How can maintenance constant consumption qty on Production BOM?

Posted on by 5

Hi Master,

   Generally, we will maintenance "Quantity Per" quantity which stand for the consumption quantity on every BOM No. on its head.

but now user want to add a constant consumption(Do not statisic quantity under product quantity)

For example:

    BOM No. :  A

    Line No .       No.         Quantity Per

   10000           A01               10

    20000          A02               20        

that means the all consumption will be as following  if the produciton Quantity is 10

    BOM No. :  A   Quantity = 10

    Line No .       No.         Quantity Per   Total Consumption

   10000           A01               10                  10 * 10  = 100

    20000          A02               20                  20 * 10  = 200

How can I add a constant quantity,

for example:

    BOM No. :  A

    Line No .       No.         Quantity Per

   10000           A01               10

    20000          A02               20    (Constant)

  

   BOM No. :  A   Quantity = 10

    Line No .       No.         Quantity Per   Total Consumption

   10000           A01               10                  10 * 10  = 100

    20000          A02               20                    20

Thanks  so much.

    Hi Steve,

    Thanks for your suggestion, As your said, Add a Fixed Qty maybe a good way, but a little bit risky, i am afraid there are a lot of place need to modify which impact by the  new field.

    thanks again

    Hello,

    Adding to what Jerome wrote... You might consider adding a field on the Production BOM line called 'Fixed Quantity' decimal field. You can then add the Component to the Production BOM with an Actual Qty = 1. When the Firm-Planned or Released Prod. Order are Refreshed or Replanned code can be added that when the filed 'Fixed Quantity' is NOT Blank update the Released Prod. Order Components Expected Quantity = Fixed Quantity and the Quantity Per can be updated by taking the Expected Quantity divided by Released Prod. Order Quantity.

    All in all you would need to add this as a customization and the link Jerome provided talks about a few ways others have achieved this.

    Thanks,

    Steve
