Use

In this IMG activity, you set that change pointers are written for production process models (PPMs). This is a prerequisite for ensuring that changes to BOMs, production versions, routings, and master recipes in the ERP system lead to a corresponding adjustment of the PPM in SAP APO.

Report RSPPMCHG (transaction CFP3) can be used to evaluate change pointers and retransfer the PPMs affected to SAP APO.

Report RSPPMDEL (transaction CFP4) can be used to delete the change pointers (for example, if they are not relevant to SAP APO).

Activities

Make the following entries in table TCHTR (the first column contains the object type, the second contains the name of the function module):

BOM CIF_BOM_CHANGED (change to BOM)

PRODVER CIF_MKAL_CHANGED (change to production version)

ROUTING CIF_ROUTING_CHANGED (change of routing/master recipe)

Further notes

Note the following restrictions:

  • Change pointers are not written for changes to the BOMs of phantom assemblies
  • Change pointers are not written for the routing for changes to a reference operation set that references a standard routing.
  • Change pointers are not written for changes to referenced objects (for example, component scrap in the material master).
  • Change pointers are not written for routing changes or recipe changes when changes are made at the operation using classification with code OPCA.
