Planned Orders for Direct Production (SAP Library - Material Requirements Planning (PP-MRP))

Planned Orders for Direct Production

Use

The system creates planned orders for direct production during planning for components in the collective order that are produced directly.

Features

Every planned order for direct production contains the number of the superior planned order as well as the number of the leading planned order (tab index Assignment, screen area Direct production).

The requirement to be produced directly comes from the superior planned order.
The leading planned order is the planned order at the head of the collective order.

The entry for the superior and leading planned order is purely informative. If you double-click on the number, the display for the respective planned order appears.

After conversion into production orders, the respective superior and leading production order is also entered in the direct production orders.

You can change planned orders for direct production manually, but such changes are not advised, as they lead to inconsistencies and are overwritten by the next planning run. Only change fields that are not critical, for example, where you add or delete a component, and then convert the planned order immediately.
