Material Segmentation in Manufacturing Processes

With this business function, the master data for production and planning control - the production bill of materials (PBOM) and routing (task list) has been enhanced to handle materials with segmentation. You can specify for each stock segment value of the header material, which component to be included or excluded in the BOM during its explosion in any BOM usage (such as planned order or production order). In the routing, you can specify which group (counter) of task list is applicable for each segment value of the header material. You can define segment-specific settings for every group of task list. You can specify the requirement segment for the header material in the Planned Order and Production Order documents. Reports have been enhanced to display the segmentation value.

Effects on Existing Data

If you activate this business function, the following new parameters are available in the relevant transactions:

Stock Segment (SGT_SCAT): You use this parameter to assign a segmentation value to a stockable item.
Ignore Segmentation (SGT_IGNORE): You use this parameter to define whether the system should ignore the segmentation value maintained for the BOM component during BOM explosion.
Segmentation Maintained for BOM Components (SGT_CMKZ): You use this parameter to indicate that the segmentation information is already maintained for the BOM component.
Requirement Segment (SGT_RCAT): You use this parameter to indicate additional information about the type of requirement.

The following table lists the transactions and the relevant program/screen in which the new parameters are added.
