<b>PRST -> WBS to BOM link

STKO -> BOM header

STPO -> BOM items</b>

use FM <b>CS_BOM_EXPL_PSP_V1</b> for Project/WBS BOM explosions.

Hope that helps!

I can tell you a little about it, I ran into it some time ago on a brief project. The WBS elements are part of a project management system spans several modules in SAP. The basic idea is that a project may be broken down into many components and sub projects spread out over the entire enterprise. A project add new construction to a building for example will have a budget, construction costs, finance costs, etc. and involve resources and time from many different departments within the enterprise.

The WBS elements are the means by which activities these projects and their associated costs are connected to particular components of the project and to the project as a whole.

At least that's what I remember from 4 years ago.
