C_TS422_2022 Exam Dumps : SAP Certified Application Associate - SAP S/4HANA Production Planning and Manufacturing

When you create a product master in SAP S/4HANA, you need to enter values for mandatory fields such as product number, product type, base unit of measure, and description. The product type determines the category of the product, such as material, service, or article. The base unit of measure defines the unit in which you manage the product in all business transactions. The selection screen for views and plants are optional fields that allow you to choose which views and plants you want to maintain for the product master. References: Creating Products, Understanding the Concept of Master Data

The control cycle is the master data object that governs the relationship between supply source and demand source in the Kanban process. The control cycle defines the following data for Kanban production:

• The number of Kanban containers and the quantity per container or per call item
• The basic data required for automatic Kanban calculation, if necessary
• The replenishment strategy, which determines how the supply source replenishes the demand source, such as in-house production, external procurement, stock transfer, or assembly
• The print control, which determines how the Kanban cards are printed, if necessary
• The delivery address, which determines where the Kanban containers are delivered, if necessary
• The process control, which determines the status sequence, the goods movement, the packing instruction, and the production call profile, if necessary1

The control cycle is created and maintained using the app Manage Kanban Control Cycles or the transaction PKMC. The control cycle is assigned to a material and a plant, and can be split into different segments for different supply sources or demand sources2.

The other options are not correct for the following reasons:

• Replenishment strategy (A): This is not a master data object, but a field in the control cycle that specifies the type of replenishment for the Kanban process. The replenishment strategy can be in-house production, external procurement, stock transfer, or assembly1.
• Production supply area (B): This is a master data object that represents a physical or logical area where materials are supplied for production. A production supply area can be assigned to a material, a work center, or a production line. A production supply area is not directly related to the Kanban process, but it can be used to group materials or work centers for planning or reporting purposes3.
• Rate routing (D): This is a master data object that defines the sequence of operations and the work centers for producing a material in repetitive manufacturing. A rate routing canbe assigned to a material and a production version. A rate routing is not directly related to the Kanban process, but it can be used to calculate the production rate and the lead time for in-house production.

You can select the following standard item categories inside a bill of material (BOM):

• Variable-size item: This item category is used for materials that have variable dimensions, such as pipes, wires, or fabrics. The system calculates the quantity of the variable-size item based on the formula and the dimensions entered in the BOM. You can also use the variable-size item to define a scrap percentage for the material.
• Non-stock item: This item category is used for materials that are not managed in inventory, such as consumables, services, or subcontracting items. The system does not create any reservations or stock movements for the non-stock item. You can use the non-stock item to trigger purchasing requisitions or purchase orders for the material. References: Bill of Material Item Category; Bills of Material in Production Planning
