Hello Everyone,
This document explains the steps required to configure a system for Production planning in a cross Plant/Company set-up. Many members post questions with a bit of variation regarding this scenario. Hopefully, This blog will address the below 2 scenarios.
Business Scenario 1: Same Company code different Plant
The customer is placing a Sale Order in the 7001 plant.
The manufacturings of the products are happening in different plants.(i.e Assembly of the product happening in the plant (7001) and Semi-finished products are produced in another plant(7002)).
The demand from 7001 plant should come to 7002 plant and need to produce them according to the requirement.
After manufacturing the semi-finished product, the products from 7002 plant stock will be shipped(Stock transport Order) to the assembly plant (7001) for the assembling process.
Prerequisites:
Master Data:
Master Data Changes:
For 321 material maintain the same changes.
Configuration:
Special Procurement Key: 70,80 and 90.
Special Procurement Key: 70 in SFG manufacturing plant
Special Procurement Key: 80 and 90 in FG/Assembly plant
Demand in both Plants (7001,7002)
In the 7001 plant, we will get STO PR. PR can be converted in STO purchase order. The item category will be “U”.
Please continue the normal STO process.
Business Scenario 2: Different Company code different Plant
The customer is placing a Sale Order in the 7001 plant.
The manufacturings of the products are happening in different plants.(i.e Assembly of the product happening in the plant (7001) and Semi-finished products are produced in another plant(8002) under 8000 Company code).
The demand from 7001 plant should come to 8002 plant and need to produce them according to the requirement.
After manufacturing the semi-finished product, the products from 8002 plant stock will be shipped(Stock transport Order) to the assembly plant (7001) for the assembling process.
Demand in both Plants (7001,8002)
In the 7001 plant, we will get STO PR. PR can be converted in STO purchase order. The item category will be “U”.
Please continue the normal STO process.
Conclusion:
The production cost will capture in respective manufacturing plants. if the plants are in a different place then you can add transportation cost in the STO P.O.
There is N number of scenarios for Multi Plant/Company Planning, I hope this blog has established a baseline understanding of how Multi Plant Planning works.
If you have any queries please feel free to ask.
