Ref Char fpr item descrption in BOM

Hi All
I want to change the item description in BOM through variant configuration (reference character ).
The scenario is in sales order i will be entering the size (lenght and width) this two char should reflect or change the item descrption of the item in BOM.(which will b selected through sel.condition).
Can anybody guide how to configure for the above req.
Advance thanks
Thanks and Regards
Praveen S

Praveen Sasi1,
You are asking for Variant Configuration.
1. Create Material
    a. Configurable Material - KMAT
    b. Gen. Item Category Group - 0002
    c. Item Category Group - 0002
    d. You won't have Accounting -1 and Accounting -2 View.
2. Include Access Sequence - 57 Variants (Table 57)
3. Include Condition Type VA00 - Variants in pricing procedure
a. Maintain Charchteristics - CT04 (A property that describes and differentiates objects Ex. Length, Color, weight..etc)
Say Ex Z_Engine_Dukati
Basic data: Z_Engine_Dukati
Description: Automotive
Status : Released
Data type: Charachter format
Number of Chars: 9
Values assignment: Single value(appply tick mark)
Values TAB:
char Values -
> Description -
> D ---> O -
> S
001 -
> 500 cc -
>yes -->NO -->NO
002 -
> 1000 cc -
>NO -->NO -->NO
003 -
> 1500 cc -
>No -->NO -->NO
Click Save.
silimlarly maintain other charchteristics.
b. Classes: CL02
Note Here Class type = 300 (Variants)
Here you list all the charchteristics with Date and Value
c. Configuration Profile: CU41
d. Then Maintain condition records in VK11

PO line item link with BOM

Hi guys ,
Actually I am looking for some info on this scenario. while creating PO for specific document type(ZPOG) and item category (L) , I need to modify the child material qty of the line item .
This is subcontract PO .
For example if I am creating PO for X material (which has y as a child ) , I need to modifiy the qty of Y .
actually there is one badi called ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST to handle the PO creation ,
But I am not able to find the link between that line item material and BOM material .
points rewarded if the question was answered .
Regards
Siva

Hi Ganesh ,
Thanks for your information . But my concern is it ( Child material qty ) should be rounded off while creating PO . not to be done manually .
For that purpoes only I am using that Badi , but I couldn't find the link between BOM material and PO line item material .

Change item category of BOM component

Hi,
Our user wanted to change the item category for BOM components through transaction IB12 using LSMW.Wanted to confirm whether it is possible to change item categoryof BOM component from "N" to "L" through LSMW.What exactly will be effected because of this change?And the steps to change the item category from "N" to "L" for the list of BOM component using LSMW.
Request your valuable thoughts.
Thank you in advance,
Regards,
Rubina Rahman

Hi Rubina,
N is non stock item
L is stock item
You have to make sure why the business warants to chnage the item category.
To answer the question:
It is possible to chnage the item category from "N" to "L" through LSMW (Provided depends on the number of components used in a BOM. If the number of items exceeds to multiple screen, then you have to think of developing BDC)
The effect will be: with item category "N" if the material is used in the order, based on the configuration the system shall automatically trigger the purchase requisition. With item category "L" it is assumed as stock is available and taken care by MRP program.
Suppose if it is material BOM:
          A. Use T.code: CS02 in LSMW recording
          B. Provide information like Material number, Plant, BOM usage
          C. In the item level change the item category from N to L
          D. Save the recording
          E. I hope you know the remaining LSMW process steps
Cheers,

Avoid printing child items of Sales BOM in AR Invoice

Hi All,
I have a requirement to edit the print layout of AR Invoice to see only the parent item of the Sales BOM in SAP 2005.
In SAP 2007, there is an option to Hide BOM Components in Print Out but how do I avoid printing child items in SAP 2005.
Please advise.
Thanks for your help!
Regards,
Payal

Hi Payal,
As a definition of B1, the children of the Sales BOM will always be shown in a marketing document.
However, we can change the template to hide them from the printouts. Please kindly follow the steps as below:
Print template editing for removing child items of Sales BOM
1.Add a new Text Field with Text 'I' in the Repetitive Area. ('I' is the attribute for child items)
2.Add a new Data Field in the Repetitive Area as below:
   a)In the Content tab, chose Table A/R Invoice # Rows and Column BOM Type
3.   Add a Formula in the Repetitive Area as below In the Content tab, chose:
      i.Source Type: Formula
      ii.In the Formula Editor, insert Field 1: the newly created Data field
      iii.Operation: !=
      iv.Field 2: the newly created Text field e.g. Field_316!=Field_315
4.Set the three fields added as Invisible, in order to set it as invisible, please uncheck the Visible box under General tab
5.Set Link to Field on the General tab of every field in the Repetitive Area (Row Level) to the exclusive number of the newly created calculation field.
6.Double-click the Repetitive Area to open Repetitive Area Property, Check Area Height Adjustment box under Format tab to hide the blank lines.
7 Save template and set as default, print preview.
You will find that the row number is the original, not successive, number. It is better to hide the row number field.
I hope it shall help.

Dependencies on "Ku0094 item category on BOM

Hi
I need a configurable material where BOM components have to be chosen from characteristic values, so I thought I could use 200 class on BOM to make it easier, but I need to control component quantity and component measure unit too.
I had tried to change those data from BOM adding a procedure on the K item category on BOM, but I hadnt had success, I dont know if its not possible to put that kind of dependencies on K items .
Is that possible?, I havent any problem if item category is L (using selection conditions instead 200 class type and K item categories), system works properly.
Thanks!
Carlos.

Go to SE11 type your table LIPS, enter and then press Ctl + Shift + F10, it will take you to selection screen,
in that you can type the desired item cat in the field PSTYV.
here is your report of Del doc no according to item cat.

Service Item in the BOM

Dear All, I would like to add service item in the bom which will should be non stock but valuated item.
1) I am using material type WERT/ ROH for this.
2) Whenever I am trying to post the GRN for the finished goods , It is giving an error
No special stocks defined for value-only materials
Message no. M7311
Diagnosis
You set a special stock indicator although the article concerned is a value-only article. You cannot have special stock for value-only articles.
Procedure
Cancel the special stock indicator.
please advise the solution .
Thanks for the help.
Regards
Sukh

Hi
This error is coming since you have assigned the WERT material type in BOM and for this in OMS2 there is no update of quantity defined in Plant/Material.

Repetition of an item in a BOM

Hi Experts,
When we enter the items in a BOM of a master recipe, system by default allows any item to be repeated more than once as different line entries. Is it possible to configure the system to restrict such repetition ?
Regards
Sm.

Hi SM,
its not possible through any configuration, and its required in many bussiness as we cant allocated a single line item from BOM to more then one operation in routings, so Item repetations i s more likely.
If you want to avoid it , create a Z transaction , by copying existing one and put restriction by comparing material numbers.
hope it will help you.

How to modify or add new line items to existing BOM?

Hi All-
I have been trying to change Quantity, Valid From Date, Sort String and Item Category of existing BOM components, but only successful in changing Quantity and sort string. I dont know why Valid From date and Item Category are not getting changed. Further, I am not able to add new components (items) to the BOM. Can anyone help me with the coding for the same? I shall def reward the good and helpful answers. I am using the function module, CSAP_MAT_BOM_MAINTAIN. Send me some sample program for understanding.
Thanks
Shakir

Hi,
Please try to use Explicit Commit work to save the changes.
check if there in any BAPI FM related to this.
Please check the structure you have passed for these fields.
check the Item category for BOM items - POSTP in table T418. if the entry exists then try to add the values again.
Thanks & Regards,

Item category in BOM

Hi All
What is the use of item catergory R - Varaible -size item in BOM cso1.
Thanks and Regards

Dear,
If you want different-sized sections of a material (raw material) to be represented by one material number in BOM items, you use the R variable size item category.
We use OS15 to create Variable size item formula.
For Ex: To calculate vol. of rectangle
Vol. of recanglet = length * breadth * height
Please refer this link for details,
[Varaible Size item in BOM|variable size item]

Variable size item problem in BOM

hi all,
We have semi-finished material with componets as variable size items (item cat. R)
Now in the variable size tem data, Size 1 = 1,406 MM, Size 2 = 1,220 MM. Numner is 1 ST, formaula place is blank.
Qty Var-Sz Item is calculated by system is 3.957 M2. On what basis this value is calculated?
In the component material we have maintained a componenet scrap quantity as 15%.
BOM ratio of header : component = 1NOS : 1 ST
Again when we create a production order for the header, for 1 NOS header quantity component qty becomes 2.
For 2 NOS of header qty, component becomes 3 like this.
Why this happens..
Regards,
Srijit.

Line item no in BOM

Sir,
In Standard SAP, while creating a BOM, the Line Item no is generated automatically. But this can be altered at any time. SAP also allows same line item no to be entered for two different part nos within a Same assembly.
Is there any mechanism /customisation / BAPI for blocking this feature?.
We are working on a project wherein SAP is integrated with a Third Party Application where the BOM will be maintained in future. As a first step all the existing data (BOM) will be moved to this application and any changes in future will be carried out there and moved to SAP.
But checks and controls have been built in this application so as to not allow same line item number within an assembly for two different part nos.
There are some BOMs in SAP where this type of scenario exists. It will be a problem while moving data from SAP to that application.
We as a part of the team wanted to build in a mechanism wherein these type of errors can be avoided in future.
Can someone throw some light on this subject?..
Regards,
R. Vijayakumar

Hi Vijay,in std SAP you can only set the default Line item incrment number but unfortunately SAP system does not validate it for duplications.. there are two possibilities ,either try using any user exit available to validate the same during BOM Creation and changing or saving the bom.
Otherwise if you have OSS login try to log and let me know once you have done it.
Cheers

Reg:Variable size item R in BOM

Dear Experts ,
Need one input on this .
For an particular sheet metal part , i need to know the area and weight of sheet consumed.
By defining item category R in BOM for consuming sheet , can we add Length , Breadth and width of the sheet required to produce the part..?
Need UOM in M3
what necessary settings is required , how to define the formula other than SAP standard provided.
Thanks in advance..

Hi,
In variable size data put Size1, Size2 & Size3 as your length, breadth & width. For determine area put your respective formula key.
For Ex: ROMS1(Size1) * ROMS2 (Size2) area calculation for rectangular shape components
For Defining formula goto OS15
Define Formula & its name then Dimension result as SURFAC if it is used for calculation of area.

Error message when trying to add item in change BOM goup

Hi I went to transaction cs05,and trying to add item to specific material with BOM group,an error message popped up and saying assign the item to an alternative,what does it mean? How to solve?

Hi,
A finished material can have multiple alternative BOMS which can be stored in a common BOM group number. CS05 is used to change these multiple boms.
When you add a new item in CS05, system will ask - to which alternative bom the new item should be assigned and that's how you are getting this message. For example, if in a bom group you have 3 differnet alternatvie boms for a FG material, when you add new item in CS05, you will see 3 checkbox at the right hand side of the screen. If you want to assign new item to all the three alternative BOMs , than select all the three check box and save.

Ravi Thakkar.
