LOG_PP_XS_RTG_PO: XSteps in Routings and Production Orders

Use

As of SAP ECC 6.0, Enterprise Extension SCM, Enhancement Package 3 (EA-SCM 603) Business Function XSteps for Routing and PO (LOG_PP_XS_RTG_PO), you can use execution steps (XSteps) for routings and production orders.

You can use XSteps to describe the concrete execution of production. Execution steps and standard execution steps have hitherto been used in process industries and can now also be used in routings and production orders.

It has been necessary to adjust certain central terms for discrete manufacturing:

  • For the PI sheet, the term work instructions is used.

In production plants of discrete industries (part manufacturing and assembly industries), it is very often necessary to realize a timely, close-knit exchange of manufacturing-relevant data in between an ERP system and the independent level of the manufacturing process (machines, individuals, production control station, machine control computer etc.).

For a production order to be executed at this level and controlled, settled and also changed in the ERP system, the planning level in the ERP system must pass on data such as product data, input materials, manufacturing and setup time specifications, setting parameters, recipe data and target quantities to the manufacturing level, and the latter must report back to the ERP system as promptly as possible the quantities actually manufactured, the actual manufacturing times, scrap quantities, and any other data that may be required.

The use of execution steps (XSteps) supports the individuals involved at manufacturing level in the following ways:

  • Transfer of any freely selectable parameters to any recipients at the manufacturing level (see above).
  • Generation of variable, browser-based work instructions for the direct guidance of the machine operator.
  • Use of variable process messages for direct execution or derivation of confirmations from the work instructions or from process control computers
  • Sending of these process messages to predefined message recipients (destinations) including the direct, automatic updating of the confirmation data (actual time, material consumption, warehouse receipt, status progress, etc.) in a production order
  • Over and above the above-mentioned possibilities, production-accompanying quality checks/inspections, the creation of a batch, or the determination of the batch or product characteristics can be carried out during production and goods movements posted in inventory management.

With the scope of functions provided by the Execution Steps, the user of production orders is offered an option for coupling the ERP system with the manufacturing level that is far superior to the previously known and widely used interface PP-PDC (KK2).

Execution steps can be set up and changed in a standard XStep repository. You can use the standard execution steps from the standard XSteps repository multiple times and maintain them centrally.

An XStep editor in which you can enter XSteps directly is available to you in the routing and the production order.

You make the settings for XSteps in Customizing under Production -> Basic Data -> Execution Steps.

You make settings for process integration in Customizing under Production -> Shop Floor Control -> Integration -> Process Integration.
