Operation Scrap
Before an operation in which high-value components are built into an assembly, a quality inspection of the assembly may take place. Faulty materials that are covered by assembly scrap are taken out of the process before the next operation. This is why you enter an operation scrap instead of a general assembly scrap for high-value components.
The operation scrap is the quantity of one component to be processed in an operation. This value enables you to plan material requirements and determine excess consumption more precisely.
Calculating scrap
You maintain operation scrap for an individual component.
If this component is contained in an assembly for which assembly scrap is maintained,
only the operation scrap is taken into account.See also:
