Redefine Supply Code for Component
Explanation
When a project connected shop order is created through a project
miscellaneous demand, a customer order or a manual connection, the material list
is always copied from manufacturing standards. If the shop order is connected to
a project activity, it should be possible to issue material from either project
inventory or the standard inventory. The Redefine Supply Code option for
the components will change the supply code between invent order (where the
material will be issued from standard inventory) and project inventory or
project (where the material will be issued from project inventory).
Both project and project inventory supply codes will reserve and issue material
from the relevant project inventory and behave almost the same. The only
difference between them is that the project inventory type components are
planned by material planning tools like PMRP, while the project type components
are not.
Prerequisites
- A shop order must be connected to a project activity by a project
miscellaneous demand, a customer order or a manual connection.
- The shop order must have components defined.
- The components must not have been reserved.
System Effects
When a shop order is created from a project miscellaneous demand with the Shop
Order supply option and the miscellaneous demand component method of the project is
Manually Planned.
- If the supply code originally was Inventory Order, it is changed to
Project, and reservation and issue from project inventory is enabled for the
components.
- If the supply code originally was Project, it is changed to Inventory
Order, and reservation and issue from standard inventory is enabled for the
components.
else,
- If the supply code originally was Inventory Order, it is changed to
Project Inventory, so that reservation and issue from project inventory is
enabled for the components.
- If the supply code originally was Project Inventory, it is changed
to Inventory Order, so that reservation and issue from standard
inventory is enabled for the components.
