Redefine Supply Code for Component

Explanation

When a project connected shop order is created through a project miscellaneous demand, a customer order or a manual connection, the material list is always copied from manufacturing standards. If the shop order is connected to a project activity, it should be possible to issue material from either project inventory or the standard inventory. The Redefine Supply Code option for the components will change the supply code between invent order (where the material will be issued from standard inventory) and project inventory or project (where the material will be issued from project inventory).

Both project and project inventory supply codes will reserve and issue material from the relevant project inventory and behave almost the same. The only difference between them is that the project inventory type components are planned by material planning tools like PMRP, while the project type components are not.

Prerequisites

• A shop order must be connected to a project activity by a project miscellaneous demand, a customer order or a manual connection.
• The shop order must have components defined.
• The components must not have been reserved.

System Effects

When a shop order is created from a project miscellaneous demand with the Shop Order supply option and the miscellaneous demand component method of the project is Manually Planned.

• If the supply code originally was Inventory Order, it is changed to Project, and reservation and issue from project inventory is enabled for the components.
• If the supply code originally was Project, it is changed to Inventory Order, and reservation and issue from standard inventory is enabled for the components.

else,

• If the supply code originally was Inventory Order, it is changed to Project Inventory, so that reservation and issue from project inventory is enabled for the components.
• If the supply code originally was Project Inventory, it is changed to Inventory Order, so that reservation and issue from standard inventory is enabled for the components.
