Hi All,
We have the following scenario for discontinued and follow up material:
1) In the Material Master of a Discontinued Material A (MRP 4 View), we have maintained the Discontinued Indicator as 1, Effective Out Date and a Follow Up Material B
2) Discontinuation Data is not maintained in BOM - The Discontinued Material is maintained in the BOM with no discontinuation data maintained. The follow up material is also not maintained in BOM.
3) There is sufficient stock available for the Discontinued material, so the requirements are covered even after effective out date.
But after a certain period, the discontinuation material is not available in stock. For those planned orders which are created after this (non availability of stock of discontinued material), the follow up material is reflected in the Planned Order.
How does this work?. We have not maintained any data for Discontinuation in BOM and the follow up material is also not available in the BOM.
Awating your expert feedback on the same.
Regards,
R Vijayakumar
