Master Recipe Creation and assignment of operation no. to component material of the master recipe -

[akshaydua]

SAP master recipe is used to define the operations and phases which need to be carried out during a manufacturing process. Operations and phases are step by step activities which are carried out during SAP manufacturing process.

SAP has three main manufacturing methods, which are discrete manufacturing, process manufacturing and repetitive manufacturing. Master recipe is used in process manufacturing method.

Before creating SAP master recipe, it is important to create the production version. Production version will have the bill of material(BOM) of the material which is going to be manufactured. Next, we can create the master recipe and enter the production version. Production version is a mandatory input for master recipe creation. After adding the production version to the master recipe, we can go to the production version and view the master recipe information. This system will automatically add the master recipe group number and the group counter.

SAP Master Recipe Creation

SAP master recipe can be created by calling the transaction code C201. We can also follow the below menu path to execute the transaction:

SAP Menu -> Logistics -> Production-process -> Master data -> Master recipes -> Recipe and material list -> Create

In the selection screen, we can enter the material, plant, and the production version.  

Assignment of component material to the Header material -

It will do the Assignment of component material to the Header material (below screenshot from T-Code C202) –

Steps to assign operation number to the component material of the master recipe -

Go to T-Code C202 (Change Master Recipe)

Enter the combination of Material, Plant, production version and also the change number as shown below –

Press Enter And select the Material component assignment -

Click on Create Assignment and a pop up will open as shown below –

Enter the operation number – System will automatically assign that operation number to the material component assignment as shown below –

When we perform the above steps, a new entry gets created in the PLMZ Table. This is linking table of operation number with Material component BOM Items. (Means joining 2 tables PLPO and STPO).

 

Assigning operation number to the phantom material –

Phantom materials are identified by “Special procurement” key in material master (MRP 2 View). The special procurement key “50” represents a phantom item.

Will have to determine the path of the exploded BOM tree and pass it to the PLMZ –

Determine the KANTE (Path in the exploded BOM tree) and pass it to the PLMZ structure and save it. And the remaining steps are same as we did while assigning the operation number to the non-Phantom material.

This way it will automatically assign the operation number to the phantom materials –
