In SAP S/4HANA process manufacturing (using process orders, transaction COR1), managing production flow for liquid chemicals in physically connected tanks requires:
* Resource selection(B): In the master recipe (C201) or process order (COR2), you can define resource selection conditions (e.g., via classification in the resource, CRC1, Basic Data tab). This ensures only suitable tanks (e.g., based on attributes like material compatibility or capacity) are selected for operations, restricting production to physically appropriate resources.
* Resource network(D): A resource network (Customizing, Production > Process Order > Master Data > Define Resource Networks) defines the physical connections between resources (e.g., tanks, pipes) in a plant. It specifies valid flow paths (e.g., Tank A to Tank B), ensuring process orders (COR1) schedule operations only on connected tanks, enforced during scheduling or dispatching.
Resource hierarchy(A) (CR21) aggregates capacities for planning, not physical connections.Resource matrix (C) isn't a standard SAP term-it might refer to custom setups, but it's not a defined feature for tank connectivity. This is per SAP's process manufacturing controls.
