PM - Equipment BOM VS Maintenance Bills of Material

Hi,
In Materials planning, Using maintenance bills of material have advantage , know that there's Equipment BOMs
& Functional location BOMs.
When & How to use the Functional Location BOM ?
When & How to use Equipment BO?
Can we use normal production BOM (CS01) replace all this equipment BOM / FL BOM?
TQ.

Hi,
Production BOM will have the Materials in Header as well as in Item level. Even BOM usage will be defined as Production.
In Equipment / FL BOM, BOM will be created against the Technical Objects. These BOMs will be used in Maintenance Orders. In these BOMs, components of the Equipments (For example, equipment will be motor. Components may be capacitor, rotor, casing, etc.,) will be mentioned with the qty.
Based on the type of motor, components can be different type. So BOMs will be maintained by the MDM people. Maintenance Planner will create the Maintenance Order & BOM will enable him to select the right component (There may be different type of rotors in Material Master, but based on Motor type, rotor should be selected in Maintenance Order).
As Maintenance Planner will not aware of the type of component, BOM will help him to select the right component.

Bills of material[BOM]

Dear all,
hi, i have got a dought in bills of material, i shall be very much pleased if some one helps me out of this.
using the transaction code CS01, i have created the 'BOM' for the material 'computer' giving the components as 'keypad' and 'CPU'. after creating the required thing i have saved the data.
later on when i tried to creat a sales order using this data, the components are not getting displayed in the sales order.
what i have to do to get the components displayed in the sales order.
please do help me out.
Regards,
Sushmitha.

Susmitha,
below is whole process for sales BOM-
Sales BOM Implementation
A bill of material (BOM) describes the different components that together create a product. A BOM for a bicycle, for example, consists of all the parts that make up the bicycle: the frame, the saddle, wheels, and so on.
Process Flow
When you enter the material number of a bill of materials that is relevant for sales order processing, the system displays the material that describes the whole bill of materials as a main item. The individual components are displayed as lower-level items.
There are two ways to process a bill of materials in Sales. Once you have entered a bill of material in a sales order, the system runs pricing, inventory control, and delivery processing at:
- Main item level if the material is assembled, or
- Component level if the material is not assembled
The type of processing used by the system is determined by the item category group that you enter in the material master record for relevant materials.
Processing at Main Item Level
If you want the system to carry out pricing, inventory control, and delivery processing at main item level, enter ERLA in the Item category group field of the Sales: sales org. 2 screen in the material master record of the finished product. This means that the components only function as text items and are not relevant for delivery. The following graphic shows how a bill of material is processed at main item level.
Processing at Component Level
If you want the system to carry out pricing, inventory control, and delivery processing at the component level, enter LUMF in the Item category group field of the Sales: sales org. 2 screen in the material master record of the finished product. In this case, only the components are relevant for delivery. During processing the system automatically creates a delivery group. The latest delivery date among all the components becomes the delivery date for the entire delivery group.

What is BOM(Bill Of Material) In Material Management(MM)

Hi,
i am part of Data Migration Project involving SAP And Peoplesoft Systems. We are doing Data Mapping Activity SAP as Target System And PeopleSoft as source system Now we are continuing with BOM (Bill Of Material) in MM Module. I have few doubts regarding Functionality of BOM Any one please Explain me what is Bill Of Material And What kind of Things it Deals WIth. Who Bills for the Material. Explain me some basic Things Abt BOM as i am a Technical Consultant i am totally Unaware of the Functionality Thanks in Advance.
Thanks

Hi ,
      Bill of material (BOM)
A list of all of the items that make up a product or assembly. The list has a formal structure and states the name, quantity, and unit of measure for each component. A comprehensive product life-cycle management solution should offer support for the following categories of BOM: feature and requirements structures, material BOM, document structures, equipment BOM, functional location BOM, sales order BOM, and work breakdown structure BOM.
Defining Bill of Materials
Use
Use the procedure to add and view Bill of Materials.
Procedure
       1.      Choose Production ® Bill of Materials.
       2.      On the Product No. field, press TAB to choose the item, which you want to define as a parent item, from the list of the Item Master records. You can also choose New on Choose from List to create a new master record.
If the parent item already has a Bill of Materials, the components are displayed. However, you can still create a new Bill of Materials for that parent item.
       3.      Select the relevant BOM type from the list as described in Bill of Materials Types.
Choose the Production type to be able to include the product in the MRP run and to process standard production orders.
       4.      Enter data for the finished product and the components. For details, see Bill of Materials Window.
If the BOM contains more than one component with the same serial or batch items; combine the items in a single component with the appropriate increased quantity. This will prevent possible errors in the batch or serial quantities.
       5.      Choose Add to save the Bill of Materials.
       6.      Choose OK.
Sometimes production gives rise to waste. If, for example, you manufacture the table, this process gives rise to sawdust.
You add sawdust as an additional component (by product). Enter a negative value in the Quantity field of the sawdust component.
When you complete and confirm the production of the desk, this component is put into stock. On the contrary, the rest of the components are removed from stock when you complete and confirm production.
Please reward if useful.

Reservation and requisition for material in MO from the equipment BOM only

Dear all,
i want to create material reservation and requisition from the equipment BOM only which is maintain against that equipment ( in the 'list' tab of component).and which material is not in that BOM, system should not allow to create material reservation and requisition of that material in maintenance order.

Shahanawaz,
You could try making the material and material text fields display-only via field selection.
Otherwise, try user-exit CNEX0026 (general inspection of material) via TCode SMOD.

How to create BOM(Bill Of Material) item data from flat file?

I have two flat files one is BOM(Bill Of Material) header data and BOM item data. BOM header is already created, now I want to create BOM item data with reference to the header data. Is there any standard direct batch input method in LSMW or Is there any standard BAPI or Is there any standard BDC report program to do the task? CS01 is the TCode to create BOM.

Hi,
The DI program works for create step CS01 and not for CS02.
Perhaps this ( adding items in header by Tx: CS02 ) could be achieved by a Recording step in LSMW.

Multiple Material Selection linked to Equip BOM

Dear Experts,
We have Equipment BOMs.
Now there is a requirement during Material selections in From To fields, that if I select the option 'Material by Equipment BOM' the list of materials under that particular Equip BOM should appear. (Exactly the way 'Material by Material Group' etc do) for this I need to have the above option in the Menu. i.e. Material by Equipment BOM. How do I achieve this?
Kindly help.

Dismantling of material from equipment BOM

Dear Experts
I am a beginner in SAP PM. I have one PM scenario. How to implement in SAP.
I want to dismantle one temperature gauge from one equipment for repaired, first I have to dismantle the gauge from equipment and after repairing I have to reinstall the gauge on equipment. How to proceed for that?
My temperature gauge is maintained in BOM for that equipment. How can I dismantle material from equipment BOM and reinstall that?
Thanks

Hi Iqbal
In IQ01 for the 'material' Temp gauge I created one serial no and equipment. I installed that equipment(temp gauge) on pump as sub equipment. Then before repairing, in IE02 itself I selected dismantle and dismantled. Is it the way you were mentioning?
Alternatively when I use the t-code IE4N it gives the following error massage: -
"Missing Customizing settings for software component ECC-DIMP
Message no. IEN126"
Can you please tell me the path details for IE4N. And is there any customising settings reqd for this T-code.
Thanks

Error while creating equipment BOM (IB01)

hi guys,
while creating equipment BOM (IB01) i am getting this error, while adding components.
'Material type NLAG cannot be used with item category (plant 1000)'.
regards
chinta

HI Chinta,
I understood ur problem IB01-give the equipment number which is generated by the system and give plant name in which you have created the equipment and bom usage as 4 (plant maintenance) and press enter.
Then you will get the components list give the description,quantity and item category as:
as you gave it as L it is throwing an error give it as N(Non stock item), then you wont get the error.while selecting the item cat. you will get differnet components and you select the appropriate one based on you equipment.Hope you issue is resolved.

Bharat

Equipment BOM

Hi,all,
I m maintaining equipment BOM for spare parts planning ,where all item category has been mentioned as "L",now from maintenance order I want to generate Purchase Requisition by changing the item category as "N" after selecting the specfic item from that equipment BOM .But item category field of the maintenance order is coming greyed mode ?how can I change the item category from "L" to "N" to trigger PR??
Also is it possible to create Purchase Requisition from t-code ME51N with reference to an equiment for which I have maintained BOM .Is there any field to enter equipment no from where I can retrieve the spare parts list ?Please give ur valuable suggestion how to proceed.
thanks in advance.

Hi,
BOM item should be maintain with item category u2018Nu2019 or while assigning component to order instead of double clicking on item (BOM item) , Just copy the material (ctrl+c) and assign category :u2018Nu2019 and quantity manually.
In case of second issue: You cannot create a PR with reference to Equipment and there is no field in PR to assign Equipment. If you are having cost centers assigned to equipment in 1:1 ratio, you can assign cost center in account assignment of PR item.
Or else you can go for a standing order that is one standing order is to be assigned to each equipment and same can be used for account assignment for procurement.
In case of capitalization of expense you can go for asset as account assignment.
If you are not looking for account assignment and just want to retrieve the PRs connected to Equipment then you can think of tracking no field.

Equipment BOM & Function Location BOM

Dear All,
We are created functional location BOM and we are created Functional location order.In that order i found the Equipment BOM which are linked with functional location.I assigned functional location BOM as well as Equipment BOM items for that order.It will take the items.In Functional location order Equipment BOM items should not take.
Pls.Help me.

Hi Srinu,
Your query is not clear.
Normally when your creating the maintenance order for Functional location. if this FL is having the BOM you will get the this BOM during the material planning in that order.
if your creating the maintenance order for Equipment. if this Equipment is having the BOM you will get the this BOM during the material planning in that order.
If there is no BOM you can plan the Material from the list also.

Venkat

Equipment BOM query

Dear All,
After maintaining equipment BOM , i think we are only
able to issue (BOM Maintained)material against the
Maintenance Order but its not happening.?? ? i think i
am missing some customization, is it?.
Plz guide, n do tell me main benefits of maintaining
Equipment BOM.
Thanks a ton

Deepak,
A BOM is used in PM to assign spares for a technical object. BOM provides you an overview of all components that make up an Equipment . The BOM is also used for material planning, and you can perform material planning when creating a maintenance task list or Work Order.
When you create a work order with an Equipment as reference object, you can access its BOM from the order component screen and assign an item to the order. The system generated material reservation/ PR based on the item category.
If you can elaborate your problem a bit more in detail I may be able to provide more specific answer.
Hope it helps.
Thanks,
PJ

IB01 Load equipment Bom

Bom in maintenance

Hi expert,
Could you please explain me about bom in details with if you have user manual please give.
Actually i want know about bom with how its working with notification throug order I mean automatically relfect in pm order
Please suggest me if you have any simple documents please provide me.
Regards,
Mathew.

There is no better help document than SAP help portal.
For each equipment, BoM can be created in IB01. This BoM contains the Spare Parts, Sub Assemblies using by, the equipment has been assembled.
Components can be only assigned in PM Order. Components can't be assigned in Notification. Also unlike Production BoM (all the components will get copied to Production Order based on Header Material), Equipment BoM components can be selected in PM Order without searching directly from Materials list.
It will help the Maintenance Planners to choose appropriate Spare Parts from BoM instead of choosing wrong spare parts from Material list.
Search in google for Equipment BoM.

How to Block Bill of material.

Dear Sirs,
Following is the scenario.
Some of our Bill of materials are Imported. These BOM are exclusively procured to manufacture certain Finished Products.
I would like to know how these BOM can be blocked or how i can block the issue of these BOM other than those fixed to manufacture Finished produces.
FOR EXAMPLE : FINISHED PRODUCT CODE   : FG1234
                            BILL OF MATERIAL              : RMXYZ
The above BOM is exclusively imported to manufacture FG1234. This BOM may be used to manufacture other Finished products also, but this should be allowed to Issue only for FG1234. How to configure or should we have to changes in maerial master.
Thanks in advance.

These BOM are exclusively procured to manufacture certain Finished Products.
If you use MTO, then it is possible.
The above BOM is exclusively imported to manufacture FG1234. This BOM may be used to manufacture other Finished products also, but this should be allowed to Issue only for FG1234. How to configure or should we have to changes in maerial master.
If you are using MTO Scenario, then you can achieve your requirement.
If you are using MTS Scenario, Then create a separate material code for each BOM, So that You can avoid using the other production order.
