 Handling Components in a Combined Order

Use

After the orders and operations have been combined, the system determines the components to be used in the combined order.

Features

The exploded bill of material (BOM) of the combined order is discarded. Instead, the components of the original orders are copied to the combined order. Provided the components meet certain requirements, the component quantities are cumulated. The quantities are cumulated if:

  • The components are stock items

  • The components are not variable-size items

  • The item categories are the same

  • The components do not contain descriptive texts

  • The short texts are the same

  • The batches are the same

  • The components are not special stock items

  • The components are not phantom items or assigned to phantom items

  • The components are not batch split components

  • The components have the same scrap

Note Note

Components with different scrap are not combined, but are taken over individually.

End of the note.

In the combined order, the fixed quantity indicator is set automatically for the components. You can use the customer exit MILLOC01 (function module: EXIT_SAPLMILL_OC_005 ) to adapt the component list to suit your own needs.
