Tell me about the subcontracting cycle...

Answer / desikan

Sub-contract activity starts with creation of component
level BOM. Need to identify what is the finished material
for which the component(s) are assigned. While creation of
PO with item category "L" for the finished material, system
picks the components. Goods can be transferred thro' MB1B
transaction with 541 movement to sub-contractor. System
proposes all the components & the corresponding qty while
transferring. After the posting, the stock will be shown
under vendor. While creation of GR for the finished
component (i.e. 101 movement), system also creates movement
543 for the components available with sub-contractor and
consumes the vendor stock.
