A bill of material (BOM) describes the different components that together create a product. A BOM for a bicycle, for example, consists of all the parts that make up the bicycle: the frame, the saddle, wheels, and so on.
Process Flow
When you enter the material number of a bill of materials that is relevant for sales order processing, the system displays the material that describes the whole bill of materials as a main item. The individual components are displayed as lower-level items.
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:
- Main item level if the material is assembled, or
- Component level if the material is not assembled
The type of processing used by the system is determined by the item category group that you enter in the material master record for relevant materials.
Processing at Main Item Level
If you want the system to carry out pricing, inventory control, and delivery processing at main item level, enter ERLA in the Item category group field of the Sales: sales org. 2 screen in the material master record of the finished product. This means that the components only function as text items and are not relevant for delivery. The following graphic shows how a bill of material is processed at main item level.
Processing at Component Level
If you want the system to carry out pricing, inventory control, and delivery processing at the component level, enter LUMF in the Item category group field of the Sales: sales org. 2 screen in the material master record of the finished product. In this case, only the components are relevant for delivery. During processing the system automatically creates a delivery group. The latest delivery date among all the components becomes the delivery date for the entire delivery group.
BILL OF MATERIALS (BOM): CS01, 02, 03
A Bill of Material (BOM) describes the different components that together create a product. The sub items of BOM along with header level item make up the BOM.
Easy Access- Logistics- SD- Master Data- BOM- Create, Change, Display.
Processing at Main Item Level: ERLA: in Item Cat Group Field in the Sales Orgn 2 of MMR. The system carries out pricing, inventory control & delivery processing at main item level. Sub item will be ignored.
Processing at Sub Item Level: LUMF: Sub items are responsible for pricing, inventory control & delivery processing.
Delivery Group: the sub items of a BOM may be available at different times due to the lead times in Procurement (MM) & Production (PP). Thus if a delivery group is assigned to the item category of sub items. The latest delivery date among all the components becomes the delivery date for the entire delivery group, which means that all the sub items are delivered together.
CS01 and Press Enter:
• Material: think centre
• Plant:
• BOM Usage: 5 (usage 5 indicates the BOM is relevant for S & D documents)
• Press Enter and You can fill in the sub items, which make the BOM.
ERLA: Item Category of Main Item is TAQ; Item Category of Sub Item is TAE
LUMF: Item Category of Main Item is TAP; Item Category of Sub Item is TAN
TAQ TAE TAP TAN
Relevant for Billing Yes No No Yes
Relevant for Pricing Yes No No Yes

When we are using ERLA for item category group it means we are trying to carry pricing at header level and the sub items would have item category TAE.
OR + ERLA -
> TAQ ( main item)
OR + NORM + TAQ (higher level ) -
> TAE ( Sub item )
Case II
When we are using LUMF for item category group it means we are trying to carry pricing at item level and the sub items would have item category TAN.
OR + LUMF -
> TAP ( main item)
OR + NORM + TAP (higher level ) -
> TAN ( Sub item )
So you need to change at item category but not Gen item categor
