Replacing BOM lines

You can replace several BOM lines, with selected BOM fields retaining their values and some BOM fields inheriting the values from the new component after the replace action.

  1. Select Basics > Styles.
  2. Open a style and click the BOM tab.
  3. Right-click on a BOM line and select Replace BOM Lines.
    The Replace BOM Line window is displayed. The BOM lines are by default arranged in ascending order according to the Sequence column. You can search for values in all columns in the list.

    Point at the information (the letter "i") icon at the left of the window title to view:

    • Fields that inherit the values of the new styles, materials, or trims
    • Fields whose values are retained when BOM lines are replaced
    • Calculated fields that are dependent on the Quantity and the Cost Price or Purchase Price field values

    For the list of fields, see List of fields involved for BOM replace action.

    For the BOM replacement configuration, see Infor PLM for Fashion Administration Guide.

  4. Specify this information:
    Replace with
    Select an item from the list. The list is filtered based on the existing hierarchy setup, so you can only see records to which you are assigned to in the hierarchy.

    You must replace at least one line before you can execute the replace action.

    Note: The dropdown only shows a maximum of 20 options and you must specify in the cell the Style, Material, or Trim record that you are searching for. This is designed to prevent any performance issues.
  5. Click REPLACE.
