BOM Component changes when changes done in VC

[Former Member]

Hi All,

When ever we are changing the characteristic values in Variant configuration, it result the component changes in the BOM.

Please any body let us know how to find the what are the component changes in the BOM when we change any characteristic value in VC. Is there any FM or it will store in any table?

Hi Vasu,

I go through with your problem , the solution is 😆 YOu just go to the charecteristics which are going to change , open it into display mode (Checking purpose) and goto the menu" Environment -> where-used-List " OR Use CT12 what you have to do now just fill the charecteristic value(OLD) into the corresponding field , and check the desire object. In your case check the option "Object Dependencies".

Now you will get all the affected dependencies , now search the dependencies that used in your header material . and change the old value with the new values.

If this is not sufficent to solve your problem please feel free to contact me on

Sure Vasu,

Find explanation on this as below :

BOM components are selected by making use of a special type of dependency called SELCETION CONDITIONS.

If you want to find which BOM components will be selected on selecting which characteristic value, then follow the below given procedure :

1. goto T.Code CS03.

2.enter BOM header name , plant etc. and press enter.

3. now you are in inside BOM.

4. Select any BOM component for which you want to check when will it be selected during configuration.

5. then, in top menu , choose Extra --> Object Dependencies --> Assignments

6. It will display all Object Dependencies assigned to that BOM component.

7. Select the Dependency with type Selection Condition.

8. Click on Dependency editor.

9. It will show you the Dependency code

10. when the condition as per this code is satisfied, the component is selected during configuration.

Please revert back if you have any doubt.

Reward Points.
