Production Planning and Control: Configuration
Guide
1 Purpose
This configuration guide provides the information you need to set up the configuration of this building
block manually.
If you do not want to configure manually and prefer an automated installation process using the SAP
Best Practices Installation Assistant and other tools, refer to the SAP Best Practices Quick Guide.
The technical objects associated to each configuration covered in this document, can be found on the
Global Master List spreadsheet, matching according to the title of the activity.
2 Preparation
2.1 Prerequisites
Before you start installing this scenario, you must install prerequisite building blocks. For more
information, see the Building Block Prerequisites Matrix for SAP Best Practices Baseline Package
3 Configuration/Installation
4 Basic Data
.4.1 Defining BOM Usages
Use
In this step, you define the BOM usages. When you define a BOM usage, you define the configuration
of the item status. The item status is made up of a number of indicators in the BOM item (for example,
relevant to production, relevant to engineering/design, and so on). The item status controls how the
BOM item is processed in related application areas.
Procedure
1. Access the activity using one of the following navigation options:
IMG Menu Production Basic Data Bill of Material General Data
BOM Usage Define BOM Usages
Menú IMG Producción → Datos básicos → Lista de materiales → Datos

In this step you define wage groups for operations and work centers. By assigning an operation or a
work center to a wage group you can evaluate the work to be performed in the operation from a job
evaluation point of view (for instance suitable for unskilled labor or requiring special training). When
you confirm the operation, you enter the wage group that was actually used.

key. You can print out setup type with shop floor papers. In sequencing, the optimum
sequences for setup are determined with the setup type key.
• Setup group category: The setup group category classifies the setup groups. Setup
group categories are plant-dependent.
