Suppluy area in a different plant

[Former Member]

Hi,

I create a Production order in Plant 1000 and I need to draw material from Plant 1200 to execute the production.

Can i have Supply area in plant 1000 and when Prod Order is confirmed stock has to get consumed from supply area in plant 1200.

Can it be possible? If yes pls explain what are the settings required for it.

Regards

Dear Shrinivas

You could draw the ram material from other plants, for this the raw material master data should be set to externally procured in Plant 1000 and you should use a special procurement key in Plant 1200.

When you run the MRP, then a demand element would be created on the plant 1200, which is then transferred to the plant 1000 thereby it is consumed in plant 1200.

On receipt at plant 1000, you issue the material to the production order or you could use backflush depending upon the scenario at your end.

with kind regards
