Bill of Material
Overview
Introduction
This document describes for Bway the future standard planning processes and
their related SAP requirements for the manufacturing and assembling entities (=
plants and affiliates with an assembly activity) as well as eventual deviations from
the global template.
The production master data consists of work centers, routings, Bill of Material and
production versions. The Bill of Material data specific to production and planning
will be described in the bills of material process definition document. In this
document the process of creating and changing a manufacturing Bill of Material is
described.
This document serves as the basis for the set up of a pilot in the development
environment.
 Bills Of Materials
Bill of materials (BOM) is the term used to describe the "parts list" of components
needed to complete a saleable end-item.
BOMs are hierarchical in nature with the top level representing the sub-assembly
or end-item. For example the end-item BOM for a Personal computer would list
the computer at the top level, its major sub-assemblies (board, chassis, modem,
keyboard, display, etc.) as well as additional materials needed for a complete
saleable product –(shipping box, user manual, packaging, packaging labels, etc)
on the level below.
The BOMs that describe the sub-assemblies are referred to as Modular BOMs. A
bill of material can define products as they are designed (Engineering Bill of
Material), as they are ordered (Sales BOM), as they are built (Manufacturing
BOMl), or as they are maintained (Service BOM). The different types of Bills of
Materials are dependent upon the business need and use for which they are
intended.
A Bill of Material can be displayed in following formats:
 the single-level bill of material,

 indented bill of material,
 modular (planning) bill of material

Introduction - continued
Objectives By the end of this chapter, you will be able to understand:
1. How the Bill of material is created in SAP (CS01)

2. How the Bill of Material Change the BOM (CS02)
3. How the Bill of Material Display the BOM (CS03)
4. How the Multi Level BOM is displayed (CS12)
5. How Multiple BOM are displayed (CS14)
6. How to display a particular component. (CS15)
7. How a Mass BOM is Changed (CS20)
Prerequisites:
The following scenario-specific master data is required for this scenario:

 Finished Goods/sub assembly material Number to be manufactured
 Plant at which finished good material /sub assembly is to be manufactured
 Material Numbers of components to be added or changed in a Bill of
material
 Quantity of usage of each component (base qty. of 1000)
 Unit of Measure of each component (alternate unit of measures)
 Back flushing determination for components

Creating the Bill of Material Process (BOM)

Purpose:
This work instruction is used to create BOM by defining the components and the quantity of the
components.
Description:
A BOM can be defined as a formally structured list of the components that make up a product or
assembly. The list contains the object number of each component, together with the quantity
and unit of measure.
BOMs are used in their different forms in various situations where a finished product is
assembled from several component parts or materials. Depending on the industry sector, they
can also be called recipes or lists of ingredients and so on.
They contain important basic data for numerous areas of a company, for example:
 MRP
 Material provisions for production
 Product costing
 Plant maintenance
Prerequisites:
Input - Required Field Value / Comments
Fields
Key Date Date on which the BOM is edited or displayed

Group Counter This key and the BOM Group uniquely identify a BOM
Plant Plant to where BOM is valid

Use BOM usage – specifies the areas in which the BOM can be used (e.g. in
production or plant maintenance)

Note: When logging into SAP instead of this simulation, you will need to use your SAP user
name and password supplied by your company SAP Admin. If your company utilizes
‘Single Sign On’ then these steps are irrelevant as you are already signed onto SAP and
only need to choose the desired system from the list. Many of the actions associated
with the menu paths can be performed using icons, key strokes or using the mouse.
This duplication or redundancy is built into the system to meet the varying needs or
styles of the user. Some individuals enjoy using the mouse and menu paths, some get
used to icons easily, some desire keystrokes while others prefer ‘right’ click or ‘double’
