GR quantity less than Production Order quantity

1673 Views

Hello all

I am working at a client where they produce Make-To-Order items specific to a Sales Order by triggering an Assembly Order (Production Order).

Now I am facing a tricky situation & hence want some advice from you guys.

In a generac scenario when an order comes for a MTO material ABC, a Production Order is triggerred for that item.

I can navigate to this Production Order from the Sales Order > Schedule Line tab (Just FYI)

Now once the Production Order is confirmed for each Operation on the floor using CO11N, the material is receipted in the Inventory & the requirement gets fulfilled.

Now sometimes the Production Order is Goods Receipted for a Lesser quantity as compared to the Production Order Quantity.

e.g. Sales Order Quantity = Production Order Quantity = 3 EA & the Delivered Quantity (GR qty) = 1 EA

In such a case, in MD04 the system still shows an open requirement for 2 EA on the same Production Order Number

Is there a way to trigger another Production Order for the remaining quantity automatically ?

If anyone can share their thoughts proposing possible solutions to handle such a scenario, it would be a great help.

I am an SD consultant & hence cant think ways to handle the scenario & propose it to the Business.

Any help will be appreciated

Thanks

Vin
