Rule: For your debit memo request items, enter item numbers of the preceding document in ascending order. 

Example: Sales order 10060 is referenced, and its sold-to party is 10100006. You want to create a debit memo request with reference to sales order 10060 and the sold-to party of the debit memo request is 10100008.

4.2 Bills of Material (BOM) 

The following rules apply to creation of debit memo requests of document type DR with reference to sales orders. 

4.2.1 Only Main Item of the BOM Referenced 

Objective: You want to create debit memo request items with reference to BOM main items in different sales orders. 

Example: Item 10 in sales order 10060 is the main item of a BOM, and item 20 in sales order 10070 is the main item of another BOM. These items are referenced to create debit memo request items.

Example: In sales order 10060, item 10 is the main item of a BOM, items 20 to 40 are BOM subitems. These items (except item 20) are referenced to create debit memo request items.
