Special stock indicator in Production Order Component overview

[Former Member]

Hi Team,

I have one finished product , for which i have created BOM . It has only one component in it .

Now i am creating a Sales order , based on the definition and requirement set , system is creating a production order in background.

When i go to production order and see components overview screen , there is one field special stock . This is getting filled with '1' - Individual customer stock always.

Even though we have stock in storage location , it is expecting components to be in Sales order stock .

If i create a stand alone production order for same materials , there is no special stock indicator set in components .

Can any body let me know how is this special stock field getting populated and what settings has to be reviewed in order to supress the same.

Thanks,

Remove special stock indicator "E" in item category.

Hi ,

If i remove special stock indicator E , then Finished product will not come into sales order stock.

Sudhakar,

Check the MRP parameter 'Individual/Coll' in MRP4 view for the components. This should be set as 2 for collective planning. If this flag is left blank then planning will be based on the parent material (If the parent material is planned for special stock then the components will also be planned for special stock)

Let me know if this helps.

Thanks,

HI

When you create Production Orders against the Sales Order the stock created in Production Orders are stored under sales order stock.The quantity of the Sales Order stock will be delivered only refernece to this sales order.This scenario is Make to Production.

Please clarify

Hi ramesh ,

Youa are speaking about Finished Product .

I am speaking about Raw materials which are going to be consumed in production process.

System is expecting raw materials to be available in sales order stock .

I am seeking for an answer on removing this configuration.

Hi Sudhakar

For Raw materials which are used in production process

the movement type would be 261( E ) will be placed under sales order stocks
