Long Term Planning BOM Selection
We do yearly budget with long term planning and we want to use it
to transfer PP activity.
In order to do it we do the defination in as following:
1) define the routing selection for long term planning in planned
order defination.
2) we define a BOM use costing usage.
After we run MRP in the long term planning screen.
Later we check the planned order and we find the routing selection
is right but the bom selection is not right. It is didnot use the cost
bom we defined.
Is it because the cost routing didnot related with production in
the defination of bom usage defination?
The causes may be due to many factors...
Check:
1. Planning scenario for correct BOM application
2. Check spro for Alternative Determination(under BOM) and Selection
ID
3. Order of priority of BOM usage
Define production version for a material with correct routing and BOM
mentioned in it.
Attach this prod version to material in MRP3 view.
Also change the BOM selection in MRP3 view to 2 i.e. Selection by production
version only.
Now if there are going to be multiple versions for the same material
and in LTP you want that to be getting selected automatically, then you
can use quota arrangement.
Thans for your answer. Yes we can use the solution to solve our problem.
But we still have some problem:
1.We use the long term planning for budget use. You know when you
do budget you could not finish in a short period and it means it should
not effect the actual business. If you change quto when you want to swtich
it takes time to do it.
2. You the routing if you use another group counter and when you
get the cost run result you could not make analysis base on your solution.
We encountered teh same problem, so we took a copy of the actual production
system towards a budget box; changed all BOM's and routing's for budgetting
reasons, run LTP on this box; if ok copy the new BOM's and routings back
to productive system.
