Sales bom - parent item

when i create a sales bom, all the components display as independent items on the picklist. why? and it also does not display the parent item. the picker needs to see this information! how can i make that show up on the picklist? any ideas?

Hi Gordon,
I appreciate your mature reply to my critical posting.
Do you know what the Sales BOM is supposed to be used for? I am not sure how in any possible context can the below make sense:
1. Currently B1 will deliver components only of a Sales BOM at zero cost
2. Given sales orders can "expire" (in the sense they can have a cut-off date - typically 30 days by default I think), surely if one doesn't receive the remaining components in time, this would lead to a very awkward situation! What if the remaining component(s) is/are non-purchased item(s)?
If the above was registered as a program error, fair enough. But they won't register it. any ideas why?
Although with each version (see below), everything works "as designed" - they keep changing it:
In 2004A, Sales BOMs were working "as designed" - but P&P manager couldn't be used (parent item was lost when making delivery note)
In 2005A, Sales BOMs were working "as designed" - same as above - but Assembly BOMs (essentially the same thing) were improved would print off a separate component picking list.
In 2007A, Sales BOMs are working "as designed" - note, this hasn't officially changed yet - but we now get the parent item in the delivery via P&P
Our SAP partner was just as surprised at the functionality as we were when we moved ahead with the install a few years ago.
Please understand, my only issue is the lack of willingness from SAP to recognise the problem at all - and the standard answer of "as designed" even when it is clear there is a problem. If you can help myself and perhaps Prem improve our understanding of the design (especially points 1 and 2 above) I would genuinely be grateful.
Thanks,
Raj

Printing SALES BOM sub items / child items

Hi,
We currently have SALES BOM materials setup & have sub items suppressed from printing on pick notes & delivery notes. I now have some materials which i need to be SALES BOM materials but i want the sub items to print on the pick notes & delivery notes.
I have copied the material type into a new material type but dont know where to look where I can allow printing of sub items for this material type?? I've look in IMG & also SMARTFORMS but can find where i need to configure this.
Can someone please help?? p.s I'm a bit of a novice so will need detailed instructions.
Many thanks in advance
Dean

Please try VBAP and VSVBAP_CN tables.
You have to take VBAP-SERNR field for your sales order and give it as input in VSVBAP_CN-SERNR and then you will get all the parent and child items. If you tell this to ABAPer, he should be able to enable this in the smartform you are going to use.
The same field is available in VBRP also.
Hope this helps.

Sales BOM : Header item stock and cost

Hello gurus,
I'm very new for sales BOM and have one questions.
We have material A and B (purchased from vendor).
They will be assembled by 3PL company as C.
Then we will sell C to the our customer.
I want to set price/cost at the header item level.
because we will sell material B free of charge.
I've set C like below
1. Item category group. : ERLA
   Item category : TAQ
   Setting of A and B
    Item category group. : NORM
   Item category : TAE
2. Then make BOM in tcode CS01 with C
    Material : C
    Plant: XXXX
    BOM Usage :5
    subitem : A, B
    Item category : N(Non-stock item)
After then I tried to make a sales order
with material C.
I can get sub-items(A,B) successfully
however system said there is no atp stock for C.
How can I get stock of C from stock of A and B?
And How can I set the cost of C with value of A+B?
And How can I set the condition of C to calculate cost of C in header level?
or can I set like
price is determined in header level and cost is calculated in item level?
Or please recommend nicer solution.
Thank you very much.
J.K.

Hi Azam,
It seems to me that you want to use Delivery Group for Sales BOM where If Mat A = Mat B + Mat C and Mat B Availability date is 20/07/2014 (DD/MM/YYYY) and Mat C availability is 25/07/2014 then Main line item should be confirmed with 25/07/2014.
If any one sub Item is not available, then Any of the item from the Grouping should not be dispatched.
If this is the requirement then, In Item Category (VOV7) for main Item update Create Delivery Group field with X and your requirement will be fulfilled.
Do let us know the result after testing.
Regards,
MJ.

Hi,
Goto the T.Code "VOV4".
In this as you have assigned correctly,you can change manually to "ZTAN" as you have maintained it as Mitcat.
If you want that it should come automatically while creating the order,then Maintain "ZTAN" as the Default Item category.
Save.

Sales Order - Sales BOM Items To Parent Item Link

I'm using sales boms and as you know, when a parent item is brought into a sales order, all the bom components are also are brought on the order (rdr1.treetype = 'I') and the component quantites are automatically adjusted when the parent item quantity changes. Works rather well.
I'm trying to find out which table.field holds the quantity per of the component to the parent and how the components are linked to the parent on the sales order. Meaning how does the system know to change the component quantities so quickly. Especially if there are 3-4 sales kit parent items and some of the components are common between the two?
The real reason I need to know is that i'm trying to great a report that shows the sales kit parent item and all of it's components, with the components showing the quantity per kit.
Thanks all.

Hi,
The details regarding the Parent Item and the
Components which are part of the Parent Item
in BOM can be obtained from table ITT1.
The following fields can be taken from the table :
Parent Item
Component Element Number
Component Item
Quantity
Cheers~

We need a No-Charge TAQ item Category for a Sales BOM

We have a situation where we will bring in several Sales BOM's on a Sales order, but need to have one or more of the Sales BOM's to be a No-Charge item (similar to a TANN Item Cat).
We are using ERLA (top down) Item Category Group for the Sales BOM materials and when we use these materials in a sales order I would like to be able to change the some of the Sales BOM's Item Category to a No Charge category (we created a ZAQ item category for this situation), but when you creating the Sales Order, the top level item where the pricing is (the TAQ item category) is GRAYED out and I can not change it to our new ZAQ category, even though it appears in the drop down list for the Item Category.
Is there any way to make the top level TAQ item category for Item Cat. Group ERLA a maintainable field on the Sales order?

As I know- std , will not support Return scenario of Sales BOM & Free goods.
Work around may be needed to achieve this, other than standard.
Create Zitem category by copying from REN - (ZREN - with structure scope & application), determine item category for sub items as well.
Maintain copy controls accordingly from RE to LR - Ret delivery & RE- Credit for returns.
Test & revert.

Pick & Pack and Sales BOM components

We have noticed that pick and pack will put sales BOM component items on the list even if all the component items are not available to complete the parent Sales Item. If we are not watchful, we can inadvertently ship a partial kit - i.e. ship only a left shoe if the right shoe to complete the pair happens not to be in stock.
Does anyone know of a way to ensure that pick and pack only allows/recommends complete Sales BOM's? Same issue exists for Deliveries.

Sales BOM components visible on forms...

I have a client that has a wish list item, they would like the sales BOM component items to not show on Quotes, order acknowledgements and invoices but obviously need them to appear on the picking and packing documents along with the parent. Has anyone else run across this type of request? Is this something that can be accommodated in Crystal?
Thanks much! Amy

You can probably make it happen in Crystal. Even in PLD, just make take those fields out from the form and only include them in the picking and packing documents.

Adding Sales BOM to Sales Order through SDK

Hello Experts,
We're encountering an issue with adding Sales BOM items to the Sales Order through the SDK. When we add the parent, the object automatically adds the children as lines after all other lines. This causes issues with our batch delivery creation. When the Sales Order is created inside SBO Client, it always adds the child items right under the parent. We have a work around where we change the LineNum through SQL, but that seems like a sketchy method - what's the proper way of adding Sales BOM items to a Sales Order?
Here is the code we're using to add the Sales Order lines
olOrders.Lines.ItemCode = sItemCode
olOrders.Lines.ItemDescription = aRecSet.Fields.Item("name").Value
olOrders.Lines.UnitPrice = aRecSet.Fields.Item("cartprice").Value
olOrders.Lines.Quantity = aRecSet.Fields.Item("qty").Value
Thanks for the help!

Hi Rob,
I certainly wouldn't recommend you use a direct SQL command to update the LineNum on the sales order rows. This will invalidate your support agreement with SAP.
One way you can deal with this would be to add your Sales BOM header item to a draft document (of type sales order) and add this first. You can then retrieve it in the DI API and add the other Items before adding the document as a proper sales order (and removing the draft). You can do this using the Draft and Documents objects either by coding each property or by exporting the Draft to XML and using XLST to convert it to a Sales Order and reimporting it. It does require a fair bit of coding but it will achieve what you need.
Kind Regards,
Owen

SD Sales BOM and Stock Movement--Help please

Hi,
Scenario:
Client is dealing with Value packs. i.e. He creates a finish good by using 2 finish goods as components by creating Sales BOM.
Basic Requirement: To have component level treatment i.e. pricing delivery to be incorporated for components.
Item cat grp selected as LUMF for BOM parent Item in material master.
But the requirement is that stock movements should reflect for both parent as well as BOM materials upon PGI. Header stock is required to check the stock availibity.
By this approach no movements can be seen for parent which will give a wrong picture of the stock positions for Parent Material.
How this can be handled whereby we can see the stock movements for both Parent as well as components.
Please suggest
Regards,
manOO

Hi,
Please Use Two Different Item Categories and Schedule Line Categories in this Scenarios and Please ensure that both should be relevant for Delivery.
Hope this sloves your Puprose and Please Reward If Really Helpful,

I have a production BOM. In Delivery document how to print the Parent and Child items Item Code and Qty.At the time
of add a delivery document Inventory stock redused only in Parent Item not child item because child item stock already reduced in issue for production.

If you need to print both the BOM Parent and Child items, you have to create your own report. BOM is only for production if it is not Sales type.

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.

Hi Dayananda
Check in transaction VTFL for given item category what copying routine are set. Check those copy routine and see if there is any data is being copied from table VBAP
Similar to above also check transaction VTFA for copying routine (if any)
As a standard SAP even we create an invoice with reference to the delivery document, still there are some data which is being copied from a sales order i.e. all pricing relevant information is copied from your sales order and not from delivery.
