Item Does Not Display in MSW
Item does not display on a repetitive production line in the MSW.
Probable Cause
An item does not display in the MSW when:
• It does not have a routing/BOM defined.
• It does not have active supply/demand in the horizon you are viewing.
When you add an item to the production line, the system displays warnings when the routing or BOM does not exist for the item. Also, the system displays a warning when the item is not set as a repetitive manufactured item in item planning records.
Solution
In Item Planning Maintenance (1.4.7) or Item Data Maintenance (1.4.1), set the Purchase/Manufacturer code for the item to L.
Note: If the message displays because you are scheduling discrete orders on a production line or working with items that may only be manufactured discretely, you can overlook the warning and continue processing.
Ensure that a routing exists in Routing Maintenance (14.13.1) and that a product structure (BOM) exists in Product Structure Code Maintenance (13.1).
