Now one can attach a document to a BOM in one of the following three ways…

1) Attach document as an item in the item overview,

2) Attach document to an item and

3) Attach document to the header material.

1) Attaching document as an item in the item overview:

…go to the `General Item Overview' screen

…select the tab page `Document'

…enter item category `D'

…dropdown and select the document you want to attach

…the system automatically selects the respective document type, document part, document version and
document description

…the system also enters component quantity `1' and component unit of measure as `PC' by default.

2) Attaching document to an item:

…go to the `General Item Overview' screen

…select the particular item by F2

…the item all data screen appears

…go to tab page `document assignment'

…dropdown and select the `document type' you want to attach …dropdown and select the document

3) Attach document to the header material:

…go to header overview screen

…go to tab page `document assignment'

…dropdown and select the `document type' you want to attach

assigned to documents per object type.

…go to IMG -> cross-application components -> document management -> control data -> define
documents type

…select new entries and enter following objects…

…'STPO_DOC' and screen `257'(linking document to BOM header) …'STKO_DOC' and screen `258'(linking
