SUB CONTRACTING PO FOR MATERIAL HAVING ALTERNATE BOM

76 Views

Hi,

we are having following scenario for subcontracting process.

FIN1 material can be produced either from RAW1 or RAW2.

In PO for FIN1, in BOM assignment , BOM for FIN1 with RAW2 as sub component is assigned. But when thay want to make FIN1 from RAW1, system allows to issue RAW1 to subcontractor as it is maintained as subcomponent in alternate BOM of FIN1(not in PO) but while doing GR it gives message of " DEFICIT OF STOCK W. VENDOR UNR. 10 EA : RAW2 1000 O"

I thot that this msg is arrising as component RAW2 is not provided to vendor ( as it is maintained in PO a subcomponent for FIN1). So what I did , I added another item as FIN1 in same PO with sub component as RAW1, and then carried out the process, so it worked. But this makes confussion to user as there are severel items in PO, and to judge against which item he will hav to make GR.

So my question is, is there any setting or scenario in SAP to solve this issue?

Regards
