  • Key Concepts: 
    Alternative sequence is a feature in SAP SCM-Warehousing and Manufacturing Execution (SRD-SCM-WME) that allows users to define multiple sequences for a single material. This allows users to select the most efficient sequence for a given situation, such as when different materials are available or when different production processes are required. 
    
    How to use it: 
    To use alternative sequence, users must first define the different sequences for a given material. This can be done in the material master data, where users can specify the sequence number, sequence type, and sequence description. Once the sequences have been defined, users can select the most appropriate sequence for a given situation. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When defining alternative sequences, it is important to consider the different materials and production processes that may be required. This will ensure that the most efficient sequence is selected for each situation. Additionally, it is important to keep track of which sequences have been used in order to ensure that the same sequence is not used multiple times.
