Set Up Formula to Consume Goods from Correct Line-Side Location

Question

You have a product that can be manufactured on two different production lines in the same warehouse.

You create resources and then create individual input locations for the resources.

You create two routes.

Each route uses different resources.

Materials are staged for consumption in different locations based on the resources being utilized for production.

You need to set up the formula to consume the goods from the correct line-side location.

To set up the formula to consume goods from the correct line-side location for a product that can be manufactured on two different production lines in the same warehouse, you need to consider the resources and routes being used for production, as well as the locations where materials are staged for consumption.

The correct answer is A. Select a warehouse and consumption operation for each line.

Here's a more detailed explanation:

  1. Create resources and input locations for the resources: First, you need to create resources for each production line and then create individual input locations for each resource. This will allow you to track the inventory and consumption of materials for each line separately.

  2. Create two routes: Next, you need to create two production routes, one for each production line. Each route should use the corresponding resource for that line.

  3. Stage materials for consumption: Materials should be staged for consumption in different locations based on the resources being utilized for production. For example, if Line 1 is using Resource A, materials should be staged in a location near Resource A, while if Line 2 is using Resource B, materials should be staged in a location near Resource B.

  4. Set up consumption operations: Now you need to set up consumption operations for each line. This will tell the system which line-side location to use for consumption of materials based on the production line being used.

  5. Select a warehouse and consumption operation for each line: To set up the formula to consume goods from the correct line-side location, you need to select a warehouse and consumption operation for each line. This will ensure that the correct line-side location is used for consumption of materials based on the production line being used.

Option A, "Select a warehouse and consumption operation for each line," is the correct answer because it specifically addresses the need to select a warehouse and consumption operation for each line, which is essential to ensuring that the correct line-side location is used for consumption of materials.

Option B, "Select resource consumption and the operation for each line," is not as specific as Option A and doesn't address the need to select a warehouse.

Option C, "Select the plan group and consumption operation for each line," is not relevant to the question, as there is no mention of plan groups in the scenario provided.

Option D, "Specify a site in the formula header," is also not relevant to the question and does not address the need to select a warehouse and consumption operation for each line.
