Planning - Generic BOM (cprpd3140m000)

Use this session to to generate a generic BOM for a configurable item.

Note

The generic BOMs generated in this session are used only for planning purposes.

The CPQ Configurator Integration check box must be selected to use this session.

 

Main Item

The plan item that the planned order produces.

Site

The code of the site.

Related topics

Item Type

The type of the main item.

Allowed values

item type

Supply Source

The source that supplies an item by default. You can use purchase orders or schedules, production orders or schedules, assembly orders, or warehousing orders to supply an item.

The default supply source determines what type of order is used to supply the item, but in general, you can override the default and specify an alternate source.

Allowed values

Source

BOM Quantity
Position

The component's position number.

By default, LN shows the last position number used, plus 10. This procedure provides the sequence 10, 20, 30, and so on. The numbering of positions is unrestricted. For best results, you must use the default values so you can use intermediate numbers to insert components.

The maximum position number of a component item is 9999.

Item

The component item that is part of the manufactured item.

The components must be items of the Purchased, Manufactured, or Product item type. The component must be defined in the Items (tcibd0501m000) session.

Note

If the main item is of the item type Tool, components with the Tool type are allowed.

For more information on procuring purchased configurable items, refer to:

Item Type

A classification of items used to identify if the item is, for example, a generic item, a service item, or an equipment item. Depending on the item's type, certain functions will only apply to that item.

Operation

The operation for which operation the material of the BOM line is issued to the job shop.

  • If you enter zero (0), you can use the BOM Line - Material-Routing Relationships (tibom0140m000) session to determine on which operation the material is issued.
  • If you enter a value other than zero (0), for example, 10, the material is issued at operation 10. This operation applies to all routings that are defined for the manufactured item. If the operation does not exist for the manufactured item's routing(s), the BOM line material is issued at the first operation of the routing.
Note

To avoid entering the code of a nonexistent operation, you are advised use the zoom function for this field and select an operation from the Routing Operations (tirou1102m000) session.

Performance aspects

The setting of this field could affect system performance and database growth. For more information, refer to Material for multiple operations.

Warehouse

The warehouse where the component is stored and where the allocation for a production order is made.

Note

If the component is a phantom, and you select the Inherit Warehouse if Parent Item is a Phantom check box, LN allocates the requirement for the component in the warehouse of the component's parent item.

Effective Date

The first date on which the relevant standard cost takes effect.

Expiry Date

The date the bill of material (BOM) is no longer valid.

Planning Quantity

The planning quantity of a component in a generic bill of material is used in the Enterprise Planning calculation when determining the average requirements for this component, as a result of planned orders for generic items on a higher level in the generic product structure.

The Enterprise Planning calculation will incorporate this planning quantity (multiplied by the planning percentage) as the net requirement for the production of the generic manufactured item. The exact material requirements are not known during the Enterprise Planning calculation, because there is no customer for the generic item in this planning phase. As a result, a specific product variant has not yet been selected.

Planning Percentage

The planning percentage serves to perform a Enterprise Planning calculation, as does the Planning Quantity field.

Use Lead Time Offset

If this check box is selected, you can specify the lead-time offset.

Lead Time Offset

This field is only used by Enterprise Planning. When a generic item is planned, the start date of an operation is calculated by offsetting the requirement date of the generic item with the lead time offset. The finish date of the operation is determined by adding the planned production time. The planning percentage is used to determine the required work center capacity.

Phantom

If this check box is selected, the component item is defined as a phantom in the Item - Production (tiipd0101m000) session. You can use phantom items to record technical information about the product structure or to carry out standard cost calculations.

Note
  • If the component item is a phantom, you cannot define alternative materials.
  • If the Main Item is a phantom, a check mark is displayed on the header and derived from the Item - Production (tiipd0101m000) session.
  • If the Item is a phantom, the check box on the BOM line is selected.

Performance aspects

The setting of this field could affect system performance and database growth. For more information, refer to Phantoms.
