You can use this function to compare the characteristic values in the classification characteristics of the process batch (actual properties of the material) with the configuration characteristics of the order item (target properties of the material).
This comparison is particularly useful for helping to assign the individual process batches of a production order to the order items.
The target/actual comparison is available in the transactions
Display production order
(CO03) and
Enter time ticket for production order
(CO11N).
In the production order information system, you can display production orders in which the characteristic values of the process batch differ from those of the order item.
To do this, on the selection screen select the indicator
Only orders with PB deviation.
Before you can carry out a target/actual comparison for a production order, you must have created process batches for it.
In the target/actual comparison, you can compare the characteristic values for combinations of process batches and order items of a production order. However, for the comparison, the system only uses highest-level process batches and order items with configured materials.
All possible combinations of process batches and order items are displayed in an overview tree on the left-hand side of the screen. You can sort the overview tree by the following criteria:
Process batch
If you sort the overview tree by process batches, all configured order items are displayed under the process batch.
If you have already assigned a process batch to an order item, only the order items you assigned the process batch to are displayed for comparison.
Order item
If you sort the overview tree by order item, all highest-level process batches are displayed under the item.
The status of a combination is indicated as follows:
All characteristic values of the process batch and order item agree.
Some of the characteristic values of the process batch and order item do not agree:
One or more characteristics do not have a value assigned in either the process batch or the order item.
The characteristic values for one or more characteristics are not the same in the process batch and order item. The deviations are within the defined tolerance.
Some of the characteristic values of the process batch and order item do not agree. The deviations are outside the defined tolerance.
You define tolerances for the target/actual comparison using the business add-in MILL_SOLL_IST_COMP.
If you have not implemented this business add-in in your system, all deviations between process batch and order item are marked with .
If you double click on the status for a combination, the characteristics of the process batch and order item are displayed in an overview on the right-hand side of the screen. Only the characteristics of the process batch class (class type 022 or 023) are displayed.
You use
Display mode
to control what information this overview contains:
All characteristics
All deviating characteristics
Deviating characteristics outside tolerance
In the status column, the deviations between process batch and order item for the individual characteristics are indicated as follows:
The characteristic value of the process batch agrees with the characteristic value of the order item.
The characteristic value of the process deviates from the characteristic value of the order item, but the deviation is within the defined tolerance.
The characteristic value of the process deviates from the characteristic value of the order item, and the deviation is outside the defined tolerance.
In the case of combined orders, a target/actual comparison can only be carried out for the original orders.
In the target/actual comparison, the system only takes account of process batches for which no goods receipts have been posted.
