Check BOM Application (SAP Library - Product Cost Controlling)

Check BOM Application

In this menu option, you define the processes relating to automatic alternative determination.

Every process is represented via an application. You need this application in order to explode a BOM during order creation.

The alternative determination is controlled both by the application and the settings in the material master.

In the material master, you can specify in the field "Alternative selection" whether you want an alternative to be selected according to one of the following parameters:

order quantity

date

production version

Via the application, you specify the following criteria:

priority sequence for BOM usage (selection ID)

priority of a certain alternative for a special multiple BOM dependent on date

You can specify per application whether the settings should be taken into account for the alternative selection for multiple BOMs. These settings are only taken into account if you selected the alternative selection according to date in the corresponding material master.

take production version into account

If you selected the alternative selection according to production version in the material master, you can specify here for every application whether this setting should be taken into account. If this setting is not to be taken into account, the alternative selection is carried out for the corresponding material and application according to order quantity.

Indicator of the BOM status

During alternative determination, only those bills of material are taken into account whose status at least contains the indicators specified here.

Note

During order creation, the application is determined on the basis of order type.

Requirements
