Hi,

Material master is individual and one time activity. You can't link other material into material like BOM.  BOM explained like for FG material these are the components ---- it is link for business process.

You can do one thing , you can maintain in excel all BOM components and attach to Material at material master.

you can use attachment file in material master functionality for this.

Thanks for the Reply Ravindra

so what  I understood here

  • We can link One Material (as Alternate Material) to the material record at MM01 level.

  • but it is possible to link Alternate BOM component to one of the BOM component @ BOM maintenance (CS01) level and also while creating the Production Order ?

Thanks

First point ...

sorry you was understood wrong....

You can't link to material to material to in material master. for reference you can use attachment document if you want see what are the materials use ful for this material. attachment file as a normal file like ms-word , pdf, picture, ... just its information .

Second point..

  You can to link BOM components to header materials ( Mother components)

example material x and y is the components for Material A.

Means You can create BOM for material A , under this x and y is components..

if you want you can use in production order same.

If suppose under X if p,q are the sub components then you have to create BOM for X under this p and q are components.

when you are production order they is link like for Material A ----components are x and y

and For material x ----components are p and q..like you have to create separate production orders.
