Order planning and order calculation
This texts describes what LN does between entering a production order and the calculating of the estimated end unit costs.
After a production order is entered, LN generates:
- The production planning. The production planning is derived from the routing and contains the planned number of production hours. The estimated hours are based on the production planning which can be maintained in the Production Planning (tisfc0110m000) session.
The estimated and actual hours are displayed in the Print Estimated vs. Actual Hour Costs (ticst0402m000) session.
- The estimated materials for the order. LN derives the estimated materials by means of the bill of material. You can maintain the estimated materials in the Estimated Materials (ticst0101m000) session. The estimated and actual materials can be displayed in the Estimated vs. Actual Material Costs (ticst0501m000) session.
The estimated materials and estimated hours are input for the calculation of the estimated end-item unit-costs. In this respect, the planned and allocated quantities are related to actual production execution. The estimated quantities are related to the frozen production-order quantity (including scrap and yield (calculation)).
