1:: Can we create Production order without bom and routing?yes we can create a production order without BOM & routing. Change the Config inOPL8 ( order type dependent parameters)as routing optional. But it may ask for a sales order when we try to create order using CO01.

3:: If there are some errors in goods movements, and less stock of material consumed, how can i solve that problem in SAP?According to me COGI is basically a SAP standardised system which will tell youthat what is the error in some cases itcan rectify it too. But if the entry is done manually by MB1A, MB1B, MB1C you have to bring back or cancell the movement or move thestock to desired material and then refresh COGI.
