Question no 3974 : Leading and Dependent Orders in Manufacturing

In SAP Production Planning, ______________ represent multilevel production structures for materials produced in-house in which the manufacturing order for the highest material in the structure automatically generates manufacturing orders for the semi-finished products in the structure. The output quantity of the manufacturing orders for the semi-finished products is the quantity required for the manufacture of the highest material.

(only one answer)

A. Multi-level Production.
B. Joint Production.
C. Collective Orders.
D. Production Version.
E. Special Procurement Key.

Answer: C

Collective orders can consist of planned orders or manufacturing orders (production orders or process orders).
A collective order consists of the following:
A leading order
The leading order is the order at the highest level of the collective order. It is created to manufacture the finished product.
Dependent orders
All orders below the leading order are dependent orders. The system automatically creates the dependent orders for the leading order. Dependent orders can be subordinate to each other on multiple levels of the collective order.
Changes to higher-level orders (such as a changed order quantity or release of the order) are immediately reflected in all dependent orders when the order is saved.

Negative Stock Setup in S/4

Setting up Negative stocks may not be desirable but if it is required it can be setup specifically for each Material for particular storage location (example: the shop floor locations) for selected Materials. However, Negative stocks always indicate that physical movements must be entered in the system at a later stage. 

If Negative stock is not setup, then it is also possible to setup material for COGI (post processing) during the Backflushing process or a Production Order. 

see the blog post link below for how to setup Negative Stock and COGI.

https://froggysap.blogspot.com/2023/07/mm-pp-negative-stocks-and-cogi.html

Backflush is used for automatic goods issue during order/operation confirmation. In SAP, backflushing can be activated for each Material in the MRP2 view for a Plant OR it can also be set "to depend on Work Center setting". If the later was set, then components assigned to the operation for that Work Center will have the backflushed at the operation confirmation. However, there can be many issues related to inventory inaccuracies of the component in the shop floor due to backflushing. 

1. Ensure all staged materials are transferred to the shop floor in standard packing. 
2. Any defects of the components must be reported. 
3. Extra (additional) component quantities must be segregated or return to the warehouse.
4. Ensure staged materials stock counting frequently to ensure reasons for inaccuracies are treated on time.
5. Shop floor stocks should be under the responsibility of the production department.

How to setup background via a standard SAP transaction for a Program

Background job is setup as a non-interactive process that runs behind the normal interactive operations at specific intervals. Whether it is ECC or S/4, Background Jobs are scheduled using transaction code  SM36 and usually this is done by the Basis Consultant (or Netweaver/BTP Consultant). Users can then analyze the Background Jobs via transaction code SM37 by viewing its job log.

S/4 Hana backend continues to make available t-codes SM36 and SM37 for Background Job creation or Monitoring. However, S/4 Hana Fiori App in specific modules provide a "user-friendly" method of creating Background Jobs. see the example of how Background Jobs are created using S/4 Backend and S/4 Fiori App on the Blog Post link below:
