BOM Header field - regd

Hello All,
we are making one report for that we need to capture the Bill of Material number of the component attached to the activity.
There is BOM with x,y,z components assembly name is "ABC", the "ABC" is transfered to project using CN33, all the components are attached to a activity in network.
Now we can see the assemly number of the components in CJ20N , select the activity, go in detail view, select component overview, scroll to wards right we can find the "Assembly" column and the "ABC" is shown there.
No we have checked the table it is RESB, field BAUGR ,
the problem is.. in the table it is not showing the "ABC" number. and it is not showing any thing.
How this table will get populated ?
Is there any other method to fetch the assembly number from the table.
Thanks,
karthik

Hi,
Fetch STLNR and STLAL from RESB, go to MAST table pass these values and get MATNR. You will get the material number of the assembly. Hope it helps.

Arul.

  • Use of revision no,revision date field in bom header details screen

    Hi all,
    Please let me know use of revision no,revision date field(customer fields tab) in bom header details screen.I tried with F1 ,no information.
    Thanks
    Sukumar

    Dear,
    In standard SAP in BOM header overview there are 4 tabs.
    Quants/Long text.
    Further Data
    Admin Data
    Doc Assignment.
    I think Customer fields tab may be customized based on client's requirement.
    I Know about revision level. It Identifies the change status of a material.
    The revision level can be uniquely assigned to changes made using a change number.
    Hope this helps. Correct me if i my understanding of the problem is  wrong.

  • Object Links fields grey for Production Order,BOM header,BOm item

    Hello Friends,
    1) In DMS Object links tab ,for objects BOM header,BOM item,Production order fields are grey even though necessary settings are done. Is this standard or I am missing some config.
    I did the similar settings for other objects like material master,vendor master,claim etc and I am able to assign these objects in Object links tab.
    2) In Production order I can assign the existing document but can't create document from Production order.I maintain value 1 in img Maintain screen for object link --> Auth.
    Define doc type --> Define object links --> create document = 2 ( Use Transaction to Create Document)
    I can create a document from other objects like Material Master,Claim,PO,PR with similar settings.
    Kindly help me in this regard
    Regards
    Abhijit A. Pachgade

    As u right said this is a standard.
    generally a document can be attched from the function T-code or from the DMS T-code cvo1n, through the object link tab page. * BOTH WAYS POSSIBLE*
    but for BOM, production order it is only one way, u can attach at the function T-code level like co01....ect  ONLY ONE WAY
    especially for PP transation, its one way

  • BADI CEWB_BOM_CUS_FIELDS EWB: Customer Fields with BOM Header (Screen E

    Can someone post details (or better..an example) on how this BADI can be invoked?
    I have used exits PCSD0003 and PCSD0002, but this BADI and it's partner for the BOM Item may be a better approach. I don't have a great deal of BADI implementation experience, but can learn fast. I create my own Implemenmtation and added code to the TAB Description method (below), activated it and went to CS01 to see if the new TAB had shown up... it did not. I thnk I'm missing the call to the method somewhere, but I can't locate where this might be..????
    method IF_EX_CEWB_BOM_CUS_FIELDS~BOM_CUS_TAB_DESCRIPTION.
    e_tab_description = 'MY BOM Header Data'.
    endmethod.

    Hi!
    Would be greatful to you if you could let me know the answer for your question as iam even looking out for the one,

  • BOM Header and BOM Item Enhancements

    Hi all,
    I just want to make sure I got this correct so far and looking for further info. I have some z-fields(custom fields) that I'm adding to CI_STKO (BOM Header) and CI_STPO (BOM ITEM). I need to be able to display these fields in transactions CS02,CS03,CS11,CS12,CS13. I think I'm suppose to use the following enhancements:
    PCSD0003 : BOMs: Customer fields in header
    PCSD0002 : BOMs: Customer fields in item
    Can anyone give me some info on the screen exits in these enhancements if this is correct and if not can someone give me some guidence to displaying the z-fields in these transaction?
    Message was edited by:
            Akeem Lockett

    You will have to make all the modifications inside the function group XCSA.
    You wiill get the necessary exits there.
    For displaying the custom fields you can use the screens 701 to 721. These are subscreens for displaying the item details. The moment you make changes here in these screens , you will be able to see the effect in CS01/02/03.
    Hope it helps.

  • To change BOM header

    Hi Muthu
    Once if you create BOM. It will not allow you to change the header data. You can only change the data's of items.
    To change the header data. Try with BDC with the help of ABAP's

  • Authorization Group in BOM Header

    Can any one guide how to create Authorisation group for Bom and also it's use. <See field Authorization group in BOM header>
    Regards,
    Samar

    Hi,
    The Authorization group can be created as follows
    Transaction SE54 >Select 'Authorization Groups'>Create/Change-->New Entries.
    Now the authorization group created can be assigned to your table.
    Goto transaction 'SE56' and select authorization group radio button and create your authorization group.
    In general different users will be given different authorizations based on their role in the orgn.
    We create ROLES and assign the Authorization and TCODES for that role, so only that user can have access to those T Codes.
    USe SUIM and SU21 T codes for this.
    USE
    Much of the data in an R/3 system has to be protected so that unauthorized users cannot access it. Therefore the appropriate authorization is required before a user can carry out certain actions in the system. When you log on to the R/3 system, the system checks in the user master record to see which transactions you are authorized to use. An authorization check is implemented.check Su22 and SU24u will get list of objects
    Hope clear to you.

  • Missing Functionality - Price List on BOM Header via DI API

    short: Cannot access Price List (oitt.pricelist) OR Show BOM components (oitt.showcomp) fields from SDK or DTW on BOM Header.
    longer: issue where we are creating Bills of Material using the DI API. We are unable to fill the Price List on the header (oitt.pricelist) via the DI API. This does not affect functionality of the BOM or any production orders created from the BOM. However it is a problem when we try to rollup prices using Update Parent Item Prices Globally. This utility is looking for the relevant price list in the Bill of Material Header and thus ignoring all of our items that were created via the DI API.

    Are you serious ?
    They use this property to change the Price List of a Goods Receipt ?
    I mean I understand that this is a Marketing Document but the lack of a property for disctinct values like Price List
    is not that good.

  • Invoice Template problem - Putting a Header field in repeating Lines rows

    Dear experts,
    I would be grateful for a problem I am having with an Invoice statement I am developing (Oracle Applications 11.5.10 with BI Publisher version 10.1.3.4). This is very similar to the one in Tim Dexter's Blog (Anatomy of a Template):
    http://blogs.oracle.com/xmlpublisher/2007/03/anatomy_of_a_template_ii_heade.html
    My requirement is to add a single line into the lines table, as seen in the Blog, which is a COMMENTS field from the header part of the XML and the problem is that it can be 1 line to maybe 5 lines. This is only on the first page. This causes problems as I don't know how to find out how far down the lines table I may be after adding this COMMENTS header field in here, to then know how many lines to loop over to ensure that the lines do not carry on printing over the bottom of the page e.g. if the COMMENTS is 3 lines - how do I know this to then only print 3 minus the maximum lines per page ($lpp) only on the first page?
    Any pointers would be of great help.
    Many thanks,

    The COMMENTS field I've found out can be of any varible size and include carriage returns. For example, could be:
    JD Trx special instructions 010908
    FAO: PETER MUSCUTT
    REF: FERRY ROAD 2351
    ========================
    INCOME DUE TO COMPANY FOR
    THE OPERATION OF EFERRY
    ROAD CAR PARK
    This causes such problems as being able to know how many lines this field will be, so that I know where to start the first Lines row in the invoice and also how many lines I can put on this first page (starting point - $lpp).
    One method I thought would be to count how many characters there are in this field, when it reaches the line size on the invoice, increment a count varible that would be used to indicate the starting point for the first lines record. I would need to compare each character and if it is a carriage return, then increment the count also. This seems quite a heavy wieght way to solve this and would welcome any over ideas.
    Thanks,

  • How to view "From" header field in OUTgoing messages in Mail? Frustrating.

    In Mail v.4.3 (in OSX 10.6.4), I need to view the "From" field in my outgoing messages as I am composing them. However, there seems to be no setting in Mail which allow this.
    I find this very frustrating because in Eudora (which I used to use), the "From" field in outgoing messages is visible by default. But in Mail, not only is it not visible by default, there seems to be no way to make it visible.
    In the "Customize..." button to the left of the Subject field in outgoing messages, one has the option to add as default outgoing message fields "cc," "bcc," "Reply-To," and "Subject," but none of those are what I want. It allows one to also view the address of the mail server, but that also is not what I'm looking for. What I want is to see my outgoing +email address+. And nowhere is there an option in the Preferences to turn this on. (At least as far as I could tell.)
    In fact, the only way to see the identity in the outgoing "From" field is to go to Preferences, then click on Accounts, and look there; or send oneself a test email. Both of which are a hassle and should be unnecessary.
    In case you're curious as to why I want to see my outgoing "From" header field:
    I have several different "personas" online, each of which uses a different email address: My work address (with a work-related domain); my family/personal address (with a different email address than my work address); an online avatar I use in various gaming sites (also with its own address, since I don't want to use my personal name/address in the gaming community); and so on. However, I have all incoming emails to all accounts auto-forwarded to the same central email account. Most of the time I'm just replying to business emails, so my outgoing "Full Name" and "Email Address" (in Preferences>Accounts) are generally set to my business name and address; but on occasion when I want to reply to a non-business email and not have the recipient see my business email address, I go in to Preferences>Accounts and change "Full Name" and "Email Address" (i.e. what is displayed to the user) to something different. And when I'm done with that, I change it back to my business address.
    However, sometimes I forget if I've changed it back or not, or forget what I've changed it to. In Eudora, All one needed to one was create a new outgoing email and it would display the "From" field so I could instantly see my outgoing identity. But in Mail, there is no "From" field in outgoing emails, so I'm constantly nervous and wondering which outgoing identity I may have changed to and accidentally forgotten to change back from.
    (Yes, yes, I know that if a recipient wanted to be snoopy, they could look at the "full headers" of any incoming email and see the name of my email server, which may different from my displayed email address; but we're not talking about spy-stuff here, I'm just trying to not confuse people and keep business separate from personal.)
    So: is there any way for me to see the outgoing "From" field in the emails I send? Or am I condemned to constantly (and mostly unnecessarily) checking "Preferences>Accounts" to see what I have enetered there?

    Thanks for replying.
    What is the "compose window" to which you are both referring? I could find no reference to such a thing in the Mail menus or Help.
    Do you mean the "Composing" pane in the Preferences? I don't see what either one of you is referring to there, but I did notice there something that could function as an awkward workaround: If I click on the "Automatically CC myself" box in Preferences>Composing, then when I start a new email, my email address is displayed in the "CC" field -- and luckily, Mail allows me to then delete my email address out of the CC field, so I don't have to spam myself with duplicate copies of all my emails. This way, I can at least briefly see what email address I'm using, before I delete it from the CC field. Pretty awkward and unnecessarily laborious, however -- still not a perfect solution.
    Or, by "composing window," are you referring to an outgoing email? As I said in my original comment, I do see what Ernie called "a small box with lines and an arrow at the bottom left of the header box." This is what I had to say about it:
    +"In the "Customize..." button to the left of the Subject field in outgoing messages, one has the option to add as default outgoing message fields "cc," "bcc," "Reply-To," and "Subject," but none of those are what I want. It allows one to also view the address of the mail server, but that also is not what I'm looking for. What I want is to see my outgoing email address. And nowhere is there an option in the Preferences to turn this on. (At least as far as I could tell.)"+
    In other words, when Ernie says, "click the box beside From," I can't do that -- because there is no such option. That's the whole problem in the first place. If there was a "From" field beside which I could click a box to make it appear, I would have done so! But there is no "From" field in the "Customize" section of the "small box with lines and an arrow at the bottom left of the header box."
    I find it completely mystifying that both of you seem to be able to see a "From" field available to be added to the header of outgoing emails, yet no such option is available to me in Mail. What possibly could be causing this? 10.6.4 is freshly installed on my machine, and Mail seems brand new and uncorrupted. And I'm using Mail 4.3, the latest version.
    Are you saying that everyone else can see an option to have a "From" field in their outgoing messages, but I uniquely don't? Very very very strange.
