How to Create Production version in SAP PP C223

 The production version is the link between a product BOM (Bill of Material) and the process Routing. It determines which alternative BOM is used together with which routing to produce a material or plan a material.

There may be different production versions based on the lot sizes and validity dates.


For example, there may be different versions if you want to produce 1 – 100 liter of paint than 100 – 1000 liter of paint, as such the different composition of BOM may be required in both cases.


  • It comprises of the following data:
  1. The assignment of routings to the production version
  1. The assignment of the alternative BOM to the production version
  • Production versions are used in material requirements planning (MRP), production order creation, and product costing to select the most suitable routing and the corresponding bill of material.

In order to create production version, perform the following steps-


Step 1) From SAP Easy access screen open transaction C223

  1. Enter Plant Code.
  1. Enter parent material for which production version needs to be created.
  1. Enter Material code.
  1. Input the production version code and text.
  1. Input the validity dates of the production version.
  1. Input the lot size range where it would be valid.
  1. Input Alternative BOM and BOM usage as “1” for production BOM.
  1. Enter Routing Group and Counter.
  1. Enter type of task list, i.e., routing.

After filling in all the fields, click How to Create Production version in SAP PP C223 or press Enter to go to the next screen.


Step 2) In this screen,


  1. Select the line of the newly created production version.
  2. Press “consistency check” to check whether BOM and routing are valid.

Step 3) In this screen, you can see the messages regarding the validity of BOM and routing for the material.


  1. Check whether task list routing exists in the validity period (01.01.2015 – 31.12.9999) and lot sizes (0 – 99999999) of the production version.
  1. Check whether BOM exists in the validity period (01.01.2015 – 31.12.9999) and lot sizes (0 – 9999999999999) of the production version.

Troubleshooting


  • There might be the case where in BOM and Routing are not valid in production version validity time frame. Ensure that validity period of production falls between validity period for both BOM and Routing.

Bill of Material (BoM) in SAP PP: Create, Change, Display

  What is Bill of Material (BOM) and its role? A bill of material is a complete, formally structured list of the components that make up a product or assembly. The list comprises of the material number of each component, together with the quantity and unit of measure. BOM can be single level and multi-level. For example, finished material would contain semi-finished materials as components which in turn would contain raw materials as components in next level. There can be different alternative BOMs for a product depending upon the lot sizes, validity dates, and different production methods. BOM is used in production planning for semi-finished and purchase planning for raw materials. BOM’s are also used in standard cost calculation for finished Product by rolling up the cost from raw to semi-finish and then to finished Product. Material BOM can be made for material in PP module and equipment BOM are used in Plant Maintenance module. How to create BOM Step 1)  From SAP Easy access screen

Introduction to SAP PP (Production Planning)

  What is Production Planning? Production Planning is the process of aligning demand with manufacturing capacity to create production and procurement schedules for finished products and component materials. SAP PP is an important module of SAP. It tracks and makes a record of the manufacturing process flows, for example, the planned and actual costs. Also, goods movements from the conversion of raw material to semi-finished goods. It is fully integrated with the other SAP modules: SD, MM, QM, FICO & PM. Organization Structure in SAP PP In any live Production Planning module, locations of manufacturing plants and storage within the plants, should be available in the system. Importance of Plant and storage locations in Production Planning- All Production master data is created at Plant level. Planning activities are also performed at Plant level. Production Confirmation process and related goods movement occur at plant and storage location level. Master Data in SAP PP Master data is

Production Order in SAP: CO01, MD16, CO02, CO15

  A production order defines which material is to be processed, at which location, and at what time and how much quantity is required. It also defines which components and sequence of operations are to be used and how the order costs are to be settled. Planned orders are results of running MRP. Shortages of materials that are set to internal procurement will create planned orders, which can be converted into production orders. Production orders are “hard copies”; they cannot be adjusted by an MRP run anymore. BOM and routing data of the materials are copied into the production order which determines the list of components and operational data in the order. Planned Costs also gets updated in the production order via component price and routing activity price. You can run an availability check on production orders which determines any missing components in the order so that you can bring that missing component for the order execution at shop floor. You can print the production order for

SAP PP Capacity Planning: CM01, CM21

  The main function of capacity planning is to check the load at Work Center and do the capacity leveling i.e. balance the load at Work Center. It helps to calculate the production capacity based on the requirement of the product against the available capacity of the work center. MRP works with infinite capacity and creates planned orders at the Work Center at the same time since it assumes that Work Center is available all the time. So, it creates planned orders on the same date based on the requirements despite capacity shortages. You can execute those orders on that Work Center in the system which is not practically feasible in the shop floor. The main objective of the capacity leveling includes leveling overloads at Work Center and to achieve optimum utilization of Work Centers. MRP generated planned orders are converted to production orders which determine which Work Center is to be used, and accordingly the capacity requirements are generated on that Work Center. Capacity levelin

SAP PP Reports Tutorial: COOIS, MB52, CS15, CS12

  There are many reports available in SAP pertaining to Master Data, Production Orders and Goods Movement against orders. It helps users to view the overall situation of the plant with ease Through PP reports, you can view Production and Consumption data about the material for the specific time period. Current Plant stock can also be displayed real time You can also see target order quantity to be executed and track the orders through various order status via standard SAP reports How to display order information systems This order info system displays the list of orders along with the quantity, dates, and their status. You can also see the goods movement on the orders. This gives view for the shop floor person to plan and execute the orders which are on priority, and you can see the actual delivered quantity against the plan. Step 1)  From SAP Easy access screen open transaction COOIS Select the option “Order Headers” in the List field Flag production orders checkbox Enter your manufac
