Repetitive Manufacturing,

 REM Profile - GI backflush during GR Processing

 Cost Accounting
 Planned Order Reduction
 Firming Logic
 Planned Orders when reversing
 Material Requirements - Aggregate requirement and Phantom assemblies
 Movement Types - GR/GI, Scrap and Waste for MTO and MTS
MFBF, Confirmation
Back flushing - Back flushing is nothing but automatic goods issue. System will
automatically posts the goods issue when you confirm the operations. You have no need to
make manual issue. It will reduce the effort
Backflush is used for material which are a must and having fixed relationship.
This can be configured in MRP2 Screen, Work centre, Routing and production order.

Importance of Production Scheduler Profile in work scheduling view -

We define Production Scheduler Profile in material master which is defined in OPKP under
configuration.
It defines once the order is created for this material, when to release,
Once release, schedule the order? Automatic goods receipt? availability check related parameters,
confirmation and batch management and
importantly the order type to be associated when planned order is converted into production order
Once the order type is associated, then scheduling parameters will come into picture for that order
for scheduling type etc.
