Delink Production order from Sales order in MTO

[Former Member]

We have created SO for an item with MTO strategy. The planned order is converted to prodcution order , CRTD and REL. Now during execution (say at operation 30) we would like to reassign the Production order to a different Sales order.

How can we reverse and reassign cost to the new Sales Order?

You cannot reassign this to different sales order...

The way we found is,

what we do is make a GR with 501.

Close that order.

Create a new order against that new sales order.

Release the order from 30 operation( as in yr example)

Settle the old order against this order. So that all the cost is assigned to the new order.

Make an issue of the product what you got into inventory through 501.

I am doing these steps to get the correct cost...and the changing of sales order is a common scenario. Hence I developed a prog to take care of the steps I explained above.

Please go for the development if your no of orders are more and manually you just cannot control, otherwise manual will be the best method as developing the prog is very cumbersome as many validations are to be build up and detailed log and error handing mechanism.
