This document provides an overview of the netting process used to generate custom bills of materials (BOMs) and production routings for unique locomotives designed for specific sales orders at Electro-Motive Diesel. The netting transaction (ZNET) supports the user interface, performs netting functions, and maintains custom materials, BOMs, and routings. It executes the netting process station by station to generate final netted BOMs and production routings based on the configured order BOM. The document includes screenshots illustrating the netting transaction screens, logs, and generated BOMs and routings for a sample locomotive order.

1. Netting Example in D01 client 110 October 10 th 2006 Prepared by Ludmila Monin

4. Sales order S068880 for locomotive model 92140

5. Order BOM configured and generated for: order S068880 line item 10 in delivering plant 1001 (usage 3).

6. ZNET transaction initial entry screen.

7. Typical locomotive netting screen. Majority of stations on this order have already been final netted and routed. Station 24 has been netted in memory: i.e. no new materials saved, no BOMs saved.

8. BOM netting process log, every netting step is logged.

9. Netting detailed trace helps in determining any issues in case of error result.

10. Material Master maintenance log for Station 24.

11. Illustrates the ability to create and re-create Planned BOMs.

12. When Production BOMs (Final) are created – the Planned BOMs (if any) are deleted.

13. Routing netting process log, every netting step is logged. There are two indicators in the left portion of the screen: (N) Netting and (C) Creating. In this example, routing was netted in memory only.

14. Illustrates error handling while attempting to create netting routing.
