sales bom usage

[deepu_p2]

can some one explain me where sales bom is uned.

is there any chance where we can use it in a production process.

[rammohan_shenoy · Accepted solution]

I am aware of 2 uses. There can be many other usages.

1. Sales BOM can be used when SD users need to use it in Sale order for certain processes like sale order costing & pricing

2. It can also be used in Variant configuration if configuration is based on sale order BOM.

Please award points if found useful. Else please come back with more questions.

Thanks,

Hi,

The sales BOM represents a finished product which is assembled at the sales stage.here the both the finished product and the components appear as separate items in the sales order.

In Sales BOM you do not manage the finished product as an inventory item, but just a sales item. The components can also be sales and stock items

When you create the delivery to dispatch the customeru2019s order, the components are backflush issued from stock.

The components for Sales BOM must be sales items.

The Sales BOM is mainly used in the Retail industries than other industries.

You cann't use the Sales BOM for production purpose.
