Order BOM process- material vairant for configurable assembly

Hi,
I am working on multi-level material variants with order BOM process. The configurable header material and assembly should be
replaced by material variants after configuration is done. I configured the multi-level BOM explosion at sales order. After I configured the assembly, I executed type matching and a material variant for assembly was found. But the system didn't replace
configurable assembly with material variant automatically and I couldn't find any functionality to carry out replacement. The header material was replaced by material variant in sales order entry. However, while I tried to carried out technical processing to
create order BOM (CU51), the error message shows that I couldn't create order BOM due to the header material has been replaced
with material variant. Does anyone have experience at multi-level material variants with order BOM process? Please kindly help.
Thanks.
B. Regards,
Nancy

Hi ,
Could you pls explain the issue bit more clearly, As per my understanding you are using order BOM with variant configuration
Is it correct ?
Check the configuration profile settings ( CU41 ) , did you selected the order BOM radio button

Can i create production order using process material ?

Dear All.
Please help me.
I want to create production order using process material (material type is PROC).
For may knowledge, process order is standard for the process material, but my customer want to use the PP module for the process material.
But I cant convert the planned order of precess material to production order in MD05.
The system message is "System does not support planned orders for process materials."
The followings are my test steps.
1. Master Creation
      - Material Master, BOM, ROUTING
In standard, process material (Material Type : PROC) need creation of master recipe. But due to my clients need (Using production order
           for the process material), I create the work center and ROUTING
2. DM Creation
      - In MD61, I create the planned independent requirement (Type : LSF)
3. Planned order creation for the process material using MRP
      - In MD01, I run the total MRP, the the planned order is created.
        It's order type is "LA"
4. Converting the planned order to Production Order
      - In this step, the system give the error "System does not support planned orders for process materials."
         and can not do anything.
I want to know that the above case is possible, and how.
Please Help meu2026..

Hi
First of if yur want to create production order or process order why do you go for material type :PROC.
you can create the same material as FERT & go ahead.
I do not understand the logic to select the material type as PROC.
Pl. go through SAP library where PROC is used.

Order BOM - get material valuation to higher level item

Hi,
Is it somehow possible to get the values from condition type VPRS (containing the material valuation price) from underlying items to the top level item of an sales order bom.
Example
0010 MATNR A
0020 MATNR B higher level item : 0010 / vprs = 100
0030 MATNR C higher level item : 0020 / vprs = 200
--> then we would like to define a condition type ZPRS that contains the sum of the underlying items = 300
Any suggestions on this ?
with regards

Omkar,
Here you would need to explode the BOM level by level and build the output table in each step. IF you explode the BOM multilevel at the start, you can not achive reverse mapping easily .
Also I will see even CS11 layput will work for your requirement. If it works, copy e CS11 logic in Z program and upgrade it for operations.

Copy Order Bom in Two-Step Variant Configuration

Dear Community,
In Multilevel VC Order Bom Scenario. Configuration is made for the first level by sales department, then further levels are configurated by Technical Department.
If the sales document is a quotation and then we want to create de sales order with reference to the quotation, only the configuration for the first level is getting copied. All the characteristics of the lower level configurable materials appear in blank, as well as selected class items in quotation as well as manually added components.
Is there a way to copy the whole order bom of the original document or the characteristics value for every level?
Thank you
Sebastián Ligueros

Hi Rahul,
Basically , an order bom doesnot explode therefore you cannot configure any of the components.Please review note 303446
By changing the default value of the variable GV_FORCE_BOM_EXPLOSION_ASL in Include LCUKOFBE, you can force the explosion of the order BOM in the sales order.As a result, subordinate items of the order BOM are configured provided that these items were not fixed.I
Therefore please set this variable GV_FORCE_BOM_EXPLOSION_ASL to X and retest,
Thanks

How to include field Internal order in the material master for SD orders

Hello,
I would like to know how I can bring the field "Internal Order" to the material master, so I can create materials with assignments to internal orders.
We want to create Sales Orders where when we enter on order item with a material, the internal order is derived automatically from the material master.
Thank you in advance!
Jose Eximeno

Hello,
I am not familiar with the field "product attributes" in relation with entering the field "internal order"...
Could you be a little more specific on how product attributes can be used to enter the internal order number in the material master?
Best regards,
Jose

Creation of Sale Order for configurable material with availability check.

Hi,
We have a scenario in which the material is configurable. The configurable material (X) has few variants (Ex: X1, X2, X3, X4, X5). While booking the sale order, we use the material number (X).
Further, the material planning is done for the variants X1, X2, X3, X4, X5. The standard variants are planned for production in advance.
1.     While booking the sale order, we want the availability check of the stock (type matching to happen). What needs to be done in configuration?
2.     While booking the sale order, there is a possibility that the configuration selected will not match with any of the standard variants due to some additional requirements of the optional features, in such cases how to link the standard variants to the sale order & create requirement for additional requirements.
Regards,
Umesh

Hi Umesh,
           1.Create material master for configurable material and variants in mm01.
           2.Maintain BOM for the configurable material in CS01
           3. Configur the variant configuration steps
              a. Create charecteristics T.code CT04
              b. Create values and assign classes
              c. assign the values to charecteristics
              d . Maitain dependence T.code CU01
              e.create configuration profile t.code CU41
              f.stimulate the configuration profile.
4. Do the availability check configuration through this path
IMG --> Sales and distribution > Basic functions ,> Availabilty check and Transfer of requirements.
5. Maintain the Availbility check field and MRP views in the material masters other wise you sit with PP people and do that
I hope it will help you

Configured material BOM table details requried for component list

Hi PLM Experts,
      As per the client requirement, we need to activate one sales condition type based on Super BOM components list. To define a logic for the above requirement, to list out the component we checked in STPO Table and in this table its appearing only the phantham materials not the real BOM of the component is appearing.
    So can you please suggest the table name where i can find the Bill Of Material of my Finished Product (Configured material) in the Table level.
Warm Regards.
Velmurugan P

Thanks Ajit.
But the problem still persist. The tables you have listed will suits for regular BOM compoents list. But we want to know the Table / procedure details in case of Configured material BOM details. Because for configured materials the BOM will be determined during sales order (Planned order) only.
    This BOM of configured material won't get stored in the table you have listed. As per our requirement we are looking for table details where we can list out the components list to perform the additional charges in the sales order based on BOM.
Warm Regards,
VEL

Order BoM Configuration

In our business we use multi level configuration, as a result, when we use CU51 to manage Engineering to Order details on Sales Order BoM the lower level configuration is part of the CU51 activities.
When we complete any actions in CU51 and save the order BoM, the lower level configuration is recreated on the date the order BoM work was saved.
Example:
Parent Material A and Child Material B - both configurable.
When an order is created for A on 01/01/14 the configuration for the A and B is saved in order change documents for each material with a creation date of 01/01/14.
Engineer completes Order BoM work 01/03/14 on material A, when Order BoM is saved the lower level configuration obtains new set of change documents for the configuration with a creation date of 01/03/14.
Any subsequent changes made using Order BoM result in the configuration being re-created with new documents.
Is there IMG settings or user exits or anything else that could possibly be used to keep the original date or use the date from CU51 initial screen?

Thank you for replies,
I checked it, in CU41order BOM was selected, it was configured the fert materials in MRP 3 VIEW, was also assigned the relation in CS40.
Still in CU51, I am not able to enter into sales order BOM. The error was - Order BOM processing not possible - owner MARC not allowed.
Here I am having 10 FG variants and 1 KMAT material, during sales order creation KMAT material will be repleced by FG variant by variant matching.
With respect to SD module TAN - item category was selected.
What about TAC, is there any diiference.
Or is it any settings I have to maintain.

Settings for order bom

Dear All,
Can anyone tell me setting for order bom so that the order BOM is exploded in sales order and MRP can be carried out on this BOM
Regards
Prashant

Hi,
Pls. find the details of Maintaining an Order BOM without Variant Configuration as below :
Create an Order BOM :
Prerequisites:
You have entered the sales order for which you want to create the order BOM.
Procedure:
1.Choose Logistics ® Production ® Master data ® Bills of material ® Bill of material ® Order BOM ® Create.
The Create Order BOM: initial screen appears.
2.Enter the sales order number, the order item, the material number and the BOM usage.
If you want to use a material BOM, or an existing order BOM to copy from, go to step 4. If you want to create an order BOM without a reference, click and go to step 7.
You cannot use a configurable BOM as a reference.
3.Click Order BOM (copy order BOM) or Material BOM (copy material BOM).
The Copy material BOM or Copy order BOM dialog box appears.
4.Enter the data required and click .
The item overview appears, for the bill of material you are using as a reference.
5.Select the items you want to copy to the order BOM and click .
The item overview for your new order BOM appears. The items you transferred are displayed in the item overview.
6.Enter new items and alter items if necessary. Entering items in order BOMs is similar to entering items in material BOMs. However, you cannot enter class items in order BOMs. You can find further information in the Bills of Material documentation in Creating New Items.
Save your order BOM.
Example: Creating Order BOM Without Variant Configuration :
The material BOM for material A contains components B and C, which are themselves assemblies. The material BOM for material C contains components D and E and the material BOM for material C contains components F and G.
A sales order is created for customer Smith, with the number 821. Material A is inserted under sales order item 10 in this sales order. At the request of customer Smith, for this sales order, the bill of material for assembly C is changed manually. Component H is added to components F and G. This change should not take effect in the material BOM, because assembly C is only expected to be produced once in this form, for customer Smith.
An order BOM is generated from the material BOM for material C. Since nothing was changed in the bills of material for materials A and B, in this sales order the material BOM will continue to be used for these assemblies.
Hope this helps.
Revert if any doubt and reward if useful.
Regards,
Tejas

Sales order BOM configuration - CU51

Hi,
I am using with Variant configuration. I will be configuring the FERT into Sales Order for the characteristic.
Then I tried for CU51 t code for BOM configuration (for adding or removing of materials for some special cases) in the sales order,
But I am not able to do so, and I am getting an error as -> Order BOM processing not possible - owner MARC not allowed
In CHANGE CONFIGURATION PROFILE(CU42) for KMAT material I had given -> Order BOM -> result oriented- in configuration parameters.
Is there any settings is to be made
Please your advices will be appreciated.
Thank you.

Thank you for replies,
I checked it, in CU41order BOM was selected, it was configured the fert materials in MRP 3 VIEW, was also assigned the relation in CS40.

Non configurable Assembly and Configurable Assembly

Hi
Can somebody correct my understanding of these two concepts.
Non Configurable Assembly: The header material will have child components but it is not activated for configuration.
Configurable Assembly: The header material will have child components and over above these the header item is also elgible to be configurable.
Kind Regards
Chakradhar

In the standard R/3 System, the following item category groups determine which item categories are assigned to configurable materials in the sales order:
· Item category group 0002
Pricing and transfer of requirements for header material
· Item category group 0004
Pricing and transfer of requirements for components
The BOM of the configurable material may contain configurable assemblies, which are copied to the sales order as subordinate items. The item category group of the materials and the item category of the superior material determine the item category of these subordinate items.

Why account assignment is not deleted when push "Order as Direct Material"?

Hi Gurus,
I have a problem with shopping carts (SC) of stock items:
1.- I add 5 items.
2.- I push "Order as Direct Material" button for 3 items only.
3.- I push "Hold" button to set SC with held status.
4.- I modify the SC and push "Order as Direct Material" button for 2 items missing.
5.- I order the SC.
One of the effects that it has the "Order as Direct Material" button is that it deletes the account assignment because the items will use to create a PO stock.
But for the last 2 items (number 4.-) the account assignment is not deleted.
This is causing that the PO's have error: "Invalid tax code".
Somebody can say to me why is not deleting the account assignment for items previously hold?
My systems are:
SRM 4.0 (SRM_SERVER 500) level 8
R/3 4.7 (SAP_APPL 470) level 24

check item data what is stored here DP ? if account assignment not cleared it could be a bug. but you need to convince them to get a correction note.

Order as direct material in catalog, with contract

Hi,
We are using SRM 5.5 and we have an issue concerning direct materials in a SC.
In the shopping cart via a catalog, when you choose "Order as direct material" function for an item on the 'Basic data' detail screen, the information about the contract assigned to that item disapear.
This situation doen't happen when we do a SC with reference to a contract, but without being in catalog.
Do you have any idea about the reason of this behaviour?
Many thanks,
Andreia Nascimento

Make to Order for Configurable Material & Error in Confirmation

Hello, PP Gurus,
I am doing one MTO for Fabric business but during the confirmation I am getting error that
SALES order Stock does not Exist as well Please inform me Costing procedure in this scenario.
*is it necessary to run MRP in this scenario?*
Please see the all Details of Business so that U can give answer properly.
One is raw fabric (Raw material) which has to passed different process to convert Colored fabric as my Finish product as well I can sale Raw fabric also.
is it possible to maintain raw fabric and Colored fabric with same mat.code?
I have configured the material as well all pricing BOM, Recipe its working properly.
How can I assign the material to Operation? I am getting GRAY field in New Assignment in change recipe mode ..
Is it possible to use Material type other than KMAT? I want to use Finish material type. If yes How?
Right now I can create Process order from the Sales order but I am facing error in confirmation that Sales Order stock does not exist than I have to transfered stock to Sales order and error get solved temporarily but I want to avoid this manual transaction to remove this error. Any configuration is required please inform.
My configuration is given below.
MRP Type : PD
BOM item Category: L Stock Item.
In dependency & Profile I have set radio Button as Single level Bom explosion.
Order Bom selection in profile.
Strategy : 25 make to order for configure material.
How can I do ? please suggest any changes
I have only 9 months of SAP experience within short time I have gain lot knowledge from this site and other reading material as well my learning Learning thirst.
thanks to all SAP gurus..
THANKS IN ADVANCE .... Definitely I will reward points even if my some questions get solved...
Regards,
Bhavik dangi.

Hi,
You can use variant configuration for selling the colored fabric. Use the basic fabric as raw. and maintain variant configuarations to have many variants.
Please use strategy 25. When you run MRP the planned orders will be generated and will be assigned to the sales orders. You can see it on the account assignment tab.
In material master pleasse maintain Individual collective requirement indicator to 1-individual in the MRP-4 view.
Then the stocks will be reserved to the specific sales orders.
Thanks and regards
