Alternative component in BOM

[Former Member]

Hi all ,

Basically i need solution for the below scenario..........

1.FG -1 -

---

> COMP1 ( one of component for finish product FG-1 ) --- A-M1 (OR) A-M2 (OR) AM3 .

FG -2 -

---

> COMP12 ( one of component for finish product FG-1 ) --- A-M1 (OR) AM3 .

In the above case, there is a option to use alternative components for the COM1 or COM2 for the production of FG1 or FG2

respectively.

In which method i can use effectly to use the alternative components for production through BOM.

I checked the Alternative item in BOM , wile run mrp , system create the Dep remt for the all the alternatives, insteaded of one of the component. i donot want to use the Usge probability , since i need to use any of the component dep upon the stock.

Dear

If you are not interested in Alternative Item BOM group , then you have look around the following based on stock situation :

1.MM02-MRP4 view -Discontinued Indicator /Follow up material /Effective Out Date

2.CS02 -Select the Line Item -Goto Basic Data Tab -Hit Discontinued Tab

Refer :

Hope it helps

Hi,

Itried with Discontinuation part fr above case.

i asiigned A-M1 as discontiuaton part and AM-2 , A-M3 as following parts. and i used the parallel discontituation.

when i run mrp with requirement 1000, since no stock is there for the A-M1 , system create the dependent reqmt for both the A-M2 and A-M3 FOR 1000 each, but i need, sum of the dep reqmt should be 1000.
