    The document discusses bills of material (BOM) for empties in SAP Beverage. It describes BOM type 7 as a special empties BOM that is independent of sales BOMs, plant-independent, and integrated into purchasing, inventory, and logistics processes. The empties BOM contains the full product in the header and assigned empty materials as components, and can have different units of measure like pallets and crates in the header.

    Bill of Material for Empties

    Definition
    The bill of material for empties (or empties BOM, category 7 in SAP Beverage) defines the
    assignment between full product and empties. The empties BOM is a special form of the bill of
    material.

    Properties of empties BOM category 7:

    • It is independent of the sales BOM.


    • It is also called a group BOM, as it is plant-independent.

    • It contains alternate units of measure in the BOM header of the full product (different
    BOMs for pallets and crates, for example).
    • It is integrated in purchasing, inventory management, physical inventory, and logistics
    invoice verification (automatic BOM explosion).
    • In empties BOM category 7, the empties remain an independent material (and therefore
    have their own info records, condition techniques, evaluations, inventory management,
    account assignment, and so on).
    • The evaluation of vendor deposits is performed using separate info structures.
    • Empties can be treated as a valuated (current assets) or nonvaluated (fixed assets)
    material.

    • It provides an overview of the stocks of tied and untied empties at plant and storage
    location level.

    The empties management uses two different types of bills of material:

    Type 5 (SD BOM)

    This type of bill of material is part of standard SAP R/3. The BOM type is used in
    SAP SD exclusively.

    Type 7 (Empties Bill of material)


    We recommend: Work with the bill of material type 7 of SAP Beverage in empties
    management in order to fully use the component. Using this type of bill of
    material guarantees that the data is generally transferred from SAP MM to SAP
    SD.

    Structure
    The BOM components represent a supplement to the BOM header

    • The BOM header represents the actual goods


    • The BOM components are the assigned empties material
    The bills of material for empties have a separate unit of measure in the header, in contrast to the
    standard BOMs 1 (production) and 5 (sales). This means, for example, that you can manage
    different bills of material for a full product in "pallets" and the same full product in "crates". You
    have to define a bill of material for each unit of measure (bottle, crate, pallet, and so on) that is
    used in SAP MM and SAP SD. This means the selection during order entry in SAP SD is
    unnecessary.

    You can only define the empties BOM as a single-level BOM. This means no further nesting is
    possible within the list.

    Recommendation: To avoid incorrect BOM explosion by the system, always use


    identical base units of measure in a production order and the corresponding
    empties BOM.

    Integration
    The system automatically uses BOM category 7 (empties) during order entry in SAP SD.

    When you create bills of material with different usage categories, it does not
    matter which ones you create first.
    Please note the priorities in the sequence of BOMs in Customizing.

    Example
    A bill of material can group together 10 liters of beer, 1 crate (frame), and the 20 bottles it
    contains.
