Add material to BOM

Dear SAP expert,
We have a new material which has to be added to all Existing Products' BOM.
I tried CS20 since there's a menu to add material in mass.
My problem is,
in CS20 we have to enter the item number.
My new material will be added to the last item of BOM,
But the existing BOMs have different number of item.
ex: Product A has 6 item in BOM, product B has 10 item in BOM, etc.
Anyone has a solution for my problem,
We have a lot of BOM to change,
regards,
Hachi

If you want it to be last for sure, why don't give it a number like 999? Or 777, so you will be able to add more later?

Alternative material in BOM

Dear SAP Friends,
I have a BOM with 1 material & want to add 1 alternative material if previous one is not available in stock.
pl tell how to create alternative material in BOM without creating alternative BOM.
Regards,
Chandra.

Hi chandra
Alternative items can be added to the BOM without alternate BOM.
In change mode of BOM CS 02 go to BOM item details There you can see alternative items with item group
There you can define you items with Priority,usage probability , Strategy,
Alternate item will be selected during MRP run as per your usage probability

Scrap Material In BOM

Dear All,
I want add a material as scrap in the BOM....
what should be the material type used for scrap material......???
which Item category should be used in the BOM...
Please Suggest
Regards,
Pawan Shetty

Dear Pawan,
what is the scrap you are trying to add in the BOM?In case if you want the scrap % that is to be considered for the
components at the time of planning means,then you can differentiate and mention as component scrap or operation scrap in the
BOM--->item details.
If it's also one of the output material along with the header material means,then you can create a separate material code for the
one which you mean as scrap and maintain the same with item category as L and in terms of negative quantity in the BOM of
header material(main product).
Check and revert.

if material B is depleted then used material C
if A and B have stock used A(higher priority)
I tried to used follow up material in MRP4 and BOM but it can not be used for multi level like this case.
Is there any solution for this?
Best regards,
Fred

Hi anyway I tested the BOM master data like this
F/G 1 Master Box
|--- A 10 PCS Alt Group Z1 Priority 1 Usage 100% Strategy 2 (100% Check)
|--- B 10 PCS Alt Group Z1 Priority 2 Usage 100% Strategy 2 (100% Check)
|--- C 10 PCS Alt Group Z1 Priority 3 Usage 100% Strategy 2 (100% Check)
Stock A is depleted
Stock B enough
stock C enough
Expected result F/G only used B 10 PCS
Actual result is
F/G 1 Master Box
|-- A 10 PCS
|-- B 10 PCS
|-- C 10 PCS
Do ou have ides how should the percentage in BOm is maintain?

MRP run for header material with bom usage-3

Dear All,
We have header material with bom usage-3.We maintain the stock at child components only ,not at header
I have created the planned independent requirement for header material.I have created a sales order but sales order is not shown in md04.
What can be the further setting I am missing for mrp run of above scenario.
with regards,
pradeep

Dear ,
Couple of checks points for you :
1.Check the material master Sales Org Veie-Item Categoery .As you have mentioned Item Categoery -TAQ which is not relevent for requirement planning throgh schedule line category -CT ( CT means there will not be any inventory or good movement and requirement will not be passed for MRP ) .Only CP -line item categoery does requirement passing through MRP and it will show u in MD04. So the summery is if you want to generate an MTO order for the same FG material , you should matian the Sales Line item categoery as MTO in sales Org View and it will pop up in VA01 whiel logging Sales Order .
Generally , TAQ item categoery are used in Project Billing or Delivery .ok and they will not be having any availabilit check so it KP ( no check ) .
But for MTO order , you should have availablty chek 02/01 in MRP3 view and also MTO Sales Item categoery .
Based on the above information logg an sales order , release credit chek in VKM3, SAVE and check in MD04.
Create PIR in MD61 and Run MRP on the both cases .I have tested its working .but noit with TAQ item categoery ok
2.Why do you need to create Sales Order for dependent Item-Y because it will be in X-BOM item ? Make sure that Y- should have Sales Item categoery in material master -MM02-Sales Org View as NORM item .If you really want to create sale sorder for this item , it should TAN or NORM .
3.Other PIR detail is fine .
Try and revert back

Q4_How to manage software material and BOM in SAP_High-tech Industry PLM Implementation Issues

Hello,
We are implementing SAP PLM for a high-tech company which designs and manufactures mobile phones (ODM). Since we are new in PLM consulting and we are facing with some implementation difficulties, we are looking for some solutions here.
Question 4: How to manage software material and BOM in SAP?
Currently, software are not managed as material in the BOM. How to manage software material in PLM, can anyone help us with some suggestions.
Question 5: PADS integration with PLM.
Currently, customer is using Pro/E and PADS to design their product. SAP has already provided standard interface for Pro/E integration. But for PADS, there is no such interface. Because of the specialization of electrical components managed in PADS, different from structural parts in Pro/E, how to transfer them between PLM system and manage them in the PLM system has become an difficulty. We will appreciate a lot if anyone can share us with some successful solutions.

Hi,
software, typically a released version of software, is typically managed as a normal material master, and a related document with the code as a package (e.g. ZIP), if really needed.
Software in development is managed typically with a dedicated Software Configuration Management tool like Rational ClearCase, Subversion, MKS Integrity, ....

How to add Material photo in SAP

Hi folks,
    Does anybody know how to add material photo to material No?
     As now, when our old spare parts are bad, maintanance user have to find a new one to replace, so they need to provide the material No to warehouse user or purchase dept.
    But now as there are a lot of spare parts in SAP, iIt's difficult for them to appoint SAP material No from layout, so we want to add photo to material No.
Great thanks!

When viewing material, from main menu select System > Services for Object.
You may get a choose object type option, if you do, choose a std way to work e.g. always use Object = Material.
You'll then get a mini free floating toolbar. Select the far left Icon and Create an attachment. Navigate to your picture and upload.
To view the picture, select the Icon second left (this is greyed out if there are no attachments).
You can attach any number of pictures or Word documents etc.

PR( purchase requ) for Alternative material in BOM

Hi PP expert,
I am using alternative material in BOM. As for example my Header BOM material is u2018Yu2019 and his alternative components are X1 and X2
I have done setting in BOM
For -
X1,------
Priority ---1
Strategy - 2 ,100%
Usage prob     100
For -
X2----
Priority -
2
Strategy - -
2 ,100%
Usage prob    -
0
My client want when run the MRP , PR should be generate of material u201CX2u201D ,because there is no X2 stock and Material u201CX1u201D have more stock and want to consume X1 material 1st then X2.
X1 has been blocked for procurement.
Kindly suggest me how will generate PR of X2 when the run MRP. X2 is alternative material..
Regards,
Aqueel

Hi Aqueel!
      As I know, standard SAP cannot solve your problem. Howerver, you can try with these way:
          1/ Try to estimate how long your company will consump all X1(Ex 3 days). Use Alternative BOM 1 for X1, Alternative BOM 2 for X2. And allocate Alt 1 to Production version 1 with valid to 8/10/2010, Alt 2 to production 2 valid from 9/10/2010.
          2/ Change:
          For -
X1,------
          Priority ---2
          Strategy - 2 ,100%
          Usage prob 0
          For -
X2----
          Priority -
1
          Strategy - -
2 ,100%
          Usage prob -
100
And Run MRP, system will take X2 into accout. If you want to savage X1. Need to calculate it and manually change in comonent list of Production order (Now, X2 will consider) with X1 until X1 stock finish.
Hope it can solve you problem(not perfect).

How to add Material type(MTART) field on Selection screen of MB5B transaction code.

Hi All,
    Please let me know how to add material type field on selection screen of MB5B transaction
For that i made copy ZMB5B_COPY of original report RM07MLBD.
Thanks in adv .
Samadhan

Hi,
Once you copied the standard report to Z report, you can MTART in selection screen like below.
and in order to inlcude the same in programming logic, we have three option.
1) Check all related select queries, and include MTART in SELECT query using inner join with MARA.
2) In START-OF-SELECTION event fill MATNR as shown below.
3) If user entered any value in MTART, then before displaying the report just check material type of each material in the final internal table(which is used to display report) delete enteries from internal table accordingly.
START-OF-SELECTION.
IF MTART[] IS NOT INITIAL AND MATNR[] IS INITIAL.
    SELECT MATNR FROM MARA INTO MATNR-LOW WHERE MTART IN MTART.
      MATNR-OPTION = 'EQ'.
      MATNR-SIGN = 'I'.
      APPEND MATNR.
      CLEAR MATNR.
    ENDSELECT.
ENDIF.
The above option has one limitation: The selection screen variables has some restriction, please read the below thread.
Facing problem in select statement dump DBIF_RSQL_INVALID_RSQL CX_SY_OPEN_S
Getting Dump in the select query has more than 2000 entries
Hope this will work for you .

Posting a material with BOM together?

Dear SAPIENTS
When I am doing MIGO Posting for a material and this material has BOM with some quantity then I want BOM component should also be posted together with that material.
Regards,
Kaushal Rai

hi,
Co- product is cost relevant (cost relevancy indicator is ticked)..
If you look at a petro chemical refining industry their main input material will be "Crude oil" during refining they get "Petrol", "Diesel", "Kerosene", "Naptha" & "Water" etc...
So the whole of the production cost should not go to "Petrol" alone, as Diesel, Kerosene and "Naptha" are also sellable. Water is not sold out, but is being used internal for the operation.
In this scenario "Petrol". "Diesel", "Kerosene" and "Naptha" are defined as co-products in the material master. And the cost which needs to be distributed among them are in the ratio 30:30:20:20, so in the joint production details we select the apportionment structure, and here we define the equivalence number by entering the materials and numbers as required by us as 30:30:20:20.
Now BOM is defined for the main product "Petrol" and Diesel", "Kerosene", "Naptha" and Water are defined in -ve quantity. Here the definition of water goes as "BiProduct". Crude oil is defined as component in +ve quantity. Now during order costing/product costing/settlement considers the entire cost of production based on the crude oil cost and infrastructure cost and it splits into the ratio defined in the equivalence number.
