How to create new Co-Product/By-Product processes

A careful setup of the co-product/by-product process master data is required to work correctly with the system.

Steps

  1. In the search box, enter Co-Product/By-Product Processes, and then choose the related link.

  2. On the Home tab, in the New group, choose New to open an empty co-product process card.

    The top part of the co-product process card is the co-product/by-product process header. The bottom part of the card contains the co-product/by-product process versions.

    The data entered on the co-product/by-product process header applies to the whole co-product/by-product process. Enter the co-product/by-product process's production components on the co-product/by-product process version. Every co-product/by-product process must have a minimum of one version.

  3. In the No. field, enter the appropriate co-product/by-product process number, which identifies the BOM uniquely. You can use any combination of numbers and letters.

  4. In the Description field, enter a description for the co-product/by-product process.

  5. On the Versions FastTab, choose Actions and then choose New Version. The Co-Product Process Version page appears.

    The Co-Product Process Version page contains the co-product/by-product process lines where you enter the data for the items to be processed and other production BOMs. You can also use co-product/by-product process lines to enter necessary text.

  6. Fill in the fields.

  7. When you are done, change the Status field to Certified.
