Dear Experts,

Greetings!

Could you please let me know if there is any BADI/Enhancement to meet this requirement?

Scenario:

Lets say, a Material Number has got 3 BOM's available in the system.

And then, in the create Purchase Order screen user need to select the BOM by clicking of

Once you click on explode BOM

Present situation is-> it is showing only one BOM.  But the requirement is to show all the available BOM for this material. (in this case 3 as we said in the scenario).

Could you please help me with this?

It seems you've not referred my earlier comment.

Please check the SAP note 205454 - Documentation on subcontracting and refer the attached guideline for alternative BOMs.

Dear Rosh,

I have refered to your reply.  But unfortunately, as the note 'Cannot be Implemented' i thought to look for any other configuration/BADI suggestion.

The note contains a attachment, please download and read the process where alternative BOMs is explained in subcontracting process.

Are the configurations same for both Production and the Universal BOM?  If not, could you please share with us the configurations for Universal BOM (subcontractual PO).

Regards,

in short, subcontracting PO and selection of BOMs does not work the way you expect it, read the documentation and also countless existing discussions on that in SCN (alone the reference to the SAP note mentioned by Rosh A is already made in 38 discussions)

[former_member206394]

i totally agree with your point.

But there is little confusion that my functional consultant says it works only for the Production BOM but not for the Universal BOM.

Then he might need to read some more OSS notes like 715192 - Determination of BOM Usage when exploding BOM and 458606 - FAQ: Subcontracting in purchasing and all the referenced OSS notes tin those notes
