Modifying a component of a BOM

I have a Production Type Bill of Materials. It has been produced, released and receipted into Inventory and now sold. I will not be building anymore of this BOM and the component items will no longer be purchased or sold themselves. However, because they are in the definition of the BOM, the system does not allow me to modify the items, giving me an error message, Cannot change an item that is a component of another item. Is there anything I can do to be able to flag the component items as NoSell or No Purchase. I don not want them available to be sold or purchased on their own.

Hi Christian,
First remove the BOM of the item and then try to customize the settings in item master.

Thanks a lot

Hi,
SAP Standard will allow u only 3 decimal palces.
So do one thing increase the base quantity of header material so it can fullfill you're requirement..
EX: in bom you have given like for one FERT material you want RAW material 1.1234..normal in this sap std will allow only up to
1.123 only...
For this in the BOM of FERT material header data PUT base Quantity 100 so that you can put youre RAW material Quantity as
112.23.

Mass change in component Scrap % in BOM

Hi Guru,
Can someone explain me the process of mass change in component scrap % in BOM ? I have to make zero coponent scrap % in BOM for all materials.

Dear Vikash,
Check with t-code CEWB
for this you need to define work area in OP77

Can we dynamically modify the Component Hierarchy?

Is it possible to modify the component hierarchy in JSF when making an Ajax call to the server for information?
I am interested in using Ajax with JSF to update the UI incrementally as needed.
As an example, imagine a phone book which starts with a list of names. When one clicks on a name, Ajax is used to get the data for that name (i.e., address, phone numbers, etc), and the data is then returned to the client and inserted into the DOM in the client browser under the approprtiate user. This information could be editable. Clearly, as part of this process, I would like the component hierarchy in JSF updated with the new data, also.
I konw that we could do a complete postback of the entire page plus the new data, and then diff it out on the client (as per the methods outlined by Jacobi and Fallows in Pro JSF and Ajax: Building Rich Internet Components). However, I am wondering if it is possible to update the Component Hierarchy with the new components associated with the new data during the Ajax call, so that we can focus our Ajax request on the needed data only, rather than having to regenerate the entire page.

Hi wua22,
For my case, I found that if an attribute called "userPassword" is added in the Schema Manager, after running the above codes which I quoted, it seems that nothing changes since next time when you log on, it can only be authenticated using the old password. However, in this case, actually, the change was made in the ADDED attribute, "userPassword". You'll find where the change made if you have the admin right to check the properties of the users' account using ConsoleOne (or similar tools).
In addtion, for the exception I encountered in my case, I found that everythings go normally if that ADDED attribute "userPassword" is deleted. So, this time, it's the setting in my LDAP server which caused the problem, but not the programming error.
BTW, someone suggested that using UnicodePwd attribute, instead of the userPassword for updating one's password. This UnicodePwd attribute is unicode converted. I've not tried on that actually, but will at a later time.
Hope that helps to you.

Add component to 200+ BOMs

Hi,
I want to add a single component to over 200 BOMs. Is there any mass change transaction ? I tried the CEWB but cant seem to figure out how to use it to add a single component to many BOMs.
Thanks

GS,
1. CEWB cannot be used to mass add a Components to Multiple Material BOMS.
CS20 if none of the BOM components are common for all 200, may be you can try to group them based on common materials and then try to run CS20 multiple times to complete your task.
Final option is as described earlier LSMW and BDC.

Modifying the component tree in FacesListener

Hi,
I want to modify the component tree of every page that is accessed within my JSF application. For example, say I want to remove one component(id is known) from every page that is accessed. Obviously, I don't want to edit the page manually.
I wrote and configured a FacesListener which will be executed during the RESTORE_VIEW phase. In the afterPhase() method, I get the view root from FacesContext. I traverse down to the component with the given Id and remove it from its parents child list. But it doesn't get removed. The component is rendered. Even trying to chage its value or adding a new component doesn't work. Basically any modification done to the tree after the RESTORE_VIEW phase in the FacesListener is not reflected in the rendered output.
Is it the right phase to modify the view?
Thanks,
Siva

There is a typo in my question. I mean PhaseListener not FacesListener.

Change quantity of a component in a BOM created through SDK

I am creating AR Invoices which are based on Sales Orders through SDK. These SO have a BOM which has only 1 component, when I create a AR Invoice off of these SO I have to be able to change the quantity which is delivered. How do I specify that I am changing the quantity of the component and not the amount of the Parent?
thx,
Richard

Owen,
If you go to Document Settings and change the selection to Price and Total for Parent Item Only, when you choose this BOM which is a Sales Item, you can modify the quantity of the Child Item and it does not affect the Parent Items price or quantity.
This is what I am trying to accomplisg through the SDK, but it seems all I can insert is the Parent Item in the Marketing Document, how can I alter the Child quantity?
thx,
Richard

Purchase Order With Sub Item Component List for BOM material..??

Hi MM Experts,
We want to create PO with a component list that should be appears under the main item.
The component list is a mterial BOM.
Ex:- bom MATERIAL - CATALOG1 (Non Stock Materials)
COMPONENT 1 :-ABCD
COMPONENT 2 :- XYZ.
WHEN I ENTER THE BOM MATERIAL:- CATALOG1 IN /ME21N . Higher-Level Item-
Automatically botom line should be appear component 1 , 2 as a Sub Item.
how to configur this issue..?? Its a standard Ponot Subcontract
Thanks,
NAR.

Hi!
If you have correctly maintained the BOM in CS01, make sure that in ME21N you enter "L" as the item category, and then, in the field "material", enter the finished product (the header material in your BOM). Then, enter all other required fields.
When all mandatory data has been completed in ME21N, go to the "Material Data" tab. Here you will see an icon named "Components". If you click this icon, the materials in your BOM will be listed here.
So, please, do not expect the BOM to be displayed with mother and daugther segments in the item overview of ME21N. Instead, consider that you will only be able to see the components if you click the "Components" icon under the "Material Data" tab at item detail level.
I hope this helps!

Deleted Component appearing in BOM

Dear Guru's,
I m facing a strange situation where i have a BOM of material with one component and then i came to knw that,that material is not required any more so i removed the component and deleted the BOM.
But when i am running the MRP it is showing the deleted component,i am not able to understand hw it is happening.
Kindly throw some light on this.
With Regards.

check in md04 of that bom component, is there any dependent requirement.May be mrp for that header material
was carried out earlier before your bom change and later you have run mrp for components individually.
Do one thing run mrp - single item multi level for your header material again with planing mode 3 - delete and recreate planning data.

Dhaval

Mass component change in BOM

hi
i want to mass change some components in BOM. For example in the BOM i have 10 components. Now i want to change 5 components in the BOM
I have around 500 FG How to do that? Is it possible in LSMW?. or CS20?

It is better to go for getting a BDC developed for all the mass changes in the BOM.
Using CS20 you can only change a single component and replace with a new material. I think BDC is the best alternative.
Hope this helps you.

Component unit in BOM

Hi ,
I have a product whose base unit is KG. In the bill of material we are maintaining as G(because qty is very less).
When i run the MRP this quantity is getting rounded to 1.0.
What do i need to check .
Regards
ShankarR

Normally the base UoM is the lowest measurable unit. Since you have maintained KG for this, give this a try in your sandbox to check if it works in your business context.
For the BOM header maintain a base unit say as 1000 or 10,000 then in the component for this material which is maintained in grams increase the qty in relation to the base qty. which you have maintained for the header.
Now load demand & check if it meets your need.

Component determination in BOM

Hello,
I have to include a procedure in a BOM component to determine if that component must be selected or not according to a caracteristic but the option is not enabled in the BOM item.
Does anybody know if it is a customizing issue and if yer, where to custimize it?
Thanks
Laura

Laura,
In the BOM, you can go and define the dependency for that BOM material based on the characteristic value.
Thanks

Component Substitution in BOM

Hello,
I have some problem, my User have a material substitution in BOM component of my Finished Goods 25520. the Component material 10001520 was declared to be replaced by component material 10002520 but the effective date will be on September 7, 2008.
here come the problem, we made a production order for meterial 25520 on the date August 19, 2008. and made confirmation. when we check in the Prodcution order component Overview both the material 10001520 and 10002520 was pick up by the order and when examine closely material 10002520 (this is the one to be the substitute for 10001520 in september 7, 2008) it has zero req qty but it's backflushed indicator was tick, and when see the confirmation made to the order it has an error. since this material must not be pick by the order when the BOM exploded since this material is not yet effective in the BOM as desired.
why this happen?
please help, is am not clear on my description, please let me know.
thanks
Ryan

Hello Expert,
In CS11,
Material: 25520
Plant: 0160
BOM Usage: 1
Alternate BOM: 01
I see the following:
10001520 Valid from (14.10.2008) Valid to (05.05.2008)
10001520 Valid from (14.05.2008) Valid to (07.09.2008)
10002520 Valid from (07.09.2008) Valid to (31.12.9999)
same amount, this was the series of bom component in CS11.
Please give your findings.
Thanks
