Class Item in BOM

I'm using Class Item (Item Cat: K) in my BOM, and I have doubts in the followings:

1. Can a class item be replaced by more than one material?

2. When I enter the characteristics in the header material, if there are more than one materials suits that, the system always pick the first one. Can I do the setting like: the system would prompt for user to choose among those suitable materials?

Pls kindly give some lights on that. Thank you.

Let me mention my situation in details:

Characteristic: ProductCat

Possible value: A / B

Class: Class200

only one characteristic ProductCat assigned

Three material assigned to Class200

SubItem1 (ProductCat = A)

SubItem2 (ProductCat = A)

SubItem3 (ProductCat = B)

BOM:

MainItem

-- Class Item K Class200

When I explode in t-code CU50,

Enter ProductCat B in MainItem, SubItem 3 is chosen.

Enter ProdcutCat A in MainItem, SubItem 1 is chosen. (Why not SubItem2 ???)

I can use "Find Object" button, then "Find in initial class" to choose SubItem2. The SubItem1 is then replaced by SubItem2. That's what I need.

Can I do the same when creating QT in VA21?

During the item cat BOM explosion in VA21, SubItem1 is always selected. I want to let user to choose SubItem2.

Pls give me some advice. Thanks a lot!

Dear Ken,

the issue you are facing is cause of process not because of SAP, if with a single values 2 components are possible to select you need to change this selection process , create one more characterstic which will decided between subitem 1 or sunitem 2

ex. CHAR_ADDITINAL_CHECK values could be SUB1 and SUB2 , assign this SUB1 and SUB2 to respective materials

When I explode in t-code CU50,

Enter ProductCat B in MainItem, SubItem 3 is chosen.

CHAR_ADDITINAL_CHECK = SUB1 or SUB2

Enter ProdcutCat A in MainItem, SubItem 1 or SubItem2 will be selected.

Check it out and come back for further discussion.

Hope it helps you.
