Multiple BOMs in subcontracting

Dear Expert,
We have one requirement,our client wants multiple BOMs in subcontracting PO.the scenario one finished product have many component raw materials.we can produce the finished product with raw materials.when doing subcontracting PO,when we explode BOM,we have choice of selecting of BOM,which we require.please sugest me.
Thanks in advance,
Varun

Hi,
Please check how to handle alternative BOMs in subcontracting:
Re: Bom for production order and subcontracting
Re: Alternative bom
You can have only one purchasing info record for one vendor/material/purch.org. combination that's why you can assign only one production version to it.
Based on this I think you cannot solve your requirement in standard system (selection of alternative BOM in subcontracting PO).

Multiple BoMs for Same FG and Subcontracting Vendor

Hello Gurus, I have a situation where client get job-work done for a finished good with multiple BoMs .... It is only decided at the time of creating PO when they decide which components/ child items to be used (Product Version). Even if the check for update info record is unchecked, the system don't ask for the choice 2nd time the subcontracting PO is drafted. Please guide what can be done under such circumstances.

Hi,
Please check how the alternative BOM can be determined (automatically):
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/EN/b2/fa1ed4d51d11d1a69e0000e83235d4/frameset.htm
(assign the BOM to production version (C223) >> assign the production version to info record (ME12))
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/EN/f4/7d2aea44af11d182b40000e829fbfe/frameset.htm
(lot size; selection date; production version)
Please check OSS note 458606:
1. Question
You work with production versions for selecting bill of material alternatives. How are they determined for SC purchase requisitions or SC purchase orders?
Answer:
Purchase Orders:
In purchasing, the production versions are assigned in the subcontracting purchasing info record. When you create an SC purchase order, the system determines the SC purchasing info record from the combination of vendor and material, and reads the production version. This is then included in the document. It is not possible to manually change the production version in the SC purchase order.
If you create the SC purchase order with reference to an SC purchase requisition, the system checks whether the production version from the SC purchase requisition matches the version determined from the SC purchase order.
If the production verions differ, the system displays a dialog box and the user can decide whether the production version from the SC purchase requisition is to be transferred or whether the BOM is exploded using the newly determined production version from the SC purchasing info record.
A selection of the production versions by date or similar is not available in purchasing.

Scenario : 1 SC Vendor; 1 Finished Good; Multiple BoM

Hi Experts .... Client have a situation where they have multiple BOMs for 1 Item and they send the different Raw Materials to One Subcontracting vendor for Job-Work processing.
Is there any way to enable the selection of BoM at the time of creating Sub-Contracting PO ???

Thx for your valuable comments Prashant, but the problem is how to choose which BOM to select ... is there any setting/ configuration
I tried Product Version concept ... but that too is not consistent .. info record gets updated somehow and the choice for Product version also doesn't come after making 1 PO

LTP in MULTIPLE BOM scenario

Hi friends,
Please suggest for this following issue which is urgent one
Client Have 2 plants: 2010-PRODUCTIONM PLANT ( MONTHLYROLLING PLAN)
                                    2020- WAREHOUSE PLANT (ANNUAL SALES PLANNING )
Have 2 type of planning.
1. Annual Sales planning      Infor structure S501 and Planning type Z501 are used.
2. Monthly rolling planning.     Infor structure S502 and Planning type Z502 are used
PROBLEM IN
Annual sale planning- PLANT 2020
Using T code MC94 and planning type Z502, the final sales plan is recorded for all material in the plant 2020 for the active version A00.
After the data is saved it is transferred to the Demand management using PIR_SP_FM schedule batch job using the T codes MC8E for selection and MC8G for execution
Once the data is transferred to demand management long term planning run is executed using MS01 T code for the planning scenario 001
The problem we have is in this 001 planning scenario. What we have setup at present is to select the existing BOM which is used in the normal MRP run. But the FMCG sector requires to different BOMs and different recipes.
NB: client needs to run long term planning run for plant2020 with planning scenario 001 .
while creating the PIRS they want to go for alternative BOM and RECIPES(ROUTING ) so that they can plan according to the change in requirement.In current scenario they use single BOM and single recipe.
    Problem lies as 2020 plant is only warehouse plant . It does not have any BOM and Recipe in it. so how planning run will be executed for annual sales plan with the explosion of BOM in this plant and the alternatives will be chosen In A multiple BOM and Recipe scenario WHICH NOW CLIENT WANTS TO SWITCH OVER.Client uses MS04 TCODE for the over view of stock in LTP where the change should reflect
THANKS AND REGARDS,
omkar

hi,
Bom selection process in LTP works similar to operational planning, i.e it is based on lot size and date.
Reward if useful.

BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2 - not working for multiple BOM

Hi -
I am using BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2 function module to create sales order with multiple material. If more than one BOM materials are passed to the FM,this FM is giving error and not creating sales order. I have to pass multiple BOM to the FM and it should create sales order and expand the BOM to its components also.
Can anybody help on this.
An example will be good.
thanks

Planning for product using multiple bom and multiple recipe involving SOP

Hi friends,
The problem. Currently we have maintained single BOM and single recipe (The BOM and Recipe used for MRP) for long term planning run. The FMCG sector of Client requested to have multiple BOMs and multiple recipes in the long term planning run. I.e. The planning is done quarterly and they wanted to use different BOMs and Different recipes for each quarter. But since the existing system has configured to use a single BOM and a single recipe we have a problem to use the long term planning run with the current setups.The problem we have is in this 001 planning scenario.
appreciate if you can help me how to accommodate multiple BOMs and recepis in the long term planning run.
thanks and regards

HI Mr. Ready,
We create PIR though a submit Job and in this case how to mention the production version while creating PIRs . Also if I am creating PIR through MD61 how to record the version.
Please advice.

To display multiple BOMS by selection

I'm trying to avoid havig to create a report to collectively display multiple BOMS by selection (eg MRP controller, group of header materials etc) to satisfy the following:
- collective display
- multi-level display (indented)
- factor scrap, giving component qtys as per base qty of BOM header
Trans CS11 provides this info, only on an individual BOM basis.

Hi,
Can explain your query a bit more in brief?
Thanks

How to create multiple BOM of same parent item?

Hi All,
Please guide me, How to create multiple BOM of same parent item? I tried but system throws a message as same Parent Item already exist in the table. I am afraid if system supports this functionality or not?

Hi,
You are welcome.......
Well the exact process would be as I mentioned in my previous post.
1. Create the BOM for an item
2. Choose this item in the Production Order
3. Then in this Production order you can change/ delete/ add whichever item you want .
OR
If all the child items are completely different from the original BOM then you can use the Special Type BOM in which you can always create the BOM while creating the Production Order itself. There is no standard BOM here.

Multiple bom

Dear all, I want a clarification while working with Multiple Bom.I tried to explode a mulltiple bom with the help of Structure scope "B" at item category.When i gave item category group as LUMF for both BOMS in Multiple bom it reflects as item category for Main Bom is TAP, sub item is Tan and Item category for second Bom is Tan and item category for sub items in the Second Bom are TANN,TANN which is a free item.I checked at VOV4, there i find that ORLUMFTAN-->TANN.I want to know why it is taking as TANN(Free item).Pls, let me know.
Thanks.
Aditya.

Hi,
You have to maintatin correct item category determination for BOM items. When you are doing that u should give item category for sub items as TAE not TANN. U just change the TANN to TAE and try to exploid BOM once again and check the results.

Multiple BOM and Variant BOM

Hi Gurus
Just a small question...
Can we change the technical type of the BOM from V(Variant) to M(Multiple).
As that field is always grayed out in editing mode (CS02).
If we can change, how ??
Thanks Vineet

Dear Vineet,
If a product has more than more than one alternative BOM(more than one BOM for the same BOM
usage) for that products under the BOM header you will be able to see the technical type as M -
Multiple BOM.
You cannot change this.
variant BOM
Production Planning and Control (PP)
A combination of a number of bills of material that lets you describe a product, or several products that have a lot of identical parts.
The variant BOM describes each object completely, for example, the product "lamp." Each variant BOM contains all the components. This type of BOM is not configurable.
Procedure
The system allocates technical types:
according to the number of alternative BOMs
When you create the first alternative for a BOM, the technical type is not yet defined. If you extend the BOM by creating an alternative, the system automatically assigns the technical type multiple BOM.
according to the transaction
If you create a BOM using the Create variant of... function, the system assigns the technical type variant BOM. After this, you can no longer create alternatives for the BOM.

Subcontracting multiple BoM levels for Project Stock

Hi,
We are an engineer / make-to-order manufacturer, so we use a lot of "individual" type materials (instead of collective). We are trying to subcontract several BoM levels of work to different vendors, and we are seeing many false requirements.
So we have something like this (this is all in project / wbs element stock):
Make hereSubcontract Requisition
Make hereRaw material
Subcontract Purchase OrderMake here
Raw material
Raw material
Make hereRaw material
The subcontracting items are driving additional false MRP requirements (planned orders and purchase requisitions) for all the raw materials under them.
I figured out how to fix the subcontract on level 3 by transferring the HALB material from project stock to unrestricted stock (411Q), then transferring it to subcontract stock (541) (Is there a better way to do this? Now I can't see my project-specific stock line for that item). But, while that purchase order is still open, there's nothing I can transfer to make the extra, false requirements disappear. Also, I am getting an MRP exception telling me to cancel the PO because it doesn't see the dependent requirement for the subcontract requisition above it.
Does this question make sense? How can we fix it? I need to get that subcontract requisition to see that its material will come from the subcontract purchase order.
Thanks!
Timothy

Hi All,
Any thoughts or ideas?
Thanks very much,
Timothy

Multiple BOM Explosion in MD04 for the same material

Dear PP Gurus,
Scenario is make to order. BOM is created for production usage (1) & sales usage (5) for a Header material. Routing also exists for the same.
Once i run MRP at plant level or material level after creating sales order , BOM is expoded multiple times i.e. 3- 4 times but proposals ( planned orders) are created as per requirements.But BOM explosion when we click on show overview tree is happening multiple times which should not happen.
Our client business is not getting hampered by this but still he doesnt want explosion multiple times and to be precise it should not happen.
Can anyone pls. throw some light on this .
Thanks in advance . Answers will be rewarded for sure.
regards,
Nagraj Vasmate

Hello Nagraj,
In MD04, On overview tree, it explodes all possible BOM for the header material.
System will explode all valid BOM's with usage 5 and 1 for that specific material.

BOM in Subcontracting ??

Hii
In subcontractin PO , its must to have BOM for finished material ..??
Without BOM can we create Subcontracting PO???
Thanks

no it is not possible.
BOM is a required for sub contracting.
At BOM you need to maintain at least one raw material because to make any finished good or semifinished good at least one raw material is required.
you need to maintain fresh PO for sub contracting.

Alternative Bom in Subcontracting Purchase Order

Hi Friends,
Can you suggest me how to pick alternative Bom in a Subcontracting Purchase Order.
Rgds, Krishan Raheja.

create the production version and assign that to sub contracting inforecord and system will pick based on the production version assigned to info record
Production Version
Key which determines the various production techniques according to which
     a material can be manufactured.
The production version determines the following:
     o the BOM alternative for a BOM explosion
     o the task list type, the task list group and the task list group
        counter for allocation to task lists
     o lot-size restrictions for repetitive manufacturing
