Hello all,
we want to use a bill of material in sales orders.
To do so we use the “higher level item” column in a customer order.
The line items should be maintained as lower level items (item category “TAE”) und must not have any prices but should have a quantity for picking.
The “higher level item” is a kind of “dummy” material of position type group “ERLA”. This material should have the price and the quantity which should be invoiced.
In a delivery the lower level items have to be picking relevant, so that the delivery can be created and the stock of material can be reduced corresponding to the material requisition. Currently only the „dummy“ material can be picked, although it is actually without any stock. For a delivery like this always the lower level items should be picked.
From time to time the dummy material such as seal kits respectively its bill of material (lower level items) varies therefore we are looking for a flexible solution.
We have already done tests with material with position type group “LUMF” but this kind of material cannot be used because on lower level items quantity and prices are invoiced but no total (sum) is displayed on the dummy material which is the higher level item. Actually, in the invoice the quantity and the price should only be displayed for the dummy material. In case of material of position type group “LUMF” items are invoiced, however. This should not happen.
Actually we need a solution which combines the characteristics of both LUMF and ERLA position type group materials.
Maybe it is an option to customize a new “z”-item category and customize the item category determination accordingly.
Any suggestions and ideas are higly appreciated.
Thank you in advance
Markus
