Sales BOMS Over Super BOMS/Configured Materials

[selaskst01]

We have the following scenario. Material is a standard MTS configured over a Super Bom.

There is a need to create a Sales BOM to indicate materials (non stocked) that need to be packed and shipped to the customer. We are not charging the customer.

We have been able to create a Sales Bom over the material. A warning message 29/075 appears. Sales orders and delivery process successfully and normal.

Here is the issue. We don't know what we don't know. I have not been able to find any documentation that says this is not possible or recommended.

So, I am asking does anyone have any feedback to say whether this is an issue or not?

Thanks. The materials for these items are not configured in the sales orders. They are configured through the initial material setup in MM01. The sales order process treats these materials as standard. There is no product costing in the sales orders. The configure to order we do yes.

Your answer is very helpful.

Hello,

If everything is working fine then there is no issue with set process. Only make sure that sales order costing is working.

When you create a sales order item for a configurable material then you enter its configuration afterwards. i.e. you define the product structure. So, system is able to create a cost estimate for this product in the sales order ('Costing' function in transactions VA01 and VA02).

Configurable materials contain a super bill of material (BOM) that contains all the components needed to produce each variant of the material. When configuring a material, only those components and operations needed for a variant are chosen.
