Experts,
Please advice.
We are using make-to-order with variant configuration. Below is the business scenario. How can it be handled in SAP?
Below are the details.
Plant 3000, Company Code 1000, Sales Org 2000.
Plant 3100, Company Code 1100, Sales Org 2100.
Material A (KMAT)
Material B (KMAT)
Material B is a component of Material A.
Plant 3000 receives a sales order from the customer for Material A. But Material A is manufactured in Plant 3100. To manufacture Material A, Plant 3100 requires Material B. Material B is manufactured in Plant 3000. After completion of production, Plant 3100 ships Material A directly to the customer and bills Plant 3000 for the value addition and freight charges. Plant 3000 bills the customer for Material A.
The variant details for both Materials A and B are given by the customer. But Sales order has only Material A as a line item in Plant 3000. The variant configuration for both Materials A and B are captured under this one sales order line item of Material A. How will the demand and variant configuration details for Material A get transferred from Plant 3000 to Plant 3100? Material A is supposed to drive demand for Material B in Plant 3100. How will this happen? In turn, how will the demand and variant configuration details for Material B get transferred from Plant 3100 to Plant 3000?
There could also be cases where Plant 3100 makes both Material A and Material B in situations where Plant 3000 does not have the capacity to make Material B.
Thanks & Regards,
