Help Document
Diagnosis
You want to extend a BOM by one alternative (see multiple BOM). This is not possible for one of the following reasons.
- Since this BOM is a variant BOM this is no longer possible.
- You cannot create any alternatives in your system because multiple BOMs have been set to inactive in Customizing.
System Response
The system cannot create an alternative.
Procedure
Check the material number and enter another material number if necessary to create a new variant.
Procedure for System Administration
Check whether alternatives are allowed in your SAP system. To do so, call up Customizing for bills of materials, and choose the activity Control Data for BOMs -> Set Modification Parameters. If the Multiple BOM is inactive parameter is selected, you cannot create any alternatives in your system.
