BOMBOS transfer - Error: Invalid reference value in field Validity Area

[former_member692822]

Hi Experts,

When I run R_EHPRC_BOMBOS_START_PV for BOMBOS transfer, it returns the error:

> Invalid reference value in field Validity Area

> The required entry field 'Validity Area' is not filled

I cannot find in customization where can I correct this, neither any threads about how to solve.

Can you please give any help?

Regards,

Sónia

Hello,

I am not finding any way to exclude the package material. Any hint?

Thank you

Hello

please try to explain better your topic. This is my assumption:

A BOM contains a "header" material and 1:N source materials. These materials can have a different "material types" (and some of the material numbers are therefore not of interest for BOMBOS transfer).

As we do not use R_EHPRC_BOMBOS_START_PV i can only explain the "EHS classic" approach

Internally (as part of overall ABAP process) you can exchange the used function modules by "own developped" one (i believe there is an user exit in place as well)

But potentially by defining additional customizing entries you can get rid of "unwished" side effects.

E.g. if the package material is of type "VERP"... by using customizing i would assume that you can define the "accepted" material types.

PS: e.g. refering to: https://consolut.com/de/supportportal/sap-online-help/sap-dokumentation/ansicht-dokumentation/?artic...

you find e.g. text as:

• Perform Checks

In the Specify Checks and Single Criteria Customizing activity, you can define the checks that are executed by default. If you select this checkbox, the default checks are executed for the product structure after the bill of material transfer (BOM-BOS transfer).

Hi C.B.,

Your assumption is totally correct. It's exactly that.

I am using R_EHPRC_BOMBOS_START_PV but I believe that for selection criteria in customizing it is simillar.

I think it's here I have do make the filter of what material types I pretend to transfer. I will try to exclude PACKAGING and SURFACE to see if result.

Thnk you,
