What are some benefits of planning with planned independent requirements for finished materials? Note: There are 2 correct answers to this question.
Correct Answer: A,B
Question 72
When you create a sales order When can consumption of planned independent requirements take place for planning strategy 40 (Planning with final assembly?
Correct Answer: C
Planning strategy 40 (Planning with final assembly) is a make-to-stock strategy that uses planned independent requirements to trigger the procurement and production of the necessary assemblies and components before receipt of the sales orders. As soon as the sales order is received, it consumes the planned independent requirements and adjusts the master plan to suit the current requirements situation. This means that the important feature of this planning strategy is that you can react quickly to customers' requirements. The consumption of planned independent requirements can take place when you create a sales order, as well as when you change or delete a sales order.

Question 73
How can you set up a material as a phantom assembly? Note: There are 2 correct answers to this question.
Correct Answer: A,D
Aphantom assemblyin SAP S/4HANA is a virtual component that is not physically stocked-its components are directly consumed in the higher-level assembly. To set it up: * Select a special procurement type inside the material master(A): In the material master (MRP 2 view, field: Special Procurement), set the value to "50" (Phantom Assembly). Thistells MRP and production to bypass stocking the phantom material and explode its BOM directly into the next level (e.g., in CO01 or MD02). * Define the special procurement type inside the material BOM (bill of material)(D): In the BOM (CS02), for the phantom component, set the "Special Procurement" field (Item Detail screen) to "50." This overrides the material master setting for that specific BOM usage, ensuring the phantom behavior applies only in that context. Use a special item category(B) like "L" (Stock Item) or "N" (Non-Stock) in the BOM (CS01, Item Category) defines component handling but does not designate a phantom-phantom status comes from procurement type.Select a special MRP type(C) (MRP 1 view) controls planning (e.g., "PD" for MRP), not phantom behavior. This is per SAP's phantom assembly configuration.
Question 74
You need to model goods receipt processing time in detailed scheduling. Which modeling options do you have? Note: There are 3 correct answers to this question.
Correct Answer: B,C,E
You can model goods receipt processing time in detailed scheduling by using one or more of the following options: Model a handling resource in the location master: A handling resource is a special type of resource that represents the capacity required for goods movements within a location, such as loading, unloading, or staging. You can assign a handling resource to a location and define its availability and utilization. You can also specify the handling time per unit of material for each handling resource. The system will then calculate the goods receipt processing time based on the handling time and the quantity of the material. Model a transportation lane and carrier selection in the location master: A transportation lane is a master data object that defines the relationship between two locations in terms of transportation modes, means of transport, transit times, and costs. You can assign a transportation lane to a location and define the transportation mode, such as truck, rail, or air. You can also specify the carrier selection, which is a rule that determines the preferred carrier for each transportation mode. The system will then calculate the goods receipt processing time based on the transit time and the carrier selection. Model a goods receipt time in the material master: A goods receipt time is a parameter that defines the time required to post the goods receipt for a material after it arrives at the location. You can specify the goods receipt time in the material master record for each material and location combination. The system will then add the goods receipt time to the goods receipt processing time. You cannot model goods receipt processing time in detailed scheduling by using the following options: Model a separate resource in the production data structure: A resource is a master data object that represents the capacity required for production activities, such as machines, labor, or tools. You can assign a resource to a production data structure, such as a bill of material, a routing, or a production version. However, a resource cannot be used to model goods receipt processing time, as it is not related to goods movements. Model a separate inbound resource in the location master: An inbound resource is a parameter that defines the maximum number of inbound deliveries that can be processed at a location at the same time. You can specify the inbound resource in the location master record for each location. However, an inbound resource cannot be used to model goods receipt processing time, as it is only a constraint for the number of deliveries, not the duration of the processing.
Question 75
How can a material availability check be triggered automatically for a production order? Note: There are 2 correct answers to this question.
Correct Answer: C,D
In SAP S/4HANA, a material availability check ensures components are available before production proceeds. This check can be triggered automatically: * By order release(C): When a production order is released (transaction CO02 or mass release via CO05N), the system can perform an availability check based on settings in the order type-dependent parameters (Customizing: Production > Shop Floor Control > Define Order Types). The "Availability Check" field (e.g., "2 - Check at Release") triggers this automatically, ensuring materials are reserved or shortages are flagged. * By mass processing(D): Using transaction COHV (Mass Processing of Production Orders), planners can execute availability checks for multiple orders simultaneously. The function "Check Material Availability" can be scheduled or run manually, automating the process across orders. By capacity planning(A) focuses on work center capacity, not material availability.By order confirmation(B) may trigger a check for remaining quantities, but it's not a standard automatic trigger point-it's more relevant for backflushing or goods issue. This is outlined in SAP's production order management documentation.
