Hi Karthik,

Alternate sequence is different from alternate routings

If you wnat to create alternate routing just enter into ca01 tcode

enter material/plant/group no & proceed further as you normally do

You can find the unique value against group counter for each routing,whereas group no will remain the same

Alternate sequence is just to differ from the standard sequence in the same routing

pls find belwo the details of alternative seq from sap help

You use an alternative sequence for example, if

The production flow is different for certain lot-size ranges

For instance you can machine a work piece on conventional machine or on NC machines. A NC machine has a longer set-up time than a conventional machine. However the machining costs are considerably less. Therefore whether you use NC machines will depend on the lot size.

The production flow changes under certain business conditions.

For instance, if you have a capacity problem, you have some production steps performed externally by a vendor.

Hope this is useful

Create Alternate Routings ;- If you want to create a Alternate Routings Go to CA01 enter the material whaich already have routing. Then you can create the Alternate Routings. Which use as differnt manufacturing process.

Please come back if any issue.

hi

for alternative routing you get the same routing number(group number)

for example: you have group 1002 and group counter 1.

if you crate the alternat routing then your group 1002 will be same and the counter get increased with number 2.

i think you are clear.

pl revert still if you have issues
