Using Production Order for Inhouse Repair

[former_member626171]

Hello Friends,

I am using SAP PP module for creating Work Order for repair. Basically I am repairing material that was issued to Factory and needs repair. This material is no longer in system inventory as in past it was issued to factory. Now the question is when I am using Production Order, system is expecting receipt of repair material. I don't want to receive the material in inventory whereas I would like to consume/issue the components that is required to repair and settle the cost to repair department cost center. Let me know the best way to design this process.

Thanks Sasi, Well it can be one of the option but I see following issues

1. I need to identified the material that needs repair, this option don't have way for me to input repair material number - Please note we have full blown repair as department that repairs robots, equipment's that were manufacture as well as brought from outside.

2. I need to pick up "repair BOM" automatically.

3. I need to settle to cost center for repair department (I can create settlement rule through enhancement spot to pull right cost center instead of material as defaut).

I am thinking that I can complete the Work Order in TECO instead of receiving the repair material that will fix my issue. Let me know your thoughts.

Hi Sachin,

Based on the description, my suggestion would be to use the method related to production order without material. I would suggest you to go through the blog
