 Prerequisites

Certain prerequisites must be met before you can perform an order split.

System Status

An order split is allowed with the following system status:

  • Header status : Partially released, released, partially confirmed

  • Operation status of the split operation and all successors: Created, released, partially confirmed

The order split is not allowed with the following status:

  • Header status : Created, delivered, finally confirmed, locked, technically complete, closed, deletion indicator set

  • Operation status of the split operation and all successors: Finally confirmed, dispatched, partially dispatched, capacity split, capacity requirement assigned, capacity requirement partially allocated

  • Operation status of the split operation : Deleted

Open Confirmations

Before an order split can be performed, you must first post all requested confirmations for the parent order (see Displaying Requested Confirmations ). The posting of requested confirmations is carried out in general by scheduling the program CORUPROC1 as a background job.

Order Settlement

To ensure that settlement is performed without any additional variances, the parent and child orders must be a ssigned to the same Product Cost Collector .

After an order split, the costs per piece can no longer be calculated for each order, since operations and goods movements are usually not distributed equally between parent and child. As a result, settlement by order is not supported. Settlement is performed through a product cost collector.

Make the following settings in the order type-dependent parameters (Customizing for Shop Floor Control by choosing Start of the navigation path Master data Next navigation step Orders Next navigation step Define Order Type-Dependent Parameters End of the navigation path ):

  • With the Cost collector indicator, you decide whether you want to collect the costs in a product cost collector.

  • The Distribution rule must support periodic settlement.
