Manufacturing with Production Order Split and
Batch Derivation (450)
Purpose and Benefits:
Purpose





To model the complete processing of manufacturing, costing, and lot tracking for semiconductor and
photovoltaic internal manufacturing.
This scenario describes a business process, which is typical for semiconductor and photovoltaic
manufacturing including lot-size oriented production.
The production scenario produces a finished good and procures all dependent components in maketo-stock production (MTS).
Work-in-Process (WIP) Batch is used to record the current properties of the material on a quantity
basis. Furthermore the WIP batch ensures that end-to-end batch tracing is possible.
This scenario is supported by the main cost object controlling functions required, such as preliminary
costing and period-end closing.

Production Subcontracting with Co-Products
and Batch Derivation (452)
Purpose and Benefits:
Purpose

During the Manufacturing process, when a "Planned Order" for Production is converted to a
"Production Order", the system will check to see if there are any routing/work-center
operations which require external processing. External processing is when you have individual
production steps, that are operations or sub-operations, which are performed outside of your
company by a vendor. This type of processing is particularly important for subcontracting. It
can also provide a company with a feasible alternative to in-house processing, if capacity
bottlenecks occur.
Benefits


An Info Record can specify that a certain operation of the production order is executed by an
external subcontractor on a regular basis
In the case of capacity bottlenecks, the assembly procedure of the finished product can be
assigned to a subcontractor

Purpose and Benefits:
Purpose

This scenario describes the process of the raw material substitution functionality
in MRP for the photovoltaic industry.
Benefits



Developed new material to replace the old one to finally improve the product.
Assuming material A and B are mutual substitutions, production planner manually
decided which raw material is used during production. An alternative item group is
used to group together alternative items in a BOM.
Assuming discontinued material C has been replaced by material D after the
specific period. Used discontinuation functionality is transfer dependent
requirements of a component to the follow-up materials, if the requirements are
no longer covered by stock.
Key process flows covered

Solar Cell Retesting (460)
Purpose and Benefits:
Purpose

After solar cell have been produced and stored in the warehouse for a period of time, there is a possibility that the
conversion efficiency of some solar cells will change for some unstable reason. So before using solar cells to
assemble to solar module in plant or sell these solar cells to customer directly, the solar cells should be re-tested
and sorted again according to their new conversion efficiency. This scenario describes the solar cell retesting
process.
Benefits
