If the change is only RR/RWK or RR/UAI or DS parts, then we will get only demand task.
If any part going OB, then we will get EO Reassessment & Inventory task along with demand.
To check the demand, need to open PCM2020 & PCM2028 for the particular ECR.

Then change the date to today’s date and click on View BOM.
Once the child parts generated, copy the PN part and Login to SAP with user ID and password and again
check the demand detail using “pegging” transition “zrmrppegging” in SAP.
Click on the tick mark (green colour) to execute the search.
Enter the part number in Material and Plant code as 1000 to 1020
Click on the clock symbol red highlighted below to run
If the demand exists for the part, it will show the demand details else it will be blank.

Stock/Inventory Analysis
Enter the part numbers in materials & Plant from 1000 to 2000
Click on Non-Zero stock line & Execute the search
If the Inventory is available, it will show plant-wise stock along with its storage location (SLoc).
Note: If inventory found in plant 1000/1020 with SLoc as 080/29X those are at engineering location, No
action for MFG PCA.
Other than these SLoc, if inventory is found in plant 1000/1020, MFG PCA need to notify to respective
action owner (Example: MRP Controller, Production Planner & Production Controller)
Action owner will take actions on OB parts inventory according to disposition of parts.
If OB Parts inventory is found in plant 1900, Notify to Materials Analyst to act on excess OB inventory as
per disposition.
If OB Parts inventory is found in plant 2000, check whether it is belonging to MFG or Spare in PCM 2028
under “Ver - OB_OS Inventory” Tab.
If OB Parts inventory belongs to spares, then No action for MFG PCA. Spares PCA will take action.
If OB Parts inventory belongs to MFG, to take action on excess OB inventory as per disposition.
Open PO’s
Open PO’s to check only for OB parts during the EO & Inventory task.
Open SAP with your login credentials

Below are the steps to follow for OB push out

You will receive auto-generated email
Forward that email to LAM CHANGE CONTROL & ECPM
Put Materials, Spares & CE in mail “cc”
Check for dependencies & dependent part are active or not
Check all child parts of X/MN parts are active or not via “z080”
If found any dependencies, then even for depend ECR, we need to push out eff. Date.
If demand is found for the elsewhere NHA’s & we need to update OB pushout date for NHA’s in current ECR as
well as in elsewhere NHA’s OB date
