| Exceptions in unit effectivityAn exception in unit effectivity is the definition of a
deviation that applies to a unit effective item. An exception indicates, for
example, whether a specific BOM line or a specific routing operation is used
for an effectivity unit. Exceptions are often created as a result of customer
requirements, or technology upgrades. An exception is defined for an object. The exception indicates
whether the object is valid or invalid. The objects for which you can define
exceptions in LN are: - Engineering BOM lines
- Production BOM lines
- Routings
- Routing operations
- Sources of supply strategies
- Item – supplier data
For example, if you define an exception for a BOM line, it means
that the BOM line is valid or invalid (dependent on the setting of the Valid
check box) for an item with a specific effectivity unit. In case you define an
exception for item – supplier data, it means that a specific purchase business
partner is used to supply components for a specific unit effective
item. An exception is on the one hand linked to an object and on the
other hand to an effectivity unit, or to a requirement as well as an
effectivity unit: Check box settings for objects For every object, always two check boxes are present with
regard to exceptions: - Exceptions Present check box. If this check box is
selected, one or more exceptions are defined for the object.
- StandardConfiguration check box. If this check box
is selected, the object is part of an item’s standard configuration. The costs
for the object are included in the standard cost price. If the StandardConfiguration check box is cleared, the
object is not part of an item’s standard configuration. The costs for the
object are not included in the standard cost price. The StandardConfiguration check box in combination with
the setting of the Valid check box in the Exceptions (tcuef0105m000) session indicates whether an object is used for a
specific effectivity unit.
- If the StandardConfiguration check box is selected, and the Valid check box is cleared for an exception linked to
the object, the object will be omitted for a specific effectivity unit or
requirement.
- If the StandardConfiguration check box is cleared, and the Valid check box is selected for an exception linked
to the object, the object will be added for a specific effectivity unit or
requirement.
