Hi!

The BOM item catg gets determined the way you configured. If you want the main item to get priced you need to maintain ERLA in MMR item catg grp. Where as if you want the components to get priced then use LUMF.

To get the mutiple BOM then you need to maintain the structure scope filed as B in Item catg - TAQ

Hi,

1) For the BOM to be exploded in the sales document the following customizing setting is required.

A) If the item category group is ERLA the item category of the BOM is TAQ, in the definition of which we have to specify the value A (Explode single level BOM) in the structure scope.

B) If the item category group is LUMF the item category of the BOM item is TAP in the definition of which we have to specify the value A in the field structure scope.

2) If the item category group is LUMF the system shows price for the components but not for the BOM item. For this the following customizing setting is required.

A) The item category of the BOM item is TAP which is not relevant for pricing, so the BOM item is not Priced.

B) The item category of the components is TAN which is relevant for pricing, so the components are priced

3) If the item category group is ERLA the system shows price for the BOM item but not for components. For this following customizing setting is required.

A) The item category of BOM item is TAQ, which is relevant for pricing, so the BOM is priced.

B) The item category of components is TAE which is not relevant for pricing, so the components are not priced.

While creating sales document to get the list of alternative BOMs in the definition item category of BOM item we have to check the field u201CManual Alternativeu201D
