Alternative bom and routing selection in planned order

hi
how i can config the system so that while creating planned order
system has to select the alteranative SEQUENCE and alternative routing ?
at opl8 we do this for production orders what about the planned oreders
in scheduling parameters of planned orders we can give only selection ID
WHAT about alternative SEQUENCE .
IN the same way how the system selects the alternative BOM with date in planned order
iam not creating production versions
plz suggest
sasikanth

Hi,
If you r using Prod Version then system pick ups the BOM attached in first valid production version.
So, normally put more frequently used BOM in your first Prod Version.
You have more options to use:
- lot size (defined in BOM header)
- production version (several option you have: lot size, manually assign a PV to a planned order)
- you can use explosion date (OPPP, Logistcs > Production > MRP > Master Data > BOM by date)
MRP 4 (in material master) > 'BOM explosion/dependent requirement' tab > you can set selection method according to your wish.

CO01 CREATE SHOP ORDER MANUALLY SELECTING ALTERNATIVE BOM

Hi, I can see how to set-up alternative bom selection when using mrp to create shop orders automatically but when we are manually creating a shop order and there are two alternative boms how do I select the second alternative at the time of creation, our set-up defaults to alternative 1 and gives no choice to select the other. Each alternative has different components of course and allocated to different operations.
Hope you can advise me, thank you.

Hi Craig Wood,
u can select desire alternative bom while creating Production order manually by creating two production versions for your header material. Do the following settings..
1.create two production versions and assign your alternative BOM - Mrp view of MM01.
2. define BOM selection Ind = 2 in (By production version) In Mrp view.
3.then define selection of production version = 1 (Manual selection)for your order type and plant - in OPL8
4. Now create pro ord , give your qty and date`s then sytem will show one pop-up window here u can select the production version .

How to select the Alt BOM in the Sub-Contract PO

Dear All,
please tell me how to select the alternative BOM in the sub -contracting purchase order.
for the above said requirement i have cretaed production versions and the BOMselction method also i have selcted in the material master data as "2" means BOM by produ ction version.
so how can i select the alt BOm in theSub-contracting PO.
Thanx in advanvce

Hi,
SAP help says you have to write the production version in the subcontracting info record:

Alternative BOM in Subcontarcting PO

Greetings....
How to select the alternative BOM in Subcontarcting Purchase Order,...

Dear,
You need to create new production version in the material master, need to assign the BOM for Alternate BOM in the production version. You assign this production version in the info record for subcontract.
Then it will work for you.
Please refer this link for details,

Alternative BOM selection in Subcontracting purchase requisition

Hi,
We have three alternative BOM for one semi-finished material.
We created production three production versions for respective BOM, and maintained the prod version in to subcontracting info record.
But without creating any production versions,
Can we select the BOM alternative at the time of creating subcontracting purchase requisition in ME51N,

Why do you want to select BOM at the time of PO creation ?
If BOM components differ based on quantity of finished product, then these FG quantity range can be specified in from-lot-size and to-lot-size fields of production version - and SAP will pick the appropriate PV based on PO quantity.
If BOM components to be provided to sub-contract vendor differ based on vendor, then specify that in the info record.

How can I select alternative BOM when creating subcontract purchase order?

In our business, a finish good material always has different production versions at the same time. Each of production versions has its own alternative BOM. When I create a planned order, I can select wanted BOM through specifying production version.
But, when I creating subcontract purchase order, there is no field for me to specify the production version or which alternative BOM I prefer. In this case, I need to create a planned order at first. And then, convert the planned order to purchase. Only through this way, I can create a subcontract purchase order with my wanted BOM.
So, I wonder if there is any way to select alternative BOM directly when creating subcontract purchase order.
Thanks a lot!
Regards
Robbie

Dear Mr. MM
can you give me additional information about your solution?
BUT I would not expect the sytem to offer you during the Purchasing cycle the different Production Versions as it is not meant to be. I remember having the same requirement some time ago and we solved it the way I described above, additionally we created a Pop up window with a user exit during the PO creation which offered the different production versions and if the one linked with the quota arrangement, the standard PV, is used in the PO.
We also have the same problem, we activated businessfunction SCM_GEN_02 so that it is possible to have several production versions for one supplier, but unfortunatly it is not possible to change the production version in the purchase order. (business function does not seem to be very integrated)
So i would be very interested in your solution because acually it seems that i have to modify the sap standard.
Thank you and best regards

Alternative bom selection

hello,
i want solution for alternative bom selection.
for eg.
i have material say X00100 which has two alternative components
                            A00100
                            B00100
now, i have to mapped the scinario that .the product pick the material   A00100
first & if there is no stock then it will pick the material   B00100
please give the solution
marks are sure

Hi,
Try using this concept.
In BOM alternative items are assigned to alternative item group on the general
data.
In the production order in the general data tab page.
We can define the alternative items based on priority , strategy and usage probability.
Priority:
This defines the priority of the item within the alternative item group.
This determines the priority of planned withdrawls of items.
EX Two items are assigned to alternative item group
item A Priority 1
item B Priority 2
The system reads the item A first.
Strategy:
use the strategy to determine how the planned withdrawl is controlled
within the alternative item group.
The strategy should be same for all alternative items within a alternative
item group.
If the value 2( 100% check) is defined for the strategy the first material in
the defined priority sequence for which sufficient quantities are available
are reserved.
If value 1 is used( manual maintainence/ usage probability) depending upon the
availability you can manually with draw components.
Usage Probability:
MRP Plans these alternative material components according to probability
of use.Material requirements for BOM Components are planned according
to usage probability.
The planned withdrawls for the production order are based on the
reservation lists.These lists are based on the priority and strategy.

Now i m tried with the following code,i m getting as one (Alternative BOM) for one ff record,by replacing one by one.
But i want as vertically under one (Alternative BOM).
Can anyone help me to overcome this.

Hi Dilip,
Please change your code.
I request you to please go through BDC tutorials before even starting to write the program.
There are many online tutorials which can help you with.
Also, search in SDN.. there you will get more than thousand results.. with the search term BDC.
Take this suggestion seriously before nayone reports the moderators that u have been posting this thread daily without taking into consideration the previous replies.

Subcontract PO item withdrawal issue when alternative BOM item used

Hi,
As title mentioned, when we issue alternative material for a subcontract PO in BOM, but it still shows the quantity from primary item.
(For example, we have a product, let's say it as Product-A, it's combined by material-B1 and Material-C1
And the BOM for Product-A for item material-B1 has an alternative item, material-B2
Now the issue is when we issue material-B2 instead B1, but the PO usage/withdrawal listed in B1)
Because we are making a list for China custom for material usage, the issue listed above makes our list not available for custom department.
Please let us know how we could make the withdrawal in PO shows B2.
thanks,
Steven

Dear Steven,
As explained by our forum friend maintain this data.
1.Create 2 different BOM for the same header material with the respective BOM components.
2.Create production version for the header material using T COde MM02--->MRP4 view and click on prod.version,enter the same
as 0001,text as prod version 1,default valid from date will be the current date and the valid to date will be 31.12.9999.
3.Enter the lot size for which this prod version is valid and then in the alternative BOM select the BOM and save the data.
4.Prdo.version can also be maintained through C223.
5.Assign this prod version in the sub-contracting purchase info record in ME11,under prod version under purch org data(not sure
check this alone).
6.Likewise assign the prod version that is linked to the BOM to be picked for each sub-contracting vendor.
Check the results after MRP and revert.

MRP run including Alternative BOM & Routing in sequence.

Dear Experts,
My client has maintained alternative BOM & Routing for there In house production materials.He wants to execute MRP run which can include all BOM's & Routing in sequence. Like, first MRP run should check material requirements as per first alternative followed with second & third alternatives.
Regards,
Rajesh.

Dear Rajesh,
ur req is not possible in that way. coz MRP run select only one PV or BOM and routing at a time and if stock is not available then it will genrate the req.
You can try with this rather craeating an alteranative BOM create alternative group of material so when u run the MRP system will check the stock of first matrial and if short fall is there it will go for next.

Choose alternative BOM in batch input

Hi!
I'm starting using BOM alternative and I'm facing a problem. I have a batch input where I need to choose an alternative BOM, but the popup for choosing the alternative doesn't show up when in batch input mode.
Does anybody have a clue?
Regards.
Fabio Scaravelli

TAJUDDIN,
I think this thread is SD, because the transaction is VA01 (I forgot to mention it, sorry). The BOM usage is 5 (Sales and distribution).
I need to choose an alternative BOM among two ones. But when VA01 is ran in batch input mode, the popup for choosing the alternative doesn't show up and the first alternative is selected by default.
Regards.

Alternative bom

i have one finish product '' A '' ( say ), In one case to create '' A '' I require one raw materials as AA and one packing material as BB . Secondly to create "A" i sometimes require AA (Row material ) & CC ( Packing material ) . This dipends on my customer's requirement.
To takeover this problem I had created a production version as 001 & 002 in MRP 4 screen of material "A" & two alternative BOM as 1 & 2 ..But now while creating sales order by VA01 how I will come to know regarding BOM selection which will indicate my customers packing requirement.

Hi abhijeet
In production version and Alternate BOM. You have to *differentiate between PV 1 & PV 2 by header quantity ( say 0 - 500 for first 501 - 100000 )* or by Validity date. Then only the system will pick automatically the required BOM.
Otherwise you have to manually select the BOM. By doing setting in OPL8 order type dependent parameter ( PV selection Manual ).
Note
This will work only for manual creation of prod order in CO 01.
Hope this is clear

Error in creating Alternative BOM using IDOC_INPUT_BOMMAT

Hi all,
I am trying to create an Alternative BOM using IDoc BOMMAT03.I have checked this IDoc will use FM IDOC_INPUT_BOMMAT inside.
In this function module, it is using FM CSAP_MAT_BOM_CREATE and CSAP_MAT_BOM_MAINTAIN to create and change.
This FM is allowing to create an Alterative BOM = '01' but it is not creating for Alt BOM = '02'.
Can anyone provide inputs on this .
Regards
