Hi,

Generally when u create a plant, it is better to copy & assign since all the settings will flow directly.

Even without copying u can do go to new entries & add the things. But it is not suggestable.

HI,

Before copying from the standard copy you have to define the plant on your own. But without copying the plant is not 100% created as and when you copy from the standard plant all the tables and fields of all the MM related functionality will be coipied.

Without copying from the standard plant in OX10 it is not at all possible.

Thanks & Regards,

Kiran

hi,

Yes you can create Plant from "Define Plant" from the same path...

But when you donot copy the existing plant..then you need to provide all the assignements..like Plant to co code, Define valuation area for your plant, plant to storage location etc..

Hope it helps..

hi

it is always advisable to copy plant

the process to creat eplant is as follows

Plant 0001 is the SAP default provide for your reference.

OX14 - Define Valuation Area (Tick one only- Once your system go live, no more changes)

Most company take the SAP recommended choice - Value Material Stock at Plant level

Value Material Stock at Plant or Company Level

If you valuate material stocks at plant level, the plant is the valuation area.

If you valuate material stocks at company code level, the company code is the valuation area.

The decision you make applies to the whole client.

OX10 - Create / Change / View Plants

OVXB - Create / Change / View Division

OX18 - Assign Plant to company code

e.g. 0001 - 0001 - All Plants

Px1 - Plant Px1

Px2 - Plant Px2

OX19 - Assignment of company code to the Controlling Area

OB38 - Assign company code to Credit Control Area

OMJ7 - Assign business area to Plant/Valuation area and division

e.g. Plant Px1 - Business Area Bx1

Bx2

Assign Valuation area to the Business Area

.e.g. Valuation area Vx1 - Business Area Bx1

Business Area Bx2

OMS0 - Assign Factory Calendar to the Plant and Business Area

The plant plays an important role in the following areas:

Material Valuation - If the valuation level is the plant, the material stocks are valuated at plant level. Each plant can have its own material prices and account determination.

Inventory Management - The material stocks are managed within a plant.

MRP - Material requirements are planned for each plant. Each plant has its own MRP data. Analyses for materials planning can be made across plants.

Production - Each plant having they own production/planning.

Costing - In costing, valuation prices are defined only within a plant.

Plant Maintenance - If a plant performs plant maintenance planning tasks, it is defined as a maintenance planning plant. A maintenance planning plant can also carry out planning tasks for other plants (maintenance plants).

If you want to use the application PP (production planning) or product costing and job-order costing, you must set valuation at plant level.

The valuation level that you choose affects

the maintenance of material master records

the G/L accounts in which material stocks are managed

the G/L accounts to which transactions are posted in Materials Management

Effect on the maintenance of material master records:

Depending on the valuation level chosen,

you maintain accounting data in the material master record for each plant or for each company code

you define a valuation price for the material in each plant or in each company code

Effect on G/L accounts:

If material stocks are valuated at company code level, all plant stocks of a material are managed in a joint stock account for each company code.

If material stocks are valuated at plant level, you can manage the material stocks for each plant in different accounts. For each plant, you can define a separate determination.

If several plants are to use account determination, you can group these plants in "Valuation and Account Assignment" Customizing.
