No WIP need between two operations of same prodn order

[Former Member]

Dear Friends,

Can anybody please help me to resolve this issue,

My client want that for their all Semi finish Materials (Mat Type - HALB), when they crate production order then there are two operation for that(Operation 0010 and 0020), so after completing operation 0010, the stock should goes to restricted stock rather than showing it in WIP as per standard and when  they go for operation 0020, at that time it take quantities from restricted stock for the same material and once this operation 0020 completed then stock goes to unrestricted stock, also the production order number should not change for both the operations. The main thing is that they don't want Work in process status during work on operations and there will be no WIP account posting.

there is few days gap between two operations.

Waiting for your valuable reply.

Thanks,

Naresh

Hi,

An automatic goods receipt can only be posted for one operation per order. You should therefore make sure that only one operation in the order can do automatic goods receipt.

I hope what you want is not possible sending it in restricted and then in unrestricted in same order having two operation. Or else go for order confirmation.

Hello,

If you are using ECC6 with EHP4, see if you can use WIP batches.

HI naresh,

If your costing team permits please try this.

in BOM of HALB keep same material two times with same quantity one time - and one time in +.

assign - line item to the operation 0010 and + in operation 0020. in this way system will do GR for the same material on first operation confirmation and  will consume the same item on confirmation of second operation. as well as do GR with that.

Please keep costing team in confidence.

do not activate Quality inspection for goods receipt(04) in material master. and activate other goods receipt (05) in material master

Hi,

What you are asking is not possible. If you want to show it in stock then it should be a material.

Ex: Order is for material AAA and ROH is material A.

When you complete first operation, there is no material. Material AAA will be produced after completing operation 20. If you want to show it in stock then create a material and keep two order types. In same production order it is not possible.

Hi,

They would think of separating these operations into two production orders, issuing goods to second order once the first order is completed. However I don't think that avoiding WIP is possible this way. There is always a chance that these operations will be in process at period end, and they have to post the balance to an account.

Dear Sir,

They are not seperating these two operations into two production orders, they want that after 1st operation confirmation material goes to blocked/restricted stock i.e. in MMBE and later on say after 2-3 days they will confirm 2nd operation and stock goes to Unrestricted stock

Thanks,
