PR generation through BOM transfer

[Former Member]

Hi

We are facing problem in BOM transfer. After BOM transfer , system is generating two PRs for 1 material. In network component view , the material is appearing twice one with BOM item no 0000 and one with BOM item 0010. But material exists only once in BOM.

What may be the cause for this?

Hi,

Please check SAP note:739440 has any relevance for you.

Quote from the note begins:

"You assign a BOM to a using Transaction CN33. When reassigning the BOM double requirements are created in the network.

Other terms

CN33, BOM explosion

Reason and Prerequisites

The "Alternative BOM" field on the selection screen of Transaction CN33 is the cause of the problem. It is set partly on initial or on 1. This should not make any difference, however, in the further selection the already assigned BOM is not recognized and thus assigned again.

Solution

Implement the program corrections as specified in the attached correction instructions

"It is set partly on initial or on 1" - can elaborate on this. More over we do not have any alternative BOM.

Any ideas how BOM Item 0000 is created?

Does the material appear against two different activities?

If so , the referece point defined for the BOM transfer must have been defined for both the the activities.
