MTO Process

[Former Member]

Hi Friends,

I had the following cases of MTO here:

I had MTO material where my production team will manufacture only after my sale order and rais my stock in FG storage loc.

I had another MTO material where my purchasing team will purchase from vendor and raise my stock in FG storage loc.

In both the cases after raising the stock by them into my FG storage location if I check the availability (MMBE) I should see the stock against to my sales orders.

For testing purpose we raise the stock with special indicator E. But here in reality I heard that this assignment will be done automatically by production team & purchasing team.

If this is correct kindly explain me how??

Explain me in detail at the earliest.

I had MTO material where my production team will manufacture only after my sale order and rais my stock in FG storage loc.

This can be mapped through MTO . ( Please search in Forum regarding MTO Process)

In MTO-

special stock indicator triggered by requirement type: KE ( this requirement type fetch from the strategy group- 20, maintained in MMR)

for more info: Search MTO process in Forum

I had another MTO material where my purchasing team will purchase from vendor and raise my stock in FG storage loc.

its routed through IPO ( Individual Purchase Order), where after saving the sales order system generates Purchase requision automatically ( depends on Sch. Line cat settings same like Third Party Order). You can find the PR no . In Va02- item-schedule lines-Procurement tab.

Item Category: TAB - special Stock Indicator - E Sales order stock.

Purhasing dept converts this PR into PO ( after finding the suitable Vendor) in ME21N & perform the MIGO. Move type 101-E ( Inventory against Sales Order).

Once MIGO is done.

check in Stock overview: Stock will be shown against this SO stock. Then you can dispatch

Hope it helps

Hi all,

what about creating SO/PO link without special stock?

I have a problem with account determination in PO. Even with special stock indicators off in item cat, the system determines one from account determination.

The requirement is to have SO-PO link with unrestricted stock.

Any ideas?

Thx a lot

Hi,

Actually in MTO there will always be assignment of sales order wheather it is Production order or purchase order in case of fully MTO.

So when ever MRP is executed and procrement elements are generated in form of planned order and purchase requisition with sales order assignment.

So whenever GR is done for these stock will be with special stock catagory E
