Where-used Assembly Parts (tiapl2521m000)

Use this session to display the engineering modules in which an assembly part occurs as a component.

 

Assembly Part

A component used on an assembly line.

An assembly part forms the link between Configurator and Enterprise Planning. Configurator generates the requirements for assembly parts and Enterprise Planning plans the production or purchase of the item.

Engineering Module

A virtual item that is used to model a fixed part of a product engineering structure in Assembly Planning in Manufacturing. The product engineering structure is used to generate assembly orders for the Assembly Control module of Manufacturing.

The engineering module is the top of a tree structure (BOM) of engineering items. If Assembly Planning generates the assembly orders, the Engineering Module item type is created in the Item Base Data tables in LN, if not yet present. The engineering module is part of the order content and the as-built structure.

Position

The position number of the line that contains the assembly part.

Sequence

The sequence number is a subdivision of the position number.

Assembly Line

The code of the assembly line on which the assembly part is required.

Company

A working environment in which you can carry out logistic or financial transactions. All the transaction data is stored in the company's database.

Depending on the type of data that the company controls, the company is:

  • A logistic company.
  • A financial company.
  • A logistic and a financial company.

In a multisite structure, some of the database tables can be unique for the company and the company can share other database tables with other companies.

Line Segment

The code of the line segment on which the assembly part is required.

Line Station

The code of the line station where the assembly part is required.

Net Quantity

The number of assembly parts required for the selected module.

Unit

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.
