Part usage in BOM

[Former Member]

Hi Gurus,

I have the following scenario in a material BOM

BOM "A" has 5 material defined in it as child

Item Number Part Qty

Item xx1.0 P (alternate) 1

Item xx1.0 Q (alternate) 1

Item xx2.0 x 1

Item xx3.0 y 1

Item xx4.0 Z 1

Item P & Q are alternate in the bom A and has 50% Usage probability defined in alternate group.

Requirement

When we post material A, only following parts are to be get back flushed

Part P - 50%

Part Q - 50%

Part x and y to the percent of part P i.e in this case 50%

Part Z 100%

Can we accomplish this by assigning x and y in different alternate groups (different than P and Q) and with usage probability 50% each? Suggested BOM is below.

Item Number Part Qty Alt.Grp Usage Prob

Item xx1.0 P (alternate) 1 99 50%

Item xx1.0 Q (alternate) 1 99 50%

Item xx2.0 x 1 55 50%

Item xx3.0 y 1 66 50%

Item xx4.0 Z 1 77 100%

Note:

In the BOM of Q , part x and y are linked, hence do not want to 100% linking in BOM A. BOM of Q is as below

Item Number Part Qty

Item xx1.0 P 1

Item xx1.0 x 1

Item xx2.0 y 1

Procurement type of

A is inhouse manufactured

PQXYZ are bought out items

Please suggest!
