Hello experts,
Our business wants to follow a subcontracting process but they have the problem that when sending out the SC components to the vendor, they have a minimum subcontracting qty. which they need to send.
E.g.:- If as per SC BoM, the qty required for component 1 is say 1 EA, they still need to transfer 48 EA , which is equivalent to 12 boxes (1 box= 4 EA) to the vendor, as 48 is their minimum subcontracting qty for this component. If the reqd. qty for the component is , say, 50, then they actually need to order 96 EA, which is 24 boxes. Always a multiple of 48 EA/12 boxes, nothing in between, it should be.
I had suggested that they should maintain the component qty as fixed in their SC BoMs , so that irrespective of the header material qty, the component 1 qty is always 48 EA or 12 box (as we maintain in the SC BoM) but business does not wish to do that as they wish to keep their master data clean.
Any suggestions as how the above requirements can be incorporated, using standard SAP functionalities.
Thanks and Regards
