Own product
The structure of an own product sets the raw materials and materials needed to make a product of the company's own manufacture. If the product has a structure, an issue slip with the required quantities is generated automatically in the raw materials department.
A structure only needs to be entered for products whose manufacture will be repeated. For a product made once, entering the issue slip directly is simpler.

Meaning of the data
The data common to every type is described on Structures. For an own product the following also applies:

If the product has no structure entered, the raw materials issue slip is not created automatically. In that case an issue slip of type RNGP is entered by hand in the raw materials department and linked to the job card. The full procedure is described on Manufacturing.
