  • Key Concepts: 
    Nested major assembly is a term used in the Production Engineering and Operations (PP-PEO) component of SAP. It refers to a type of assembly structure in which one major assembly is contained within another major assembly. This type of structure allows for the creation of complex assemblies with multiple levels of components. 
    
    How to use it: 
    In order to create a nested major assembly, the user must first create the outermost major assembly. This can be done by selecting the “Create Major Assembly” option from the PP-PEO menu. Once this is done, the user can then add components to the outermost major assembly. To add a nested major assembly, the user must select the “Create Nested Major Assembly” option from the PP-PEO menu. This will open a new window where the user can select components to add to the nested major assembly. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When creating a nested major assembly, it is important to ensure that all components are properly linked together. This can be done by selecting the “Link Components” option from the PP-PEO menu. This will allow the user to link components together in order to create a cohesive structure.
