Question no 4220 : Overall Profile

In SAP S/4, what is the purpose of the "Overall Profile" in the Material Master Work Scheduling data view ?

(only one answer)

A) It contain sub-profiles with many default values for various Production Execution functions.
B) It defaults the Production Scheduler Profile.
C) It is for OCM.
D) It contains the Order Type dependent parameters for Production Execution.
E) It is Production Order status flow.
.

Answer: C

The "Overall Profile" is for OCM (Order Change Management)

 
Step 1: IMG > Production > Shop Floor Control > Operations > Change Management for Production Orders (OCM) > Define Change Profile

The pre-requisite is to Define Change Profile (similar IMG path but next to "Define Overall Change Profile", the "Change Profile" defines how to Handle the CONFLICTs when OCM (Order Change Management) is applied to the Production Order.

Step 2: IMG > Production > Shop Floor Control > Operations > Change Management for Production Orders (OCM) > Define Overall Change Profile

And the "Change Profile" will be assigned to the "Overall Profile" which is then assigned to the Material Master.

Question 4085 : Item Status in the BOM item Detail

In SAP PP as at S/4 1909, note the "Item Status" in the BOM item detail below ?

Which of the following parameter controls the above settings ?

(only one answer)

A) Plant + BOM Usage
B) BOM Alternative
C) BOM Group
D) BOM Usage
E) Plant
.

Answer: D

The "BOM Usage" is used to control the "Item Status" in the BOM item detail, Configuration of the "BOM Usage" is in the 2nd screen shot below (IMG - Production - Basic Data - Bill of Material - General Data - BOM Usage - Define BOM Usages) and note the the configuration is Plant independent which means that when creating the BOM for any Plant will use the same set of "BOM Usage" configuration parameters. 

In SAP, the Item Status in a Material BOM controls its usability across different function in a company (like Production or PPDI or PPPI, Sales or SD, Costing or CO, Plant Maintenance or PM), determining if the BOM item is active, inactive, or requires special handling, ensuring only relevant components are used in specific processes in PP, SD, CO, and PM.

Question no 3889 : BOM Categories

In SAP PP as at ECC6.0 EhP6, which of the following are valid BOM Categories ?

(more than one answers)

A)  WBS BOM.
B)  Order BOM.
C)  Document Structure.
D)  Equipment BOM.
E)  Functional Location BOM.
.

Answers: A, B, C, D, E

All of the above.

(T-code CS71) WBS BOM or "Work Breakdown Structure " BOM is created with the Project System WBS as the Header of the BOM. The Production Lot is usually an Engineering to Order scenario for a Project and the result is Goods Receipt of the MTO Production Order into special stock with WBS identifier.

Order BOM or "Sales Order BOM" is also a case of MTO scenario with the Sales Order + Order line item as the Header of the BOM. This can result from the "MTO" Manufacturing Strategy in the MRP 3 data view in the Material Master resulting in the Sales Order item tagged with a specific Requirement Type which specifies it to be a MTO Sales Order. 

MRP run recognizes both the WBS BOM and Order BOM as both the header also has a Material Master (other than WBS and Sales Order number).

(T-code CV11) Document Structure comes with the Header and BOM Items all with Document numbers from the DMS system. The purpose is merely to bring related Documents into a Group as a Hierarchy structure. 

(T-code IB11) Functional Location BOM and (T-code IB01) Equipment BOM is used in PM (Plant Maintenance) and CS (Customer Service) with the Header being PM/CS Functional Location or Equipment Respectively. There are no Material Master in the Header BOM, although the BOM items can be Material Masters just like a standard Material BOM or WBS BOM or Order BOM. Standard MRP run as at ECC6 EhP6 does not recognized BOM explosion in the MRP run processing.

B) Work Scheduling view is for Production Order creation and not required as BOM item if it is a Purchasing Material.
D) In the mention version, MRP Group does not control BOM creation.
E) Purchasing view is for Procurement but not for Production and not required as BOM item if it is a Production Material.
