Short text
Phantom Assembly in iPPE (New)
Use
Phantom assemblies are assemblies whose decomposition is documented in the system. However, phantom assemblies do not exist as actual, physical structures.
Phantom assemblies can be used more than once in a product structure without being documented in the system multiple times. Changes made to a phantom assembly are automatically made at other locations, thus not creating any extra work for the user. Errors resulting from the manual maintenance of data are also reduced.
- Phantom assemblies do not create any dependent requirements because they do not have a physical structure. Only the components of the phantom assembly will create dependent requirements, and are included during backflush.
- Items for the assembly and the components are generated in a planned order each time the phantom assembly is used.
- You can maintain configurable and non-configurable phantom assemblies in the iPPE product structure. Configurable phantom assemblies are displayed by product variant structures, and non-configurable phantom assemblies by iPPE assemblies.
- You can create multi-level phantom assemblies.
- iPPE phantom assemblies are included in the following applications:
- Material requirements planning in R/3
- Configuration simulation in the iPPE Workbench
- Planning matrix in SAP APO
