BOM Alternative Check on CS01 screen

Dear All,
Right now i need to implement a user exit for the BOM alternative in CS01 screen. For a particular BOM Usage we should not allow the user to create alternative other than '1'. So before getting the automatic alternative i need to implement the user exit/Badi for the checking on the alternative.
thanks,
rajesh.

Hi,
There is a standard customzing for alternative BOM in CS01...
SAP Customizing Implementation Guide --> Production --> Basic Data --> Bill of Material --> Control Data for Bills of Material --> Define Modification Parameters. If you tick the " Multiple BOM inactive" then nobody should be able to create other alternatives then 1.

Routing link to BOM alternative

Hi all,
In our current SAP solution (SAP R/2) each routing alternative stores a link to an associated Bill of Material alternative. We have noticed that in mySAP ERP the routing alternatives can store BOM alternatives in the Component Allocation tab, but if you look at the header table for routing PLKO there is a field for associated BOM alternative (STLAL). If we select a BOM alternative this field is still not populated.
Does anyone know where this link is stored? Does the new system assume that production versions are created to store this combination of Routing and BOM? We would appreciate the insight. Thanks!
Sincerely,
Justin

Hi Justin,
Suppose you have two BOMs ,alternative 1 & 2. T.code cs01
To change T.code cs02.
A routing is created for the header material. T.code ca01.
To change T.code ca02.
In the routing, if you click the component allocation tab, you can see both the alt BOMs. From here you can select the BOM you want & then save. All the material will be allocated to the first operation by default.
Reg. Prod version:
You can create eg version 1 Routing + Alt BOM1
version 2 Routing + Alt Bom2.
In the material master, mrp view 4 check the options Bom selection , here if you give as selection only by prod version, during prodn order creation, the system will inform that there are two prodn versions & which one to select. This selection of pron version can be made manual or automatic. Given in T.code opl8

The BOM alternative 1,2

Hi,
We have created one BOM (alternative 1) with date (valid from10.01.2008) and 2 Months later we kept the same BOM and created (alternative 2) with date (valid from 10.03.2008). We will always (re)create the same BOM with new alternative every 2 Months.
Now we want to display the BOM (from the last valid from date) only when we give a date and not a alternative number (because in one year we will not remenber the alternative number.)
How can I customize the System so that it shows the right BOM through the date (valid from or the last valid from date). for exp. if I give 10.03.2008>Display only BOM(alternativ 2) and 17.03.2008>Display only BOM(alternativ 2) because it is the last valid from date
Thanks

Dear Dede,
Kindly read this and revert back what more you need.
1.When you create a BOM for a material (First Alternative) as on today using an ECN,then in the header of the BOM,the valid from
date will be 28.03.2008 & valid To Date will be 31.12.9999.
2.For its BOM components the valid from date will be 28.03.2008 & valid To Date will be 31.12.9999.
3.If create a Change that's valid from tomorrow(29.03.2008),and using this if i'm changing the First Alternative BOM's components say
i'm deleting one component and saving the datas.
4.If i go in display mode of the BOM removing the valid from & To date in the input screen,then for the deleted item or component,the
valid from date will be 28.03.2008 & valid to date will be 29.03.2008.But in the header of the BOm,there wont be any change,the valid
from date will be 28.03.2008 & valid to date will be 31.12.9999.
5.Now if I decide to delete the entire BOM(alternative 01) on 05.04.2008,then i create an ECN that's valid from 05.04.2008,and using
this,I go in Change mode and then from the top menu,BOm Material --->Delete,and save.
6.Now go in display mode of the BOM and check in the header of the BOM,there now you can see the valid from date will be
28.03.2008 & valid to date will be 05.04.2008.
So this valid to date of the BOM header will be changed,only if the entire BOM is deleted.
I hope the above explanation will clear all your doubts.
Reward points if satisfied with the answer and close this thread.

Error for open process order when BOM alternative is not found

Dear colleagues,
When I open process order. BOM alternative is selected according to the production version. But when BOM alternative is not found system gives only information message and I can open process order, I want to prevent open process order when there is no BOM alternative according to the production version. Because the Bom can be deleted after creation production version.
Thanks for your helping,

Hi,
U need to use an enhancement at the creation of order to check the active status of the bom and restricting the order creation when BOM status is inactive.
see whether following enhancement is useful for your scenario:
PPCO0006 Enhancement & EXIT_SAPLCOZF_003
Please confirm.

Bom alternative item group

Hello Experts,
I have one issue in BOM alternative item group I have made the settings as below.
Material 1     AltItemGroup         01
                     Priority                                  1
                     Strategy             2 100% check
                   Usage prob.         100
Material 2     AltItemGroup                      01
                      Priority                                  2
                      Strategy             2 100% check
                      Usage prob.         100
For Material 1 required bill of material quantity is 65 MT
For Material 2 required bill of material quantity is 65 MT
Now I am creating the process order for quantity 1000 MT. When the material availability check done it proposing as below in process order.
Material 1 = 65 MT    (Available Stock 807.109 MT)
Material 2 = 0 MT      (Available Stock 5.850 MT)
And again Material 2 = 32.5 MT
My question is as per above settings and stock situation of the material it should propose only Material 1 = 65 MT. But here system is also proposing Material 2 = 32.5 MT. Can any one tell what I am doing wrong?
Any settings are missing or what will be output for the above settings.
Please explain in detail.
Thanks in Advance
Regards,
Ganesh

Hi Ganesh,
Pl. make the following settings:
Material 1 AltItemGroup 01
Priority 1
Strategy 2 100% check
Usage prob. 100
Material 2 AltItemGroup 01
Priority 2
Strategy 2 100% check
Usage prob. 0
The strategy 2 will automatically handle the situation when Material 1 is not available and 2 is available.
Pl. test & revert. It will work as per your requirements

Schedule lines in Availability Check Delivery Proposal screen

Hi,
This is in continuation to an earlier thread that I had created about Sales Orders not getting CIFfed across to APO. I have a situation in a different system where this is being configured for data transfer. The problem here is not about CIF. All issues pertaining to CIF were addressed in the earlier thread.
This question is primarily about schedule lines of the sales order not opening up for confirmation in 'APO Availability Check: Delivery Proposal' screen as in this link: https://docs.google.com/leaf?id=0B78qjSKXsqbeNDFjMzlkM2MtMDNlOS00ODFmLWJmYjktYmU0ZDU5Zjk0ZDlh&sort=name&layout=list&num=50&authkey=CO2E0ZYN
It is perhaps some config that is changed or missing that is causing this problem.
Kind regards,
Srikanth

Srikanth,
This is what the screen looks like when the ATP you have configured cannot confirm anything. The only button available to you is to proceed without confirming the order.
An example of the types of reasons would be no allocation available, no stock available, no supply elements available, too many existing requirements, etc etc. Improper or incomplete APO GATP configuration could unfortunately also be the culprit.
You have two icons at the top, check instructions and Allocation. Click on these buttons, and they may give you clues as to what is causing your problems.
Best Regards,

BOM explosion where first BOM alternative has deletion flag

Hi,
I got the following very basic scenario:
One FERT material has two BOM alternatives (alternative 1 and 2). Both of them are valid in terms of date, status and lot size. When a production order is created by CO01 the system will pick automatically alternative 1 (which is ok for me). BUT if this BOM alternative 1 gets a deletion flag (on BOM alternative header) I would expect that the system would automatically pick alternative 2 (it is the "next" suitable alternative). But the systems says there is no valid BOM available.
Only if I really delete alternative 1 (so I cannot see it anymore in CS02), the system would pick alternative 2 (because it is now the really first one available - no version in front with only deletion flag). But in terms of documentation I cannot delete the alternatives.
Maybe somebody could explain that to me or had a similar problem...
BR and thanks in advance.
Christian

Hi Guys,
many thanks for your suggestions. Setting the status to inactive did the trick. Obviously the deletion flag is not enough at this point.
Just to clarify - production version of course would be an option but that did not work with the following:
I have 6 different routings for this FERT and the user has to choose when the production order is created. That works basically fine when the order is created with CO01 (popup for selection of production version based on MRP4 setting). BUT when a planned order is converted directly from MD04 into a production order the system would automatically pick production version 1 (no matter what setting in MRP4 view). If there are no production version the user would get at least a popup for choosing a routing. But this would maybe an additional thread in the forum
Thanks

SD-PP integration: BOM alternative

hello, friends. i wish to ask you about transfer of requirements from SD to PP.
when processing the sales order, the user can manually select the BOM alternative via a dialog box. in standard, BOM with usage 3 (universal) and 5 (SD) are supported.
i notice that after we run MRP, in the planned order the BOM usage is 1 and alternative is defaulted to the first in the order sequence. this is true if the BOM selection method in the material master MRP 4 view is either for production version or blank.
if the selection method is by key date, then the BOM in the planned order will be the first in sequence for alternatives by key date.
in variant configuration, the specific requirements are transferred. but for a simple BOM, in neither situation is the alternative selected in the sales order transferred. why is this so? are there missing settings?
hoping for your valued inputs.
many thanks.

Hi
In case of Variant configuration(VC) , the BOM Selection will be based on Dependencies assigned to the Components. In VC there is no alternative BOM Concept. There will be one Simple BOM called Super BOM which contain all the components which is required to make all the variants of K-mat.
In the sales order , the user will configure the requirements and based on the requirements selected in SO , the system will pick respective Components from Super BOM during MRP

Subcontracting & BOM alternative

Hi:
I need be able to select a BOM alternative into the Purchase Order for Subcontracting.
I mean, I've more than one option to make a material in subcontracting (different items for the same material) , then I'd like be able to make this decision.
Anybody can help me?
Regards
Omar Perea

hi
i think u need multiple BOm section i.e. alternate BOM,u can achive this using production versions
for this u have to do following
1. Define all the materials in your plant (subcontracting and packaging etc).
2. In the material master MRP 4 view there is one field in which you can mention that this material is not relevant to MRP planning, use this field for subcontracting material so that it will not be planned in MRP runs ( generally use this field for re-order point planning).
3. In the BOM for the subcontracting material put the special procurement key as Subcontracting and do not keep relevance for costing.
4. If you're using packaging material of your company and want to capture the cost of these materials in the subcontracting production order then put relevance for cost.
5. Define alternate BOMs for each customer.
6. Generally the routing will be the same but materials will change, define different prodcution versions for each alternate BOM and assign to the routing.
7. Define the activite types for packing and mixing in the work center and assign them to the cost center, use these for your routing.
8. Whenever you recive a sub-contracting order, use the relevant production version depending on the customer.

Running an Alarm app (now removed) when I noticed my phone alternating between a blank screen & my passcode screen. Powering off and the hard shutdown did not resolve problem. Plugged in headset, phone works normal. Remove headset problem returns.

iPhone 4 - - I was trying out the Alarm 4 free app. I set the alarm for 2 minutes into the future for a test. After one minute my phone naturally went to auto-lock and into sleep mode. At approximately the time the alarm should have activated I noticed my iPhone 4 alternating between a blank screen with the apple logo to the passcode screen. The passcode screen is only visible for a short moment so I am unable to attempt to input my passcode.
I tride a normal shutdown and the "hard" shutdown. The shutdowns work OK but when the phone comes back up it returns to the blank screen with apple logo & passcode screen loop.
The interesting part - - I plugged in a headset and the phone works normal! Unplug the headset and the phone returns to the "loop".
BTW - yes I did remove the Alarm 4 application!
I also turned off the auto-lock feature. With the auto-lock off the phone loops between the blank w/apple logo screen and my home/slide-to-unlock page.
So - - - as long as I leave the headset plugged in the phone works normal. If I remove the headset my phone reverts back to the "loop".
Any ideas?

As a matter of fact I DID get my phone to work. "Google" the term "recovery mode for iphones".
You'll find lots of hits.
Here is an example -
http://www.tipb.com/2009/01/29/iphone-101-put-iphone-recovery-mode/
There are a few different explanations throughout the Google-world. Some are better explained than others.
Bottomline - it worked!!!!
Be advised the Recovery Mode is truly a last ditch effort. In essence you will completely wipe your phone of everything and "recover" it to straight-out-of-the-box. Be warned!
Good luck!

My iPod touch is alternating between a white screen and the Apple startup logo. I can't seem to bring it out of that sequence.

My iPod touch is alternating between a white screen and the apple startup logo. Is it done for?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Satellite L305D-S5934 stuck on "checking system files" screen

Hey guys, so let me start off that I'm really not tech savvy and I've had this laptop since around 2009 and over the years it's had some problems but the most recent being that whenever I try to start up the computer, it'll give me a quick options menu and then enter into the "checking system files" screen, which is fine and everything until it's at 56%. It does this every time I try to restart the laptop and it just completley stops there even if I leave it alone for an hour or two. Hope you guys can help with my dilemma and thanks in advance!

Create BOM alternative via BAPI

How can we create a BOM alternative via BAPI?
I now use CSAP_MAT_BOM_MAINTAIN but then I get the following error:
BOM already exists for 1234 W041 9
I do not want to use batch input.
Kind regards,

Hi,
U can use the following BAPI'S
BAPI_MATERIAL_BOM_GROUP_CREAT
BAPI_MAT_BOM_EXISTENCE_CHECK
i hope they solve your purpose!!

BOM Recursiveness Check

Hi,
In BOM recursiveness check, whether the system will consider the BOM usage into account?
As per the note 42891,
For reasons of performance, the system does not make any fine distinctions during the recursiveness check in the BOM explosion.
1. BOM items of a bill of material are treated as being assigned to all variants of a variant BOM or as being assigned to all configured materials of a configured bill of material.
2. The effectivity (date / parameter effectivity) is not taken into account.
3. The plant is not taken into account.
4. The usage is not taken into account.
Here the usage is not taken into account, what does it mean?
Explain please.
Thanks,
Suresh.

Hello Suresh,
It means that during the recursive check , it does not check if it is a different plant or a usage . if a bom is created for Plant A and usage 3 , and you now try to create a bom for Plant B or usage 1, system will still raise an error and find it recursive.
Eg if you already have a BOM with
Header Material A
     Component B
      Usage 1
And now if you create a BOM with
Header Material B
     Component A
      Usage 5
It will be seen as recursive and you should receive an error.
Hope that helps

Amber
