Your answer to this question is likely customizations… customizations that were once the best thing since sliced bread but now have become the bane of your existence.

There is something you can do about it! 

Crossroads RMC has many options for LX & BPCS when dealing with customizations:

You can move monthly periods to a different parent period. For example, if you have a monthly calendar, you can create quarter periods and move months to the quarters.

1. Select Financials > Global Ledger > Setup > Finance Enterprise Group > Maintenance.
2. Open the finance enterprise group.
3. Click the Calendar tab.
4. Open the calendar for which you want to move periods.
5. Click the Hierarchy tab.
6. Select the periods to move.
7. Select Actions > Move.
8. Select the new parent period under which you want to move the periods.
9. Click OK.

Note that the Bill of Material and Routing are revision controlled. When a structure is generated for the first time, a first revision is made with status New.

If the Approve Structures Automatically check box is selected in the Job Shop Master Data Parameter (tirou0500m000) session, the revision is created with status Approved.

If the structure is regenerated, the current revision status determines the result:

• If the status is New, this revision is overwritten
• If the status is Approved, a new revision is created
