 Make-to-Order Production: Cost Management Using the Sales Order

For make-to-order production with cost management using a sales order, all costs and revenues involved for an order item are assigned collectively to the item. The costs are allocated to profitability analysis using a particular settlement rule which the system automatically proposes. You can change the proposal manually.

Prerequisites

Make-to-order production is controlled by the requirements type. The requirements type is determined on the basis of the MRP group and the strategy group in the material master record.

Up to Release 3.0, the requirements type is determined on the basis of the item category. For this reason, special item categories are used up to Release 3.0 for controlling make-to-order production. To make a material to order with cost management using a sales order, you must maintain the following fields in the material master:

In addition, a plant must be assigned for make-to-order items in the sales order.
