Dear Team,
The implementation of SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud is to be done, so as much SAP standard functions as possible will be adopted: below is a structured approach to map the client's business requirements to the SAP standard functionalities.
Vertical: Foundry stainless steel production process
Requirement: Mould Date code availability-based Melting Production Order generation is possible Standard SAP S4 HANA Public Cloud?
Example: 4 different types of mould stocks are available, based on that need to plan same grade liquid metal for production?
Product Structure Mapping in SAP S/4HANA
- Make-to-order (MTO) is applied to all products except those in the Melting Stage.
- MTO-type finished goods, pouring SFG, Mould, Core.
- Configured with strategy 20 (Make to Order Production)
The foundry's product structure can be represented using Multi-Level BOM and Routing:
Product Level | SAP Object | Manufacturing Strategy |
Finished Goods (FG) – Stainless Steel | Final Product BOM | Make-to-Order (MTO) |
Semi-Finished Goods (SFG) – Pouring SFG (Core + Mould + Melting) | Sub-assembly BOM | Make-to-Order (MTO) |
Melting – Raw Materials + Consumables | Component in BOM | Make-to-Stock (MTS) |
Mould – Raw Materials + Consumables | Component in BOM | Make-to-Order (MTO) |
Core – Core Sand | Component in BOM | Make-to-Order (MTO) |
PRT – Pattern | Production Resource/Tool (PRT) | Assigned in Routing |
