Process Message Category

[#1]

Dear Experts,

I need a clarification How does Process message work in PP PI sheet

See as i know control recipe is created when process order is released

For setting point of control recipe destination and instruction category is assigned in Master Recipe. Control recipe destination has thier addresses and porcess instruction to be generated . Characteristic and thier values are assigned in process instruction category.

I would like to know that where is process message/ Category in the loop and How does it trigger in PPPI sheet

Can you explain me to get away from this doubt.

Regards,

SAP has some standard Process mesaages.

Each message has a destnation, which is nothing but a BAPI.

So when a Process message is created with relevant inputs. the data is sent to the BAPI when it is sent to the destination.which gets executed and achieves the results intended for.

For example PI_Prod is use for doing a GR (101) for a Process order.

When we create a Process message with PI_PROD category all the relevant details like Order no, Material , qty, units and Storage location are neeed.then when you send it. The GR is posted.

.it is used for posting relevant changs from XMII or external systems.

Hi...

In Process message category you define the characteristics which carried the data to different database tables OR that data will trigger some program at the backend...

You create process mesage category through O13C.. You aasign them in process instruction category with the help of characteristics PPPI_MESSAGE_CATEGORY... So when you create control recepies through process order then you enter relevant data in PI sheet... This data then carried away by respective process message categories to their target areas (database table..som program..)

Hope things are clear now...
