Copy Customized Product Structure to Customized Structure (tipcs2231m000)

Use this session to copy a customized product structure, to a project to support the project engineering for customer order-related production.

 

Customized Item

An item produced on a customer specification for a specific project. A customized item can have a customized BOM and/or a customized routing and is normally not available as a standard item. A customized item can, however, be derived from a standard item or a generic item.

Note
  • Standard items are expressed in an item code.
  • Segmented items consist of a project code segment and an item base segment (the item code of the customized item). The segments an item can consist of are defined in the Item Code Segmentation (tcibd0500m000) session.
Copy only components valid for Effectivity Unit

Use Reference Date of Target Project

If this check box is selected, the reference date field is disabled as the reference date is derived from the target project. If the target project does not have a reference date, LN will select the system time.

Use Reference Date of Target Project

A user definable date that is used to check the validity of change orders and configuration entities such as:

  • User roles
  • Features
  • Configuration resources

In the case of effectivity control the reference date is checked against the effective date and expiry date. If the reference date is greater than or equal to the effective date the configuration entity is valid. If the reference date is greater than or equal to the expiry date the configuration entity is not valid anymore.

Copy Method for Product Structure

In this field you can choose to copy the entire product structure or only its first level, or to make the copying process interactive.

Copy E-Item Relationships

If this check box is selected, the E-Items relationships are also copied to the customized product structure.

Alternative Material

If this check box is selected, the alternative materials of the BOM components are copied as well. If this check box is cleared, the copying process ignores the alternative materials.

Use Up Material

If this check box is selected, the use-up materials of the BOM components are copied as well. If this check box is cleared, the copying process ignores the use-up materials.

Copy Product Variant Structure

If this check box is selected, the product variant structure of the customized source item is copied to customized target item. A new product variant number is created.

If this check box is cleared, the product variant structure of the customized source item is not copied. The product variant number of the customized target item is 0 (zero).

Copy all components and all effectivity statements

If this check box is selected, unit effectivity is copied from a customized product structure to another customized structure. You can fill in the unit for which you want to copy unit effectivity. Exceptions are copied for routings and routing operations that fulfill the date effectivity conditions.

Generate New Item Codes when Customized Item exists

LN generates new item codes when a customized item is filled in.

Ask before Generating New Item Code

If this check box is selected, LN will not generate a new item code until you have confirmed this action.
