Hello,

When configuring a CTO with by-products in IFS Cloud, we need an interim order to be created. However, when attempting to create the interim order, I receive the following message:

“No buildable routing revision/alternative exists for part xxxx at Site on the date 2-SEPT-25.”

I checked part xxxx and confirmed that the part type is set to "by-product." It does not contain a routing and/or a product structure.

What could be causing this error?

Kind regards,
Willem

Maintain Interim Orders:
Explanation - Use this activity to create a new interim order for a specified part. Interim orders are created when evaluating an interim demand head record. A new interim order is created each time a component is added to the top-level interim order.

For outside work center operations, you can either select the Outside Operation Backflush type or the Outside Operation Supply type. If an outside operation item has not been entered for the outside operation, a message will appear. However, you have the option of creating a new outside operation item.

The interim order can also be used to create a DOP order. When this is done, the DOP gets its structure from the interim order.

Prerequisites: 
 • IFS/Manufacturing Standards structures and routings should be defined for the part.
• If configured parts are to be used, IFS/Configuration Characteristics and IFS/Configuration Back Office must have been installed and associated configuration characteristics and back-office configuration rules defined.
• An interim demand head must be created.


So even though these are by-products, will they also require a routing?

Nowhere in the process (from intake to delivery) is a routing needed for a by-product. I only encounter this issue when creating an interim order.
