Processing EBOM Changes

Engineering BOMs can only be modified with this session if the following applies:

• The order status is Approved for Engineering.
• E-items have been generated using the Generate E-Items by MBC (tiedm3201m000) session, or modified with the E-Item by MBC (tiedm3122m000) session for the current MBC.

Changes resulting from MBCs are based on the most recent revision. If that revision is:

• Linked to an order, the MBC order status must be Approved for Engineering.
• Not linked to an MBC but is manually defined in the Engineering Item Revision (tiedm1100m000) session, EBOM lines must be present in the Engineering BOM (tiedm1110m000) session for that revision.
• Different from the revision in the Old Revision field in the E-Item by MBC (tiedm3122m000) session, Old Revision will be overwritten with the revision on which the change is based.

Single-level EBOMs are changed in two steps:

• The old revision of the E-item of the EBOM is copied to the new revision. (See the Old Revision field and New Revision field in the E-Item by MBC (tiedm3122m000) session.)
• The actions that you have indicated in the MBC Action (tiedm3120m000) session are performed on the new EBOM.

After you change the EBOMs, LN carries out the following actions:

• The order status becomes Approved for Production.
• The revisions generated by the MBC are automatically released (or manually released, in the Engineering Item Revision (tiedm1100m000) session). Automatic releasing is not possible for an E-item which has no relationship with items.
• If applicable the Number of Units, Length, Width and Net Quantity fields in the Engineering BOM (tiedm1110m000) session are filled.
