Create or update a Technical Material Requisition (TMR) based on the related Material Requisition (MR). In the s50016 Technical Material Requisition screen, ensure the internal status of the TMR is Create/Change and the TMR is linked to an MR number. If the TMR is issued, then the system raises another revision of the TMR to make updates.
When you create or update a TMR using the Create/Update TMR functionality, the creation method for the TMR is MTO/Part list. If the TMR is issued, then a new revision is raised. Any working surplus and contingency settings set up for the project in the s40002 Working Surplus Contingency screen and the s22060 Engineering Material Control screen are applied to the TMR items.
Before you begin, ensure you create an MR filter. For more information, see Create an MR filter.
