Purpose

To carry out repetitive manufacturing, you must enter certain master data in the system.

Features

The following master data is available:

  • The repetitive manufacturing profile is defined in Customizing for Repetitive Manufacturing and entered in the material master record. You must also allow the material for repetitive manufacturing (entry in the material master record).

  • You create the production version in the material master record.

  • If you want to carry out the planning using a planning ID , you must define one and enter it in the material master record.

  • If you want to use a production line for planning purposes, you must create one and enter it in the production version.

  • If you use repetitive manufacturing in conjunction with the component PP Line Design , you can represent the production line as a line hierarchy . This makes sense if you have complex production lines for which you want to carry out takt-based scheduling.

  • If you want to plan capacities, you must create a routing ( rate routing ) and likewise enter it in the production version.

  • You create a product cost collector so that you can record the costs of production.
