SFG order seperately

[Former Member]

Hi PP Guru's,

I have scenario like this My FG contains following parts SFG -1 , SFG -2 , SFG -3 , SFG -4 ........ SFG -10 and many components .

In order to restrict no of planned order I am creating few SFG's as phantom assembly and Producing FG in one order type for FG.

In certain cases i need to produce few SFG's which include phantom assembly also in seperate order using another order type

as per customer defects demand .

How can I configure this bz for phantom SFG unable to stock and the same is produced as per demand from FG only .

Expecting your reply .Marks will be awarded accordingly,

Regards,

Jaya

Dear Jaya,

1) if there is separate demand for SFG also then

2) Maintain Strategy 70 for those SFG's & you can maintain PIR's for those SFG's

3) the moment MRP Run's, it checks both independent demand as well as depended demand also

and creates procurement proposals

4 ) Coming to consumption of PIR's of SFG, it will be consumed when you convert header material

plan orders into production orders

Hi Kumar ,

Could you please explain in detail .

My requirement is to reduce planned order for SFG as far as possible here can I use phantom assembly?

The same SFG is required to Produce seperately against specific customer demand or Under spares is it possible to

produce seperately if I am declaring that SFG as phantom assembly . Can I produce the SFG using different order type and

FG material with different order type .

Expecting your reply

Hi Jaya,

You should not face any problem, as the phantom assembly config says, when the material is used as a component in another material the material would behave as phantom, else you could use this as a regular material and get it into stock.

Only when the material is a component in another material, it would behave as phantom assembly.

Hi Madhu ,

when I am using this SFG as material in another FG and my planning strategy is 52 Planning without final assembly ie

I am not keeping the SFG ready and few are In-house & few are external one . My requirement is to reduce inventory of

SFG's and other dependent . which strategy i need to maintain for SFG's now could you please give your reply now?

In other way I have seperate requirement for SFG's produced in-house.

Hi Jaya!

I think your issue that is business issue not technical issue. So, you must think and seperate your SFG. Have 2 kind of SFG now:

1. SFGs need to keep in stock and manage them, can be transfered to another location. You should go with real SFG(not phantom). It has no choice.

2. SFGs no need keep in stock, just keep up to production process, you should use phantom in order to reduce production order

Something wants to share with you.

Hi jaya,

As per your business scenario maintain SFG material in FG BOM as phantom assembly.

ie. In FG BOM you may have SFG1, SFG2.... in item details of SFG1 maintain it as phantom assembly by assigning 50 in spl key field.

By this when ever u run MRP for FG system will consider this SFG1. as phantom assy and palnned order will not generate for this dep req.

If specific customer requirement available for SFG1 then you can creater seperate planned ord or prd ord. as per the requirement. you can get the planned order for SFG1 and u can GR this in stock with respect to sales order and sell the SFG1.

Note: Don't maintain SFG1 as phentom assy in MMR.

Thanks Vinoth my requirement is same exactly match for the business . Is it in the relevant SFG bom in the item detail

do I need to enter 50 Phantom assembly but not in MMR . So when I need to produce seperately against customer demand

I can produce MRP run will trigger planned order?

Please explain / comment on this

Hi jaya,

SFG1, 2, 3.. you need to consider this all sfg as phantom assy for perticular FG, then in FG BOM there will be SFG1 as component, in that component detail you need to maintain as 50 (phantom assy). Like that which ever SFG u need to consider as phantom asyy u need to maintain it as 50 In BOM of header material.

when ever this BOM of header material explodes system will consider that SFG componet as phantom mat.

BY this in plant level that SFG is not phantom assy, only when u use perticular bom that mat behaves as phantom.

I hope you got it now

Test it in sand box, if any query pl come back.
