Bom scenario to explode in sales order

hi , i have 1)main material KMAT type
2)next material KMAT type ( its the component)
both materials have classes config chars....
now , maintain BOM for 1 where 2nd item is bom item for it.
now when i create sales order for 1 it should explode and should give all options for both 1 and 2 materials
thanks

Hi ,
What you are refering to is Multi-Level BOM Explosion
Please find the details below:
Purpose
The setting BOM explosion: multi-level means that multiple levels of the BOM of a configurable material are exploded in the sales order, if the configuration profiles of the configurable assemblies also support BOM explosion. You can configure assemblies across multiple levels.
Features
All configurable items are configured in the sales order, not only sales-relevant items.
You can use filters in the configuration profile to restrict the scope of the BOM items (see Filters for BOM Explosion).
Sales-relevant items are copied to the sales order as order items.
The characteristic values assigned to each configured item are saved.
In MRP, components and operations selected depend on the characteristic values assigned according to the principles of low-level configuration (see Low-Level Configuration).
If you define selection conditions for the BOM items of a subordinate configurable assembly, and these selection conditions refer to the characteristics of the assembly, you must use the object variable $PARENT to refer to the characteristics.
This type of order processing lets you use constraints to infer values for configurable materials on different levels.
Prerequisites
The configuration profile of the header material has the configuration parameter BOM explosion: multi-level.
The subordinate materials whose BOMs are to be exploded in the sales order must also have a BOM explosion parameter (single-level or, preferably, multi-level).
Process Flow
Create a sales order and enter the configurable material as an order item.
You see the configuration editor, where you assign values to the characteristics of the header material. You can then display the result of the BOM explosion by choosing Result.
If any of the selected BOM components are also configurable materials, you can assign values to the characteristics of these materials. Depending on the configuration parameters, the BOMs of these materials are exploded on the result screen.
The header material appears as a sales order item. If the BOM contains further sales-relevant items, these are included as sub-items. The characteristic values assigned to the header material and the subordinate configurable materials are saved.
In the planned order or production order, BOM components and operations for the configured materials are determined according to the characteristic values assigned.
Reward if helpful.
Thanks

BOM is not exploding in Sales Order

Hello,
In Sales Order VA01, when i try to put my finished product it has an error message: ( Material 10001676 is not copied from the bill of material.)
and the Diagnosis
When the bill of material was exploded, it was established that no sales document item could be created for material 10001676.System Response
The system ignores the material during bill of material explosion.Procedure
Check if the BOM explosion can be used without material 10001676. If not, delete the main item which lead to the BOM explosion. You may be able to enter an item manually in which the material 10001676 in the BOM is replaced.
How could i explode the FG material in the SAles order
thanks

Check whether you have created the BOM correctly or not.
Create the BOM in t.code CS01.
BOM usage "5" must be entered and specify your Plant.
In the next screen,enter the components and their units/quantity and the BOM item category as "L" (stock material) and save it.
Go to the material master of the BOM material, in the "Sales org 2" ,enter "Item category group" either LUMF or ERLA.
If you want that the sub-items (Item category TAE) will be free and Main item(Item category TAQ) will be priced, then use Item category Group ERLA.
If you want that, Main item(Item category TAP) will be free and sub-items(Item category TAN) will be priced, then use Item Category Group LUMF.
Go to the Item category details (VOV7) for Item category TAQ and TAP, in field "Structure scope" ,enter value A or B as required from the drop down.
Now, if you will create the order, the BOM will explode.

How to restrict BOM explosion in Quotation and Sales Order

Dear all,
How can we restrict BOM main item explosion in Sales Order.
this BOM main item is having special order items which have to generate purchase requisition (item category - BANC),
with out exploding bom main item, can we generate a purchase requisition for BOM subitems, can any body explain me that how can we do that.
your suggestions will be highly appreciated.
thank you
Raghu Ram

Hi Raghu Ram,
The BOM explosion is controlled by item category.
In the item category configuration screen, under "Bills of Material/ Configuration", you can see "Structure Scope" field.
Select the one which is applicable to your case:-
"blank" - Do not explode material structure
A - Explode single-level BOM
B - Explode multi-level BOM
C - Configuration, no BOM explosion
D - Configuration, poss. with BOM explosion
E - Structure from Customer_Function (product selection)
Hope this helps

Nicole

Automise CS61 BOM creation with reference to Sales order

Hi Experts.
Need your help in fixing one scenario:
We have scenarion data coming from third party containing BOM data with respect to Sales order.
We are using XI/PI,
1: Do we have any idoc for CS61 master creation. (Not likely to move in bdc ....etc)
2: How to Create multilevel in that....
Please guide .. Help is appreciable.
Regards
Deepak Sodhi

Hi,
You will need to make assignment from So item to Delivery item please check if copy control is maintained at item level. Also make sure that Copy controls are maintianed for the billing document from the SO & Delivery both as this would be the next step.

BOM NOT Exploding in Sales Order

Hi,
I have created Sales BOM in CS01 and now while creating sales order it is not exploding.
can you please tell me how can i explode the same or why it is not exploding.
Also one more query, i have created sales orderBOM and have saved it. Now 1 item from it i dont want to deliver. Is it possible? Pricing of this BOM is at Item level.
Please advise.
Thanks

VK,
The BOM is created for the finished material or semifinished material, for which sales is done. The bom is executed to make sure or find the material availability based on which this materials are passed to production.
In case of Sales BOM it is composition of materials that makes final or finished material. It is only an information to the customer that finished material is composed of these sub materials. If you go through Sales BOM article you will be clear. you use ERLA, if the material that you are issuing is completed (here price is calculated at the main item level) or you use LUMF if the material is not completed (here the price is calculated from sub item level).
So those items are subjected to delivery but not for deletion.

BOM not exploding in Sales order & Net Value error

Hello Dear all,
I have created a product "A" with BOM items 10, 20 & 30.
Item cat. Gr for "A" is ERLA & for 10, 20 & 30 is LUMF.
I have also created BOM with these 3 matls. (ie 10, 20 & 30).
When processing Sales Order Item cat. appeared in SO for "A" is TAP & for other 3 is TAN. "A" shows the price maintained for it, but not showing Net Value at Header level data in SO.
Also document is incomplete because of Net value for Items 10, 20 & 30.
I don?t want price of 10, 20 & 30 should display in SO at Item level
Can anyone suggest the required setting?
Thanks
Shan

hi,
For BOM mainly two material groups are used.
LUMF and ERLA.
If you used ERLA in the main material which consists of different materials then the pricing would be carried out only for the main item, while the other sub items pricing would not be displayed.
while if you use LUMF then the main material would not be priced but only the sub items would be relevant for pricing the the total of all the sub items forms the basis of the sales order net value.
regarding the net value error you can just check the pricing configuration for the steps and sub total.
regards,
Siddharth.

Sales order BOM is not reflecting in sales order

Hi Guys,
I have created a sales order in which all the items of the sales BOM (ex:A-a1,a2,a3).have been exploded.My strategy is make to order and i am dealing with valuated stock.
Now i have created sales order BOM for that particular sales order thro cs61.I have made some changes in the item level (ex:A-a1,a4,a5) in the order BOM i want these changes to be reflected in my sales order is there any way to do so...
RAMASWAMY

Dear,
You have to configure BOM explosion in VOV7 - item category settings - BOM area and you can specify whether it is a single level or multi level explosion etc., Depending on the configuration made here, the BOM explosion takes place in the order.

BOM and Material Configuration and Sales order..

hi,
in my requirement, i am supposed to create a project automatically based on sales order..
additional requirement is that material components on the project are based on the the selections during the sales order creation
(for example if customer chooses tiles instead of vinyl flooring then materials for tiles will be selected automaticall)
i maintained reference points in my BOM and in the standard network activities.
i also maintained the class and characteristics of the material..
the missing part i believe lies in the dependency being set for the BOM. example:
=if floortype='vinyl' then get BOM_floortype..
how to configure/set up that scenario? i cant seem to find the link between characteristic selection and output of selected BOM.
Thanks in advance.

Dear ramesh,
If it possible...can u explain...regarding

Sample bom creation and explosion in sales order

hi,
can any one help to create a simple bom with atleast one sub item for the bom and create a sales order in which the bom explodes ( i mean when u enter the main bom item it should list its sub items as its line item below it)...
(also mention what item categories are to be taken care ... )

Hi MMn,
Bill of materials (BOM)
1. In the SAP System, you can use BOMs to represent different objects (such as materials, equipment, functional location BOMs, and documents) and to maintain object-specific data.
2. Document BOM: A complex document may be made up of several documents, such as a program, technical drawings, papers, and photographs. These related information and documentation objects are grouped together as a unit using a document structure a BOM for a document.
3. Equipment BOMs are used to describe the structure of equipment and to assign spare parts to equipment for maintenance purposes. Bills of material for functional locations group together the elements of a technical structure, such as the functional unit of an entire plant.
4. You work with order BOMs when you specially tailor the make-to-order production of your products to the requirements of your customers. In order to meet the customer requirements, sales order specific modifications to various assemblies are often required. Furthermore, assemblies are often specially constructed for a particular sales order.
5. Before you can create a BOM for the component parts of an object, the object must have a valid master record in your system.
6. A bill of material that you create for a material is known as a material BOM in the SAP System. A BOM explosion answers the question: What is the product made of? This question arises in various situations, such as when you want to:
Determine material requirements for a product
Look at the overall structure of a product in a design department
See an overview of the parts and materials required
Calculate the effects of changes to costs
7. BOM is a collection of materials that make up a product. For example computer, home theatre system. Material BOM is complex and is dependent on sales and distribution, material management or production planning.
8. The most important rule is that the material type has to be a FINISHED PRODUCT (FERT) in order to categorise it as a BOM.
9. BOM processing is divided into two different ways either at the MAIN item level if the item is assembled or at the sub-item level (i.e. at the component level) if the material is not assembled.
10. BOM is configured at the item category level (VOV7) and transaction code to create a BOM is CS01.
11. In case of single level BOM, main item categories TAQ and TAP should represent single level BOM in VOV7 and in case of multi level BOM, the main item categories should represent multi level BOM.
Main item level processing
1. The material master records should have the item category group ERLA in the sales org.2 screen of the finished product. In this case, the associated sub items function only as text items, and thus are not relevant for delivery. This process ensures that pricing, inventory control and delivery processing is carried out the header level that is for the finished product only. This is mainly relevant to the assembled products.
2. item category group ERLA; main item category TAQ (schedule line CP) and sub item category TAE (schedule line CT)
Sub-item level processing
1. If the business prefers to have the sub-items be responsible for pricing, inventory control and delivery processing, the item category group should be LUMF on screen sales org.2 of the respective material master record. This ensures that subcomponents are relevant for processing. This is relevant to the products that are not assembled.
2. item category group LUMF; main item category TAP (schedule line is CT), sub item category TAN (schedule line is CP)
Multi-level BOM
In order to activate the multi-level BOM, structure scope in VOV7 has to be changed from single level explosion to multi level explosion.
Try this and revert back fr clearifications

BOM not picking correctly in Sales Order Costing

Hi,
During Sales Order costing of configurable material Say ABC is configurable material(finished material) and it has 4 components. I am using standard sales order costing variant as PPC4. During sales order costing from VA22(quotation) of the material ABC(finished material) system take its first two components during costing. Remaining two components system does not take. It shows correctly BOM usage as 2. But two components are missing during calculation.. What may be reaon or special configuration is required for sales order costing ?
Best Reagrds,
Samrat

Dear,
please check your condition type : Ek02
It is used for statistical posting. If you use this condition type, the result of unit costing is simply a statistical value which you can compare with the price. So, this can be can used instead of VPRS to calculate the profit margin for the assembly item.
Please note the following points:
1) The condition type must have condition category 'Q' (costing).
2) The condition type must agree with the condition type defined for unit costing in the pricing procedure.
So, EK01 & EK02 are the condition type that will display the results of the unit costing for certain type of sales document and can be used in Make To Order scenario.
Sales order cost estimate can be flow to COPA. Where you have to maintain setting in COPA in Define access to Standard cost estimate for costing key select sales order cost estimate.
For transfer SD to COPA you have to use Transaction KE4I here enter SD conditions with COPA Value fields.
So, whether EK01 or EK02, these will determine from Requirement class configuration. Requirement class in turn there is requirement type and requirement type is determined by item category and MRP type when you cost a sales order (valuated/non valuated sales order) at that time when save the cost estimate then the cost value automatically gets populated in your condition tab. Hence, if the item is not relevant to sales order costing then the cost comes from VPRS.

How to explode a BOM in sales order

Hi,
We have the following scenario.
Product 999 is made by putting together cases of the products 12345 and 8888. The packaging for 12345 and 8888 is not altered but they just take 4 CAR of 12345 and 8 CAR of 8888 and put them on one pallet and that makes a 999.
We get a sales order from customer only for 999 and we would like to have something happen automatically like BOM explosion ( this could be also a trigger when a background job is run) and the sales order should get the relevant qtys. of 12345 and 8888 in the same sales order along with 999.
I was searching in internet and I found that we can use item categories to achieve this. Can some body advise how to do that?
main questions around this are what are the item categories I need to use, what is the BOM type to be created etc...?
Thanks.

Hi,
Maintain iteam category group in material master as per u requirement
ERLA - Structre Material above (Price at main item level)
or
LUMF - Structure material below(Price at each item level).
Now in t-code VOV7,
Select higer level item category which you are dtermining mostlt
TAP or TAQ, go in details of item category
under bill of material tan/configuration maintain APLLICATION - SD01
Now create Material BOM by CS01.
It will explode in sales order.

Sales Order BOM-Cost of Sales issue

Dear Gurus
Standard Sales Order BOM supports either Pricing Inventory control, Delivery at Header level (Item category group ERLA) or All these at Component level ( Item category group LUMF).
I have a scenario where in Header is Intangible and Relevent for Pricing only. However Down the level parts are relevent for Delivery and Inventory control.
I am exploding the Sales Order BOM with Item category group ERLA. However When I do Billing only for Header I do not get Cost of Sales as there is no Cost in Header. I cannot bring Down the level components in Billing as these are not Billing relevent.
Just To Clarify it more these are Cost is not posted in COPA as Protability analysis documents are only generated with Billing.

For LUMF - BOM, Plant field in Sales Order should be editable for TAP

Dear Gurus,
I have the following requirement.
Requirement...
TheComponent level BOM (LUMF) should be exploded in sales order with one by default plant when iI enter the main component in Sales order but if I want to change the plant of main item manually system should allow me in order change mode. And this changed plant to be determined automatically for all the components of that BOM.
As we know if we maintain the BOM at component level we will use the Itm Catg Grp "LUMF" so the pricing will be determined on the component level.
In CS01 we maintain the BOM for a main item. I have followed the same process in CS01 by entering Main Item material, Plant and BOM usage (5). whenever i enter the main item in sales order it explodes correctly with components, quantity and Plant.
The Plant field for main item (TAP itm Catg) becomes gray. But now my query is that if I want to change the plant of main item system is not allowing me as I have created BOM for a specific Plant. Same Bom I have maintained with other plants also
I know that We have one more option in CS01 like we can create a BOM without entering Plant also. But before I doing it for trial and error I want to know whether it will work for my latest requirement.
And what is the Group BOM ? how to use it? will it be helpful me in this requirement?
Please help me for the issue, I need to configure it as soon as possible.
regards,
Vojas

Dear Kapil,
Thanks for your suggestion i followed it also but yet I am facing the same problem.
I did as follows
I extended the Main item and components to the different plants.
And also created the same BOM for different plants in CS01.
After doing this if I create a Sales order and enter the Main Item with quantity system asks me for the Plant to explore the BOM, as i enter a plant BOM get explodes and the plant for main item becomes gray which i dont want. Any how I want the this plant field for main item in editable mode.
Let me explain my requirement in short
I maintain the LUMF BOM (Pricing at component level) .
once I enter the BOM material with quantity system should explode the bom with one plant by default. and in change mode of sales order the Plant for main item should be editable instead of gray mode. Becoz decision can be changed later on the delivering plant location.
Please suggest me. Its a high priority issue for me.
regards,
Vojas

Plant change in Sales Order not possible due to Sales Order BOM

Hi all,
we are trying to change the Delivery Plant in a Sales Order after the creation of a Sales Order BOM, but it gives a V1773 message first, then a blocking error V1810. The same happens with a Production Order.
How can we change the Delivery Plant after the creation of one of these objects?
Our scenario:
- Make To Order
- Sales Order BOM created with transaction CS61
- Sales Order Routing created with transaction CA01
We need to create the Sales Order BOM on the Production Plant (which doesn't change), but we need to be able to change the Delivery Plant in any time.
Should you have further questions, feel free to ask.
Thanks in advance,
Giuseppe

Hello Caselli,
For V1773, please check the solution provided by note 588884, which is a modification. With this note it turns possible to delete all multi-level sales order BOM using transaction CSKB, which may be useful.
The behavior mentioned by you is the standard behavior of the system. The scenario works as designed, a plant change is only possible as long as there is no other document assigned to the sales order.
Longtext of V1 810 says:
The plant can no longer be changed in the following situations:
2. There is a production order for the order item but it is not a static assembly order.
Your scenario seems to be point 2 as mentioned above. You can check the requirement type (VBAP-BEDAE) and requirement class in OVZH and assembly type (MNTGA) in OVZG.
If you change the plant for the items with existing production orders, it will cause the incorrect values in the COPA. An order item is assigned to plant A and the corresponding production order exits. This
means that the costs are assigned to plant A (this is the place where the costs accrue). Order and production order will be balanced at plant A.
If you now, after the process has already started, should allow to change the order to plant B the following examples of problems will come up:
- The costs accrued in plant A (see production order)
- The SD order is now assigned to plant B, this means billing will be with plant B
This leads to the fact the costs are on plant A, plant B has a benefit. Plant A cannot settle the costs and plant B has unexpected earnings. Inconsistencies in all involved process steps, SD, CO, COPA are the results.
If you want to change the plant in the sales order you'll have to perform these steps:
= Delete the production order.
= Change the plant of the sales order item from A to C.
This should be possible unless there are other documents which are already assigned to this sales order item. Save.
= Create a new production order and assign it to the sales order item again.
I hope I am able to help you with this information.
Best Regards,
Bhavin Joshi

Query related to selection of BOM (Production BOM or Sales Order BOM)

Hello All
Am having a scenario wherein the FG is having 5 components out of these 5, two are subassembly and 3 are raw materials, 3 of these components are customer specific i.e. 1 suby assly and 2 raw materials are customer order specific, now what i wanna know is that how shall i decide the BOM, will it be a Sales Order BOM or normal Production BOM. If i go for a Sales Order BOM, can any body tell me the processing of Sales order BOM. For the above FG the packing materials are also cutomer specific and that too is included in BOM. Any help in this regard shall be highly appreciated.
Regards,
J K Tharwani

Thanks for your reply.
I would like to know am using strategy 52 for this FG, so that i can have option to procure order specific components after sales order arrival, and components which are not specific to the order can be procured before sales order arrival. Where am confused is if am planning with FG1 i.e. am entering PIR for FG1 and am procuring order independent components before sales order arrival and suppose if the sales order arrives for FG2 for which components i have procured before sales order arrival is same but the remaining components which are order specific are different from that of FG1, then how the MRP shall behave. How the requirement for the FG2 shall be met. Kindly throw some light on this scenario.
Expecting a positive and prompt response.
