Activate sites - In preparation, generate other site related master data

Generating site related master data other than item data is a mandatory step in the site activation process.

The other than item master data are generated using the Generate Master Data (tccom0231m000) session. This session is only available if the activation status is In Preparation.

For the best results, and to avoid overburdening the system, you are recommended not to generate all site related master data at once but to complete this process by carrying out the following steps one by one, in the indicated order.

In each step performed in the Generate Master Data (tccom0231m000) session, it is recommended to select the Simulation, Process Report, and Error Report check boxes and correct any errors before actually generating master data. You can repeat running the simulation until all errors are corrected.

In the Other Master Data group box of the Generate Master Data (tccom0231m000) session, select:

  1. The For Common check box to add the Ship-from Site and the Ship-to Site to the Scenarios by Landed Costs Set (tclct1105m000) session. In this session, the site of the Ship-from Warehouse is defaulted to the Ship-from Site, and the site of the Ship-to Warehouse is defaulted to the Ship-to Site.

  2. The For Production check box to add sites to Manufacturing data.

  7. The For Warehousing check box to generate Warehousing master data by site. If the kit type is Product, the Site field is populated with the site related to the supply-from and supply-to warehouse.

    If the supply-from and supply-to warehouses have different sites, a site is not added and an error is listed in the report. If the kit type is Line Station, the site of the first warehouse of the first kit component is assigned.

  8. In the Validate Master Data for Multisite (tccom0230m100) session, complete these steps to validate the data:

    • In the Other Master Data column, select the All check box.
    • Click Validate.
