Use

You control which order type you want to use for the order combination by choosing a selection profile.

With production orders, you also control:

Whether the combination will be performed for each operation or for each order

Whether the master data is read with the data of the reference order or whether the reference order is copied

Features

You define the selection profile in Customizing of Shop Floor Control at Master Data → Administer Selection Profile for the Combination or in Customizing of Production Planning for Process Industries at Process Order → Master Data → Order → Administer Selection Profile for the Combination. If no selection profile is selected or if the order type in the selection profile is not allowed for the order category, the order type is taken from the reference order. The chosen order type must be assigned a settlement profile that is valid for the order combination ( See also: Order Combination and Controlling ). The order type in the selection profile also organizes the selection according to orders.

With the settings in the selection profile, you determine whether the radio buttons Combine all operations and With reference order are shown and whether they can be changed manually.
