| Sales Order Bills of Material (tdsls4532m000)Note If the available-to-promise is
checked for a sales order line for which the Inventory Handling field is set to By Component in the Sales Order Lines (tdsls4101m000) session, the ATP is checked for all components that
are displayed in this session. If one of the components has insufficient ATP,
you cannot save the sales order line. In this way, the component's master plan
remains positive. Sales Order A unique control number assigned to each new customer order,
usually during order entry. A sales order number is often used by order
promising, master scheduling, cost accounting, invoicing, and so on. For some
make-to-order products, a sales order number can also take the place of an end
item part number by becoming the control number that is scheduled through the
finishing operations. Sales Order The number used to identify the position of the order line on
the sales or purchase order. BOM Position A reference number identifying a specific combination of
manufactured and component items in a bill of material. The position number is
subdivided by sequence numbers that are used to refer to usage of a component
between particular dates. Item The item code of the BOM component. Quantity The unit of measure in which the inventory of an item is
recorded, such as piece, kilogram, box of 12, or meter. The inventory unit is also used as the base unit in measure
conversions, especially for conversions that concern the order unit and the
price unit on a purchase order or a sales order. These conversions always use
the inventory unit as the base unit. An inventory unit therefore applies to all
item types, also to item types that cannot be kept in stock. | |
