Criteria for the Selection
When carrying out automatic selection using the selection ID the system tries to select a routing according to predefined criteria.
On order creation you specify a material, the quantity of the material to be manufactured and a basic date. When automatically selecting a routing the system uses the following criteria:
The system restricts the routing selection to routings that exist at the explosion date.
If the production order was converted from a planned order in which a production version was specified then the system tries to select a routing using this production version.
Automatic Selection
If an automatic selection is not possible the system functions as follows:
Two priorities are maintained for one selection ID. Routing selection takes place automatically. Two routings match the first priority equally well. One routing matches the second priority exactly:
In this case, no automatic selection is possible. Thus the system lists the two routings with priority 1 AND the routing with priority 2. You must select one of the three routings manually.
Selection Priority
It can happen that several routings fulfill all the selection criteria. In this case you can also define additional selection criteria in Customizing according to which the system can automatically select exactly one routing. Selection priorities can be assigned for the following criteria:
If a reference operation set is included, then the components that belong to it are also transferred to the production order.
Production Version
If it is specified in the material master of the material to be produced that the bill of material is to be selected using a production version and if a routing is also assigned in the production version then this task list is copied to the order.
If there are several production versions, either the system decides automatically which production version is used, or you choose the production version manually. You make the settings for this in the order type-dependent parameters (Production version indicator in Customizing for Shop Floor Control by choosing Master Data ®
