Current Materials

Use this form to maintain this information for an item:

  • Material requirements (bill of material)
  • Costs (material, labor, fixed overhead, variable overhead, and outside costs)
  • Reference information.

The system uses this information as the normal method of manufacturing the item.

When you add a new material record, the system generates the sequence number automatically by adding one to the highest sequenced material for the current operation. After you enter or change the item, the system sets the Type, (Units), Cost, and Ref fields to default values taken from the Items form.

Note: If the ECN Use for Current BOM/Routings inventory parameter is set to All, you cannot add or make changes to current materials.
