Issue in Sub Contracting Purchase Requisition Urgent!!!

[Former Member]

Hiii All,,

I have maintained a two BOM's for a finished material one for In House production and one for Sub contracting the components for the Two BOM's are different.

i have maintained Two Versions for the finished material also.

when i covnvert a planned Order to an Sub Contracting Purchase Requisition alternate BOM doesnt explode. i have also maintained a production version in the Purchase info record. Still the main BOM explodes.

i have to manually change the planned order and give the other production version ie not the Inhouse BOM.

After creating the PR then again i have to go planned order and change to the normal InHouse BOM.

Please Provide me the solution.

Thanx & Regards,

Hi Kumar,

BOM explosion occurs during MRP run and when you convert into purchase requisition.

If you are using procurement type "X", then logically system does not know whether you will be producing inhouse or go for external procurement.

You may consider to go for MRP areas or manually re-explode the BOM as you are doing now
