| # Subcontract Operations (tisfc2210m000) Use this session to subcontract operations that were not planned to subcontract when the routing was defined. Select a range of operations that you want to subcontract, and assign the operations to a specific subcontracting work center. Related topics Operation subcontracting without material flow support Production orders - functional overview Planning production orders in SFC Cost components in Manufacturing Shared work centers Production Order The production order for which you want to subcontract some or all operations. Production Order The order status of the production order. Item The item produced by the production order. Order Quantity The order quantity to be produced. The estimates of materials and hours are based on this quantity. Operation The range of operations that you want to subcontract. ERP LN assigns the operations to the work center and the subcontractor that you specify and update their planned dates. Subcontracting Work Center The work center where the subcontracted operations are performed. The work center must be of the Subcontracting Work Center type, and must be linked to the selected buy-from business partner. Note A sub work center is a subdivision of a main work center, not a subcontracting work center. Subcontractor A business partner that is hired to perform certain services, such as the execution of a part of a project or production order. The services are delivered via a purchase order. The subcontractor is a buy-from business partner whom you want to carry out the selected operations. If the subcontractor is not active on the production order date, you get the following error message: Business partner %1$s not active on production order's effective date. Machine The machine on which the subcontracted operation(s) will be performed. If you enter a machine in this field, the subcontracted operation(s) will be performed on that machine. The Machine Occupation field in the Production Planning (tisfc0110m000) details session automatically gets the value 1. If you do not enter a machine in this field, no machine is used for the subcontracted operation(s). The Machine Occupation field in the Production Planning (tisfc0110m000) details session gets the value 0 (zero). The Machine field in the Production Planning (tisfc0110m000) details session is emptied. In this session you can enter a range of operations that you want to subcontract. However, an operation can already be a planned subcontracted operation if it is linked to a subcontracted work center in the Routing Operations (tirou1102m000) details session. Also a subcontracted machine can already be defined. The operations in the range that are already subcontracted will not have their machine(s) replaced by the machine entered in this field if the following is true: The work center of the subcontracted operation equals the work center that you enter in this session's Work Center field. If the work center of an already subcontracted operation differs from the work center that you enter in this session's Work Center field, the machine entered in this field will replace an already existing subcontracted machine. Subcontracting Rate Factor The value that is used to estimate the subcontracting costs by the Operation Rate method. In this method, the estimated subcontracting costs are calculated by multiplying the gross output quantity, the subcontracting rate factor and the subcontracting rate. If you use another calculation method, this field is not used. You can start the Subcontracting Rates (ticpr1160m000) session by clicking the button.

Related topics Overview of subcontracting Subassembly An intermediary product in a production process that is not stored or sold as an end product, but that is passed on to the next operation. For subcontracting purposes, a manufacturer can send a subassembly to a subcontractor to carry out work on the subassembly. This subassembly has its own item code defined in the Item Base Data. After work is finished, the subcontractor sends the subassembly back to the manufacturer. Also this reworked subassembly has its own item code defined in the Item Base Data.
