MM and BOM

Hi,
I have a doubt in MM and BOM, If I have a material A and this one is sometimes In House and sometimes is in Subcontract, can I have 2 BOM´s and choose in some field in MM.
Material A= C+ B
Material A: MM->F/SM->BOM 1->IR
Material A:MM -> E(In house)->BOM 2->Routing
Material C: F/SM
Material B: E In house
Is possible?
My problem is, i have to change often the BOM because the material change: in house to Subcontract and Subcontract to In house every week.
Thank´s
Lecticia

Hi,
For this, you can use Production Version Method
Production version can be maintained in the material master(MRP 4) view
Click on production version,you will get the pop up screen enter 3/4 digit version no &description
Click on details button
here give the routing(under planing data) & BOM information(under Bill of material)
then click on check button to verify whether the entered data are consistent
You can also maintain in C223 tcode
If the production order is created by converting from planned order, system will auto select the PV. If you create manually then it will put a pop up box. Alternatively you can change the PV in the planned order.

Subcontracing charges and BOM structure.

Dear All,
In the subcontracting scenaro , Subcontracting charges does't depends neither on UOM of the material nor conversion factor is fixed of Material Base UOM with Pricing unit .
for example , price depends upon the operation performd on sheet. If sheet is to be cutted into many peices , so on this sheet 5 operations has to be performed and price is fixed operation wise.
Now confusion is
1.)how to give price in the subcontracting PO.
2.) and what should be BOM structure in this scenario.
Please suggest.
Thanks & Regards
Nitin Chhabra

I assume from your question that you do not know the subcontractor price when you place the purchase order. Based on this your subcontractor info record and BOM should reflect "typical values". On placing the order you will need to find out the exact amount of material to be issued and manually adjust the purchase order BOM, then allow enough tolerance to except the variance in quantity received and invoice value.

Difference between Free goods and BOM (ERLA)

Hi,
Could any body throw some light on the Difference between Free goods and BOM(ERLA) to clarify my weired thought.
AS of what i know is Free goods is 1:1 ratio.
The main item will be prices and sub item will be free .
Than same thing is also With BOM (ERLA)
Regards,
Venksys

Hi Venksys
Please note as given below :
Free Goods : This function allows you to offer your customers a product free of charge in the form of free goods when a certain quantity of products is ordered. Free goods is a kind of quantity discount, and is granted in the form of a goods delivery that is free of charge when a certain quantity is purchased. There are Two types of free goods :
1.Inclusive : The customer only pays for part of the goods ordered. The rest of the products are provided at no extra cost. For example, a customer orders for 3 bottels but pays for 2 bottels and 1 is supplied free .
2.Exclusive - The customer pays for the goods ordered, and also receives additional products for free. The materials delivered as free goods will not be the same as that of ordered onces. For examples customer orders 5 bottels , but will receive 1 Bottle opener free.
BOM : It consists of 2 or more items combined and sold as an package : Example : Combination of 1 Tooth paste + 1 tooth brush packed as BOM.
The Higher level Material ( BOM) is not relevant for pricing but relevant for picking : The tooth paste and brush is relevant for pricing and also can be sold independently : The Item cat group of the Header BOM material will be ERLA and for Tooth paste and brush material the Item category group will have TAN.

Q4_How to manage software material and BOM in SAP_High-tech Industry PLM Implementation Issues

Hello,
We are implementing SAP PLM for a high-tech company which designs and manufactures mobile phones (ODM). Since we are new in PLM consulting and we are facing with some implementation difficulties, we are looking for some solutions here.
Question 4: How to manage software material and BOM in SAP?
Currently, software are not managed as material in the BOM. How to manage software material in PLM, can anyone help us with some suggestions.
Question 5: PADS integration with PLM.
Currently, customer is using Pro/E and PADS to design their product. SAP has already provided standard interface for Pro/E integration. But for PADS, there is no such interface. Because of the specialization of electrical components managed in PADS, different from structural parts in Pro/E, how to transfer them between PLM system and manage them in the PLM system has become an difficulty. We will appreciate a lot if anyone can share us with some successful solutions.

Hi,
software, typically a released version of software, is typically managed as a normal material master, and a related document with the code as a package (e.g. ZIP), if really needed.
Software in development is managed typically with a dedicated Software Configuration Management tool like Rational ClearCase, Subversion, MKS Integrity, ....

How to create items and BOMs using web services

Hi All,
I need to create, change and read Items and BOMs through web services (using SOA Gateway, right). I found this one here: "Process Item (convenience wrapper version)" or "Process Item" within
Internal Name     EGO_ITEM_PUB
Type               PL/SQL
Product          Advanced Product Catalog
Status          Active
Business Entity     Catalog Item
Right now, I don't know how to use it. If somebody has a simple example to create a single item, this would be perfect! Which one would be the right one to read detailed information about an existing item?
The second object I need to maintain (create, change and read) is BOM. Which API can I use here?
btw: I use EBS 12.1.1 on windows.
Many thanks,
Konrad

Hi!
Thanks for your quick answer but unfortunately, I must admit that I'm an absolute beginner with Oracle and EBS and so things like:
Enable trace and generate the tkprof file or open the form using forms builder to get the name of the API used in thta screen.or
Please check e-trm site for your question do not help me to much :-(
Any other advice?

Multiple routing and BOM

Hai gurus,
1) My client manufacture whisky using process industry scenario.
2) They produce whisky in bottling unit using either Auto line 1 or Auto line 2( work center)
3) Also they select the BOM 1 or BOM 2( Old bottle or New Bottle) based on the availability.
4) So for selection of BOM i had created the production version using old and new bottle.
5) How to select the routing as it will be known only while converting planned orde to process order.
6) Actually i am selecting the BOM1 or BOM2(old or new bottle) based on the availability during partial conversion of
planned order to process order or by doing read pp master.
7) If that is case how to select the routing Auto line 1 or 2)while converting planned order to process order as it will known only on the begining of that day production.
waiting for the positive reply
regards,
sekar chand

Hai Kumar,
Thanks for you reply.
In Production Version we define the selection of BOM1 or BOM2( old or new bottle) based on the availability.
But the work center Auto line 1 may be used under BOM 1 and BOM2 based on the capacity or avialbility of the line
or Auto line 2 may be used under BOM 1 and BOM 2 based on the availabilty of the line.
It that is the case how to create Production version and select the same, for work center and BOM
waiting for the positive reply.

sekar chand

Sales BOM and BOM

Hi All,
I was hoping someone could give me some information about Sales BOM and BOM. How do they affect FI and or CO. If anyone has any links or documents that i read about them id really appreciate them too.
Thanks in advance,
Noman

Noman plesae read below from a previous thread
Points will be appreciated
Routing should define the production process, how to build the product from the BOM, so it is normal to have a routing having one or more operations each of which is assigned to a work center. Each workcenter can be assigned to a cost center and may have different types of activities that can be performed, each of which might have a different price at that cost center. This is how the routing, and hence the production order that has the routing will be costed when work is confirmed at the workcenter level, for the value added.
Material costs can be costed per BOM (target) and based on actual consumption (actual cost). Apart from these, it is possible to have overheads defined too.
Normally you should have a routing for the cost estimate with quantity structure. You can define one single dummy routing and assign it to any number of products, if you don't need it for any real work tracking (in case of a simple manufacturing process like kitting). That would significantly reduce your master data maintenance efforts.

Re: Bom and Routing
Posted: Mar 9, 2007 8:19 AM    in response to: Zaid M. Azam       Reply
Hi,
Basically As you are aware BOM contains child parts of the parent material.
Routing defines how you are going to produce. ie operations,
If routing has say 3 operation steps you will define in the operation details where u will produce (work center) and time taken for each operation. Also you can maintain tools(PRT) for those operation and inspection datas(inspection time).
Next details in work center(which you are assigning in operation.In work center you will maintain the link between activity type and cost center. Activity type is for example labour hour. In costing KP26 transaction a link will be established for activity type and cost center and corresponding cost.
If you are using work center X having activity cost as 100 Rs/Hour. The system will calculate depending upon the time mentioned while confimation the cost.
Hope this will help how routing,BOM and cost are linked.
Please award points if this is really helpful

Plz help me ,Difference between BOM and BOM

i am confused with these two terms BOM - Bill of material and BOM - Bill of manufacturing, Is there any difference in between these to terms or both are some. Plz let me know as early as possible.
Thanks for your time.
suresh arya

Bill of Material is nothing but list of Raw materials used for to get a finished Material.
Bill of Manufacturing is nothing but the cost of the Manufacturing include all overheads.
i think u got answer
If it is clear for u assign points

Material and BOM

hi,experts,
here is my problem , sometimes ,the standard BOM has been changed ,for example ,add a new material to the BOM,but the BOM of some production order hasn't been changed ,so ,how to find out the production orders which include the new material ?
thanks
Jarod

Dear,
If you use the ECM- Engineering change management then it is possible to track the changes in BOm and Production order with OCM will given the component history.
Other wise you have to check in Production order Component over view you will get details of component.
Or you can check in USE table RESB with RSNUM of AUFK-AUFNR
or From CAUFV table u can get the material Number and the Plant for the coresponding PO number. and u can pass these Mat.no, Plant and BOM usage as '1'.
or go to these FMs:
1. CO_DB_HEADER_READ
2. CO_SF_AFPO_READ
Hope this will helpful.

Sales set in Retail and BOM explosion in sales order

Greetings.
I configured a sales set that contains variants of generic articles and also unique articles as follows:
Sales set: distinct code, LUMF - item category group, gets TAQ item categ in SO; it contains:
- Var 1 of article X, distinct code, NORM, gets TAE in SO and mat. nr. and HL item is greyed out in SO
- Var 1 of article Y, distinct code, NORM, gets TAE in SO and mat. nr. and HL item is greyed out in SO
- unique article Z, distinct code, NORM, gets TAE in SO and mat. nr. and HL item are NOT greyed out in SO
as a result changing Z with whatever different article is possible.
Also the individual quantities for the components are editable: I was expecting to be able to modify ONLY the set's quantity and see the components multiply accordingly but iti is not the case.
You can download a picture from [HERE|http://fbx.ro/5j87odrxexs3s7it]
My question is: what settings are needed to have inactive/grayed out quantity, material number and HL item for the components of the sales set and why do I get a different behavior between a unique material compared with a variant ?
Thank you in advance.
Best regards.
Edited by: Enache Catalin on Jan 21, 2009 4:25 PM - add picture

Thank you for your patience.
The link would have revealed that there is no visible difference between SO's made with ERLA and LUMF header material , in both the user can modify quantities, item category, plant for ALL subitems and measurment unit plus Higher Level Item ONLY for unique items(why? that was my secondary question).
Nevertheless I tried to follow your steps and forth is what I found:
- working in Retail I didn't use CS01 for creating the BOM; instead I defined the structure(mat. codes and quantities) directly in header material (sales set - 10 material category - in my case). I could however open with CS02 the right BOM for my sales set but only if I don't mention the plant.
- further I used CS01 and added the delivering plant this time-> no result, the subitems can still be modified as described above...
I must add that I tried to use for sales set both KMAT and TRGO articles...and it happens the same.
Best regards.
Catalin.

UTF-8 encoding and BOM

I'm reading in a file that's encoded in UTF-8 and begins with the byte-order mark of EF BB BF. I'm curious to know why a byte-order mark is needed for something encoded in UTF-8, because aren't BOMs only used to figure out endianness, which isn't an issue with UTF-8 as some tutorials I've seen say. But then again, UTF-8 can use multiple bytes to specify a character, in which case endianness does matter, right?
My question is therefore whether endianness matters with UTF-8?
Also, at the online converter at the URL http://macchiato.com/unicode/convert.html, why can you convert from FE FF in UTF-16 to EF BB BF in UTF-8, but cannot do the conversion in the opposite way? Is it a problem with the converter, or something to do with the encodings themselves?
Thanks.

http://www.unicode.org/faq/utf_bom.html#25
As for that URL, not likely that anyone here would know what's wrong with it. Could be that it doesn't assume UTF-8 will have a BOM, as it's not needed anyway, so doesn't treat it as such and converts it as if they were regular characters.
