Documentation

Definition

Position of an item in an alternative item group.

Use

With respect to withdrawal postings, the ranking order determines which material components from the alternative item group should be taken into account for the reservation in the production order.

  • Withdrawal according to usage probability

    For all items that should be reserved, maintain:

    • strategy (value 1 or no entry)
    • ranking order (only effects the material sort)
    • usage probability
  • Withdrawal on 100% availability

    For all items that should be reserved, maintain:

    • ranking order
    • If you do not enter the ranking order, the system checks the items in the order that they are transmitted to the availability check.
    • strategy (value 2)
    • usage probability

Procedure

Example

Three items (0060 und 0065 and 0070) are assigned to an alternative item group and are given the following values for ranking order:

position    ranking order

0060    3

0065    2

0070    1

This means that the system reads item 0070 first.
