How to: Create New Co-Product/By-Product Processes

A careful setup of the co-product/by-product process master data is mandatory for you to be able to work correctly with the system later.

  • In the Search box, enter Co-Product/By-Product Processes, and then choose the related link.
  • 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, and 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 for the whole co-product/by-product process. You 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.

  • In the No. field, enter the appropriate co-product/by-product process number which identifies the BOM uniquely. Any combination of numbers and letters can be used.
  • In the Description field, enter a description for the co-product/by-product process.
  • On the Versions FastTab, choose Actions and then choose New Version. The Co-Product Process Version window appears.

The Co-Product Process Version window contains the co-product/by-product process lines on which 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 type necessary text.

  • Fill in the fields.
  • When you are done, change the Status field to Certified.
