Hi,

You can use production versions to asign alternative BOM to sc-vendors, But, as per my best knowledge, you cannot set automatically which alternative BOM to use during planning run concerning one sc-vendor. Manually you can choose the alternative BOM.

Please check OSS note 458606 and this link:

If the BOM is determined trough validity date or lot size, I think there's no problem, you can do your settings.

Hi,

Which BOM do you use frequently put that in the BOM

the other BOM which you not that much after creation of the

sub contractor P.O go and change the BOM then only during

GR sub contract material will be deducted.

this is the usual practice we have followed in LIVE scenario.

Hi

In Standard SAP this is not possible of selecting the BOM's at the time opf SC Process.

If you have used the Special Procuremnt keys & maintained the BOM Then only the BOM whcih is maintained first is derived whcih is same as the Standard BOM

Thanks & Regards
