Dropship Sales BOM

Has anyone managed to create a Sales BOM for dropship items?
I have a customer that is an ecommerce business that drop ships all of their items. They would like to have the ability to have featured sales items where Buy item A and get 50% off item B. So the first thing I thought of was Sales BOM. Is there any other way to accomplish this?

3rd Part Dropship Scenario with Sales BOM

Hi
We have a 3rd Party Dropshipment scenario with Sales BOM with susequent Debit
Characteristics of Sales BOM
Sales BOM is created
Header Material is Valuated but non-inventorised (Accounting and costing view should exist)
Component Material is Valuated and inventorised
In Sales order, Pricing is done at the header material not at the components level
During Billing we get the COGS for the header material (cost coming from VPRS)
No VPRS exist at component level instead we have copy of VPRS just to capture the value in COPA for our reporting
Process
1. Sales Order created with Sales BOM exploded in sales order.
2. At the Item level Purchase requisition is created.
3. PR for the components is converted to PO
4. Vendor Delivers the components to Customer.
5. Statistical GR done in our system.
6. Invoicing is done in MIRO
7. We directly do the Billing. Billing is created at header level. Revenue and COGS is reported at Header level only.
We are stuck when we are doing the Subsequent Debit (can be for any unplanned cost). For Susequent Debit we are not able to report differential COPA at header level.
Normally whenever you do subsequent debit in case of 3rd party dropship for normal material, COPA document automatically attached to Billing. This is happening because of the behaviour of VPRS condition type. In our case VPRS only exists at header level and not at component level but replenishment is for components. Subsequent debit is also happening at component level. We need it to be reported at header level.
We need some solution to this.
Please advise
Regards
Neeraj

Hi Raj,
Please clarified your requirement here, you mention that you wanted to valuated COGS at actual cost of PO? That sound more like actual costing here and what is the reason for this requirement?
Is this MTO with variant configuration?
If this is MTO with VC, Yes - we do cost Sales Order and here is the brief steps:-
Price Control S
a) Sales Order Creation - Normally when you save this will be costed and marked automatically. Note that condition type EK02 will represent the cost here
b) Run MRP based on Sales Order requirement which resulting planned orders, PR, etc
c) Convert PR-PO, Planned Order -> Production Order
d) Confirmations, GR on PO which valuated according to the SCE Costing in step a)
e) PGI will be based on the GR value on step d) which is also your SCE Costing
f) Any variance between PO and SCE need to be settle.

Sales BOM vs. Bundle

Can someone provide an overview of sales bundle functionality and if there is any good documentation on this, and how they can be used with a BOM or bundle containing a third party dropshipped material?
Thanks
John

Hi,
Sales BOM:
The sales bill of materials represents a finished product which is assembled at the sales stage.
Sales bill of materials; both the finished product and the components appear as separate items in the sales order document.
For example, the finished product can be a set of garden furniture.
the sales bill of materials you do not manage the finished product as an inventory item, but rather as a sales item. The components can also be sales and stock items in their own right. When you create the delivery to dispatch the customeru2019s order, the components are backflush issued from stock.
The components for Sales bills of material must be sales items.
production BOM:
The Production Bill of Materials represents a finished product (parent )made up of different inventory components (children). During the production process, you turn the components into the finished product.
Components in the production bill of materials are physical items (for example a screw, a wooden board, a measured quantity of lubricant or paint), or virtual objects (one work hour).

Sales BoM - Drop Ship

Hi,
ist it possible to generate a sales BoM with a items from a drop ship stock?
Philipp

Philipp,
When the Sales BOM is processed, at the time of Delivery, it will need inventory for all child Items. The Drop ship Item will not have inventory and therefore you cannot have a dropship item in a Sales BOM.
If in Administration > System Initialization > Document Settings .....Block Negative Inventory is not checked then the Delivery could be processed but the Dropship Item would show as negative onhand quantity in Inventory.
This is not technically correct

How to transfer sales bom from SAP R/3 to APO?

Hi Experts,
I just want to ask how to transfer sales bom from R/3 to APO? if i change my bom usage to 5 and use this BOM in my Production version be enough to send it to APO?
Also, this is my first time using sales bom, could you please help me understand how sales bom work in APO planning?
Thanks so much.
Mylene

Hi Senthil,
Thanks again for your reply. I was trying to CIF sales BOM in APO but only the header material are being created in APO. The component are not added in PDS. This is how I create it in SAP R/3:
1. transaction cs01 --> enter header material, plant and BOM USAGE =5
2. inside cs01, i entered components, quantity for each components and ITEM category = L (stock item)
i also eneterd base quantity for header material
3. create production version for header material with routing and this BOM
4. create and activate material CIF model for header and components
5. create and activate PDS CIF model for header and components.
After doing all these steps, PDS is created in APO but I only have the header material (no components)
I tried changing BOM to other bom usage and components were populated in PDS.
Am i missing nay steps? Thanks.
Regards,
Mylene

Error: Sales BOM / delivery document creation via DI API

Running into an error from SAP when trying to post a Delivery Note document object via the DI API.
-5002 -You cannot add a document with a bill of materials that does not include all components
I have a Sales BOM on a Sales Order. All components have been included within the Delivery Note object. When calling the document Add() function, SAP is pushing back with the error above.
Does the fact that the components of the Sales BOM are also BOMs themselves make a difference in whether the DI API fails or succeeds in posting the Delivery Note?

Does the fact that the components of the Sales BOM are also BOMs themselves make a difference ?
I believe the answer is YES.
Thanks,
Gordon

Schedule Lines for Sales BoM Material

Hi All,
When i trying to maintain the multiples schedule lines for the Sales BoM Material(Both Header and Item), system is not allowing to maintain it.Please guide me how to achieve this?

Hi,
"Schedule Line allowed" is enabled at Item category. The Requirement is If we have multiple schedule lines for BoM Line Item, we are not able to maintain. Suppose the Order Quantity is 50 Units and we need schedule line of 10 Quantity each month. We are not able to maintain. System takes the complete 50 quantity and do the availability check and proposes the availablity Date. We are not able to maintain different schedules manually.

Sales BOM Header line item confirmed without components in Delivery

Hi Experts,
The issue is about the delivery is created with the single component for the Sales BOM where as it contains two.
We have analyzed the issue and checked that the missing component would have not been available in the stock during the time when the delivery is created and hence is not included(Header material and single component is included in the Delivery).
The user's concern is; when there is no stock for any one of the component, then it shouldn't have confirmed the header material. Kindly suggest.

Hi Azam,
It seems to me that you want to use Delivery Group for Sales BOM where If Mat A = Mat B + Mat C and Mat B Availability date is 20/07/2014 (DD/MM/YYYY) and Mat C availability is 25/07/2014 then Main line item should be confirmed with 25/07/2014.
If any one sub Item is not available, then Any of the item from the Grouping should not be dispatched.
If this is the requirement then, In Item Category (VOV7) for main Item update Create Delivery Group field with X and your requirement will be fulfilled.
Do let us know the result after testing.
Regards,
MJ.

Sales BOM And Free Goods workaround

we have 1 good with a sale BOM and we want to give the Same good away as a free good, so if the customer buys 10 he gets one free, however there is a problem with the BOM not exploding. Can anyone suggest a workaround this.

Hi
I think this is a standard sap issue.
When we give a free good the item category becomes TANN. Now BOM material will have different item category. TAB.
Now for BOM category material, i think there is no free good item category. Probably u can try creating a new category which wil be a free goods category and which will carry all the characteristics of BOM mateerial.
Furthermore i think this will be issue only with exclusive free goods. But if u have inclusive free goods then there will be no BOM issue as there will be no other line item added for free goods.
Kind regards
Sandeep

Sales BOM And Free Goods

hi,
I have the following problem, for one of our materials (Norm), we have a sales bom for a material (Nlag). however with the same material, we have free goods of the same main material inclusive. what happens now is that i can only explode either the sales bom or the free goods, but i require both to eplode together.

Dear Reshigan Govender,
This cannot be taken as a part of the standard functionality. For this development is required.
Do let me know in case of any queries.
Hope this helps you.
Do award points if you found them useful.
