how do you adjust the multi level structure in order to create less shop orders?
Multi level structure
Go to the planning data tab for the inventory part on the sub-assemblies you don’t want to build at that level. Change the Planning Method to P for Phantom, this will bypass that level and effectively flatten the BOM. You can do this at any or all levels except the top one obviously. The routings are only required at the level you build.

Yes, this solution worked for many of our customers. We have been dealing with such solutions for years.

We followed this approach but now have an issue where a customer order line has been entered against one of the sub-assemblies we changed to planning method P. MRP is not recognising the demand to generate a shop order proposal. Any suggestions on how we get around this?
