Documentation

Definition

Indicates that the item is relevant to the production process.
Items with this indicator are copied to the planned order, and the system calculates dependent requirements for them. When the planned order is converted to a production order, the system automatically copies these items to the production order.

This item status indicator is used to control:

  • Subsequent processing in related application areas
  • Selection of items in the BOM explosion

Dependencies

Whether you can set and remove this indicator, or whether the system makes an unchangeable setting, depends on the BOM usage you selected on the initial screen. You can find further information in Customizing for bills of material under General Data -> BOM Usage -> Define BOM usages.

Supplementary Documentation - SANFE 0001

Use

In table T416K, the indicator determines whether items relevant to production can be copied from a specific reference usage to the item status of the new usage.

Supplementary Documentation - SANFE 0002

Dependencies

In the IMG (BOMs), you define for each BOM usage whether this indicator:

  • must be entered
  • can be entered
  • cannot be entered

Supplementary Documentation - SANFE 0003

Procedure

Set this indicator if you want the system to select the items from the determined alternative, which are relevant to production.

Supplementary Documentation - SANFE 0010

Use

You use this indicator to specify that the system only displays BOM items that are defined in the BOM as production-relevant (on the Item Data: Status / Long Text screen.

Procedure

Examples

Dependencies

This indicator does not interrupt the complete explosion of the BOM to the lowest level. The BOM is exploded in 2 steps:

  • First, the system explodes the entire BOM, regardless of the selection indicators you set. You do not see the result of this explosion on the screen.
  • Second, the system reads your selection criteria, such as the Production-relevant items indicator.
    This status indicator acts as a filter. The result of the explosion that you see on the screen only contains the items that match your selection criteria. For this indicator, only production-relevant items are shown.
