Validate Subcontracting Settings of Routing Operations (tirou1215m000)

In case of subcontracting without material flow support, LN checks whether the following conditions are met:

• For each subcontracted operation, an item of type Subcontracted Service must be present in the Subcontracting Rates (ticpr1160m000) session.
• Subcontracting rates must exist for the subcontracting work center.

In case of subcontracting with material flow support, LN performs these checks:

• LN checks BOM loops: a sub item is not allowed to occur in the parent path.

  If the main item has subcontracting with material flow support, LN checks all BOM levels until it finds a phantom, for which Subcontracting with Material Flow is "No". LN then checks the routing of this phantom and searches, one level higher in the BOM, for the next phantom.

• The following checks are performed:

  Note: For non-Standard Configuration routings, these checks are performed only if you select Specific in the Configuration field, and if the operation is valid for the selected Effectivity Unit.

  • Subcontracting rates must exist for the subcontracting work center.
  • The Subassembly field in the Routing Operations (tirou1102m000) session must have a value if the operation is a subcontracting operation, or the next operation is a subcontracting operation. Note: this rule does not apply if no next operation exists or the next operation is a subcontracting operation for the same subcontractor.
  • If the last operation of a main item or phantom routing is subcontracted, the Subassembly Warehouse field in the Routing Operations (tirou1102m000) session must have a value.
  • Each item entered as subassembly in the Subassembly field in the Routing Operations (tirou1102m000) session must have a cost price and cost price structure.
  • If a phantom has a standard routing, the project segment of subassemblies defined on the phantom's routing must be empty or equal to the project segment of the end item.
  • If an operation is performed on a subcontracting work center, that work center must have a shop floor warehouse.
  • For the shop floor warehouse of a subcontracting work center to which a subassembly is moved, the subassembly's supply system must be Order Controlled/Single.
  • If a subassembly's supply warehouse or a subcontracting work center's shop floor warehouse have been defined, they must be equal to the warehouse defined for the subassembly in the Items - Ordering (tcibd2500m000) session.
