Hello All,
Business want to introduce new Variant materials X,Y,Z with some changes to old variant materials A. Old variant material A has 5 days lead time MRP view 3 but as customer request grows this lead time should be reduced with multiple combination of variant. So business has decided to break this material A in multiple variant materials i.e. X,Y,Z.
Now breaking with new variant materials VC guy wants to use old material A variant model like Profile, BOM, routing, variant table, procedure and assign it new materials X,Y,Z . He will make some changes to this variant model in variant table and procedure to fetch correct data. He is afraid that if he make some changes to variant table or in procedure then it will have impact on old open orders.
I have suggested him to use ECM so will have new validity with his new changes. I want to understand this is right approach or do we have any other alternate solution? Using ECM I believe there would be no impact on old open orders
Thanks for your immediate response.
