SIMG_CFMENUOLPSOS33 - Define Alternative Determination for Inventory Management

In this step, you define how the automatic determination of alternatives is to run from the point of view of inventory management.

For example, bills of material are automatically exploded for the defined application and the chosen plant in the following processing situations:

• When you create an order, network, or project, stock materials are automatically reserved.

• For a "goods issue with reference to a BOM", stock materials are automatically copied from the BOM to the goods issue transaction.

• If subcontracting is defined for the header material of a material BOM, the material is ordered as a subcontracting item in a purchase requisition, purchase order, or scheduling agreement. The subcontracting item can have sub-items. These are marked with a material provision indicator in the BOM item.
  When you create a subcontract order, the system automatically determines the components for the subcontracting item.

First complete step Define applications.

Enter an application for each plant.

Note:
You can configure alternative determination for inventory management only for plants for which settings for goods movement exist in the IMG for Inventory Management (Define default values).
