Sales case2: Bills of Material in Sales and Distribution Exercise Objectives After completing this exercise, you will be able to: ? Create an item category group ? Create a sales BOM ? Create and assign item categories ? Create and assign schedule line categories ? Set up automatic purchase requisitions ? Test the process Business Example Your company, IDES, is a trading company that specializes in selling personal computers that are designed to meet your customer’s specific requirements. You obtain the components from a distributor who is in contact with producers in the Far East. The components are not ordered from the distributor until the customer has placed an order for the PC. This reduces warehouse stock and, therefore, capital tie-up. For you to be able to order the individual components of a PC from different distributors, requirements have to be transferred to the purchasing department at the component level. This means that one sales order could lead to several purchase orders. However, the invoice only contains the quantity that was delivered. Your customers are also able to purchase individual spare parts. This means that you still have to be able to price the components individually. You want to determine the cost for all components for statistics and controlling purposes. The delivery note and the billing document should contain both the PC and all its relevant components. An availability check is not necessary for the order because you procure the components directly from the distributor. Change the settings for a bill of material (BOM) in Sales Distribution so that it can fulfill all these requirements. Task 1 BOMs Save a PC package in your system as a single-level bill of material by using the materials created for you in the training system. 1.
