Alternate bom items

Hi Raju!

     According my knowledge, Standard SAP doesnt fully support as you expect.  If you set first line item as 1,2,100 and same for line 2. System will check and pick up full for first line item, and 2nd line item system will list out as information, you can change it manually. Can not run as the way you want.

Hi,

The setting of the priority of an item within an alternative item group determines the sequence in which material components are reserved in the production order.

Strategy is to determine how the items within an alternative item group are selected for the withdrawal posting. Use the same strategy for all alternative items in an alternative item group.

Your requirement of withdrawal posting for ROH which has highest stock is not possible in standard system.

But

Strategies for withdrawal postings are supported with:

1) Withdrawal according to usage probability (manual changes possible) or

2) Withdrawal if availability is 100%

So in your case if 1st item is available 100% then the system considers only 1st

If it is not available then only it searches for 2nd item 100% availability

Hope you have understood the system logic
