• When creating a sales order with a BOM (Bill of Materials) material, the sub-items inherit the plant from the main item.
• After modifying the plant for the sub-items, the main item’s plant cannot be changed, and no automatic re-determination occurs based on the sub-items.

1. Enter the BOM number and don't press enter.

2. Enter the quantity.

3. Enter the plant manually.
