*URGENT -Alternate BOM selection in MRP*

Dear gurus
I have an urgent requirement regarding alternate bom selection.
our scenarion is complete subcontracting and no production versions are maintained and for suppose i have a product X which has 3 alternative boms during the sales order creation iam able to select the required alternative but during the mrp run the system is selecting the alternative "1" by default.I want that during the mrp run also the system should explode the bom which  i have selected during the sales order creation not the alternate "1".
please reply.

Kumar

Dear Dharma
in my previous post I havent got suitable reply from my previous post so i have posted again waiting for answers.

  • BOM selection during MRP running

    Hi,
       I have a question about BOM selection during MRP running...
       I have three production version and all of them are valid at the same time..I get a problem "no BOM data seletion" during MRP
    running..I suspect it is due to that I have three production version and MRP didn't know take which one..Can anyone tell me
    where can i config it or what's wrong with it in my situation?
       btw,BOM usage and stats are correct .so is the router data..since MRP is running well if i only have one PV..thanks..

    Hi Monst,
    Looking at the screenshots you uploaded, it seems that the validity of each of the production version is from 7.12.2011 to 1.12.2012.
    Please check whether for Planned order no. 36659 alternative BOM no. 1 is getting selected (Since BOM selection ID is 2).
    For planned order nos. 36660, 36661 and 36662, the start date is perhaps before 7.12.2011 and end date as we can see lies in the validity period of production version. Hence, neither of the alternatives of the BOM is getting selected.
    For verifying the above logic, please make the BOM selection method as 3 (selection only by production version) and run the MRP. I think MRP will get terminated in this case since no BOM will be chosen for first planned order.
    Just in case u need to select the BOM for planned orders, you can manually enter the production version no. in the planned order change mode.
    Please tell if this helps and revert back.

  • Bom selection in mrp

    Dear All,
    Can anyone explaine why MRP always selects the first alternative of Bom during MRP RUN?????
    Regards
    Prashant

    Hello Prashant Patil,
    If you have more than one BOM (Alternative BOM) and all are meetings (i;e. BOM Lot Size , Bom Status, valid area and period of validity, priority for bom usage in define order of priority of Bom ),  in  the required settings then the first Alternative will be selected by defualt in the MRP planning run.
    Hope clear to you.

  • Bom selection during mrp

    Hi, in oppq we are specifying the bom sel id as 01, pls explain how to see this sel id in bom for any fert material? how to link those.

    Hi,
    When you say you have 2 BOM's, are you referring to alternative bom's or bom usages ?
    If it is BOM usage, then OS31 for ID 01 decides which BOM usage has priorty depending on the application where it is being used.
    If you referring to BOM alternatives, then check the validity dates, the lot sizes of the 2 bom's. If they are identical & there is no difference between them, system by default picks the first valid alternative. But if you want to have alternative 2 picked, then you can work with production versions where you define version 1 with BOM altt. 2 & prodn version 2 with bom alt. 1. Set selection method in MRP-4 view to 2.
    System will then pick bom alt 2. Alternatively you can set the BOM status to 2 at header level for bom alt - 2 as suggested above.

  • BOM selection in the MRP

    Hello Gurus
       when MRP runs , what is the process of BOM selection. Are there any user exits to control the BOM selection.

    Dear Vidyadhar Reddy,
    For BOM selection you will assign the selection ID in T Code OPPQ --> under planning run -->
    BOM/Routing selection.Say suppose if you are assigning an ID 01and for this ID you can have many
    options using priority.
    Say SelID     SelPr     Usage     Usage text
            01     1     1     Production
         2     3     Universal
         3     2     Engineering/design
    So in This case the system seraches for a BOM with usage 1 production,if there's no BOM with this
    usage for production,then it seraches the BOM with the next priority say universal BOM and then the
    next priority for Engineering Design BOM.
    This priority can be configured as per your business requirement in T Code OS31.
    So the above is from configuration side and from the front end,
    1. Using BOM status - Active(01) and Inactive(02).
    2.Using Lot size and validity dates you can control the selection.
    So check with this and revert back still if you have more queries.

  • MRP Plan - Alternate BOM vs Substitute Component

    We have certain situations where ITEM B (length 5 in) can be used in place of ITEM A (length 3 in) in which just the amount cut off differs.  To be recognized in MRP planning and work order creation, should an alternate BOM be used or a substitute component?
    Is there a general rule of thumb that indicates when to use which feature?

    Dear PP watson,
    1.While giving the PIR's in MD61,after entering the values click on the schdule line tab page and then in
    the top menu click on settings--->prod.version,now against the PIR enter the prod.version whould be
    considered.
    So this will be considered during MRP run.
    2.IF 2 prod.versions exists for the same lot size and validity dates then the system always picksup the
    first prod.version during MRP run.
    3.IF you want the system to consider the second prod.version,then lock the first prod.version before
    taking MRP run.
    4.If quota is maintained in MEQ1,then as per this you will get the output in MRP.
    Points 2,3,4 is generally used if PIR's are assigned without any prod.version.
    Come back with your queries.

  • BOM selection in Prodcution Order

    Hi
    Need help
    I have alternarnate routings ( group counter 1 and 2)  and BOMs (alternate 1 and 2)
    for e.g. I have assigned Alternatte BOM 1 to routing GC1 and Alternate BOM 2 to Routing GC2 using component allocation in routings.
    But when I create prodcution Order and select the Routing GC 2 also system is picking BOM 1 buy default..why its happening..
    Could you pl share your thoughts on this nad help me?
    Rewards points will be given immediatly
    BR

    Hi SAM
    BOM explosion during MRP is based on the lot size or validity date. *Differentiate BOM from to lot size for both the BOM's.* Ex for BOM 1 from qty may be 0 - to qty 500, for BOM 2 from may be 501- to 9999999.
    Then the system will select automatically the required BOM1 or BOM 2 based on the lot size.
    If you maintain Both the lot size same. The systme will automatically select the first valid BOM.
    As you said Routing also selected based on the lot size.
    Otherwise as senthil said used PV scenario.
    Hope this is clear.

  • Concept of Alternate BOM in Process Order.

    Hi,
    We are having Process order Scenario & we watn following options.
    1.       Having 2-3 BOM of the same FERT/HALB with alternate Raw Materials.
    2.       Selection of Specific BOM for Process Order depending on the Availability / Requirement.
    3.       Creating Issue Slip / Reservation for the Specific BOM.
    4.       Issuing Material accordingly.
    5.       Booking consumption accordingly.
    Thanks in advance.
    DON

    Dear
    Please find below the answers of your question ;
    1.Having 2-3 BOM of the same FERT/HALB with alternate Raw Materials. ; Goto CS01-Enter Plant-Enter Material -Enter Usage and List down all the items in frist Alternative .Again to create Alternative 2 and so on , you need to go CS02 with same menu path -System will automatically take the Alternative 2  or you can copy Alternative 1 if you have similar items with additional new items..
    2. Selection of Specific BOM for Process Order depending on the Availability / Requirement ; As far as MRP is concern , BOM selection  and explosion of BOM for depdent , needs to have BOM Selection methods  Blank , 1,2,3 in MRP4 view .If you have maintained Producton version with all those aternative  with proper validity and lot size , then MRP will explode as per lot size and valididrt depeding on the order qty  or you can also create demand MD61 with Production Version based on the avalabity of BOM [MD61-Enter User parametes -Scheculie Tab -Goto Settings-Production Version -Enter PV with spefic BOM based on availablity ]   and then run MRP in MD02-NETCH ,3,1,1,3,2 .Howver , you can also select this production version manually while creation of Process order  based on the Order Type Depent Parameters in OPL8-Select Process Order Type-Goto Detals-Here Master data tab -Select Production Version -Keep it 1-Manula Selection .Remember , as sequence , MRP will select the frist PV listes in MRP4 view of Material master if it does not find proper lot size and validity.
    3.Creating Issue Slip / Reservation for the Specific BOM. ; Generally , MMD/Store will be given Reservation Number  and they will chekc in MB51 for open reservation for Goods Issue and carry out MIGO-261.Frosm Shop Fllor you can try Pick List  or you can print Process Order Print out in COP1 or MD4C print out also .Otherwise develope customs Forms as per the information permissible from you business to store .
    4. Issuing Material accordingly.; It will happen in MIGO-261 or automatcally based on Backflkashing in MRP2 view -Always back flash so that at the confirmation time in co15/c011 , you can automatically goods issue the material .
    5.Booking consumption accordingly ; It is Process Order Cycle from Releasing of Process order to till Goos Recipt of Process Order in MIGO-101.You can also use Auto GR based on the Control Key set up in Master Recipe which triggers the Auto GR.

  • Issue in Exploding Alternate BOM while creating Planned Order to PR

    Hiii All,,
    I have maintained a two BOM's for a finished material one for In House production and one for Sub contracting the components for the Two BOM's are different.
    i have maintained Two Versions for the finished material also.
    when i covnvert a planned Order to an Sub Contracting Purchase Requisition alternate BOM doesnt explode. i have also maintained a production version in the Purchase info record. Still the main BOM explodes.
    i have to manually change the planned order and give the other production version ie not the Inhouse BOM.
    After creating the PR then again i have to go planned order and change to the normal InHouse  BOM.
    Please Provide me the solution.
    Thanx & Regards,
    Kumar Rayudu

    Hi
    In order to explode your alt BOM in your PR do the following.
    1. Maintian alt BOM
    2.Maintain a Version using this alt BOM only. Do not select any routing /rcp group.
    3.Give this Version name in your Inforecord (ME11).
    4.Set the "MRP" field as "Record Relevant to MRP " in your Source List for the material.
    5.In the material master, select the procurement type (MRP2) as " X " ( ie, both proc types).
    I am sure it will work for you

  • Production order for alternate BOM and Routing

    Hi All,
             In my business(Discrete) scenario I have alternate bom and routing has group counters. some times i should use first BOM and First group counter. Then next Bom and next group counter. But lotsize is same( prodcution version how to assign).
    When creating production order i should select which ever i need.
    Regards,
    S.Suresh.

    >
    Hi,
    For your requirement you can define your Order Type Dependent parameters OPL8 as:
    Production Version : 1 Manual Selection of production Version.
    In this case every time when you creat your Production order System will ask for the Production version to be selected. You need to select the PV manually then only you can proceed further.
    This setting is applicable only when the Production Order is Created.
    It will not effect the Planned Oredr creation via. MRP Run..
    Hope this helps..

  • Alternate BOM in Sales order?

    HI Dears,
    I am in a Pharma Company and i have one product with same raw material but in a diff. pack means i have a material said A with raw material AA & Packing Material BB and second one said A with raw material AA & Packing Material GG. {The product is same but in different pack (For Exam. : Paracetamol Tablet in 10x10 pack and 1000's pack)}
    By useing Alternate BOM i creat the both products. But When i creat sales order (VA01) their are no any indication for alternate BOM (BOM version).
    Please solve my problem as soon as .
    Thanks
    Sameer Kumar Pradhan

    Hi,
    You cannot create alternate BOMs if your working with Order BOM in MTO scenario.
    If you have created alternate BOMs in MTO scenario and wants to select this automatically from MRP then define prod version or selection criteria of BOMs in MRP4 view in Material master and please remember that 'Dont create any Order BOM from CS61".
    If there is no order BOM created then MRP (MD50) selects the available Material BOMs. If order BOM is created then this only will be exploded from MRP.

  • While Create PO alternate BOM Issue

    HI All,
    While Create PO Iam not able to find alternate BOM which have mainained 1 2 3 BOMs.
    System is showing only 1 Deafule BOM Could please let me know how fix this issue.
    Alt BOM is Universal -usage and alternate 1 2 and 3.
    BR,
    Nagaraj K

    Hi Nagraj,
    If several alternative BOMs exist, there is no possibility
    of selecting the desired BOM interactively. Instead,
    selection can be controlled via the following mechanisms:
    - SELECTION BY QUANTITY:
      A lot size interval for which the BOM is valid can be
      entered in the BOM header.
      A prerequisite is that the Selection method indicator is
      not set in the material master record (MRP 4 view).
    - SELECTION BY DATE:
      Can be set in the IMG under Production -> Basic Data ->
      Bill of Material -> Alternative Determination -> Define
      Alternative Determination for Multiple BOMs (transaction
      OS32). A prerequisite is that the Selection method
      indicator the is set to 1 in the material master record
      (MRP 4 view).
    - SELECTION BY PRODUCTION VERSION:
      Can be used if the same material has different BOMs with
      different suppliers.
      You create different production versions in the material
      master record of the assembly (pushbutton in MRP 4 view)
        and assign an alternative BOM to the versions on the
      detail screen. You then enter the valid production
      version in the info record in each case.
    If NO selection mechanism has been defined and several
    alternatives exist, the FIRST one found is pulled.

  • Alternate BOMs and Routings

    Hello Gurus,
    I had a question. I have created Alternate BOMs and Routings for a Material. How through Configuration/or Material Master settings Can I control, as to when MRP derives result from Primary BOM/Routing or Alternative BOM/Routing.
    Thanks,
    Sachin

    Hi,
    For BOM selection, system will check BOM selection method in material master of MRP4 view.
    BOM selection by Lot size, Date, Production version & Only by prod version.
    Addition to that BOM selection by Selection ID defined in plant parameter. This selection ID consists of BOM priority & Usage.
    Manually you can not control BOM selection.
    For routing selection, system will check Lot size. If lot size not matched with required qty, system avoid the lot size & consider the date.
    In addition to that system will consider Task list type, priority, Usage & Status.
    In Order type dependent parameter(OPL8), you can configure whether system should select routing automatically or manually.
    Regards,
    Dharma

  • Exception Error Message (52) No Bom selected

    Hi
    a) I have created a simple 2 layer BOM ( level 0,1,2)
    When I execute MRP run, I get the expection message - NO BOM SELECTED ( 52) for the 2nd level material.
    Please advise.
    Parthasarathy

    Hi All,
    Checked following before I posted this question and there are no problems with them:
    BOM usage: 1
    BOM status: 1
    Valid from: September 2011
    Lot Size for BOM and routing: 1
    No deletion flags are turned on for BOM, material and components
    BOM item Production relevant: yes
    BOM materials are of same plant
    Rerun MRP: yes... does not help. quantity of VSEB and plan orders can change but the message 52 still remains and does not explode.
    This is only happening in my QAS system... production system with same material and information is ok.

  • BOM selection in sales order

    hello, friends.
    when selecting the BOM in the sales order, the selection screen displays alternative BOMs for 1 usage type only, and will show the other usages one at a time only if the first type does not exist.  the sequence depends on the priorities (access sequence) set in IMG, and settings in item category. 
    my questions are:
    1.  does the 'next page' button in the selection screen refer to additional BOMs of the only same usage type?
    2.  is it possible to show other usage types in the same selection screen? if yes, where do we configure this
    many thanks for your inputs.

    hello, Rags.
    actually, BOM selection is working fine for us.  my question was more of a theoretical one.  to clarify the issue, let me cite an example:
    1.  for material A001, i create 5 alternative BOMs. 
    2.  of these 5 BOMs, 3 have usage type SD, and 2 have usage type Production.
    3.  when you enter your BOM header material in the sales order, a selection screen will appear.  because of the priorities set in IMG, it will show you only the 3 alternate BOMs of the SD usage type.
    3.  the system will display the 2 other production BOMs only if there are no SD usage BOMs or if these have been deactivated, or if you change the order of priority in IMG. 
    4.  you cannot change the usage type in the BOM selection screen because this field is not available for input.  there are "next page" buttons, and i'm wondering if this is or is not just for long lists of alternate BOMs with a single usage type.
    my question:  is it possible to show all 5 BOMs regardless of usage in the same list, or in different pages?
    many thanks.
