Material Determination in Sales Order BOM

Dear Gurus,
We would appreciate any solutions and/or suggestions you can provide for our problem below:
Background:
Part XYZ is a sales BOM which contains 3 components: A, B, and C. Component B has a material determination (product substitution/interchange) with material B1, B2 or B3.
Requirement:
When a customer orders part XYZ, and if component/material B is not available in stock/shortage, then any or all of the product interchanges may be used to fulfill the order until the full order quantity is confirmed.
Problem:
We are able to explode the BOM to its components but unable to generate the product interchanges for component B in the sales order.
Could you please help? Thank you very much.
Best regards,
Michael SA

How to check the analysis of material determination in sales order

hi,
We are trying to create a sale order with material determination. Material determination analysis is on. After switching this on while adding a new line item, in an existing sales order, we are able to do analysis as the system itself takes us to analysis screen. But once the document is saved, we need analysis to be done at material determination for the determined materials , something similar to pricing or account determination analysis.Please help
Regards,
Aparna.

Hi,
If you drag the line item a little towards the right side, you will find a filed material entered. The one you see in the material filed on sales order over view screen is the one determined. You can as well double click and see the fields material entered and material determined.
Is there anything else you are expecting to see as part of analysis ?

Sale order bom

dear sir,
 can you tell be how to create sale order bom(master bom) from the beginning. please give detailed process right from creating sale order. my requirement is to have a single bom which can be changer according to customers requirement
tahnking you

Hi,
We need to maintain Material master records for the BOM Item and for the components also.
The item category group of the BOM items should be ERLA or LUMF and the item category is NORM.
To Creating BOM item: Tcode - CS01
Specify the data for the following fields.
Material: Specify the material for which components are to be maintained.
Plant: Specify the plant of BOM item.
BOM usage: Specify the application in which BOM is maintained (5 for SD).
Alternative BOM: Specifies the sequence of a BOM within a group of BOMs.
(L = stock item N = Non-stock item)
In the overview screen specify the components which makes the main item and the corresponding quantities and save it.
Note: During sales document processing if we enter the BOM item the system automatically determines corresponding components.
I *For the BOM to be exploded in the sales document the following customizing setting is required.
A) If the item category group is ERLA the item category of the BOM is TAQ, in the definition of which we have to specify the value A (Explode single level BOM) in the structure scope.
B) If the item category group is LUMF the item category of the BOM item is TAP in the definition of which we have to specify the value A in the field structure scope.
II If the item category group is LUMF the system shows price for the components but not for the BOM item. For this the following customizing setting is required.
A) The item category of the BOM item is TAP which is not relevant for pricing, so the BOM item is not Priced.
B) The item category of the components is TAN which is relevant for pricin! g, so the components are priced
III If the item category group is ERLA the system shows price for the BOM item but not for components. For this following customizing setting is required.
A) The item category of BOM item is TAQ, which is relevant for pricing, so the BOM is priced.
B) The item category of components is TAE which is not relevant for pricing, so the components are not priced.
While creating sales document to get the list of alternative BOMs in the definition item category of BOM item we have to check the field Manual Alternative
Rewards if this helps you,

Text Determination at sales order item level (VBBP)

We use a Z text ID (Z005) at our sales order item text determination procedure, which refers to text object VBBP.
Access sequence carries only this line.
Ideally, if the text object is VBBP, the source of the text is from sales doc (like Quote to Order). Correct me if I'm wrong.
Issue:
When creating quote/sales order for configuration (variant) items, texts get automatically filled in this text id.
We verified material master, BOM master to validate the text source. however, no texts are maintained on those.
We would like to know how these are filled in automatically.
However these phantom texts are same and does not change for items.

Hi Nigesh,
Look at the text id in some other procedure like for KNVV, KNVP, KNA1 etc for customer. May be the text is flowing from customer or even material to the sales order automatically.
In this case, teh text ID and access sequence will be same in that level namelyKNVV, KNVP, KNA* etc. So you better check there and your problem will be solved.
If that is not the case, pls lemme know.

BOM Usage and Sales order BOM

Can some one bring our the difference between BOM usage in the creation of a material bom and a Sales order BOM - To be more specific, when you are creating a BOM using the tcode cs01, I get a field called BOM usage where I can select it as 5 and define it as relevant to Sales and Distribution. I can also create a BOM which is Sales order specific using CS61 tcode. what is the difference between the two? When will the bom created using CS61 explode and when will the other one explode?
Thanks for your reply in advance....

Hi
while using the material in each dept. the usage differs so for that sap provided this function. for sales bom is used only sales and also that material already exist in the plant. and mm bom the material has to procure from the some third party that all functionality will control throgh the maitaning bom usage.
further your explanation i give below info.
Text
BOM Usage
Definition
This key defines the area (such as engineering/design or production) where a BOM can be used.
Use
By setting various indicators, you can define the maximum configuration of the item status and define whether an item must be or cannot be processed in a particular area (such as production).
Examples
A material is used in the areas production and costing in a company. For each area, you maintain a separate BOM with different items:
Production BOM:
This BOM contains items that are relevant to production. These items are copied to the planned order. Dependent requirements are generated for them, and they are copied to the production order.
Costing BOM:
This BOM contains items that are relevant to determining the material costs of a product.
When you calculate production costs using a quantity structure, the system automatically determines the BOM and all the BOM items that are relevant to costing, in order to calculate manufacturing costs.
pls find the config table which will give u clear picture about bom usage.

Alternative Free Good determination in Sales order

Dear Gurus,
We activated Free Goods determination. We are maintaining condition records in Tcode VBN1. We are creating the condition records using the fields Sales org, Distribution Channel and Sales Office. Condition record specifies the free good material and its quantity for main material with specified quantity. As of now, It is working fine and it is picking up the free good material correctly at Sales order if we create line item for main material.
As per the new requirement, if the free good material is not available in the stock, it should pick up other alternative free good material for the main material. Mean to say, we want to configure free good determination where we will specify two free good materials for one main material, then system will pick up one of the free good materials for main material in Sales order.
Ex: Main material : A
1st Free good material : F1
2nd Free good material : F2
If the stock for F1 free good material is not available then system should pick up F2 free good material automatically.
I have tried to map the another Free good material for main material in the same condition record, but system is not accepting to proceed further.
Kindly suggest what I need to do, what configuration is required. Please provide your valuable inputs.
Thanks
Chandra Mouli

FYI - Neel & Chandra Mouli
Substitution strategy in Material Substitution: Reason (TCode OVRQ ) controls whether product selection should occur automatically in the background or whether the alternative materials should be offered for selection in a dialog box. So, this product selection in the background is performed on the basis of the availability check.
The substitution reasons are entered in the master records for material determination.
Kindly test & share your feedback.

Baswa

Baswa,
when you create sales order BOM through CS61 its all together new BOM specialy meant for that sales order - material combination.
To create it you can take referance of Material BOM , but there is no such functionality to restrict the componet changes or quantity changes.
The CS61 its self is meant for creating customer specific BOM , which can be all together different from Material BOM. as in many business its required that , we need to modify our existing BOM on customer request to incorporate that customer specific changes. For all other things standard BOM is there in system and its not affected by this new customer specific BOM.
If you need further help , discribe your need of creation of sales order BOM.
Hope it helps you.

Function to find quantity of a material in Open sales Order in 4.5

hi ,
is there any function to find the total quantity of a material in open sales order for an input date in 4.5
Regards

I think you may find function RV_BILLING_PRINT_VIEW helpful. This is the function used by the standard SAP report RVADIN01 to assemble all the information needed to print a Sales Order. The structure and table output by this function contain all the information in the header and line items of the Sales Order.
To watch this function in action, set a break point on this function (line 1075 of RVADIN01 in my system) and print a Sales Order (SO).
I use VF31 to print an arbitrary SO during testing.
Your company may have altered the standard print configuration for sales orders in SAP. If so, you will need to note the output type of your test Sales Order in VF31 and use Transaction V/83 to determine which program is being used to print that type of SO.

Capture u201CInstallation Chargesu201D of a material sold in Sales Order

Hi SD Gurus,
We have requirement to capture u201CInstallation Chargesu201D of a material sold in Sales Order. The charges are quantity based and shall be shown separately in sale order & invoice. This charge shall be treated as additional revenue (with separate revenue G/L Account) and shall be maintained as optional. If included as a condition type, we do not want the item totals of the materials to be affected by this condition.
In the existing pricing procedure, the material price field is made mandatory. We tried to enter it as a service line item and entered the u201CInstallation Chargesu201D with a new condition type with new revenue G/L Account. But it insists for a price for the material due the mentioned configuration.
Request your valuable suggestion in achieving this requirement.
Regards,
Vikrant

Hi,
You can achieve this functionality using the Bill of Material concept.
Create the material and its BOM. In the BOM, include the main material and the service. (Case A)
Also maintain an alternative BOM for the same material, the BOM being the material itself and nothing else. (CaseB)
Make the parent item relevant for pricing and child items not relevant for pricing
In sales order, give the main material, so the sales material and service will come.
In Case A, maintain a condition type with a reqmt routine saying that the condition will be valid only if the BOM contains the service item. Maintain the condition record. So, if the BOM contains the material and its service, this condition type will come else it will not come.
If you don't want to charge the service, replace the BOM of case A with the alternative BOM maintained for the material to go to case B.In case B, this extra condition type will not come. Hence only the price of the main material will come.
Hope this helps u

Sales order BOM

Dear Gurus,
How to create Sales order BOM ? please give me in details.
Can we use existing BOM to create sales order BOM?
Thanks & Regards
Harish

Hi Harish ,
You can not use/convert the existing BOM as sales order bom ,
To create the sales order BOM follow the below steps
1) Create the sales order
2) Go to t-code cs62
Enter the sales order , IKtem number , finished material and choose the bom usage as 5 (sales and distribution )
Enter the raw materials and required qty -
> save the bom .
