Use

For various types of production, it is necessary to check the sequence of the components to be used for an operation or phase. If the components were picked as Structure linkhandling units (HUs), material identification takes place at HU level.

Depending on whether the sequence check for the process order or operation/phase was created in the Structure linkmaster recipe, you can

Note

Since the sequence check implies a completeness check has already been carried out, it is a good idea to carry out a sequence check for a whole order if it is the only form of identification.

 

The sequence check refers to the sequence of the materials in the material list of the process order. Here the materials are assigned to an operation or a phase.

 

Goods issue posting

Since identification is carried out directly before the actual use of the material, the material consumption can also be posted as a goods issue at this time. In this case, the system carries out the GI posting automatically at the end of the sequence check if no separate goods issue posting is maintained in the master recipe.

The goods issue posting of the components is carried out at HU level. The quantity of all materials with all batches that are filled in HUs is posted as a goods issue.

A partial good issue posting of an HU is not possible. Only the complete HU can be posted as goods issue. In the case of an error, the complete HU is refused.

An independent goods issue document is created for each HU.

  1. The materials required for production were picked.
  2. The HUs that are to be identified have not yet been posted as a goods issue.

This can be the case, for example, if a completeness check with an automatic goods issue posted took place before the sequence check.

Procedure

  1. In the PI sheet, call up the Sequence check.

    2. The Material Identification: Sequence screen appears.

  2. Enter the HUs to which the required material was assigned in the correct sequence.

    3. a. This sequence refers to the material list of the process order.

    If your terminal has a barcode scanner connected to it, you can enter it in this way. The barcode scanner dialog does not take place in the R/3 System.

    b. The system uses a symbol to inform you whether the identification number you entered is correct.

  3. Ending the sequence check:

    4. - If all picked HUs were entered in the correct sequence, you can exit the sequence check by choosing Save.

    The sequence check is confirmed as successful in the PI sheet.

    - If the sequence check cannot be completed successfully, an error message appears as well as a corresponding note in the PI sheet.

  4. Automatic GI posting, if maintained in the master recipe:

The system automatically posts the consumption of the components for the process order or operation/phase as a goods issue. Messages are sent to process message destination PI51. You can use the message monitor to check whether the messages have been processed correctly.
  1. The data from the completeness check and the goods issue posting are transferred to the batch record. You can use the message monitor to check whether the messages have been processed correctly.

For more information on sending messages, see:

Separate Goods Issue Posting.
