3803655 - Fixed Quantity changes to Yes when copying a text item in Maintain Bill of Material (F1813) - SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

• In the Maintain Bill of Material (F1813) app, copying an existing text item shows Fixed Quantity = No in the copy dialog, but after saving the BOM the copied item’s Fixed Quantity changes to Yes.
• The issue does not occur for stock items (item category L); their Fixed Quantity remains unchanged after saving.
• Users must reopen the BOM, clear the Fixed Quantity flag on the copied text item, and save again.
• No error messages are displayed.

1. Open the Maintain Bill of Material (F1813) app and enter edit mode for a BOM.
2. Select an existing text item (item category T).
3. Use the copy/duplicate function to create a copy of the text item.
4. In the copy dialog, observe that Fixed Quantity is set to No (checkbox not selected).
5. Save the BOM.
6. Reopen the BOM and check the copied item: Fixed Quantity is now set to Yes (checkbox selected).

• This is standard behavior in Component Supply (CS): when a new text item is created (including via copy), the system sets Fixed Quantity to Yes by default during save.

1. After copying and saving the BOM (which creates the new text item), reopen the BOM.
2. Edit the copied text item and set Fixed Quantity to No (clear the checkbox).
3. Save the BOM again to persist the desired setting.
