Phantom item without BOM

Hi experts,
In 2007 A, when a production order contained a Phantom item that did not have an associated BOM an error was thrown and the BOM could be created then. In 8.81, no such error is generated and these can slip by. Am I perhaps missing a checkbox to get that error again?
Thanks

Actually that error did appear on a second Phantom with no BOM, so we're not sure what happened on the first one.

PP - Phantom Assembly Alt Item in BOM not loaded in Planned Order

Hi all,
I have a scenario where in my finished product, I have several components organized in Alternate Group, and for each group, I define a component as Prime (100% usage) and others as Alternate (0% utilization). Among these there are some components that are configured as Phantom (Special Procurement 50), and these Phantom items, when they are Alternate in the BOM, ie, 0% Probability of Use in Alternate Item Group, it is not loaded in the list of components in Planned Order. Only the Phantom that is as Prime in BOM is showed in the Planned Order, together with their subcomponents.
The other components that are not phantom, usually appear within the Planned Order, those that have 100% utilization, and those who have 0% utilization set in the BOM. Obviously, all requirement is pointed in the Prime Item, but I can change according to availability of material in MDVP or manually in CO02.
When the Production Order is created directly by CO01, without conversion of planned order, the list of components typically brings all the Phantoms, independently of the Probability Use %.
Someone tell me if there is some kind of configuration to allow the Phantoms Optional also be uploaded to the component list of planned orders without having to change the percentage of use in BOM.
Thanks in advance.

Hello MCantos,
When you have maintained the usage probability as 0% for a alternative component, that means you do not want that partular material to be planned further. In short this is just an Engineering Relevant Material (is not required in Production activity).
When this alternate material with usage probability 0% is phantom material, you want its components to be proposed. But you yourself have answered that this phantom material has usage probability 0% and this means it is not required in Production and thus its components as well are not required. Thus system is not exploding the BOM and proposing the material at the time of Production activity.
Hope I answered your query. Please check your usage probability for phantom assembly part and if required correct the same so that you can achive what you want.
Thanks,
Rahul.

How to tick phantom item indicator in BOM

hi all,
i would like to create BOM which i will later use during BOM transfer.
however, some materials, i use for structuring the BOM only so i do not want it to be procured..
according to some i should use phantom item however the tickbox indicator is GRAYED OUT/UNEDITABLE in the item data of the BOM...
how do i do this? my main requirement is to be able to create multilevel bom where only lowest items are actually procured.. in the example, the level 3 items are procured while level 2 bom items are for structuring the BOM only so i would like to set it as phantom item.
EX: HOUSE1 - main BOM
       ROOF - level 2 BOM
              Nails     - level 3 bom
              Paint     - level 3 bom
              Tiles      - level 3 bom
       WALL-   level 2 BOM
              Hollow Blocks   - level 3 bom
              Cement            - level 3 bom
              Sand                -level 3 bom
       FLOOR- level 2 BOM
               Steel Bar         - level 3 bom
               Cement           - level 3 bom
               Gravel             - level 3 bom
               Sand              - level 3 bom

Hi Ramesh,
This is a material level setting. If you want only level 3 BOM items are to be procured then create level 1 and level 2 material as phantom assembly (set special procurement - 50 in MRP 2 view and procurement type as no procurement) in material master and then create your BOM as mentioned. During BOM transfer in CN33 select the check box for multilevel and then your purpose will be solved.

BOM where-used list with Phantom item ( Special procurement ) - ALV grid

Hi Gurus,
I have a request with tcode CS15 when we use alv-grid.
We have a component with phantom item indicator because we use the special procurement type 50.
When we run the transaction we don't use the variable list but we use the alv-grid.
I change the layout but we haven't the field "Special procurement" or "Phantom item" in the column set
Thanks in advance
Marco Ferrari

dear friend
you could build a query (t-code SQ01) and make visible any relevant fields.
before run SQ02 and create an info-set based on a standard logical databse CMC.
you even do not need an abaper. just try yourself. play in DEV system
good luck.

Hi Sandeep,
Thanks for your reply.
I have checked all three possibilities. Item is not Engineering item and already assigned to Org. Also the BOM doesnot exist. Kindly note that I donot have any issue in creating bill of a standard item. We are using phantom item for the first time so tell me if phantom item need some special setup or some profile option to be active etc? I am using below attributes in inventory.

What is use of Item Category N(non-stock item) in BOM creation

Dear Experts,
What is use of Item Category N(non-stock item) in BOM creation ?
regards
rajakarthik

Hi,
This item category is used for components which are not kept in stock if they are used in a bill of material (BOM). Non-stock items can be entered in the BOM with or without a master record. To enter a non-stock item without a master record, you must simply enter a descriptive text.
When you use this item category, the system automatically creates a purchase requisition for these components,
Special functions
The following functions are supported for non-stock items
You maintain purchasing data for non-stock items in the bill of material.
In the planning run, the system generates purchase requisitions
instead of dependent requirements for components that are procured directly. When you configure your R/3 System for MRP, you can define whether direct procurement is triggered by the planning run or by production order management.
Product costing processes take valuation data from the BOM item.
The system determines the release strategy on the basis of the price data you enter. The material group is required to produce a purchase requisition.

Sub-contract without BOM

Hi
How to create sub-contract without BOM..We want to create a subcontract for a customer return finished product .Even this Product have bom.We dont want to send any components with the FP.We want to send some service materials with this FM.How to do this in SAP?
Thanks
Nick

hi Nick,
have not tried in one company code, any way you can try this with creating another plant as subcontracting vendor & process in the same way how you process for sub contracting.
1) Create plant as sub-contracting vendor
2) create po with item category L
3) send components
4) receive materials.
but since it is within a company code check for legality involved with FI, you can customize special transaction key for this may be with movement types since it is within a company code, that is the reason i asked you is it within a co.code

Ranjit

In sub contract PO no error shown for without BOM material..

Dear All,
I am creating subcontracting PO with item catagory "L" for material "XYZ" and for material "XYZ" i have not created any BOM.
Then also system is not giving any error while saving PO.
Generally it should give the error "Not possible to determine any components"
Also in mesage determination i have assigned mesage ME154 as error still it is not showing as error.
What could be the reason and what need to do to solve the same.
Naren

Dear Jurgen,
If it is giving an error i will able to use the notes...
Here i am not getting an error which is my concern
what i should do to get the error if i am putting material without BOM in PO andnot entering any components..

Mass change of BOM item and BOM item catergory

Hello Everyone,
I have a need to complete a mass change of a BOM item with another, usually I use transaction CS20,this works o.k. but this time I'm also changing the material with a new item catergory, for example a stock item with a phantom item.
Does anyone have an idea how to complete this task.
Kind Regards
Frankie

Hello,
Thankyou very much for your reply.
I did try adding the new material using CS20 but all the BOM qty's are different and as you know you have to complete this field, so it would mean changing one at a time, I attacked this issue from a different angle and created an LSMW so I can Mass delete the parts but then use this program to change the BOM item to the new part.
Thanks again for your reply
Kind Regards

How to find whether the created Sales Order is with BOM or without BOM ?

Hello,
I am technical guy i want to find whether the created sales order is with BOM or without bom.
Can anyone help me with table details.
Regards
VEk@

Go to TVAP & in FIELD STRUM give 'A' & PSGRP as 'SD01'.It will giveyou all the Item categories maintained in BOM.
Now you can cross - check with the Item Category maintain in the Sales Order.

About production order & phantom item

Hi experts,
I made a BOM containing several phantom items which are virtual items and don't have any stock. then I made a production order, SBO appears an error, "This product contains components which are phantom items, you must define the BOM for these items."
that seems i can't directlly use phantom items in production orders, I have to make a BOM for those phantom items and use that new BOM, is that right? or are there any methods to let production order contain phantom items?
Thanks...
PS, one of my phantom item is gummed tape.

A Phantom item is more for structural purpose and it should contain child items and must be defined as a BOM. The child item will be issued to jobs when a Production Order for the Parent Item containing the phantom item is created.

Sample production run without bom,routing

at our client place we have a scenario where we will run sample production (before real production run) without creating bom/routing for the material...
someone suggested we use finance internal order and then post the material documents in migo against that internal order and labor costs in kb21n..
is this the only easiest way for this kind of scenario? or do you have any other ideas?

Hi Swatghi Rege,
You can create a production order without Routing and without BOM by creating a new order type.
To be able to create an order without Routing: Change the Config in OPL8 ( order type dependent parameters) as routing optional.
To be able to create the Order without the BOM you will need to:
- Configure a new BOM Application. This can be done in tcode OS30.
- Create a BOM ID in T-code OS31 with BOM Usage as Production.
- Assign this BOM ID in BOM Application.
- In the ID maintain a BOM alone without any items.
- Finally in OPL8, you need to assign the new BOM Application for your Order type.
Thansk and Regards,

Error While creating a regular item without any demo data.

Hi All,
In RMS13.1.1, during creation of an item without any demo data, and entering all the required inputs on the item master & itemsupp form. When we click on “Retail by Zone” the following error message got displayed “Exchange rates does not exist” on the Item Retail Price by Zone window form.
Thanks,
Sushanth.D
Edited by: user10680684 on Jul 13, 2010 2:51 AM

What you can do is open the Form's fmb code in Forms Developer IDE, or switch on session level or database level SQL_TRACE to see the SQL statements that the Form is firing to the database. (Find the tracefile in the udump folder). Replaying the SQL statements from the SQL trace file in e.g. SQL*Developer may lead to a cursor or block that e.g. does not return any rows. You may need to replace bind variables' placeholders (:a1 etc.) found in the trace file with the relevant business values for your items, zones, etc.
Good luck and let us know how you progress,

G/L account item without tax code in document with deferred taxes

Hi ,
While releasing the billing document to accounting i get this error " G/L account item without tax code in document with deferred taxes". Not able to release it to accounts. What could be the possible reason??
Actually, this error is occuring only when i am using a Discount Condition (Z Condition).
Please guide what could be the problem in the Discount Condition?
Thanks and Best Regards

whats this Z condition type. Is it a tax condition type. If yes , please check the tax code assigned to this in the condition type defintion (VK12) and in FTXP check if this code is assigned with Account key.
Also in the pricing procedure, if this condition is Active (not statistical) whats the account key assigned to it. Then check whats the GL Account assigned to this Account key (VKOA).
Then in FS03 , check this GL account number and under "Control Data" whats the Tax category maintained. You can have a * for the tax category here.
Hope this helps
Regards

How to change a plant in sales order for main item of BOM

Dear Gorus,
Please tell me how we can change plant of main item of a BOM?
Actually, I have maintained a LUMF BOM. The main item and components of this are maintained for two different plants. BOM is also maintained for both the plants and it explodes smoothly in sales order once I provide the plant. But as per our reqirement sometime we need to change the plant. Here system does not allow to change the plant of main item of BOM as it is in gray mode now.
Please guide me how can I change the plant? Is it possible by configuration or should I go for userexit?
If the userexit required please tell me which userexit I have to use because I already discussed and checked with my ABAPer. we could not find the right userexit.
Thnaks in advance.
regards,
Sanjay

Dear Sanju,
Could you please explain what you have done for the same?
Thanks & Regards
