 Goods Receipt Confirmation in Case of Production in Other Plant Locate this document in the navigation structure

Use

This function enables you to post the goods receipt for an assembly whose planning plant differs from its production plant.

At the time of confirmation, the system posts the goods receipt of the assembly in the planning plant and backflushes the components in the production plant.

Integration

Production in another plant is integrated in Repetitive Manufacturing. The planning table shows a separate line, in which you can process or create planned orders, for each plant that differs from the production plant, for example.

Prerequisites

  • Planning plant

    You have maintained a special procurement key for production in another plant in the material master record of the assembly for the planning plant .

    See Cross-Plant Planning

  • Production plant

    You have created a production version for the production plant in the material master for the assembly.

  • Material requirements planning (MRP)

    You have generated planned orders through an MRP run in the planning plant or created them manually in the planning table.

Features

When you carry out the confirmation process for an assembly in the planning plant, the system automatically determines the production plant either from the special procurement key in the material master record or from the corresponding planned order. The system then posts goods receipt of the assembly in the planning plant and backflushes the components in the production plant. The planned orders are reduced and, if necessary, the production costs updated in the product cost collector.

Activities

On the Repetitive Manufacturing Confirmation screen, enter either the planning plant or the planned order. The remaining activities are carried out in accordance with the procedures for the other goods receipt postings.
