Bom Component in Process Order

[Former Member]

Dear friends

I have following scenario to mapped

For producing finish product A, i need component B. Requirement quantity of component B is 1 ml for 1 Each of product A.

Component B is stored in 10 ml bottle and 10 ml bottle has to be issued for any requirement quantity upto 10 ml.

How to convert process order component quantity to 1 bottle if actual requirement quantity is upto 10 ml

Hello,

Maintain BOM with base quantity of 10 each, with component B with 1 bottle quantity.

Product A you can use the rounding values as 10 so that MRP will plan it in multiple of 10 EA and product B in same ratio. And then process order will be also in multiple of 10 EA then component B will work fine for good issue as bottle.

Hi,

Check below option

Irrespective of your product "A" production quantity - as per scenario you explained, either to produce 1 EA of product A or more: minimum 10ml of product B to be issued (nothing but 1 bottle).

According to this scenario - you need to mention the BOM as : for product A with base quantity 1 EA the component quantity of product B maintained as 10 ml.

When you create a process order - whenever you want to produce product A and if the production quantity is entered between "1" to "10" then take the help of ABAP customization to restrict the component B quantity allowed max as 10ml (and any entry greater than this is not allowed as per scenario you mentioned). If any actual quantity entered greater than 10 ml then you can restrict this during order confirmation and give error message if actual entry is not allowed more than 10ml.

Since the proportion of product A to B is 1:1 but product B needs to be always issued as 1 bottle =10ml then you need to go for this customization. Or else alternate UOM can be thought about which is not feasible here.
