BOM Explosion Type & Selection Method !

[#1]

Dear Sir :

I have gone through several post on BOM Explosion Type & Selection Method and have the following questions :

1.     Tcode to define BOM Explosion Type is OS17 and then what is the Tcode / SPRO Path to define BOM Explosion Selection Method ?

2.     We assign BOM Explosion Selection Method in MRP 4 View of MM and where BOM Explosion Type is assigned other than BOM Item Detail ?

Actually, SCN says BOM Explosion Type is assigned in Plant / MRP Parameter. But i checked there, onle BOM Explosion Selection Method is been specified there ?

Thanks in Advance,

Dinesh,

I hope you understand the difference between BOM explosion selection method which is used to select the header material alternative BOMs based on different selection criteria which is maintained in MM MRP4 view.

BOM explosion type is basically used to explode the BOM in order to determine the dependent requirements in planning which is defined in customization of  Bill of Material Item Data Define explosion types:  and assigned to BOM item details only.

Actually, SCN says BOM Explosion Type is assigned in Plant / MRP Parameter. But i checked there, onle BOM Explosion Selection Method is been specified there ?

Now where did you see this information can you please post the source for same?
