Documentation

Definition

Quantity to which the in-house production time and the processing time of the material relate.

Supplementary Documentation - BASMG 0001

Use

The base quantity is needed to calculate the lot size dependent in-house production time. The system then uses the in-house production time to determine the planned dates for planned orders in materials planning.

Procedure

You can define work scheduling times in the material master record in one of two ways:

  • Either you enter the in-house production time. If required, you can get the system to update this value from the routing.
  • Or you enter the setup, teardown, processing, and interoperation times. If you maintain these values, the system determines the in-house production time on the basis of lot size.
