Additional component in Subcontracting

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have a simple issue with the subcontracting scenario.

I have a material with its components maintained. If some time I dont have one componenet available with me and want to procure from vendor.

I want to create such a subcontracting order where I dont have one componenet and want to procure it from vendor through the assembly of subcomponents.

Can anybody please explain me how to get this scenario in SAP?

If ther is any configuration required then pls explain.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Hi Ashish,

This is can be done in two ways.

1. If the sub-contracting vendor himself provides that component

In this case, add one more line item for that componentin the sub-contracting po with out item category L, and tick the SC vendor in the item details delivery tab, then do the gr for that component before doing GR for the assembly.

2. If you are procuring the component from a different vendor , then place a PO and give delivering address as of sub-contracting (SC) vendor, do GR that will be posted to stock at sub- contractor. Then you can do GR for the assembly.

There is no need to any customization, standard settings for sub-contracting will do. Check the automatic account determination settings for BSV, FRL and VBO in GBB.

Hope this helps you.
