Abu Fathima,

You can enter the production version details in MD61 schedule line tab.

Use menu function Settings -> Production Version.

Hi Abu Fatima,

in MRP generated Planned orders for next month requirement check the dates. and try to create a manual production order with next month starting dete. and check which BOM system will select.

Thanks&Regards,

Hi

In Mat Master set the selection method by PV and give 1-500 in lot size for the 1st PV and 500-1000 for the 2nd PV.

So during MRP as Mat Master will have the preference, your requirement may be fulfilled.

Hi Abu,

go to os32 there enter your materilal, plant,BOM usage, alternate bom no. you enter the valid from date as 01.06.2014 and in alternate bom no as 2.

by this system automatically selects The alternate BOM for next Moth.

remember you have to delete the setting if you want to use the alternate 1 in future.

Hello Faisal,

Check the BOM selection method in MRP4 view and 'select by date' if you are using OS32.

Hi,

       You can resolve your issue by two ways , either using lot size procedure or using validity period.

    Case I:- Using Lot size

       You can use lot size procedure in production version in material master MRP 4 view. Kindly note that selection method should be

3	Selection only by production version

1.  Lot size  0 -500 lot quantity select first BOM in production version

2.  Lot size 501 - 9999 or 501 - 1000 quantity select second alternative BOM

This will be used for every time production process.

     Case II:- Using Validity period

If you are using this scenario for specific period then you can use this option of validity. Validity can be applied at different level like BOM validity or production version validity date in your case.

a)If you have use validity start date of second BOM from next month then it will not explode in current month for MRP to achieve this use selection method in MRP4 view in material master as follows

1	Selection by explosion date

b) You can also restrict selection of BOM for specific period using production version validity

Start validity of second production version from second month to avoid selection in current month MRP.

To achieve this use selection method in MRP4 view in material master as follows

3	Selection only by production version

Hope you will get brief idea of selection correct BOM in MRP.

Apart from this there are various different method depends on business scenarios you can adopt your best. For more details of other method see following

Hope above explanation will help you to resolve your issue.

Hi

You need to define the PV on the basis of Lot size or validity date also you can assign the PV in MD61 as suggested by Rajen, Maintain the BOM selection method as 2/3 in MRP 4 view.

Hi ,

You can set BOM qty from & BOM qty to in BOM header screen. for your case you can set 0 to 500 for alt 1 & 501 to 999999 for alternate 2.

Note that everytime there is plan order for more than 500 , it will pick up Alt 2.
