This document showcases the feature and usage of Shop Floor Control (SFC) merge and split in SAP Digital Manufacturing for execution.
In this blog post, I would like to share detailed information on how you can use SFC merge & split.
Example is explained with below steps,
Order created & released in ECC with quantity more than one(1).
ECC – Production Order Display
Order header Material setting in DMC’s Manage Material app. Quantity Restriction: Only 1.0 and lot size: 1
Only 1.0: Limits the value in the Lot Size field to 1.0 for the order release and for the packing process in the POD. Typically used for materials you build individually.
SAP DM – Manage Material
Order released in DMC from Manage Order app.
SAP DM – Manage Order – Release Order
It will generate two SFC’s of quantity one, which can be viewed in Manage Order app.

To merge SFC’s, update header material setting in Manage Material app. Quantity Restriction : Whole Number and lot size: -1
Whole Number: Allows the value in the Lot Size field to be any whole number, such as 1, 10, 500 for the order release and for the packing process in the POD.
