Dear all,

How can we restrict BOM main item explosion in Sales Order.

this BOM main item is having special order items which have to generate purchase requisition (item category - BANC),

Hi Raghu Ram,

The BOM explosion is controlled by item category.

In the item category configuration screen, under "Bills of Material/ Configuration", you can see "Structure Scope" field.

Select the one which is applicable to your case:-

"blank" - Do not explode material structure

A - Explode single-level BOM

B - Explode multi-level BOM

C - Configuration, no BOM explosion

D - Configuration, poss. with BOM explosion

E - Structure from Customer_Function (product selection)

Hope this helps

Regards,

Nicole
