The kitting process within SAP EWM (Extended Warehouse Management) entails the combination or assembly of components or parts to generate a final product.
- Initiation: The kitting process initiates upon the system’s receipt of a request for a particular product or kit assembly.
- Availability Check: The system verifies the presence of all required components or parts within the warehouse inventory.
- Picking: The system generates picking tasks to retrieve the reserved components from their respective storage locations within the warehouse.
- Kit Assembly: The picked components are transported to the assembly area or workstation, where they are combined or assembled to create the final kit or product.
- Shipping: The assembled and packed kit is prepared for shipping. Shipping documents, such as packing lists and delivery notes, are generated, and the kit is transferred to the outbound staging area for further transportation.
When we get the demand/order for the kit, then we start preparing/producing the kit. we do not prepare kits to store in inventory.
Required Master data/configuration for the Kitting (KIT to Order) process:
Material Master
a) KIT Header – Final material moved out of warehouse/plant
b) KIT Item – Component gets consumed to prepare the Final product.
Bill of Material –
Exploded with Header and component information.
Item category in ERP for KITS and its related determination setting: –
- Header product – KITH
- Item component – COMP
Activate BC sets if the Header and components type are not available in the system as default entry BC Sets:/SPE/KIT_TO_ORDER
Storage control setting: Having KTO as Kitting WorkCentre.
For Kitting the components will be assembled in the KITTING Work center which is assigned to the Kitting WorkCentre layout.
