How to enter material in the Activities.

[Former Member]

We have to enter materials in the 300 activities --different materials.

How can we achieve automation the process instead of attaching the materials manually to the activities in the system.

Hi

You can go through standard process of assigning the material components through BOM transfer program in tcode CN33 or use a program to upload the materials. You can choose BAPI_NETWORK_COMP_ADD in the program to upload materials to various network activities from an excel sheet.

Hi,

If you have excel sheet for materials against activities then you can take help of ABAP.

Hi,

Can use BAPI_NETWORK_COMP_ADD. It Adds multiple componets in a single call.

Dear,

For big amount of material assigned to activity you need to create WBS BOM by CS71 and assign component here and add reference points to line items and same reference point to activity after transfering the BOM by CN33 material assigned to activities as per reference points.

Hi

You can also avoid CN33 by running a program to pick components directly from WBS BOM and populating the materials to network using BAPI_NETWORK_COMP_ADD.

Hi,

Use the BOM transfer Functionality in SAP (TCode: CN33)

This uses the reference points in the activities and the BOM Components to identify each other.
