Definition

This indicator specifies whether the planned order can be converted into a production order or a process order, or into a purchase requisition.

Note

If the system finds a valid BOM for the planned order and if the release of the BOM for the planned order has been activated in the BOM status, the system automatically sets the conversion indicator in the planned order. If you have not activated the release of the BOM for the planned order, the system does not set the conversion indicator.

If the system cannot find a valid BOM, the coversion indicator is then also set, as production orders without BOMs, that is, without components, can also be created.

You can also set the conversion indicator yourself, independent of the BOM status, in the planned order.
