Hi,

There are two ways to process a bill of materials in Sales. Once you have entered a bill of material in a sales order, the system runs pricing, inventory control, and delivery processing at:

1 Main item level if the material is assembled, or

component level if the material is not assembled

The type of processing is determined by the item category group(MMR-Sales: sales org. 2 screen).

In the first case mentioned above use the ERLA Item Category group then the system will carry out pricing, inventory control, and delivery processing at main item level, In this case the components will function as text items and are not relevant for delivery.

Whereas in the second case Use the LUMF as item category group then system will carry out pricing, inventory control, and delivery processing at the component level, . In this case, only the components are relevant for delivery. During processing the system automatically creates a delivery group.
