Difference b/w CO15 and CO11N

[Former Member]

Hi all,

What is the specific difference between the two and in what scenarios are they used specifically?

Thanks,

Dear,

CO15 is order header level confirmation. where in you will confirm the total order in one stroke. You will not enter operation details such as yield and scrap in detail.

But CO11N is operation level confirmation. Where in you will confirm every operation and the yield and operation are confirmed at every stage.

Suppose say you have 10-15 opeartions in that order,if you confirm via CO15 then all the operations will get automatically confirmed with the planned data maintained in the routing.

Hope this will clear you doubt. Come back if you need more details

Hi Bhrama,

Thanks for the quick reply. As you have mentioned "You do the total confirmation in one stroke" but CO15 also allows you to confirm partially.

I have a client who sometimes uses CO15 and sometimes CO11N. But the system restricts confirmation in CO11n when CO15 has already been done for partial quantity for the order. Why is this?

Also mostly the orders have only one operation, so does it make a difference if you use CO15 or CO11N?

Thanks,

Sachin

Dear,

In CO15 you can do the partail confirmation

Yes if you do the operation level confirmation then system will not allow you to the reconfirmation in CO15 as it is on header level for same order you will get the Message no. RU156.

Best practice is use the CO11N.

Hi,

In Co15 you can't enter ur activity details

but if u go in co11n u can enter ur activity detail

i think ur client require this dats y they are using co11n instead of co15 even there is one operation

Hi,

You can do confirmation by either CO11N or CO15

CO11N---this specific for operation confirmation ex: I have 3 operations, while doing operation 1 my output is 90%-good and 10% is rework so I am going to Confirm 90% and rest I will confirm afetr rework

and in CO15 I will do it Straight away for order header

Main difference is you keep a good track of your product and quality if you do operation wise.

Thanks
