MTS production for 2 plants

[former_member807425]

I produce same material for my own plant say 1001 and for another plant say 1002. This has MTs strategy. When MRP runs planned orders are created and auto job converts planned order to production order. However in shopfoor I can’t identify for which plant I have produced this based on shopfloor print out . Even if I create 2 production order types with 2 number ranges , how will I set it at material master level that some time it is for plant x and some time it is for plant Y ? Can anyone help how we can segregate a material demand for 2 plants when material is same and one plant is producing on behalf of other ?

Hello

I would suggest you to create separated MRP Areas to represent each plant. You can create the forecast at MRP Area level and the production order will carry the MRP Area, which can be used as an identication.

Hi Harsh,

It looks, there is some understanding issue of the Special Procurement Types, which are the part of standard SAP Solution. Could you please look into the Special Procurement Option : 40 >> Stock Transfer from the Other Plant
Given below the screen shot, to have as a quick Example
Hope this Helps. Thanks & Regards : Raja

thanks Raja

I am aware about special procurement. But they don’t have this setup and plant is asking without having this set up , can I give forecast demand for my plant 1000 as qty 5000 and other plant 2000 as qty 3000 production in plant 1000( my plant) only. Then when MRP runs plant 1000 should create a prodn order of PP1 and for plant 2000 production order PP2 … this way they want segregation. Is this possible in system ? Even if I set up special procurement key will it create pp2 as order type for other plant ?
