Symptom
- In the SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition, during the process of copying a sales order to another sales order, the Bill of Materials (BOM) items are not being exploded and copied into the target document.
- This issue is specifically observed in the public cloud system during the "Copy Sales Document to Sales Document" process.
Environment
SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition
Cause
The issue is due to a limitation in the SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition where the BOM explosion during sales order copying is not supported.
Resolution
- Consider using Advanced Variant Configuration (AVC) if BOM materials are configurable. AVC allows for BOM components to be determined dynamically based on sales order characteristics.
- As a workaround, manually add BOM components after copying the sales order to ensure all required items are included in the target document.
- Submit a feature request via SAP Note 2963059 for consideration in future SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud releases.
