Standard-to-order items in Project Control

If you generate a PCS project from a sales order in the Generate (Project) Structure for Sales Orders (tdsls4244m000) session, you must select a method to generate the item structure for items with order policy To Order:

  • Standard-to-Order
  • Engineer-to-Order

If you select Standard-to-Order, LN does not create a customized BOM or a customized routing at any level in the product structure; this means that you can no longer change the BOM or routing for a specific project. Note that in the Projects (tipcs2101m000) session, the Engineering Allowed check box is cleared.

If you select Standard-to-Order instead of Engineer-to-Order, the database growth is limited, which improves system performance.
