BOM Returns

[Former Member]

Dear all,

I've created a quantity contract for a BOM Item and released the order and delivered the same and also created an invoice.

The Customer wants to reject one of teh component from the BOM.

My question is, how do I create a returns order for the component out of a BOM?

I tried it with order type as RE and tried to copy the BOM Item where it threw an error saying,

'Item 000020 is a component of a bill of material so cannot be copied'

Please let me know how to create a returns order for a component of a BOM material.

P.S. The BOM is priced at component level (ERLA).

Hii Rish,

Check the Itemcategory determination settings with respect to the Returns order RE with BOM combination or with component combination in the transaction VOV4.

If Itemcategory settings are not available do the settings then try.

I hope it will help you,

Hi,

I have checked the Item category determination settings for RE,

RE(Doc Ty)+ ERLA (Item category group)+ TAP (Higher LEvel Item) + REN (Default Item Category)

I hope this is how it should be.

PLease let me know.

Thanks & Regards!

Hello Murali,

The Items in a BOM are not getting copied when we create a retuns order with reference to the Release order.

The msg is

'Item 000020 is a component of a bill of material so cannot be copied'

Thanks

HI,

What is the itemctegory group of the component

Check the itemctegory determination is available with that itemcategory group

Check this combination also

RE (Document type)+ERLA (Itemcategory group)--->TAP(default itemctegory).

I hope it will help you

check the copy the copy controls in VTAF by giving source and target as f2--g2 and copy them adn rename the target one asRE and select the item cat TAN go to details and rename as aREN.

do not for get to check the box copy schedulelines& sales document flow.

raise a returns sales order and slect the billing document .

u can see the main item copied into the sales order . ucan kepp the subitems manually depending on the requirement as wht and how many goods that are returned .

please do revert back as whether if it has worked for u or not....
