Alternate BOM

Hi,

 

I am trying to create Alternate BOM with for a Header Material with the Component which is there in another alternate BOM,

 

Can someone suggest some RFC or BAPI for the same purpose?

    hi ,

     

    In this case you can use Mixed Costing. Here you can have two procurement alternatives defined for this material in t code CK91N and provide mixing ratio for each of them in t code CK94.

     

    In BOM , alternative items are assigned to alternative item group on the general data tab page.

     

    In the production order in the general data tab page.

     

    We can define the alternative item 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.

     

    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.
