Can you have multiple Rates within one Work Center with multiple operations

We have a work center called Pipeshop. Within the Pipeshop we have multiple operations such as Welding, Threading, Cutting, Grooving etc. Each of these operations have a different cost assoicated with them. How can you have different cost for these operations?
Thank you,
Loretta

Hi,
For this case you need to do following activities.
1 Create individual activity accoding to requirement, that will be used for costing.
2 Activity planning w r t work center. In this cost per unit is declaring.
3. Create Routing and modify the default activity type, w r t required activity type, suitable to operations.
Now Order is referring the activity type, refered in Routing rather than, work center.

Quality inpsection on Work center (with/without Material Ref.)

Dear All,
I have scenario, where I have to do the in process inspection on machine (work center) to measure various process parameters that has a direct link with product quality. it is basicallly with out material reference.
I tried using in process inspection for production order but there are several constraints due to which It will not work for certain cases. if we record the readings on each interval against machine/workcenter then every thing will be fine.
how can we do it in SAP.
thanks
MD

Yes its a variant product (Like aluminium sheets rolls for different gauge and widths). which means alot of different product variants produce on same machine with same machine parameters.
so for inspection, product has secondary importance, we want to study the machine parameters to monitor which should remain same over the time and product.
Further at the end, the report we want to see is based on machine not product.
thx

Work center with two cost centers

Hello,
I have one work center. I can produce two different products on it. For one product the costs should go to cost center 1. For the othe product the costs should go to cost center 2.
How can I realize this scenario?
Kind regards.

Dear,
IF you have to take care of capacity planning and scheduling, then you need to use only one WC and having two WC will not serve the pirpose.
Generaly you cannot assign WC to 2 different cost center unless the period is different.
Then the only solution is let the cost get posted to 1 common cost centre. Then at the month end distribute the cost to 2 different cost centers depending on then qty produced.
This is the one laternative we are following.

Table with all versions of capacities (work center)

Hi,
I've created a work center with capacity. This capacity has 2 versions (01 normal capacity" the activ version" and 02 minimum capacity).
I'm surching a table where I can display the work center A with capacity A1 with the versions 01 and 02. (not only with the activ capacity 01 I need to display all the versions from this capacity)
Thanks
Dede

Dede,
You will have to use a combination of tables, perhaps a SQVI to join tables
CRHD - Work Center Header (link work center to capacity ID)
KAZY - Capacity version
KAPA - shifts and intervals
In KAPA the times are displayed in seconds
Hope that helps,

Associate materials with work center

Hello,
For our chemicals production plant, vessels in which HALB products are produced are defined as work centers in SAP. Our business has a requirement that certain vessels can only be used to produce certain materials. Is there a way to capture this requirement in SAP, i.e. associate a work center with specified materials? Help is appreciated.
Regards

Dear Khan,
work centers are not specific to any material production, u can restrict work center usage for the perticular task list by maintaing the field in work center basic data screen task list usauge.

Work Center

Hello Guru,
I have some question about the work center when pick up by the creation of production order. When we create production order manually via CO01, SAP pick workcenter BSBA111 for this order. And when we convert a planned order to a production order SAP pick work center CAWORK01. same finished product is been consider with this material number 1111002 in plant 0012. why in different way of creating production order, but the system is been picking two different work center with different formula? please explain deeply for my concern.
Thanks

In this case what is happening is that while creating manual Production order you are manually selecting the production version . therefore the routing assigned to that particular production version gets copied & subsequently the work centre assigned to th routing gets copied along with that.
Since you have used selection methood as 3 (selection only by production version) the system searches for the valid production version starting from the 1st production version in your list of production versions & stops as soon as it finds the valid one & selects it.(I.e. the 1st version which is valid for the date of exposion & within the lot size defined)
Now in this case the one which you selected & the one which the system finds during MRP can differ.
Thats why your work centres differ , because the production versions differ.
Therefore If you want the selection to be same in Manual PO & PO by MRP , in OPL8, for your plant & order type , select indicator 0 for Production version i.e. automatic selection of production version.

Dyanmic work center selection in production order based on material

Hi ALL,
We’ve a business requirement to support the following functionality.
There are four similar type of milling machines say MILL1 MILL2, MILL3, MILL4, we create a single work center called MILLMC by specifying total capacity of four milling machines in the capacity header screen of work center with 4 individual capacities. And we mention work center MILLMC in the operation of routings for respective materials.
However, during production order creation, there needs to be provision for detailed planning of work centers as per the following requirements
In production order, some operations can be performed on any one of the machines MILL1 MILL2, MILL3, MILL4, so provision needs to be there to enter exact machine on which it is performed in the production order operation after the details are copied from respective routing during production order creation.
In production order, some operations can be performed on only MILL3, so system should select only MILL3 in the respective operation of the production order
In production order, some operations can be performed on either MILL1 or MILL2 or MILL4 and not on MILL3, so system should not select MILL3 in the respective operation of the production order.
Please provide your valuable feedback to support the above requirements.
Regards,
Satya.

Hi Satyanarayan,
Please do refer to the below document. I think the same concept can be used for work centers as it is used for resources in PI industry.

IW41: automatic update of activity type when changing the work center?

Hello colleagues,
when doing a time confirmation with IW41, we have following problem:
In the PM order the operations are assigned to a neutral executing work center, as it not known which individual technician is completing the operation later on.
Now when the individual technician is entering the time confirmation with IW41, system is proposing the work center indicated in the operation from the PM order, then technician is overwriting the work center proposal with his own individual work center ID (and pressing Enter), but the activity type is not getting updated automatically. So the technician must jump to field "activity type" and choose the correct activity type.
Is there any solution (hopefully with user exits!) to have the field "activity type" automatically updated with the one indicated in the work center, which was entered manually?
Thanks for your ideas!
Regards,
Patrick

Hi Maheswaran,
yes, as usual all PM work centers have only 1 activity type assigned in the costing tab.
We also checked the settings of the activity type (KL03), but we just found one difference: the price indicator was set on 3 "Determined manually" - we've changed to 1 "Plan price, automatically based on activity" (..same setting as for the act. type of the work center with working update of act.type).
We tested already all possible constellations and scenarios, but we have not found any good reason for the behaviour.
Thanks for your efforts so far!

hi
first kindly check whtether you have defined value categories, grouped the calue value categories then specified the defualt values categories for order,
then plan for activity type and cost center specified in workcenter in KP26,
also check whether you have specified the formula in the work center costing tab page

Scheduling - Min. queue time & work center / reduction

Hello,
I have a small issue with scheduling of production order.
I have maintained in a work center with Std. queue time = 15 days and Min. queue time = 7 days.
Means less then 7 days it should be not reduced and by enough time it should be calculated with 15 days.
I know the forward scheduling production takes 20 days ( 5 days for first operation plus 15 days Std. queue time for second operation)
By backwards I schedule the finish date which is less then 20 days in the future.
I would expect system would take 7 days (Min. queue time) instead of 15 days with using reduction strategy.
But system throws the message "Start date is in the past: today scheduling" and increases the finish date, with queue time = 15 day, instead to take
7 days!
I dont see system takes Min. queue time in account. Please help to find the error. Thansk!

Hi
Yes .Reduction strategy is only for floats to carry out detail scheduling
Reduction in the float before and after production in the order, expressed as a
percentage of the original float.
For example :
The original float before and after production was 10days in both cases. You
have entered level 2 as the maximum reduction level. The reduction of the float
is in the first level 40 and in the second level 60.
This means that in the first level the float is reduced by 40% of the
original value, that is 6 days. In the second level the float is reduced by 60% of
the original value, that is to 4 days

Work-center timings not reflecting in maintenance order.

Hi,
My requirement is, I want the work-center timings to reflect in my call object (Maintenance Order) generated through a maintenance plan.
My scenario is: I've made a work-center with the following data,
wrkcntr category as 0005; usage 004; control key PM06 with scheduling indicator checked;
in capacities start-finish timings as, 06:00-14:00; operating time of 8hrs, and factory calendar is chosen for maint. people.
The order type say pm08 is selected.
now in the maint. plan we choose this work center in the planning data field.
Task-list is also attached and the data are OK.
in maint. plan scheduling parameter shift factor etc NOT given.
Now when after schedulling I got one order with the
SchedStart: DD.MM.YYYY 06:00
Sched.Fin.: NEXT DATE 06:00
but I need the date to be 06:00 to 14:00 as in the respective work-center.
For for fastly solving the problem my analysis:
I checked the order,goto operation tab,goto dates tab and found that basic finish time of activity is 24:00:00
If this is the reason than how to make it 08:00:00 default for this order type.
Thanks in advance,

Combine Work Center Link Groups in one Work Center

Hello Experts,
our requirement is to combine the Work Center Link Groups of several Work Centers into one Custom Work Center.
For example, the work centers Knowledge Management and Managing Operations. (IC-MGRKM, IC-MGRMA)
They have Work Center Link Groups like IC-MGMA-CR or IC-MGKM-CR. Now we defined an own work center Y-IC-MGRMA and assigned these links groups (and others) to the Work Center.
However, when we open the Work Center we only ever see links of one work center type (for example only the links of Knowledge Management).
Is it even possible to combine the different work centers into one big work center with many links? What would we have to do to achieve this?
Help would be appreciated!

If I am not wrong you are assigning standard work Center Link Groups like IC-MGMA-CR & IC-MGKM-CR to newly created Work center Y-IC-MGRMA .If I try the same, all related links can be made visible. The process you are following is correct.
You may have confused with the nomenclature of your work center ID - Y-IC-MGRM. Please look into the "Group ID" column, if you are assigning standard group links as mentioned above you will find three logical link ID for Knowledge management & two for MGMA too. In short if five logical links are available in second level navigation then things are correct at you end. I tried it and its working fine.
Pease check.
Thanks & regards,
Amit
