Definition

For the creation of production process models (PPMs) in SAP APO, BOMs and routing or recipes from the production version of the material master are exploded and converted in the ERP system into the corresponding PPM structures. This explosion occurs with reference to key date, so that for a production version in the ERP system there can only be one validity period for BOMs and routing in the SAP APO PPM. Using this indicator you can control with which date the BOM and routing explosion occurs in the ERP system.

There are 4 possibilities to choose from:

  • Explosion according the selection date entered
  • Explosion according to the time of transfer
  • Explosion according to start date of the production version
  • Explosion according to end date of the production version

If you use different validity periods in your BOMs or routing and wish to map these validity periods in SAP APO, you have to generate one validity period per production version and include this in your integration model.
