Routing positions cannot produce negative costs. These are always zero.
Post-calculation
Planned cost:
Bill of Materials: negative costs
Routing position: zero
Real costs:
Bill of Materials: Sum of all transactions
Routing position: Sum of all time receipts. It can only be positive value.
Configuration example for disassembly:
For disassembly there is no main product. Use a service item (not storage-related) and define the resulting products in the BoM. Expected quantities are entered as negative.
Service item
|_ Product 1 |_ Product 2
Configuration example for a by-product:
For by-products indicate a main product on top level. This way you can work with offcut and reuse waste material.
If the stored value is NULL, MENGE_VERBRAUCH will be used.
In th entry window, INPUT_QTY is entered, using INPUT_FACTOR the column MENGE_VERBRAUCH is calculated.

Note:
If an issue or receipt document is created for this position or the position has order-related sub-assemblies, it is not possible to change the quantity.
It is possible to change this field every time and to every UoM which is defined in the Unit of measurement.
UoM Group is defined in defined item
If a Unit of Measurement Group is defined in the Master Data of this Material, you can choose only an UoM defined in the UoM Group. It is not possible to change the Factor in this window.
Related to the conversion formula and current values of this BoM Position, the system calculates the Quantity in Production UoM and then the Inventory UoM.
UoM Group is not defined in the item
If the item does not have a UoM Group, you can choose every UoM.
You can define a factor between this input unit and production unit only if the defined UoM is not the Production UoM of this item.
Note: Beas ignores length/width/height change as these are part of the Conversion factor - formula.
If you change the UoM factor in the item master data, or if you change the formula in the UoM, it does not affect the existing Bill of materials positions. The system takes the conversion factor defined in this window.
If you create a work order and the UoM Group is not defined, the system ignores the UoM and UoM Factor definition, and always works with production UoM.
Related to the conversion factor, the system calculates the Quantity in Production UoM and then the Inventory UoM.
It is possible to change this field every time and to every UoM, which is defined in the Unit of measurement.
if a Unit of Measurement Group is defined in the Master Data from this Material, you can choose only an UoM defined in the UoM Group.
Note: It is important that a UoM Conversion factor is defined in UoM Conversion.
Related to the conversion formula and current values of this BoM Position, the system calculates the Quantity in Production UoM and then the Inventory UoM.
If you change the Input unit, the Quantity will be calculated based on quantity in production UoM and on the Conversion formula defined in the UoM Conversion.
If you change the Quantity in input UoM, the system calculates the quantity in production UoM and in inventory UoM based on UoM Conversion.
If you change the quantity with BeasScript or import hub, the system overwrites the Input Unit with Production UoM.
If you refresh the work order, the system overwrites the Input Unit with Production UoM.
In Work order Bill of Materials you can activate the Input Unit via window settings. But this fields is not changeable.
If you change the quantity in Production UoM, the system overwrites the Input unit with Production UoM.
UoM Conversion
If Unit of Measurement Group is defined in the Master Data of this Material, the system tries to use the conversion factor defined in the UoM Group.
If it is not stored there, the system searches the UoM Conversion table. If it does not exist, the system searches the opposite in the same table and creates the formula
"1 : [the defined formula]
If the opposite does not exist, the system returns an error and continues with Conversion factor 1.
Note on UoM Groups
In Bill of Materials you can define the Quantity in Input Unit. This will be converted in Production UoM and this in Inventory UoM.
Problem: If the Production UoM is not the same as the Inventory UoM and the Input UoM is not Production UoM, the system cannot find an entry in the UoM Group. In this case, the system searches for the conversion in the UoM Conversion table to convert the quantity from Input Unit to production Unit.
Unit factor and UoM Tool tip
In the work order position, the system displays the unit in green which means that the unit factor is inside (see image below). Moving the mouse over this field, the system displays a tool tip with information on the factor and the UoM (see image below).
The system can calculate with 20 decimals rounded up to 6 decimals for display.
When you change the UoM, the system calculates the Quantity and the factor automatically (see image below).
The new Quantity is based on the current production unit.
NOTE: This is only possible if a Conversion factor was defined previously).
Example:
Conversion: 1 TPcs =1000 Pcs
Old Qty = 2000 Pcs
Change UoM to TPcs. The System display Quantity = 2 TPcs
If the Quantity in TPcs is changed, the system calculate the Production UoM and from this the Inventory UoM
If length/width/height, density or item code self is changed, the base quantity is always the quantity in Production UoM and the system always calculates the quantity in the Production UoM and Inventory UoM.
Share of the surcharge – used for the Precalculation and production.
The scrap factor at assemblies relates not the assembly, but only to its material requirement.
The scrap is calculated per lot size:
Example:
Assembly lot size 500, required 1000, scrap 1 in assembly equals to 1 per 500 = 2
There is a total requirement of 1002 if a material 1x per assembly is required
This value will be calculated in production and cannot be changed.
A palette per 100 pieces is required
Quantity of requirement corresponds 0.01 palette per piece. But at least one palette has always to be required and from 101 pieces even 2 palettes. The BOM position will be adjusted as following for this:
Quantity: 0,01
Rounding type: multiple of
Rounding Dec. 100
Example 2:
A half piece is required. because there is no half piece. It must always be rounded up to 0 decimal place because there is no half piece.
Thus a requirement of 0,8 will actually be rounded up to 1 piece.
The following setting occurs:
Rounding type: round up
Rounding Dec: 0
Note:
Negative statement of decimal places are not supported.
For backflushed material, the material is issued on receipt of this routing position. The MRP run and APS consider the start date of this operation when calculating the material requirement.
Phantom assembly group:
Routing-assignments work with restrictions for nested phantom assemblies: The routing assignment of the above located main assembly group always applies instead of the phantom assembly group assignment within a sub-phantom assembly group.
Master data:
Which routing is to be used can be defined in the BOM. The routing with the same ID will be used if none have been defined. A checking of the assignment is not possible because a routing can be assigned to multiple Bill of materials. The assignment will not be checked even at a change of a routing.
Production:
Assignment is always done at the routing of the current production position.
If a warehouse is specified, the material is issued from this warehouse by default when backflushing. Warehouse information is mandatory.
You can choose any warehouse defined for this item, and active on item-warehouse side and active on warehouse side.
It is allowed to select a warehouse, which is locked for issue transactions.
MRP checks the warehouse defined in the BoM Position.
Precalculation: It is possible to select locked warehouses.
If the material position is an order-related sub-assembly, the system creates a new work order position for this sub-assembly but does not take the warehouse from the Bill of materials position.
For the new work order position, the system uses the standard rules for warehouse definition. Seewarehouse rules.
Example:
Assembly A, default Warehouse 01
BoM Order-related Assembly B, default Warehouse = 01, Bill of Materials Warehouse 07
If you create a work order:
Work order Position 10: Assembly A = Warehouse 01
Bill of Material Position 10: Warehouse 07
Work order Position 20: Warehouse 01
Note: At "Production backflushing" you can specify an issue warehouse which has a higher priority.
A work order created from an Item, or Precalculation copies this field automatically for the BoM.
If there is not enough stock to pre-assign quantities from this, pre-defined bin location, Beas continues to pre-assign them from further bin locations based on the sorting rules.
Determines the measurements of the materials.
The requirement of the consumption unit can be indicated. The required quantity in warehouse unit can be defined in Quantity unit - Conversion
The measurement can be indicated in the conversion.
It is set automatically according to the settings if the default quantity has been reached. The completed BOM positions are no longer considered in the material requirement list and MRP.
This field is unnamed in the basic installation. The name of the field can be configured in Configuration Wizard > Master Data > Bill of Materials > View > Info Field.
