Component Scrap 

Use

You use this function to plan the scrap of a component that may break during production of an assembly.

Prerequisites

You have entered values for calculating component scrap in the material master or the BOM:

  • in the BOM on the Item Detail Screen: General Data (data block for quantity data). This component scrap is only relevant for the individual BOM.
  • in the material master (view MRP 4) in the Component scrap field. This component scrap is relevant for all BOMs.

The component scrap quantity maintained for a material component in the BOM has the higher priority.

Features

  • Component scrap increases the dependent requirements quantity of the component.
  • If a scrap quantity was planned for a higher-level assembly, assembly scrap and component scrap are added to the component level.

Example

Estimate yield

200

Assembly scrap

10%

Component scrap

10%

This results in a scrap quantity of

42 pieces

and a required quantity of

242 pieces
