hi,
strategy 50 is planning with out final assembly.
strategy 70 is planning at assembly level.
Strategy 70:
1) In this planning strategy, the planned independent requirements for an assembly are planned separately. They are created at assembly level and they trigger the production of the assembly.
2) When a sales order is received for the finished product, the BOM is exploded for the finished product. Dependent requirements or reservations are also created for the assembly as a result of planned orders or production orders for the finished product. These consume the planned independent requirements of the assembly.
3) In the strategy group of the material master record, you must enter strategy 70 and the mixed MRP indicator must be set for assembly planning.
strategy 50:
1) As make-to-order production, planning without final assembly (strategy 50) enables you to manufacture products specifically for a customer.
2) Planning which is independent of the sales order is organized using planned independent requirements. These planned independent requirements are created for the finished product. In the MRP run, the system first creates planned orders for the finished product to cover these requirements.
3)These planned orders cannot be converted into production orders (order type VP). When sales orders are entered and MRP is next run, the system creates planned orders to offset the sales orders; these planned orders can be converted to production orders or purchase requisitions.
4)Also in the MRP run, the planned orders of type VP are adjusted to offset the remaining, unconsumed planned independent requirments.
pls let me know any clarifications. pls reward the points.
regards,
Mohan R
