External operation- process flow

[#1]

hi PP gurus

I am in the process of setting up a new process for jobs that are externally processed.

Its a SME, and the Finished product has only one child item, ( raw material)

Some of the operations are given out side for processing.

how do we setup a process for it. I have give a example below to relate to our BP.

Finished prduct: X; raw material: Y

BOM for X will have only Y.

4 operations (4 WC's) - CLEN1 , DRL001, BRK001, and FNL001.

Routing created for X and component Y assigned to CLEN1

DRL001 is outsoursed as a external operation (control key PP02).

Doubts:

1.after the production order rel. how will the issue to vendor happens for operation DRL001.( there is no inter-mdiate part no avialble for the output from CLEN1)

2. if Purchase order/ SA to be created- what are the values to be populated for this type of process ( job order)

request your help.

any clarification, required, i will reply back to your post.

Hi,

When you create Production order. PRs will come for the operation which you can convert for PO. There is no requirement of BOM for externally processed opeartions.

But mandatory thing you should have the part number for which sub-contracting is done. Whithout part number you cannot do the GR.

Hi,

Use only one component as u have in BOM, only required is u assign it to external processing operation so that while creation of PO for external opearion u can see the component with mvt type 541.

There is no need to create intermediate materials.

Confirm operation wise.During GR of external operation component will get consumed against that order.

Check it & revert.

Logically there should be some product for sub-contracting.

Following is the steps for externally processed operation

1. create purchasing info rec

2. In the routing for the externally processed operation enter the control key as

pp02

3. In the routing header enter the subcontractor info rec no and save

4.MD61/MD02/MD04

5.Confirm the op10 thru co11n

6.Note the PR No from production order Opeartion overview tab page external

processing

7.Thru ME58 Convert purchase requisition to purchase order

8. Thru ME2O Send the material to subcontractor

9.Thru Migo receive the material from subcontractor (check theMovement type

I think it is 541)

10 . confirm the externally processed operation

11. MB31

Saravana,

In your case since the sub-con operation is not the first operation of the order material will not be issued to the vendor - there will not be any 541 mvt. Only the external operation will be performed.

If the first operation had been sub-con then you need to issue the material to the vendor. 541 will happen in this case. For this you need to tick the sub-con check box in the ext processing tab page of the order so that the BoM component will be exploded.

If no material is issued then it is a normal external processing. The check box should not be ticked.

GR with material will happen if the sub-con operation is the last operation of the order. Else GR will happen w/o material.

Hi,

For external operation create inforecord without material & assign it to external processing operation. So after creation of order for external opearion PR will be generated.u have to assign tha raw material to external opeartion only.

For first opearation confirm first wihout consuming any component.Then see PR is generated for opearation for. PR is for only operation.

Covert PR to PO where u can see the assigned component with the movement type 541.

After completion take material by MIGO.by mvt type 543.

The confirm another operations.

Hi,

You can solve your problrm as follows,

Create BOM for semi finish material in SFG material enter special procurement 30 for subcontracting. Send raw mateial & get SFG from subcontractor.

Create intermediate materials for that to get stock.
