Hi,

First of all AFKO is table for Production Order Master Data. So it covers all data related BOM , Routing etc. So In order to distinguish material field related to BOM & Routing these two different fields are there in AFKO table.

PLNBEZ is the field for material assigned to routing operation

STLBEZ is the field for material which is part of BOM

Hope this clears your doubt.

thanks Tejas.

but there maybe many sub-components in a BOM and how can the system just chooses one of them and gives it to a single field STLBEZ ? another proof is these two fields usually have the same value,so maybe STLBEZ is not a component of a BOM.

maybe the value of field STLBEZ stands for the material which can replace the material PLNBEZ?
