BOM Usage and BOM Application

[Former Member]

Hai,

1) Is there a link between BOM Usage and BOM Application ?

If so, where we can exactly see the link between the two.

2) In Normal Routing (N), I am trying to Allocate Components. When I click on CompAlloc button I got a

Pop-up showing all the possible BOM usages of the Material given (like BOM Usage 1, 5, etc) along

with their Alternatives. I selected BOM Usage 5, but could not see any data for Allocation.

The message in the Status Bar is,

No entry found for the specified filter criterion.

But, when I got to CS03 and display this Material with BOM usage 5, I could see all the components.

What is the reason behind this ?

Thanks

Hi,

In routing header, check up the usage mentioned. Maintain the usage as "3" in this field so that you can get the data as per your requirement.

This might be because of conflict bet BOM usage 5 and routing usage 1 . Try using usage 3 as mentioned by other member

But the BOM with usage 5 will not be expoded in MRP .

Hi,

• In BOM application we give selection ID,alt. selection(which overrides alternative selection from material master)

• In selection ID we give priority usage

Check the customization it will help u.
