate for the product cost collector in sales order related production,
what is the result of each selection in sales order related production and which setting is recommended for this case,
I would be highly appriciated if you can respond in detail.
Your help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Azam

Dear Azam,
1. If in the REM profile if the radio button is selected against standard cost estimate,then while doing
backflushing the system picks up the standard cost estimate of the material from the material master and
confirmations are made & variances are calculated.That's CK40N is to be carried out periodically.
If there's no standard cost estimate for a material means then you cant do the confirmation in MFBF.
2. If in the REM profile if the radio button is selected against preliminary cost estimate means while creating
the product cost collector for a material and saving means then based on this cost itself confirmations can
be made in MFBF,no need to carryout the costing run in CK40N.You can see any standard cost of the
material in the material master in costing 2 view.
3. In the case of Make to Order scenario as per to my knowledge based on preliminary cost estimate it self
we can do the confirmation.
4. Please check these links [Standard Price with Valuated Sales Order Stocks |http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/en/90/ba63e7446711d189420000e829fbbd/frameset.htm]

Repetitive manufacturing - CM01 Capacity Requirement

Hi All,
I configured repetitive manufacturing process with lead time scheduling.
Conf. at OPU5 is set as below
Rate.plng horzn - 999
SelID:rate plng - 02
Scheduling u2013 X (selected)
Generate Capacity reqs. u2013 X (selected)
Scheduling level - Via Rate based scheduling
Adjust dates u2013 Do not adjust basic dates, dep reqmt to operation dates
For capacity scheduling u2013 Always basic dates, dep. Reqmt to operation dates
I run MRP (MD02) with option - Lead Time Scheduling and Capacity Planning
I could see required capacity is calculated at tab u201CProduction Ratesu201D & also in menu Planned order >> Goto >>Capacity leveling.
we are unable to view Capacity requirement in CM01 transaction & in planning table MF50.

Hi,
Select the correct profile in CM01. Menu->Planning->Profiles

Repetitive Manufacturing and Planning Strategy 52

Can I run Repetitive Manufacturing on a material with the planning strategy of 52 (Plnng w/o final assem. w/o make-to.stock) ?
When i try to perform backflush on the planned orders, i am faced with the following error :
<b>Plnd ord. <i>XXXXX</i> is a plnd order for planning w/o final assembly
Message no. RM131</b>
Please advise.
Thanks

for planning strategy you can execute production(ie backflush in REM) only after u receive a sales order. please ensure that a sales order is in place.

Repetitive Manufacturing planned order long text

In our scenario, we will use the repetitive manufacturing process with planned order. However, the users would like to attach the long text for each planned order.
Is there any use exit or BADI to support this?
Regards,

Hi ,
i think there is no user exit or BADI which can work in your case.
When we required similar functioanolity we landd up in desigining entirely new Z tocde which would accept the long text ofr the plan orders and save it.
we created coplue of ztables to store the plaf link.

PRT Rounting prob for counter updation for Repetitive manufacturing

Hi Experts,
Is it possible to do update measuring counter thr production specially in case of Repetitive manufacturing scenario .If we try the same counter thr discrete then it will update the counter .
Pl guide ,is there any customization for these case fr PP or PM side.
Also another prob is to make factory calendar for all seven days as working days bcoz now all preventive order laps the holiday for order creation . Temporary we solve this prob by setting call horizon parameter . So is there any way to make factory calendar so all order come as earlier predefined date. Now all holiday or weekly off order come on next day.
Thx in advance .
With regards.
AVI DDS.

Thx to all
