eashwar, in opl8-> order type depdent parameters-> enter routing selection as 0( no routign or reference operation sets to be sued). this should not ask you for any routing, not even a default one.

Members:

Thank you for your valuable replies and time

Santosh:

Tried what you have mentioned, but system still picks up a default routing

Kaushik:

Maintained Default values in OPJG for the given order type, but system still picks up

default routing

Mangalraj:

have no issue in creating a production order without a BOM, but I am trying to see

is there a way where I can create a production order without a BOM and routing (not

even default operation )

Any suggestions on how to create a production order for a material without a BOM

and routing (not even default one )

who has asked you this question??

i think someone ask you this question in interview.

this is senseless question till you explain the requirement.

see asking quesiton is very easy dear....this is not a forum to ask any quesiton which is no meaning at all

and i personaly fill if you dont have BOM, routing so it means it wont have any standard cost as well (no planned cost)

why u want produciton oder???

please close this thread if you are not able to give the requirement.

In first instance this has nothing to do with interview question and your hyperthinking (jack*** comments)........

I believe and understand this is a profession forum, and my question may be out of the box but it

does not mean that the question does not make sense.

We are going to cutover phase, where we want to upload legacy producution orders as OPEN Production orders

and the client does not want to capture components consumed and operations passed through as the volume of

production orders is low and in reference to cost associated to these production orders we are posting

them to a seperate cost center

Hi.

Intention of production order is to create stock for the material , then such stock consumed for the the sales invoice,

Rather u use Movement type 561 for initial stock uploading.

Eshwer,

Responding to poor manners with additional poor manners is usually ill advised in the long run. YOUR karmic burden grows.

You might suggest to your client that he will have to create his BOMs and Routings at some point anyway, why not start on day one. Once the BOMs and routings are loaded as master data, the converted production orders can be loaded normally, and will pull in the master data.

If this is still unacceptable to your client, then you might want to think about creating reservations instead of production orders for the converted orders. This would record and maintain the existance of a future receipt, and allow receival with reference to the reservation, but will offer nothing else. Perhapse a 521 movement type, or something else that would be acceptable to the FI/CO members of the team.

Thanks for the inputs and consider your suggestion, not sure at this point of time whether we will be going with intial load with all master data set up. I will do consider the second note mentioned and see where it goes.

Hi,

You can create a production order w/o routing .For the same you need to maintain below settings.

In order type dependenp parameters you need not to maintain any task list types.

And in OPJG transaction you need to maintain default operation for the order types.

Then you can try p.o creation w/o routing.

Hope this can help.

Hi,

Yes you can define a defalt routing at plant level for production order type

Use t code OPJG and define default operation.

the short answer is yes.

Check your question again - I think you'll find you answered it yourself.

You say "I know we can create a production order for a material without a BOM" (i.e has no BOM) and "(with a default routing)" I.e a genrated operation = has no routing !

If the answer is YES, then please mention the steps to create a production order for a material

without a BOM and routing (not by default routing picked by the sytem)

In reference to the question, The first paragraph quotes "Can we create a production order for a

given material without routing and BOM" { i.e No BOM and Routing should be maintained for a production

order with a material } while second paragraph quotes "we can

create a production order for a material without a BOM (with a default routing) just wanted to check with

the above criteria" { i.e a production order for a material can be created with a default routing and

BOM }. As I see, i donot see answer in my question

What I am interested is there a way where I can create a production order for a material without

BOM and routing

Hi,

Yes ,u could create..You need to maintain a default routing

When u create a order in CO01 ,when u create it asks for selection select the operation and save it an order will be created

Hope its clear

The answer is YES because you can generate an order for a material that does not have a routing or a BOM, but SAP will generate a default operation.

But I agree with the other comments - why would you want to do that in the first place?
