{
"BillOfMaterial" : "123456789",
"BillOfMaterialCategory" : "M",
"BillOfMaterialVariant" : "1",
"BillOfMaterialVersion" : "",
"HeaderChangeDocument" : "",
"Material" : "SAPHEADER",
"Plant" : "1010",
"BillOfMaterialItemQuantity" : "1",

"BillOfMaterialItemNumber" : "0010",
"BOMItemIsCostingRelevant":" "
}

Cause

The Setting of the indicator 'Relevancy to Costing'  depends on the customizing in the SSCUI / Configuration Activity 'Define Default Values for the Item Status '

For example , The Usage 1 Production is defaulted to be Cost Relevant in the SSCUI / Configuration Activity

In case of creation of a new item if no value is passed for any of the item status fields then default values from customizing will be set.

If the costing indicator has been marked for a BOM Usage, then it will always be set.

In the sample payload specified, since no value is passed for item status and the Usage is marked as Costing relevant in customizing the "Costing Indicator" for item is filled

 

Resolution

In case you want to explicitly set it as blank, kindly use the workaround of PATCH call afterwards on the item
