For Co-Products do the following settings.

1. Select Co-Product indicator in MRP2 view for header material
as well as for co-product materials.

2. Define the co-products as BOM components.

3. Give negative quantity in the BOM for co-products
Also select co-product indicator by clicking on BOM item details
and in the Basic Data Tab.

4. To calculate the production cost of co-products give equivalence

numbers in MRP2 view by clicking Joint Production push button
or you can give the same in the settlement rule in the
Production order by clicking Header menu - Settlement rule.
5. You will get the GR qty for co-products while doing MB31, 101

For By Products
1. Do not set the co-product indicator anywhere.
2. Define the By-Products as BOM components and give negative qty.

If the co-product indicator is set at the material master level in MRP2 view then this material will be
generally recieved using 101 movement and if some component is entered in negative quantity at BOM
level,then this will be considered as a by-product and will be recieved using 531 movement.

Long Term Planning

To generate the reports for the list of material required for LTP is by using MS70 and then use MCEC.

Work Schedule view : is required for semi-finished and finished products because all
the details are mentioned in MRP views and they are also available for production for
scheduler and production scheduler profile in this view, if not maintained conversion of
planned order to production will not be possible.
