For Local Receive, you need to remember the following:

  • If the current Material Step exists in the new Facility, the Flow Path will not change.
  • If the current Material Step does not exist in the new Facility and there is only one next Step for the current Material Flow Path that exists in the new Facility, this Step is set as the new Step.
  • If the current Material Step does not exist in the new Facility and there is no next Step that exists in the new Facility, but the default start Flow Path for the Product exists in the new Facility, this Flow Path will be the new one.
  • If none of these conditions apply, the Flow Path will be empty.

Step 2: Sub-Materials#

  1. Verify the Sub-Material information.
  2. Specify (or validate) the new Product in which the Sub-Materials will be created in the new Facility.
  3. Optionally, enter a comment.
  4. Select Receive to complete the operation.
