SPecial Procurement With Configurable material

[former_member1061582]

Hello Gurus,

Can you suggest a solution for this scenario..

Plant A  is the Ordering plant which gets Cus Orders , Plant B is the manufacturing plant which recevs the requirement and sends FG to A

This is a tycpical STock transfer scenario basesd on Spec Proc key .  The most challenging part here is that in Plant A the FG is actually a configurable material . The SO will be created with the required BOM configuration as per Cus requirement .   But the Manufacturing Plant B does not have Configurable materials concept. so what can be the possible solution  .It will only assemble the parst based on the requirement from Plant A .

(a) Every Config material  in Plant A shud have corresponding no of BOMS (for every variant) in Plant B .  However it is not simple to do so.And also how do we relate the the Material in Plant A to Material in Plant B

So Gurus can you advice how to handle this scenario

Regards,

Hi Hemanth,

I would imagine that the manufacturing/supplying plant should use the Variant Configuration (if you want to use VC at the Ordering plant).

Else, you need to skip the VC process at the Ordering plant as well; and use individual material number for each variant - potential multi-fold increase in masterdata at each plants.
