Hi,

You can have both under same plant. Genrally, repetitive mfg set up wil have Product cost collector and Deiscreate runs with Order.

So, for Product cost collector materials, it is mandatory to select Production versiion (C223) and create Product cost collector( KKF6N). You can do planning as usual and confirm through transaction code MFBF. For Product cost collector materials, there is no need to create even production order, u can confirm planned order (MFBF). Please make sure, in material master data should be with repetitive manufacturing profile and tick mark.

I hope, it will help you!

I think you can use both in a plant. I am not quite sure of settings for that.

Order category determines if it is a production order or product cost collector. If order type is created with order category 5 it is a product cost collector and if it is 10 it is a production order.
