You can set up milestone and progress confirmations so that the quantities (yield and scrap) of automatically generated confirmations are calculated without taking into account the planned scrap percentage rate of each operation. The automatic confirmations are then posted with the same total quantity as the milestone or progress confirmation. Scrap is posted as yield in the automatically generated confirmations.
If you do not select this procedure, the planned scrap percentage rate of each operation is taken into account when calculating the confirmed quantity. In the generated confirmations, the proportional scrap is displayed separately.
Procedure prior to 4.6C
Prior to Release 4.6C, there was only a procedure for automatically generated confirmations. Scrap was posted as yield in the automatically generated confirmations. The confirmed total quantity was calculated proportionally from the planned operation quantities (yield and scrap).
You make this setting in the confirmation
parameters (tab page Generally valid settings, "Generated
confirmations w/o quantity adjustment" indicator).
For more information and an example, refer to the documentation for the Generated confirmations w/o quantity adjustment indicator.
